How this is calculated

Each month's SIP is invested and compounds at 1/12th of your annual rate. 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.

Tax treatment

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%.

Questions
Is ₹5,000/month enough to build wealth?

It depends entirely on your horizon and goal — a longer horizon lets even a modest monthly amount compound meaningfully. Adjust the years and expected return below to see your own numbers rather than relying on a generic answer.

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.
