SBI Annuity Deposit Scheme Calculator

The SBI Annuity Deposit Scheme Calculator is available to determine the exact amount of annuity that they can receive on a monthly basis, depending on the investment they make and the rate of interest applied to it.

What is an Annuity?

In layman's terms, an annuity may be regarded as an EMI that is paid to an investor every month, over a fixed period of time, in return for an initial lumpsum investment. The investor may make the initial investment at his convenience. The principal and interest (diminishing interest on principal) are both returned to the investor in the form of a monthly annuity. These investments are usually made as a means of pension after retirement that investors can avail of; for this reason, annuities are usually lifelong.

There are various types of annuities that an investor may invest in. A few main types are listed below:

1. Lump-Sum Annuity

When investing in this type of annuity plan, the investor has the option to receive the entire payment as a lump sum instead of installments. This is one of the most common types of annuities that people invest in.

2. Periodic Annuity

This kind of annuity will give the investor a regular stream of income in the form of periodic installments. The payouts may be monthly or at the end of a specific number of years, e.g., 1 year, 10 years, etc.

3. Immediate Annuity

The annuity is paid immediately after the investor makes the initial lump sum investment in this kind of investment. This is one of the less popular forms of investment.

4. Deferred Annuity

This form of investment consists of two phases, the accumulation phase and the payout phase. The investor is required to make premium payments over a specific period of time. This amount is then directed towards buying the specific annuity. Once the purchase is completed, regular annuity payments to the investor begin.

5. Fixed Annuity

The payments in this type of annuity scheme are fixed, and they will remain the same over the entire payout period. This provides a steady stream of income, but capital gains are low.

6. Variable Annuity

This is a high-risk type of investment. The annuity will depend on the market conditions and will increase or decrease according to the fund's performance in the market.
