What is SIP?

A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) invests a fixed sum in a mutual fund at regular intervals — usually monthly. It automates rupee-cost averaging: you buy more units when NAVs are low and fewer when they're high, smoothing out market timing.

How to use this calculator

  1. Set your monthly SIP amount, the day of the month, and your start/end dates in Step 1.
  2. Optionally add an annual step-up — your SIP grows by that percent every 12 months, mirroring salary hikes.
  3. Search and select your mutual fund scheme in Step 2.
  4. Hit Run SIP Simulation — the calculator replays history using actual NAVs: each instalment buys units at the prevailing NAV, and you get total invested, current value, gains and the XIRR of the whole cashflow.

Instalments use the nearest previous available NAV for each date (markets are closed on weekends and holidays). The SIP day is clamped to the month's length (e.g. the 30th becomes Feb 28).

SIP taxation in India — the short version

Every SIP instalment is a separate investment with its own holding period. As a rough guide for units bought on or after 23 July 2024: equity-oriented funds held over 12 months face 12.5% LTCG above ₹1.25 lakh/year; shorter holdings face 20% STCG. Debt-oriented fund gains are taxed at your slab rate. Tax rules change — treat this as orientation, not tax advice.

Frequently asked questions

What does the step-up do to my returns?

Step-up increases how much you invest, not the return rate — but because you invest more in later years, it substantially grows the final corpus. A 10% annual step-up on a 10-year SIP roughly doubles total invested versus a flat SIP.

Which SIP date is best?

Over long periods the SIP date barely matters — studies repeatedly show the difference between dates is noise. Pick the date right after your salary credit so you never miss an instalment.

What is XIRR and why show it?

XIRR is the annualised return of irregular cashflows — the single number that accounts for when each instalment went in. It's the fair way to compare a SIP against a lumpsum or another fund.
