This assumes a steady 12% — real equity returns swing year to year, so treat it as a planning estimate, not a guarantee. Got a monthly surplus instead of a lump sum? A SIP may suit you better.
What ₹25 lakh really becomes
- In today's money: at 6% inflation, ₹77,64,621 after 10 years buys what about ₹43,35,724 buys today, still roughly 1.7 times what you put in.
- Tax if you withdraw it all at once: in an equity fund held over a year, gains above ₹1,25,000 a year are taxed at 12.5% plus 4% cess, so about ₹6,68,151 on these ₹52,64,621 of gains. Withdrawing in parts over several years uses the ₹1,25,000 allowance each year and can cut this sharply.
- Doubling time: at 12% the money doubles roughly every 6.1 years, which is why the last few years add the most.
