Frequently Asked Questions
How much retirement corpus do I need in India?+
A common rule: retire with 25× your annual expenses at retirement (adjusted for inflation). At 6% inflation, ₹50,000/month expenses today become ~₹2.4L/month in 20 years. Corpus needed: ~₹6 crore using SWP at 6% withdrawal rate.
What is the 4% withdrawal rule and does it apply in India?+
The 4% rule says you can withdraw 4% of your corpus annually without running out of money for 30 years. In India, with 6% inflation (vs US 2-3%), a 3% withdrawal rate is safer. CalcCrack allows you to model any withdrawal rate.
What is an SWP in mutual funds?+
A Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) lets you withdraw a fixed amount monthly from a mutual fund. The remaining corpus continues to earn returns. It is a tax-efficient alternative to pension income — gains are taxed as capital gains, not as regular income.
How much do I need to save monthly to retire at 45?+
For early retirement (FIRE) at 45, you need a larger corpus — typically 33× annual expenses (3% withdrawal rate). Enter your details in CalcCrack Retirement Calculator to get your personalized monthly SIP target.
