About Retirement Planning

Retirement planning is crucial for ensuring financial security in your golden years. Our Retirement Planner helps you calculate the corpus you need, considering inflation, investment returns, and your current savings.

Key Components of Retirement Planning

Retirement Corpus Calculation

Calculate the total amount needed to maintain your lifestyle during retirement, considering inflation and life expectancy.

Inflation Adjustment

Account for inflation to ensure your retirement corpus maintains its purchasing power over time.

Retirement Planning Formula

Retirement Corpus = (Annual Retirement Expense × (1 + Inflation Rate)^Years to Retirement) × Retirement Years

Common Retirement Planning Mistakes to Avoid

  • Underestimating inflation: Failing to account for inflation can erode your retirement savings
  • Starting too late: The earlier you start, the more your money can grow through compounding
  • Overestimating returns: Being too optimistic about investment returns can lead to shortfalls
  • Ignoring healthcare costs: Medical expenses typically increase with age
  • Not diversifying: Putting all your eggs in one basket increases risk
Note: This calculator provides estimates based on the inputs provided. Actual results may vary based on market conditions, tax implications, and personal circumstances. Consider consulting a financial advisor for personalized retirement planning.

How much retirement corpus do I need?

The retirement corpus needed depends on your current expenses, inflation rate, retirement age, life expectancy, and expected returns. Our retirement planner calculates this based on your specific inputs.

When should I start retirement planning?

The earlier you start retirement planning, the better. Starting in your 20s or 30s allows more time for compounding to work in your favor.

What is the ideal retirement age?

The ideal retirement age varies based on personal goals, health, and financial readiness. In India, 60 is commonly considered retirement age, but many plan for early retirement or work longer.
