Planning for Early Retirement! Here's How Investing ₹10,000 Monthly Can Secure Your Golden Years

Retirement Planning: Do you have the same aspirations as 35-year-old Delhi manager Rohit to retire early? When Rohit retires, he wants to be fifty years old and have a reliable monthly income of ₹50,000. We have a plan that can assist you in achieving the same objective of accumulating a sizeable sum of money and ensuring a comfortable retirement. Your retirement aspirations can come true if you allocate a sensible part of your income for investments.

Start with a Small Investment

It is recommended that you invest between 10 and 20 percent of your monthly income in order to get started on the path to a safe retirement. Assume that you currently make ₹50,000 a month. In this case, your monthly investment goal should be at least ₹10,000. If your pay is smaller, think about earning extra money so you can make sure you can invest this amount on a regular basis.

The Power of SIP and Step-up SIP

Using mutual fund Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) is a fantastic approach to invest. Considering that you want to retire in 15 years, here's a straightforward but efficient plan:

• Monthly Investment: Start by investing ₹10,000 per month in mutual funds via SIP.
• Annual Increase: Implement a step-up SIP approach by increasing your investment by 10% every year.

For example, your monthly investment is ₹10,000 in the first year. Raise this amount to 11,000 a month in the second year. Increase it to ₹12,100 a month in the third year, and keep going for 15 years.

Building a Substantial Fund

If you stick to the step-up SIP approach consistently, you have the ability to accumulate ₹1 crore in corpus over a 15-year period. How to do it is as follows:

• Yearly Contributions: Start with ₹10,000 per month, increasing by 10% annually.
• Compounded Growth: Benefit from the compounded returns of mutual funds.

This methodical technique can result in a sizable retirement savings after 15 years.

Post-Retirement Strategy for a Monthly Income of ₹50,000

Planning for a consistent monthly income is the next step after you have amassed ₹1 crore. Here's how to do it:

1. Withdraw Half: Withdraw ₹50 lakh from the accumulated fund to meet immediate needs or invest in other schemes.
2. Reinvest Half: Invest the remaining ₹50 lakh in a mutual fund as a lump sum.

Assuming a 12% annual interest rate, this lump sum investment can yield about ₹6 lakh year, or ₹50,000 every month. This gives you a steady monthly income while guaranteeing that your principal amount stays the same.
