What is the minimum SIP amount in India?

Most mutual fund houses in India allow SIPs starting from ₹500 per month. Some funds allow as little as ₹100. There is no upper limit, making it accessible for everyone from students to high-net-worth individuals.

Is SIP return calculated on simple or compound interest?

SIP returns use compound interest. Specifically, it uses the geometric mean for monthly rates to ensure that one year of monthly compounding exactly equals the quoted annual rate. This 'power of compounding' is why starting early can significantly multiply your final corpus.

Should I use CAGR or XIRR to measure SIP returns?

For SIPs, always use **XIRR (Extended Internal Rate of Return)**. CAGR only works for one-time investments. Since SIP involves multiple cash flows at different dates, XIRR calculates the consolidated annualised return for all installments combined. Our calculator provides an XIRR-equivalent projection.

What is a safe withdrawal rate from a SIP corpus?

Upon reaching your goal, most experts recommend a **Safe Withdrawal Rate (SWR)** of 4-6% per annum via an [SWP (Systematic Withdrawal Plan)](/calculator/swp). This allows your principal to potentially keep growing or remain stable while providing you a monthly 'pension'.

How does inflation affect my SIP goal?

Inflation erodes purchasing power. If you need a target in today's value for retirement in the future, you actually need to aim for a much higher corpus (e.g., at 6% inflation, a target doubles approx every 12 years). Always use 'Inflation-Adjusted' returns or a **Step-up SIP** to counter this.

Can I stop my SIP during a market crash?

Mathematically, a market crash is the **best time** to continue your SIP. Since NAVs are low, your fixed SIP amount buys significantly more units. Stopping during a crash is a common mistake that destroys long-term wealth creation potential.
