Frequently Asked Questions on ₹25,000 per Month SWP Plan
How long will a ₹42 Lakhs mutual fund corpus last with an SWP of ₹25,000 / month?▼
At an average annual return of 8% in equity or hybrid mutual funds, a ₹42 Lakhs corpus sustains ₹25,000 / month monthly withdrawals for 25+ Years. Over 20 years, you withdraw ₹60,00,000 while leaving ₹59,67,061 in remaining portfolio value.
How is tax calculated on an SWP of ₹25,000 / month?▼
In an SWP, each monthly payout is treated as a partial redemption of units. Only the capital gains portion (not the principal) is taxable. For equity funds held over 12 months, LTCG is taxed at 12.5% only on aggregate profits exceeding ₹1.25 Lakhs in a financial year, making it vastly more tax-efficient than 30% slab rate FD interest.
Can I increase my monthly SWP payout for inflation?▼
Yes. Most Indian AMCs (HDFC, SBI, ICICI Prudential, Nippon) allow annual step-up SWP percentages (e.g. 5% to 6% annual increase) to match rising living costs, provided your underlying portfolio return exceeds your total withdrawal rate.
