Power of Compounding: At 12% expected annualised return, how soon can Rs 11,000, Rs 13,000, Rs 15,000 monthly SIPs build Rs 7 crore corpus?
If you are curious how investing Rs 11,000, Rs 13,000, or Rs 15,000 monthly in a systematic investment plan (SIP) can grow into Rs 7 crore, let’s find out how the power of compounding and SIP play a big role in helping your monthly investment generate a sizeable corpus.
Building a large corpus might seem challenging, but the power of compounding can make it simpler than you think. By investing regularly through SIPs (Systematic Investment Plans), even small amounts can grow into a sizeable corpus in the long run. For example, if you invest Rs 11,000, Rs 13,000, or Rs 15,000 monthly at annualised return of 12 per cent, you could achieve a retirement corpus of Rs 7 crore. Wondering how long it would take? The answer lies in patience and discipline. Let’s understand how these amounts, combined with compounding and SIP, can help you reach your target corpus step by step.

What is SIP?
Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a process of investing in a mutual fund with a fixed amount, either daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly.
What is power of compounding?
The power of compounding is when your money earns returns, and those returns start earning returns too. For example, if you invest Rs 1,000 and it earns 10 per cent interest, you’ll have Rs 1,100 after a year. Next year, you’ll earn interest on Rs 1,100, not just Rs 1,000. The longer you stay invested, the more your money grows, making compounding one of the most powerful ways to build wealth.
What are benefits of SIP?
You can start investing with as little as Rs 100 a month.
No need for a lump sum; invest small amounts regularly depending on your choice.
SIP encourages regular investments and helps build a habit of saving.
What are benefits of compounding?

Start investing early
Even tiny investments can grow into large amounts in the long run, helping you achieve your financial goals. That’s why it’s important to start investing early. With SIPs, you can begin investing with as little as Rs 100 a month.
