Lumpsum Investment Calculator

A lumpsum investment is a one-time investment of a large amount. It's ideal when you have surplus funds and want to invest for long-term growth.

Formula

Where FV = future value, PV = present value (lumpsum amount), r = expected annual return rate (decimal), t = investment period in years

Example Calculation

Scenario:

Invest ₹5,00,000 for 10 years at 12% CAGR

Calculation:

FV = 5,00,000 × (1 + 0.12)^10

Result:

₹15,52,924 (Absolute return: 210.58%)

Key Points

  • Best suited for investors with a significant amount to invest at once
  • Timing the market can impact returns significantly
  • Higher risk compared to SIP as entire amount is invested at once
  • Can benefit from market lows if invested at the right time
  • Ideal for long-term goals (5+ years) to ride out market volatility

Tax Implications:

  • Equity mutual funds: LTCG at 12.5% (exempt up to ₹1.25 lakh/year), STCG at 20%
  • Debt mutual funds: Taxed at slab rates for units purchased after April 1, 2023
  • Holding period: >12 months for equity = long-term; >36 months for debt = long-term (old units)
