If you set a step-up, the monthly amount itself grows by that percentage every 12 months, so later years contribute more than early ones — this is why step-up SIPs pull ahead of flat SIPs so sharply over long horizons.
Equity SIP gains held over 1 year qualify for LTCG, taxed at 12.5% above a ₹1.25L exemption per year (July 2024 rules) — each SIP instalment has its own 1-year clock (FIFO), so early instalments turn long-term before later ones. Under 1 year is short-term, taxed at 20%.
Is ₹2,000/month too small to matter?
No — starting small and staying consistent, especially with an annual step-up, compounds meaningfully over a long horizon. The step-up field shows what increasing it over time adds.
Is this a simplified version of the real calculator?
No — it's the exact same calculator, opened with these values already filled in. There's no separate, simplified math happening on this page; everything below adjusts once you open it.
