Retirement corpus for ₹30,000 a month in expenses, starting at 40

You'd need about ₹2.58 Cr by 60. Starting from zero, a SIP of ₹22,570 a month, rising 5% a year, would get there if your money earned an assumed 11% a year.

Retire at 55₹39,561/mo
Retire at 58₹28,110/mo
Retire at 62₹18,170/mo

At 6% inflation, ₹30,000 of monthly expenses today becomes about ₹96,214 a month by the time you turn 60. Your corpus has to cover that, rising every year, until 85, at an assumed 7% after retirement. Returns are not guaranteed and can be much lower. Your EPF, PPF and NPS balances all count towards it, so enter them in the calculator below to see a lower SIP.
