Retirement Planning: SIP+SWP combination; Rs 15,000 monthly SIP for 25 years and then Rs 1,52,000 monthly income for 30 years
Retirement Planning: Systematic Investment Planning (SIP) is a way to create a retirement corpus. It can be withdrawn in the form of monthly income through Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP).
Retirement Planning (SIP+SWP): Creating a retirement corpus is long-term planning. One creates a sizeable corpus by investing step-by-step, and instead of withdrawing this corpus in one go and paying tax on it, they can withdraw it in phases.
Similarly, the combo of Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) and Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) can be used to create a corpus and then withdraw that amount in the form of monthly income through Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP).
In this write-up, know how this combination can work and how with Rs 15,000 monthly SIP investment for 25 years, one can create a fund large enough to withdraw Rs 1,52,000 monthly income for 30 years.
How SIP helps create retirement corpus
A person starts SIP in a mutual fund(s) for a long term, such as 15 years or more.
They let the corpus grow and get the benefit of compounding.
In SIP investment, they don't need to time market.
To ensure that they need a consistent return, they need to keep revising their investment strategy.
How SWP helps withdraw monthly income
Once a sizeable retirement corpus is created, the investor can put that money in a liquid fund or anywhere where 6 per cent annualised return is possible.
Since one also gets growth on their SWP investment, they can withdraw much larger monthly income from the corpus than their SIP monthly investment.
