Can Rs 13,000 a month make you a crorepati?
Yes! A monthly SIP of just Rs 13,000 can help you build a corpus of over Rs 9 crore, thanks to the power of compounding. All it takes is discipline, time, and patience.
What is a SIP and how does it work?
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) lets you invest a fixed amount regularly into mutual funds. It automates your investments, deducting money from your bank account each month and putting it into your chosen fund.
Why you should start your Mutual Fund SIP early
The sooner you start investing, the more your money grows. A person starting at 20 can build three times more wealth than someone starting at 30—thanks to extra years of compounding.
What happens after 10 years of investing Rs 13,000/month?
If you invest Rs 13,000 every month for 10 years, your total investment will be Rs 15.6 lakh. At an expected return of 12% per annum, your money could grow to around Rs 29.1 lakh, giving you a capital gain of over Rs 13.5 lakh.
What does your corpus look like in 20 years?
After 20 years of monthly Rs 13,000 SIPs, you will have invested Rs 31.2 lakh in total. With compounding at 12%, your investment may grow to nearly Rs 1.19 crore, meaning you earn over Rs 88 lakh just from returns.
SIP magic after 30 years – Wealth building begins
In 30 years, your total investment of Rs 46.8 lakh can multiply into an impressive Rs 4 crore. That’s over Rs 3.5 crore gained without increasing your SIP amount—just by staying invested.
What happens if you stay invested for 33 years – Power of Compounding
Continuing your SIP of Rs 13,000/month for 33 years will take your total investment to Rs 51.48 lakh. But here’s the surprise—your money can grow to Rs 5.68 crore, giving you Rs 5.16 crore in gains.
Hitting Rs 9 crore: The 37-year milestone
To reach the Rs 9 crore mark, you’ll need to invest Rs 13,000 monthly for 37 years. Your total investment by then will be Rs 57.72 lakh, and your retirement corpus will be a whopping Rs 9.02 crore—with over Rs 8.44 crore earned in capital appreciation alone.
SIP returns need consistency, not timing
You don’t need to time the market. SIPs work best when you stay consistent. Skipping SIPs or withdrawing early will reduce your final corpus and defeat the compounding benefit.
