Star Mutual Fund SIP Calculator: how it works

A systematic investment plan compounds monthly, and the last few years of a long SIP contribute more growth than the first ten combined.

The formula

FV = P × [((1 + i)^n − 1) ÷ i] × (1 + i)

P = monthly investment
i = annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100
n = number of months
The final term assumes investment at the start of each month

Worked example

Worked example · ₹10,000 monthly for 10 years at 12 percent

Given

  • Monthly: ₹10,000
  • Rate: 12% per annum
  • Period: 10 years

Working

  1. 1i = 12 ÷ 12 ÷ 100 = 0.01
  2. 2n = 120 months
  3. 3Total invested = 10,000 × 120 = ₹12,00,000
  4. 4FV ≈ ₹23,23,391

Wealth gained: ₹11,23,391 — almost as much again as you invested

Why time matters more than amount

Extending the same ₹10,000 SIP from 10 years to 20 does not double the corpus — it takes it from ₹23 lakh to roughly ₹99 lakh, more than four times. The final years compound on a base that took the earlier years to build.

What the formula cannot tell you

  • Equity funds held over a year attract 12.5 percent long-term capital gains tax above the annual exemption.
  • Expense ratios reduce your realised return, typically by 0.5 to 2 percent a year.
  • Rupee cost averaging helps in volatile markets but does not eliminate risk.

Frequently asked questions

FV = P × [((1+i)^n − 1) ÷ i] × (1+i), where P is the monthly amount, i is the monthly rate and n is the number of months.
