Why Retirement Planning Is Critical

India has no social security system like some western countries. Retirement planning is entirely your responsibility. With increasing life expectancy — many people now live to 85-90 — you may need to fund 25-30 years of post-retirement life from your savings.

Inflation is the silent destroyer of retirement savings. At 6% inflation, the purchasing power of ₹50,000 today becomes equivalent to just ₹15,700 in 20 years. This is why our calculator factors in inflation to give you a realistic corpus target.

The 25x Rule for Retirement

A common rule of thumb is that you need 25 times your annual expenses as your retirement corpus (assuming a 4% safe withdrawal rate). If your annual expenses are ₹6 lakh (₹50,000/month), you need ₹1.5 crore. However, with Indian inflation and longer lifespans, many advisors recommend planning for 30-33x annual expenses for a comfortable retirement.
