Retirement Planning in India

Start planning for retirement today. Learn how to build a corpus that ensures financial independence in your golden years.

The 30x Rule for Retirement

A common guideline: Your retirement corpus should be at least 30 times your annual expenses. If you spend ₹50,000/month (₹6 lakh/year), aim for ₹1.8 crores. Adjust this for inflation - ₹50,000 today will need ₹2.9 lakh/month in 25 years at 6% inflation.
