How much will ₹50,000 SIP give after 10 years?
At 12% annual returns, a monthly SIP of ₹50,000 grows to ₹1,16,16,954 in 10 years. You invest ₹60,00,000 and earn ₹56,16,954 as returns — a wealth gain of 94%.
Is SIP better than FD for long-term goals?
For 10+ year goals, SIP in equity mutual funds has historically outperformed FDs significantly. An FD at 7% would give you around ₹1,20,09,584 on the same ₹60,00,000 lump sum, vs SIP's potential ₹1,16,16,954 through regular investing.
What if returns are lower — say 10% instead of 12%?
At 10% annual returns, your ₹50,000/month SIP for 10 years would grow to ₹1,03,27,601. At 8% it would be ₹92,08,284. Starting early and staying invested matters more than chasing the exact return rate.
What is the best SIP amount to start with?
Start with what you can sustain consistently. Even ₹500/month builds the habit. The real power of SIP is rupee cost averaging — buying more units when markets fall, fewer when they rise. Increase your SIP by 10% every year (step-up SIP) to dramatically boost the final corpus.
How is SIP taxed in India?
Each SIP instalment is treated as a separate investment. For equity funds: gains held over 12 months are LTCG taxed at 10% above ₹1 lakh exemption. Gains under 12 months are STCG at 15%. For debt funds, all gains are taxed at your income slab rate.
