Retirement Corpus Target Rs 8 Crore: What should be your monthly SIP investment to achieve this goal in 20, 25, and 30 years? Know here
SIP investment to reach Rs 8 Crore Corpus: The Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) method is an effective way to generate a retirement corpus. However, one needs to start early to get the maximum benefits of compounding from the SIP investment.
SIP investment to reach Rs 8 Crore Corpus: You are a 40-year-old salaried employee who aspires to retire at 60. But you have just started your investment journey for retirement. Given rising inflation and expenses of lifestyle, liabilities, and loans, is a financially free retirement possible for you? It is not impossible, but for that, your monthly investment should be quite high, or should generate more sources of income. Had you started the investment journey 15 years ago, the same retirement corpus might have been created with much less investment. This is because the more number of years gives your investments more time to compound. You can understand more precisely with our examples of creating a Rs 8 crore retirement corpus with 20, 25, or 30 years of mutual fund SIP investments.

How early starters get benefits
Take the example of A and B. A starts a Rs 5,000 monthly investment at 30 years of age, and B starts at 40. Both get 12 per cent annualised returns on their investments, and each will invest till 30.
In 30 years, A invested Rs 18,00,000. Their estimated corpus in that period will be Rs 1,76,49,569.
In 20 years, B invested Rs 12,00,000. But their estimated corpus will be just Rs 49,95,740.
More example of benefits of early investing
Here, C and D set the target of Rs 5 crore corpus. C starts investing at 30 and D at 40. Both want to invest till 60, and both are expecting a 12 per cent annualised return on their investments.
The estimated monthly SIP investment for C to achieve that target in 30 years will be Rs 14,170, and the total estimated investment will be Rs 51,01,200.
But since D has 20 years to achieve the goal, they need to invest estimated Rs 50,100 monthly and estimated Rs 1,20,24,000 overall to achieve the same target.
Calculations for Rs 8 crore retirement corpus
We will take 20, 25, and 30 years as durations. We will calculate at 12 per cent, 13 per cent, 14 per cent, and 15 per cent annualised return.
