Frequently asked questions
How is lumpsum future value calculated?+
A one-time investment compounds each year at the expected return. The future value is the amount multiplied by (1 + annual return) raised to the number of years. This calculator applies that compound growth formula.
Lumpsum or SIP, which is better?+
It depends. A lumpsum puts money to work immediately, which helps in a rising market but carries timing risk. A SIP spreads investment over time and averages out market ups and downs. Use both calculators to compare for the same goal.
Are the returns guaranteed?+
No. Market-linked returns vary and are not guaranteed. Treat the expected return as a planning assumption and test conservative and optimistic scenarios.
Does this account for inflation or tax?+
No. It shows the nominal future value before inflation and tax. Your real, in-hand value will be lower once these are considered.
Is this financial advice?+
No. It is an illustrative projection for planning. Consult a licensed advisor before investing.
