Frequently asked questions
What return rate should I assume for an equity SIP?+
Nifty 50 has delivered roughly 11-12% CAGR over long windows. Most planners use 12% for large-cap funds and 14% for mid- and small-cap funds, and 7-8% for debt funds.
Is a SIP better than a lumpsum investment?+
A SIP spreads your entry cost over time, which reduces the risk of investing everything just before a fall. A lumpsum usually wins on paper when markets rise steadily; a SIP wins when the market is volatile.
Are the calculator results taxable?+
Equity mutual funds held beyond 125 days are taxed as capital gains; debt funds and SIP gains are taxed per your slab and the holding period. The calculator is pre-tax.
