How long the corpus lasts:300

Each month the corpus earns a return and then the withdrawal is taken out. While the return exceeds the withdrawal the corpus keeps growing; once the withdrawal is larger, the balance falls and the fall accelerates. This is why a small rise in the withdrawal can shorten the corpus life sharply.

About Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) with Inflation

A Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) allows mutual fund investors to withdraw a fixed amount of money at regular monthly intervals while the remaining corpus continues to compound and earn returns.

Why Factor Inflation into SWP? Inflation erodes purchasing power over time. A monthly withdrawal of ₹30,000 today will not buy the same basket of goods 10 or 20 years from now. Adding an annual inflation adjustment (e.g. 6% per year) ensures your monthly income grows to cover rising living expenses during retirement.

Frequently Asked Questions — SWP

How long will a ₹1.25 Crores mutual fund corpus last with an SWP of ₹75,000 / month?

At an average annual return of 8% in equity or hybrid mutual funds, a ₹1.25 Crores corpus sustains ₹75,000 / month monthly withdrawals for 30+ Years. Over 20 years, you withdraw ₹1,80,00,000 while leaving ₹1,74,08,503 in remaining portfolio value.

How is tax calculated on an SWP of ₹75,000 / 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.

Strategic Insights for ₹75,000 per Month SWP Plan

✓Withdrawing ₹75,000 / month from a ₹1.25 Crores corpus at an 8% expected return generates ₹1,80,00,000 in total cash flow over 20 years.

✓Because the initial withdrawal rate is conservative (6% to 7.2%), your remaining portfolio balance after 20 years stands at ₹1,74,08,503, preserving capital above your starting deposit.

✓Under Indian Income Tax rules, SWP redemptions are taxed ONLY on the capital gains proportion of each installment (under Section 112A LTCG at 12.5% above the ₹1.25L exemption), offering massive tax savings over bank FD interest.

✓Unlike fixed annuities which lock your principal permanently, an SWP allows 100% liquidity—you can modify your monthly payout or withdraw lump sums anytime without penalty.
