About the Goal SIP Calculator

Start with a goal, such as a child's education or a house down payment, and find out how much to invest each month to reach it.

Enter the target amount, expected return and years. You will see the monthly SIP and the one-time amount that would give the same result.

Formula used

SIP = Target ÷ { [((1 + i)^n − 1) / i] × (1 + i) }. Lumpsum = Target ÷ (1 + r)^t.

Frequently asked questions

Should I include inflation?

Yes. Enter a target that already includes expected price increases, or use the Inflation Calculator first.

What if I cannot afford the SIP?

Extend the time, lower the target or use the step-up SIP calculator to start small and increase.

Is a lumpsum or SIP better for a goal?

If you have a large amount now, a lumpsum works. Otherwise a SIP builds the amount steadily.
