Guide

1What is a Step-Up SIP?

A Step-Up SIP (also called a Top-Up SIP) is an enhanced version of a regular SIP where you increase your monthly investment amount by a fixed percentage or amount every year. As your income grows, your investments grow proportionally.

For example, if you start a SIP of ₹10,000 per month with a 10% annual step-up, your investment becomes ₹11,000 in the second year, ₹12,100 in the third year, and so on. This accelerates wealth creation significantly compared to a flat SIP.

2Step-Up SIP vs Regular SIP

  • Higher Corpus: A step-up SIP can generate 50-70% more wealth than a flat SIP over 20 years
  • Income Aligned: Matches your growing income with growing investments
  • Same Starting Point: You begin with the same affordable amount
  • Inflation Hedge: Increasing investments help maintain purchasing power of your future corpus

3Step-Up SIP Formula

The future value is computed year by year, with the monthly amount increasing each year:

Year N investment = M × (1 + s)^(N-1)

  • M = Initial monthly SIP amount
  • s = Annual step-up rate (e.g., 10% = 0.10)

The total future value is the sum of individual SIP future values for each year's investment amount, compounded for the remaining duration.
