SIP Return Calculations: SIP Return Calculations: Everyone dreams of a large corpus post retirement that can help them live a good life and give them a sense of financial freedom. But the preparation of good time comes through efforts made during hard time. Similarly, the preparation of a corpus as large as Rs 5 crore can be started from the time when you work hard to earn. The condition is to save and invest that amount regularly. Even SIPs such as Rs 5,000, Rs 7,500, and Rs 10,000 a month can create a Rs 5 crore corpus. This can happen because of the power of compounding, which increases returns faster as investment grows older. Know how compounding can create high corpuses with small monthly investments and how Rs 5,000, Rs 7,500, and Rs 10,000 monthly investments can create a Rs 5 crore corpus.
