SIP Calculator with Step Up

This calculator leads with the step-up field, because a fixed SIP that never grows quietly falls behind your rising income and inflation. It opens on a ₹5,000/month SIP with a 10% yearly step-up over 15 years — change any number and the calculator shows exactly how much extra corpus the step-up adds versus a flat SIP at the same starting amount.

Step-up raises your SIP once every 12 months — e.g. 10% turns ₹5,000 into ₹5,500 from month 13.

How to use this tool

  1. Enter your starting monthly SIP

    The amount you can commit to today — the default is ₹5,000, a common starting point.

  2. Set your step-up percentage

    A 10% yearly step-up means your SIP grows every 12 months as your income (hopefully) does — try 5%, 10% or 15% to see the effect.

  3. Compare against a flat SIP

    The result shows the step-up value next to what the same starting amount would grow to with no step-up at all, so you see the top-up's exact contribution.

Questions people ask

What is a step-up SIP?

You raise your monthly SIP by a fixed percentage every year — commonly 10% — instead of investing the same amount forever. Because the bigger later contributions still get years to compound, a step-up SIP can meaningfully outgrow a flat SIP with the same starting amount over long horizons.

How much extra does a 10% step-up add over 15 years?

On a ₹5,000 starting SIP at 12% for 15 years, a 10% yearly step-up produces a noticeably larger corpus than the flat ₹5,000 SIP — this calculator shows both figures side by side for your exact numbers rather than a rule-of-thumb percentage, since the gap grows with tenure and step-up rate.

Is a 10% step-up realistic?

It roughly tracks a typical annual salary increment in India, which is why 10% is the common default in step-up SIP planning — but set it to match your own expected raise rather than assuming it.

Does step-up change my mutual fund SIP mandate automatically?

No — most fund houses let you set up a "step-up SIP" or "top-up SIP" mandate directly with your broker or AMC, which increases the auto-debit amount on a schedule you choose. This calculator is for planning the numbers; you still need to set the actual mandate with your platform.

What if I cannot afford to step up every year?

Skip a year when needed — most platforms let you pause or adjust a step-up SIP without cancelling it, and even an irregular step-up beats a flat SIP over the long run, just by a smaller margin than the steady 10% shown here.
