FIRE path & SIP planner (India)

Given a target corpus and years remaining, explore the monthly investment that may be required under a chosen return rate — with optional starting corpus.

What you can explore

• Target FIRE number and years to goal
• Starting investments already saved
• Assumed annual return → illustrative monthly SIP
• Pair with the FIRE calculator for the full picture

How SIP-to-FIRE is estimated

We solve for a constant monthly contribution that grows to the remaining corpus need at your assumed return. Markets vary; this is a planning sketch, not advice.

FAQ

What is the FIRE path planner?

It turns a target FIRE corpus and years remaining into an illustrative monthly SIP under an assumed return, optionally starting from money you already have.

Do I need a FIRE number first?

Helpful, yes. Use the FIRE calculator to estimate a corpus, then open the path planner to explore the monthly investment that may be required.

What return should I assume?

Many long-horizon equity plans use roughly 10–12%. Stress-test lower returns. Past returns do not guarantee future results.

Is this the same as the SIP calculator?

Same math family, different framing: FIRE path starts from a FIRE corpus and timeline; the SIP calculator is a general corpus / target tool.
