Building a substantial corpus like ₹50 lakh requires consistent and disciplined investing. One of the easiest ways to achieve this is through Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) in mutual funds. By investing a fixed amount every month, your money can grow steadily with the power of compounding. You can use a SIP calculator to help you determine the exact monthly investment needed to reach your financial goal. 

How Much to Invest?

The monthly SIP amount depends on the expected annual return. Here’s a simple breakdown for a 10-year horizon:

Expected Rate of ReturnMonthly SIP (₹)Total Investment (₹ lakh)
9%25,837.8931.00
10%24,408.7029.29
11%23,041.6727.65
12%21,735.4726.08

For example, with a 10% annual return, you need to invest ₹24,408 every month to reach ₹50 lakh in 10 years. Increasing your expected return reduces the monthly SIP and total investment required.

Key Takeaways for Successful SIPs

  1. Start Early: The longer your money stays invested, the greater the compounding effect.
  2. Consistency Matters: Regular monthly investment is more effective than sporadic lump sums.
  3. Long-Term Focus: Equities may be volatile in the short term, but long-term investments reduce risk.
  4. Plan According to Goals: Align SIP amounts and expected returns with your financial target.
