Calculate the growth of a one-time lump sum investment over time, factoring in return compounding frequency, inflation, and capital gains tax.
Tips
Lump sum investments benefit greatly from long horizons, letting your money compound continuously. Choose the compounding frequency to match your specific asset (e.g., FD compounding quarterly, mutual funds compounding annually/monthly).
Considerations
- Compounding frequency of return
- Investment period duration
- Inflation rate adjustment
- Tax impact on final gains
Best Practices
- Stay invested long-term to maximize gains
- Compare different compounding frequencies
- Adjust expectations for inflation and tax
- Reinvest returns to maintain compounding
Plan your investments by combining an initial lump sum with recurring monthly SIP contributions, featuring compounding options, tax planning, and inflation adjustments.
Tips
Combining a lump sum with monthly SIPs accelerates wealth building. A lump sum gives your investments a strong head start, while monthly SIPs ensure regular savings and capture market fluctuations.
Considerations
- Compounding frequency of return
- Yearly step-up in SIP contributions
- Inflation rate adjustment
- Tax impact on final gains
Best Practices
- Start with a larger lump sum if available
- Step up your SIP annually to match salary growth

- Base return vs +1% return scenario
- Impact of 1% higher inflation
- Expense ratio differences in funds
Best Practices
- Choose low-cost investment options

Plan your retirement corpus and monthly savings needed to enjoy a comfortable post-retirement life, accounting for inflation, life expectancy, and investment returns.
Tips
Retirement planning requires careful estimation of expenses, inflation, and longevity. Use this calculator to find the ideal savings rate and investment strategy.
Considerations
- Current age and retirement age
- Life expectancy (85+ years recommended)
- Monthly expenses (70-80% in today's value)
- Inflation and returns pre/post retirement
Best Practices
- Start early; delay is costly
- Withdraw no more than 6% annually in retirement

Calculate how making prepayments on your loan can save you interest and shorten your loan tenure.
Tips
Prepaying a loan reduces your outstanding principal, which lowers the total interest you pay over time. However, always check for prepayment penalties and consider whether your money could earn higher returns elsewhere before making extra payments.
Considerations
- Prepayment penalty (2-5% for fixed rate loans like auto or personal)
- Your financial safety net (3-6 months of living expenses)
- Other financial goals (retirement, children’s education, emergency fund)
- Potential higher returns from alternative investments
- Tax implications (e.g., home loan interest deductions may reduce)
Best Practices
- Prioritize high interest loans (credit cards, personal loans) first
- Make prepayments early in the loan tenure when interest is highest
- Maintain an emergency fund before accelerating loan prepayment
- Use lump sum windfalls (bonuses, gifts) for prepayment rather than monthly cash flow
- Review your loan agreement for prepayment conditions and lock in periods
Step 1: Your Loan Details
Step 2: Prepayment Strategy
How often and how much would you prefer to prepay?
Find out how much a future sum of money is worth today, given a specific rate of return. Essential for comparing cash flows across time.
Tips
Present value (PV) helps you understand the time value of money. It's used in goal planning, bond pricing, and investment analysis.
Considerations
- Future amount, time period, discount rate
- Inflation-adjusted vs nominal
- Risk-free rate vs expected return
- Frequency of compounding
Best Practices
- Use realistic discount rates
- Compare investment opportunities using PV
- Factor in inflation for real value
- Apply to insurance payouts and annuities

Considerations
- Target amount, current age, Target age
- Expected post-tax returns and inflation rate
- Monthly SIP if started now vs later
- While accounting for retirement, keep 70-80% today's monthly expenses as expenses get curtailed post-retirement
Best Practices
- Start investing immediately, no matter how small
- Use step-up SIP to catch up if delayed
- Review regularly to stay on track
- Avoid timing the market
Plan for your child's future milestones like higher education and marriage. See how much you need to save monthly to achieve these goals smoothly.
Tips
Start early to leverage the power of compounding. Small monthly SIPs right after childbirth can accumulate into a sizable corpus by the time they reach college.
Considerations
- Education cost inflation is usually higher than general CPI
- Timeline separating education and marriage
- Expected equity returns for long-term horizons
Best Practices
- Assume at least 10-12% education inflation
- As the goal nears, shift investments from equity to debt
- Create separate funds for both milestones
