Retirement Calculator

What is Retirement Calculator?

A retirement calculator estimates the corpus you need to retire comfortably and the monthly savings required to build it, accounting for inflation and expected returns.

Retirement planning is a marathon — starting early and saving consistently matters more than timing the market.

How does the Retirement Calculator work?

The calculator projects your future annual expenses with inflation, then applies a safe withdrawal multiple (typically 25x) to find the corpus.

It then solves for the monthly savings needed to build that corpus by retirement age.

How to use the Retirement Calculator?

1. Enter your current age and planned retirement age.
2. Enter your current annual expenses.
3. Enter expected inflation and return rates.
4. The calculator shows the required corpus and monthly savings.
