What ₹10,000 a month in this fund would have grown to over each period, based on its past returns.
| Over the past | Total investment | Would’ve become | Growth | Returns |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 months6.40% absolute | ₹60,000 | ₹63,840 | 6.40% | |
| 1 year1.66% annualised | ₹1,20,000 | ₹1,21,084 | 0.90% |
Returns for 1 year and longer are annualised (CAGR); 6-month figures are absolute. Past returns are not a forecast.
How this is calculated
Each monthly instalment grows at the fund’s annualised return ÷ 12 per month until the end of the period, the same formula as our SIP calculator.
The amount compounds once a year at the fund’s CAGR for that period, the same formula as our lumpsum calculator.
