Retirement Corpus Calculator; SIP investment: Retirement planning is important, but how much retirement corpus is enough for you? Or, will the 'enough' retirement corpus you are targeting help you meet all your retirement needs? Without a financial planner, it may be a difficult task for everyone to gauge the right retirement corpus. For now, let's make your job easy. Some of the expenses for a person's retirement goal can be monthly expenses; goals such as child education and their marriage, insurance policy premiums, travel plans, and money can suffice them for the rest of their life. This corpus should exclude income tax that an investor will pay on this corpus.
