Lump Sum Formula

FV = PV × (1 + r/n)^(n×t)

FV = Future Value

PV = Present Value (Principal)

r = Annual interest rate (decimal)

n = Compounding periods per year

t = Time in years

Recurring Deposits Formula

FV = PMT × [((1 + r/n)^(n×t) − 1) / (r/n)]

FV = Future Value of annuity

PMT = Periodic payment amount

r = Annual interest rate (decimal)

n = Payment/compounding periods

t = Time in years

Retirement Planning

Know exactly how large your retirement corpus will be based on current savings and monthly SIP. Plan early for maximum compounding benefit.

Education Fund

Calculate how much your child's education fund will grow by the time they reach college age — with lump sum and monthly SIP together.

Home Down Payment

Set a target down payment amount and work backwards to know what monthly investment is needed to reach that goal in your timeline.

Mutual Fund Growth

Estimate the future value of your mutual fund investments at expected CAGR — for both lump sum and systematic investment plans.

Planning for a future event? Use this calculator to see how your savings grow and if you'll hit your target amount in time.

What is Future Value?

Future Value (FV) is the worth of a current asset at a future date, based on an assumed growth rate. It helps investors understand how much today's money will grow over time given a particular rate of return and compounding.

Lump Sum vs Recurring

A lump sum is a one-time investment that compounds over time. Recurring investments (like SIP) add periodic payments that each compound for their remaining period. The combined mode reflects real-world investor behaviour most accurately.

Why Compounding Frequency Matters

The more frequently interest is compounded, the higher the effective yield. Monthly compounding produces better results than annual compounding at the same nominal rate. Even small differences in compounding can compound significantly over long horizons.

Frequently Asked Questions

Present Value (PV) is what a future amount is worth today, discounted at a given rate. Future Value (FV) is the opposite — it tells you what today's money will grow to, given a rate of return over a time period. This calculator computes FV.

Use Combined mode when you have an existing lump sum investment AND you plan to add regular periodic contributions going forward — for example, an existing FD or savings balance plus a monthly SIP. This gives the most realistic future value projection.

Higher compounding frequency means interest is calculated and added to the principal more often — leading to a higher effective rate. For example, 10% compounded monthly is effectively 10.47% annually (EAR). Over long periods this difference compounds into significant extra wealth.

Yes. Select the Recurring mode and set monthly payments with a 12x compounding frequency to simulate SIP returns. Set the rate to the expected CAGR of your chosen fund. Note that mutual fund returns are not guaranteed — this is a projection tool.

This calculator shows nominal future value, not inflation-adjusted (real) value. To get real future value, use an interest rate that is already adjusted for inflation (i.e. real rate = nominal rate − inflation rate), or use our Inflation Calculator in combination with this tool.
