Lumpsum Calculator
Estimate how much a one-time investment could grow to, based on an expected annual return.
One-time investment, compounded long-term wealth.
A lumpsum at 12% p.a. doubles roughly every 6 years — time in the market matters more than timing the market.
Worked Example — ₹1,00,000 at 12% for 5 years
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- This is a one-time investment — for recurring monthly contributions, use the SIP Calculator instead. A lumpsum compounds a single amount invested once. If you're contributing a fixed amount every month instead, the SIP Calculator models that correctly — mixing the two up gives a very different (and wrong) future value.
- The rate you enter is an assumed return, not a guarantee. Mutual fund returns are market-linked and vary year to year. This calculator assumes a constant annual rate for simplicity — treat the result as an estimate to plan around, not a promised outcome.
