Example of an SWP Calculation
Suppose you invest ₹6,00,000 in a mutual fund and withdraw ₹10,000 every month. If you expect an annual return of 8% and continue for 5 years, the calculator estimates your remaining investment balance and total withdrawals.
These figures are only estimates. Actual returns may be higher or lower depending on market performance.
