A Step-Up SIP, or a top-up SIP, is a facility that allows you to automatically increase your SIP investment amount at regular intervals, typically annually. This aligns your investments with your growing income and helps you reach your financial goals faster.
By increasing your investment amount periodically, you accelerate the power of compounding. A small annual increase, say 10%, can lead to a significantly larger corpus over the long term compared to a fixed SIP.
A common practice is to increase your SIP amount in line with your annual salary hike. A step-up of 8-10% per year is a popular and effective strategy for long-term wealth creation.
Enter your initial monthly investment, the expected rate of return, your investment tenure, and the annual step-up percentage. The calculator will project your total investment, estimated returns, and the final maturity value.
For long-term goals, a Step-Up SIP is almost always superior to a regular (fixed) SIP. It instills a discipline of saving more as you earn more, putting you on the fast track to achieving your financial objectives.
