SWP Calculator

See how long your savings last if you withdraw a fixed amount every month.

ⓘ How this works

An SWP (Systematic Withdrawal Plan) is the reverse of a SIP: instead of putting money in every month, you withdraw a fixed amount every month from a lump sum you've already invested, while the rest keeps growing at your expected rate of return. It's commonly used by retirees to turn their savings into a steady monthly "income". This calculator shows whether your money will last the full period you plan for, or run out sooner, and how much would be left if it survives. All figures are in future rupees — a fixed withdrawal buys less each year as prices rise. Set Annual step-up to your inflation estimate to keep the withdrawal's buying power constant.

Your money lasts the full period you set, with a balance still growing at the end.
Withdrawing a fixed amount from a market-linked corpus is riskiest when returns are poor early on — the corpus may run out years before this smooth projection suggests.

Risk note · Market-linked investments (mutual funds, stocks, SIPs) carry risk. The return you enter is an assumption — actual returns vary year to year, can be negative, and past performance does not predict future results. A smooth projected curve never happens in real markets; the final figure can land well above or below it.

Disclaimer · finkit is an educational tool, not financial, tax or legal advice. Every result is a projection from the numbers you entered and the assumptions stated on the page — it is not a forecast, a quote, or an offer. Check decisions with a SEBI-registered adviser, your lender, or a tax professional.
