How this works

  • Year 0 corpus = Annual expenses × corpus multiple (25× rule).
  • Each year, monthly expenses grow with inflation. The corpus requirement grows at the corpus growth rate, less the following year's annual expenses.
  • Yearly SIP = Excel PMT(return, years, 0, −target corpus); Monthly SIP = Yearly SIP ÷ 12; Lump sum = Excel PV(return, years, 0, −target corpus).
