Formula
FV = P × [((1+r)^n -1)/r] × (1+r)
- FV = Future Value
- P = Monthly investment (Rs5000)
- r = Monthly return (12%/12 = 1% = 0.01)
- n = Months (20 years ×12 =240)
Example: P=5000, r=0.01, n=240
FV = 5000 × [((1.01)^240 -1)/0.01] ×1.01 = Rs49.95L
How Rs5000 Becomes Rs1.76Cr in 30 Years
Rs5000/month for 30 years (360 months) at 12%:
- Invested: Rs5000 ×360 = Rs18L
- Future Value: Rs1.76Cr
- Gain: Rs1.58Cr (8.7x return)
Start early matters: Rs5000 from age 25-60 (35y) = Rs3.24Cr. Same from 35-60 (25y) = Rs1.12Cr only. 10 years delay = Rs2.12Cr loss.

If you increase SIP by 10% yearly:
- Normal Rs5000/month for 20y = Rs49.95L
- Step-up 10% yearly = Rs75L+ (50% more)
