How it works

A step-up SIP starts at one amount and rises by a fixed percentage each year, usually in step with your salary.

The calculator raises the monthly amount once a year and compounds monthly at the return you choose.

Formula: Each year’s 12 instalments are P × (1 + s)^k, where k is the year (0, 1, 2…). Every instalment grows monthly at the yearly return ÷ 12 until the end.

Questions

How much more does a 10% step-up give?

On ₹10,000 a month for 20 years at 12%, a 10% yearly step-up gives about ₹1.99 Cr, against ₹99.91 L for a flat SIP.

What step-up should I choose?

Many people match their expected pay rise, often 5% to 10%. The calculator lets you see the difference each percentage makes.

Are SIP returns guaranteed?

No. A mutual fund’s return depends on the market, and past returns don’t promise future ones. The calculator shows what a steady yearly return would give, so you can compare amounts and time.
