What is a Goal-Based Step-Up SIP?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>A <strong>step-up SIP<\/strong> starts with a fixed monthly amount and increases annually (fixed \u20b9 or %) to match income growth, targeting specific goals like \u20b91 crore retirement. Unlike regular SIPs, it accelerates corpus via top-ups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. How does SSW&#8217;s calculator work?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter goal amount, timeline, initial SIP, top-up rate (5-20%), and expected returns (10-15%). It projects final corpus, total invested, and growth using a compounded SIP formula with annual adjustments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. What&#8217;s the difference between regular SIP and step-up SIP?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Feature<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Regular SIP<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Step-Up SIP<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Monthly Amount<\/td><td>Fixed<\/td><td>Increases yearly<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total Invested (15 yrs, 10% top-up)<\/td><td>\u20b936L<\/td><td>\u20b948.6L<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Corpus @12%<\/td><td>\u20b981.5L<\/td><td><strong>\u20b91.25 Cr<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Can I customise top-up frequency?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes \u2014 annual (most common), half-yearly, or custom via SSW. Matches salary cycles; minimum \u20b9500 top-up typical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Is step-up SIP better for inflation?<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Absolutely<\/strong>. 10% annual top-up counters 6-7% inflation, preserving purchasing power. Example: \u20b920k SIP becomes \u20b91.6Cr in 15 years vs \u20b999L regular. Ideal for rising costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Disclaimer <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The above results are for illustration purposes only.
