THE INDIAN RETIREMENT CORPUS CALCULATOR & PLANNER
Stop Guessing About Retirement. Start Planning With Numbers.
Retirement planning isn't simply about saving money. It's about knowing how much you may need, when you may need it, whether your current investments are on track, and what you need to do next.
This practical planner takes you through that process—from your current expenses and inflation to your retirement corpus, monthly SIP, savings gap and retirement readiness.
Instead of giving you pages of generic financial theory, this workbook helps you work with your own numbers.
📋 Calculate Your Retirement Expenses
Identify the lifestyle and expenses you want to maintain after retirement.
📈 Adjust Your Expenses for Inflation
Understand how today's expenses can change by the time you retire.
🧮 Calculate Your Target Retirement Corpus
Use a structured calculation to estimate the corpus required for your planned retirement period.
💰 Calculate Your Required Monthly SIP
Work out the monthly investment amount required to work toward your target corpus.
🚀 Explore a Step-Up SIP Strategy
Learn how gradually increasing your SIP as your income grows can provide an alternative to starting with a large fixed SIP.
🔍 Calculate Your Existing-Asset Contribution
Consider your current EPF, PPF, mutual funds and other retirement assets before calculating the remaining funding gap.
📊 Check Your Retirement Readiness
Assess six dimensions of retirement preparation—not just your investment corpus.
✍️ Complete Your Own Printable Workbook
Fill in your numbers, create your plan and revisit it during your annual financial review.
No more relying on statements like “I think ₹2–3 crore should be enough.”
The planner guides you through a calculation based on your retirement lifestyle, expenses, inflation and expected retirement duration to establish a reasoned target.
Once you have a target corpus, the book helps you calculate the required monthly SIP to work toward that target.
You'll also see reference calculations across different corpus targets and time horizons.
If your calculated SIP feels too large today, the planner explains the Step-Up SIP approach—starting with a more manageable amount and increasing it periodically as income grows.
Retirement expenses aren't limited to groceries and household bills.
The planner specifically addresses healthcare inflation and shows how using a separate medical-cost assumption can materially affect retirement calculations.
Understand retirement planning in the context of Indian financial instruments such as:
EPF • PPF • NPS • Mutual Funds • Fixed Deposits • Gold • Real Estate
The book is specifically structured around Indian retirement circumstances and Indian rupee calculations.
Your existing investments already form part of your retirement journey.
The planner helps you calculate the future value of existing assets and then determine the remaining corpus gap that future investments need to address.
The book includes an age-wise retirement planning framework from approximately age 25 through 55, helping readers understand how retirement planning priorities change through different stages of working life.
The planner goes beyond accumulation and also covers the retirement withdrawal phase and tax-efficient retirement planning considerations.

The book demonstrates the process using Kavita, a 32-year-old professional, showing how the calculations move from current expenses and inflation to retirement corpus, existing assets, SIP requirements, asset allocation and readiness assessment.
So you don't have to figure out the process alone.
You can follow the example and then apply the same framework to your own numbers.
✅ Are in your 20s, 30s, 40s or 50s and haven't calculated your retirement requirement yet
✅ Have started investing but don't know whether your current SIP is sufficient
✅ Have EPF, PPF, NPS or mutual funds but don't know how they fit into your overall retirement plan
✅ Are self-employed or run a business without an employer pension
✅ Want to understand the impact of inflation on your future lifestyle
✅ Want to calculate your retirement corpus instead of simply guessing
✅ Want to determine your required monthly investment
✅ Want a structured way to review your retirement progress every year
Retirement planning involves several variables—time, inflation, investment returns, expenses, retirement age and longevity.
You don't need to predict the future perfectly.
You need a plan you can calculate, review and adjust.
This planner gives you a structured framework to do exactly that.
