How Does the SIP Calculator Work?
The Tata AIA SIP Calculator helps you estimate the future value of your SIP investments using a simple yet powerful formula. This formula calculates your potential returns based on the concept of compound interest, ensuring that your investment grows over time, not just from your contributions but also from the returns they generate.
The formula used in the SIP calculator:
The SIP formula is:
Where:
M = Maturity Amount (Total value of your investment after the specified duration)
P = Monthly Investment (The amount you invest regularly)
r = Monthly rate of return (Annual rate of return divided by 12 and then converted to decimal)
n = Total number of months (Duration of your SIP in months)
How It Works:
Monthly Investment (P): This is the amount you commit to investing every month.
Rate of Return (r): The expected annual rate of return is converted into a monthly rate by dividing by 12.
Investment Duration (n): The total time frame of your investment, expressed in months, determines how long your money will grow.
The Tata AIA SIP Calculator applies this formula to help you visualise how your monthly contributions will compound over time, giving you an estimate of your total returns at the end of the investment period.
By using this formula, you can confidently plan your SIPs with a clearer understanding of the growth potential of your investments.
