The SIP Formula Explained

M = P × [{(1+i)^n - 1} ÷ i] × (1+i)

Where:
M = Maturity Amount
P = Monthly SIP Amount (₹5000)
i = Monthly Rate of Return (annual return ÷ 12 ÷ 100)
n = Total Number of Monthly Installments (years × 12)

Worked Example:
Monthly SIP: ₹5,000 | Expected Return: 12% p.a. | Tenure: 10 years
Monthly rate (i) = 12/12/100 = 0.01
Number of months (n) = 10 × 12 = 120
M = 5,000 × [118 ÷ 0.01] × (1+0.01)
Maturity Amount ≈ ₹11,61,695
Total Invested: ₹6,00,000 | Estimated Returns: ₹5,61,695
