Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SIP formula in Excel?+
In Excel: =FV(rate/12, months, -monthly_sip). For ₹5,000/mo at 12% for 10 years: =FV(12%/12, 120, -5000) ≈ ₹11.6L. CalcCrack uses this formula and adds step-up SIP compounding automatically.
How do I calculate step-up SIP in Excel?+
Step-up SIP in Excel requires row-by-row calculation where the SIP amount increases each year. This needs 120+ rows for a 10-year monthly step-up SIP. CalcCrack computes it instantly with one input field.
Can I do goal-based SIP planning in Excel?+
Goal-based SIP (finding required monthly SIP for a target corpus) requires the NPER or GOAL SEEK function in Excel. CalcCrack has a dedicated reverse SIP calculator that does this automatically.
Is a 12% annual return on SIP realistic?+
Indian equity mutual funds have historically delivered 12–15% CAGR over 10+ year periods. However, past returns are not a guarantee of future performance. Use 10–12% for conservative projections.
