Frequently Asked Questions
What will ₹15,000 SIP per month grow to in 5 years?▾
A monthly SIP of ₹15,000 for 5 years at 12% annual returns grows to approximately ₹12.37 L. You invest ₹9.00 L in total, and ₹3.37 L of that is wealth gained from compounding — a 37% gain on your invested capital.
How much does the return rate change the outcome?▾
SIP outcomes are very sensitive to returns. For ₹15,000/month over 5 years: at a conservative 10% you'd have about ₹11.71 L, at 12% about ₹12.37 L, and at an aggressive 15% about ₹13.45 L. Equity mutual funds have historically averaged 11–13% over long periods, but returns are never guaranteed.
What if I step up my SIP by 10% every year?▾
Increasing your SIP by 10% a year (in line with salary hikes) turns this plan into about ₹14.77 L — roughly ₹2.40 L more than a flat ₹15,000 SIP, for the same starting amount. A step-up SIP is one of the most effective ways to build a larger corpus without straining your budget early on.
What is ₹12.37 L worth in today's money?▾
Adjusted for 6% inflation, the ₹12.37 L you'd have after 5 years is worth about ₹9.25 L in today's purchasing power. Inflation is why equity SIPs matter — they aim to grow faster than inflation, unlike a savings account.
Is ₹15,000 per month a good SIP amount?▾
Any SIP amount works as long as it is consistent and started early. ₹15,000/month for 5 years builds ₹12.37 L from just ₹9.00 L invested. Starting earlier and stepping up over time matter far more than the exact starting amount.
Which mutual fund is best for a ₹15,000 SIP?▾
For long horizons (5 years), diversified large-cap, flexi-cap, or index funds are commonly used core holdings; ELSS funds add an 80C tax benefit. Category averages have been 11–14% over 10+ years, but past performance doesn't guarantee future returns. Consult a SEBI-registered advisor before choosing a specific fund.
