Understanding Your SIP Returns

A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a disciplined way to invest in mutual funds. By investing a fixed amount regularly, you benefit from the power of compounding and rupee cost averaging.

How the SIP Formula Works

The calculation uses the following mathematical formula for future value of an annuity due:

FV = P × ({[1 + i]^n – 1} / i) × (1 + i)

  • P: Monthly investment amount
  • i: Periodic rate of interest (Annual rate / 12 / 100)
  • n: Total number of payments (Years × 12)

Example: The 10-10-12 Rule

If you invest $500 per month for 10 years with an expected return of 12%:

Metric Value
Total Invested $60,000
Interest Earned $56,170
Total Maturity $116,170

Why Use a SIP?

  1. Financial Discipline: Automates your savings habit.
  2. Compounding: The longer you stay invested, the more your money grows exponentially.
  3. Risk Mitigation: Since you buy more units when prices are low and fewer when high, you average out the cost of purchase.
