How can a SIP return calculator help you?
SIPs are a more lucrative mode of investing funds compared to a lump sum amount according to several mutual fund experts. It helps you become financially disciplined and create a habit of savings that can benefit you in the future.
Few of the benefits of SIP calculators include –
- Assists you to determine the amount you want to invest in.
- Tells you the total amount you have invested.
- Gives an estimated value of the returns.
How do SIP calculators work?
A SIP plan calculator works on the following formula –
M = P × ({[1 + i]^n – 1} / i) × (1 + i).
In the above formula –
- M is the amount you receive upon maturity.
- P is the amount you invest at regular intervals.
- n is the number of payments you have made.
- i is the periodic rate of interest.
Take for example you want to invest Rs. 1,000 per month for 12 months at a periodic rate of interest of 12%.
then the monthly rate of return will be 12%/12 = 1/100=0.01
Hence, M = 1,000X ({[1 +0.01 ]^{12} – 1} / 0.01) x (1 + 0.01)
which gives Rs 12,809 Rs approximately in a year.
The rate of interest on a SIP will differ as per market conditions. It may increase or decrease, which will change the estimated returns.
