Mutual Fund Calculator: How to Build a Corpus of ₹50 Lakhs in 10 Years Through SIP

Mutual Fund Calculator: Ravi Prakash Ujjwal has two sons aged 12 and 8. He has enough investment for his elder son’s higher education but now he is planning to invest for his younger son’s higher education. According to his estimates, education inflation in India is around 10 per cent per annum. So, the cost of higher education which is approx 20 lakh today, will go up 50 lakhs when his younger son turns 18 – an ideal age when a child’s higher education begins.

How much monthly mutual fund SIP would Ravi need to achieve his feat? 50 lakh investment target in the next 10 years; Amit Gupta, MD, SAG Infotech said, “A 50 lakh corpus required from 21,000 22,000 per month in SIP if the person goes for 10 years (120 months) at an average rate of return of 12 per cent. One can also reduce the same SIP to 18,000 per month if the expected rate of interest will be around 15 per cent. The fund manager is always there to help create a better outlook for the investor and can show a good company to invest in. Some mutual funds offer more than 50 percent interest and some may incur losses. It’s all about the right investment and research. But going through the thumbs up rule, from 18,000 21,000 is the average SIP one can do for the desired corpus in the lowest possible scenario. However, all these returns are highly volatile and come at their own risk.”
