Corpus at different return rates
| Annual return | Corpus after 10 years | Wealth gained |
|---|---|---|
| 10% · conservative | ₹41.31 L | ₹17.31 L |
| 12% (used here) | ₹46.47 L | ₹22.47 L |
| 15% · aggressive | ₹55.73 L | ₹31.73 L |
Returns are never guaranteed — equity funds swing year to year and average out over the long run. Use a conservative 10–12% for planning and treat anything higher as upside.

Frequently Asked Questions
What will ₹20,000 SIP per month grow to in 10 years?▾
A monthly SIP of ₹20,000 for 10 years at 12% annual returns grows to approximately ₹46.47 L. You invest ₹24.00 L in total, and ₹22.47 L of that is wealth gained from compounding — a 94% gain on your invested capital.
How much does the return rate change the outcome?▾
SIP outcomes are very sensitive to returns. For ₹20,000/month over 10 years: at a conservative 10% you'd have about ₹41.31 L, at 12% about ₹46.47 L, and at an aggressive 15% about ₹55.73 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 ₹67.49 L — roughly ₹21.02 L more than a flat ₹20,000 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 ₹46.47 L worth in today's money?▾
Adjusted for 6% inflation, the ₹46.47 L you'd have after 10 years is worth about ₹25.95 L in today's purchasing power. Inflation is why equity SIPs matter — they aim to grow faster than inflation, unlike a savings account.
Is ₹20,000 per month a good SIP amount?▾
Any SIP amount works as long as it is consistent and started early. ₹20,000/month for 10 years builds ₹46.47 L from just ₹24.00 L invested. Starting earlier and stepping up over time matter far more than the exact starting amount.
Which mutual fund is best for a ₹20,000 SIP?▾
For long horizons (10 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.
