🧮 What is an SIP Calculator?
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) Calculator is a free online financial tool that helps you estimate the potential returns from your SIP investments. Available on platforms like Angel One, it allows you to simulate and compare various SIP strategies by entering basic inputs like your investment amount, duration, and expected rate of return.
The calculator shows you:
Total amount invested
Estimated returns
Maturity value
While actual returns may vary due to market fluctuations, the calculator gives you a close approximation to help make informed financial decisions.
⚙️ How Does an SIP Calculator Work?
The SIP calculator considers three main factors:
P: Monthly investment amount
n: Number of months (investment duration)
r: Expected monthly rate of return (annual rate divided by 12)
It uses the formula: A=P×((1+r)n−1r)×(1+r)A = P \times \left( \frac{{(1 + r)^n - 1}}{r} \right) \times (1 + r)A=P×(r(1+r)n−1)×(1+r)
Where:
A = Final maturity amount
P = SIP contribution
r = Monthly interest rate
n = Number of installments
🎯 How Can a SIP Calculator Help You?
Using an SIP calculator can offer multiple benefits:
✅ Goal Planning
Estimate how much to invest monthly to reach a specific financial goal.
✅ Return Forecasting
Get a realistic idea of how much your investments could grow over time.
✅ SIP Comparison
Compare different SIP plans and investment strategies to find the one that fits your goals and budget.
✅ Time & Return Estimation

📊 Example: SIP Maturity Calculation
Let’s say you want to invest ₹5,000 per month for 5 years at an expected return of 12% annually:
Monthly Investment: ₹5,000
Duration: 5 years (60 months)
Expected Return: 12% annually (~1% monthly)
Result:
Total invested: ₹3,00,000
Estimated maturity value: ₹4,12,431.80
Total gain: ₹1,12,431.80
If you want a higher maturity value, you could either:
Increase the SIP amount
Increase the investment duration
Look for a higher return plan
🧾 Example: SIP Based on Target Amount
Suppose Mr. A wants to buy a car worth ₹5,00,000 in 2 years. He expects 12% annual return from his SIP:
Steps:
Target amount: ₹5,00,000
Time: 2 years
Expected return: 12%
Result: The calculator suggests investing around ₹18,353 monthly to achieve that goal in 2 years.
