How to Earn ₹1 Crore in Just 5 Years?

To achieve ₹1 Crore in 5 years, you need a high monthly SIP with aggressive returns (approx 15-18%). Example: At 15% return, required monthly SIP ≈ ₹1,18,000. Alternatively, combine lump sum + step-up SIP. For longer horizons, required SIP drops drastically.

  • 5 years (12% return): Monthly SIP ≈ ₹1,22,000 | Total invested ~₹73L → returns ~₹27L
  • 10 years (12% return): Monthly SIP ≈ ₹43,500 | Total invested ~₹52L → returns ~₹48L
  • 15 years (12% return): Monthly SIP ≈ ₹20,500 | Total invested ~₹37L → returns ~₹63L
  • 20 years (12% return): Monthly SIP ≈ ₹11,000 | Total invested ~₹26L → returns ~₹74L

Pro tip: Increase SIP by 10% every year (step-up) to reach 1 Cr faster. Use our 1 Crore Step-Up Calculator — contact Sanchay Karo for personalized planning.
