  • Go to 'Dashboard'.

  • Scroll down to find 'Tools and Calculators'.

  • Tap on 'SIP' calculator.

  • When the calculator opens, the following default values are shown:

    • Monthly SIP Amount: ₹15,000

    • Investment Time Period: 15 years

    • Expected Return Rate: 15% p.a.

    These values are for illustration purposes only and can be modified.

    • You can either:

      • Use the slider, or

      • Manually enter the value

    • Entered values must be within the minimum and maximum range shown

    • The selected value is displayed clearly above the slider

    • Any change made updates the calculation instantly

Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Enter Monthly SIP Amount

  • Enter the amount you plan to invest every month

  • This represents your regular SIP contribution

Step 2: Select Investment Time Period

  • Select the number of years you plan to continue the SIP

  • This also represents how long you intend to stay invested for this calculation

Step 3: Set Expected Return Rate

  • Enter the expected annual rate of return (%)

  • This is an assumed rate used only for estimation

Understanding the Results

The circular chart and figures below display:

  • Invested Amount – Total amount invested over the SIP period

  • Estimated Return – Indicative gains based on assumed returns

  • Total Value – Sum of invested amount and estimated return

These values change dynamically as you adjust the inputs.

Important Notes

  • Returns shown are indicative and not guaranteed

  • The calculator does not predict actual market performance

  • SIP returns may vary depending on market conditions

  • This tool is meant for planning and awareness purposes only

chevron-rightCost of Delayhashtag

The Cost of Delay Calculator helps you understand the financial impact of delaying your SIP investments. It compares the potential outcomes of starting a SIP earlier versus starting later, and highlights how even a few years of delay can affect long-term wealth creation.

  • Go to 'Dashboard'.

  • Scroll down to find 'Tools and Calculators'.

  • Tap on 'Cost of Delay' calculator.

  • When the calculator opens, the following default values are pre-filled:

  • Age 1 (Early Start): 20 years

  • Age 2 (Delayed Start): 35 years

  • SIP End Age: 60 years

  • Monthly SIP Amount (Both Scenarios): ₹5,000

  • Expected Return Rate: 12% p.a.

These default values are only for illustration and can be modified.

Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Select SIP Start Ages

  • Enter Age 1, the age at which SIP should have started.

  • Enter Age 2, the age at which SIP is started after a delay.

  • Both ages must fall within the permissible range displayed

Step 2: Select SIP End Age

  • Choose the age until which SIP investments are continued

  • This represents the investment horizon for both scenarios

Step 3: Enter Monthly SIP Amounts

  • Enter the monthly SIP amount for the early-start scenario

  • Enter the monthly SIP amount for the delayed-start scenario

  • These are treated as two separate SIPs

  • The SIP amounts can be the same or different for each scenario

By default, both SIP amounts are set to ₹5,000 for comparison.

Step 4: Set Expected Return Rate

  • Enter the expected annual rate of return

  • This rate is assumed only for calculation purposes

Cost of Delay Insight

The calculator highlights:

  • Cost of Delay – the difference in maturity value caused by starting the SIP later

  • Catch-Up Gain – the incremental wealth generated by increasing the SIP amount in the delayed-start scenario

Together, these help you evaluate the trade-off between starting early and investing more later.

What is Catch-Up Gain?

Catch-Up Gain refers to the additional wealth generated by increasing the SIP amount when you start investing later, compared to continuing with the original SIP amount.

It helps you understand how much increase in SIP may be required to reduce or offset the impact of delay.

Key Clarifications:

  • Catch-up gain represents incremental wealth, not guaranteed profit

  • It is an illustrative measure, not a recommendation

  • Increasing SIP may reduce the gap but may not fully eliminate it

Understanding the Comparison

The calculator compares two scenarios:

  • SIP Started Earlier (Age 20)

  • SIP Started Later (Age 35)

For each scenario, it displays:

  • Total Amount Invested

  • Estimated Profits

  • Maturity Value

Important Notes

  • Calculations are based on assumed return rates

  • Results are indicative and for planning purposes only

  • Actual market returns may differ

  • This tool does not provide investment advice or recommendations

  • Go to 'Dashboard'.

  • Scroll down to find 'Tools and Calculators'.

  • Tap on 'Inflation' calculator.

Step-by-Step Process

Step 1: Enter Current Cost

  • Enter the present-day cost of the expense you are planning for

For all inputs, you can either use the slider or manually enter values. Entered values must be within the minimum and maximum range shown.

Understanding the Results

Below the chart, the following values are displayed:

  • Current Cost – The cost today

  • Cost Increase – The increase due to inflation over the selected period

  • Future Cost – The estimated cost after accounting for inflation

These values update automatically whenever you change any input.

Example (Illustrative – Children’s Education)

Suppose the current cost of your child’s college education is ₹25,00,000 today.

  • Current Cost: ₹25,00,000

  • Time Period: 15 years

  • Expected Inflation Rate: 6% per year

Using the Inflation Calculator:

  • The estimated future cost after 15 years would be approximately ₹60–65 lakh.

This means an education expense that costs ₹25 lakh today may cost more than double in the future due to inflation.

This example is for illustration purposes only. Actual costs and inflation rates may vary.
