HDFC SIP Calculator

SIP, or Systematic Investment Plans, are popular investment options that allow you to invest a fixed amount of money regularly in a mutual fund scheme. Unlike lump-sum investments, where a large sum is invested at once, SIP involves investing a smaller predetermined amount at regular intervals. The intervals could be monthly, quarterly or annually.

Through SIP, you can take advantage of the potential returns offered by mutual funds across various asset classes, such as equity funds, debt funds, and hybrid funds. You can select funds based on your risk appetite, investment horizon, and specific financial goals.

If you are planning to invest in mutual funds through the Systematic Investment Plan, it is crucial to make informed decisions. It may often get confusing to choose among the multitude of options available.

Angel One offers a handy tool to help you calculate potential returns and plan your investments effectively - the HDFC Bank SIP Calculator. This powerful online tool accounts for factors such as the investment amount, investment duration and expected return rate of the mutual fund to compute the expected returns from your SIP investments with HDFC Bank.

You can access the HDFC SIP calculator online on Angel One anytime for free.

Using the online HDFC Bank SIP calculator is convenient and hassle-free. Follow the steps below to get instant estimates:

1. Access the SIP calculator on the Angel One website.
2. Enter the periodic (usually monthly) investment amount you plan to invest in SIP.
3. Select the expected rate of return.
4. Enter the tenure of your investment.

The calculator will provide you with a detailed breakdown of the potential returns, including the total investment amount, the maturity amount, and the overall growth of your investment.

Let’s understand the above steps with an example. Suppose you want to invest Rs. 4,000 monthly in a mutual fund SIP for 5 years, and the expected rate of return is 12% p.a. Here’s how to determine the final maturity amount and total returns using the online SIP calculator:

1. Enter Rs. 4,000 in the monthly amount field.
2. Adjust the slider to input the rate of return as 12% p.a.
3. Enter 5 years as the tenure.

The SIP calculator will show you the total investment amount and expected returns immediately. In this case, the expected returns will be Rs. 89,945. The maturity amount will be Rs. 3,29,945.

You can also use the calculator to determine how much you should be investing as monthly SIP to reach a certain monetary goal by switching to the target amount calculator. This requires you to enter the targeted value along with the tenure and estimated return rate. Once done, it displays how much you need to invest in SIP monthly.

So, if you target Rs. 7,50,000 after 4 years and the mutual fund is expected to return 11%, the calculator will yield your monthly SIP investment of Rs. 12,396.

• Monthly Instalment: The amount you invest as SIP each month directly impacts the maturity amount. Higher installments lead to greater returns.

• Tenure: The investment tenure plays a significant role in determining the returns on your investment. Longer tenures help to take advantage of market highs and balance the decrease in value during market turbulences.

• Market conditions: Mutual funds are directly linked to the market, and thus SIP earnings depend on the market conditions and the performance of underlying investments.
