How to Become a Crorepati by SIP?

A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a powerful way to build wealth over time. By starting with as little as ₹5,000 per month, disciplined investing over time can help you accumulate ₹1 crore or more.

The following category of SIPs can help you to become crorepati from SIP:

  1. Regular SIP:

    This involves investing a fixed amount every month without any increase in the investment amount over time. For example, if you invest ₹5,000 monthly for 27 years at an average annual return of 12%, you could accumulate approximately ₹1 crore.

  2. Step-Up SIP:

    This strategy allows you to increase your monthly investment by a certain percentage each year. For instance, starting with ₹5,000 and increasing it by 10% annually can accelerate your path to becoming a crorepati.

    SIP Type Monthly Investment Duration (Years) Expected Annual Return Estimated Corpus
    Regular SIP ₹5,000 27 years 12% p.a. ~₹1.08 Crore
    Step-Up SIP ₹5,000 + 10% p.a. 21 years 12% p.a. ~₹1.16 Crore
