Daily SIP Calculator

A Daily SIP allows you to invest a small amount of money as low as ₹10 every day in a mutual fund. Instead of a weekly or monthly commitment, your money flows daily without putting much pressure on your pocket.

What Is a Daily SIP Calculator and What Is Its Purpose?

A Daily SIP Calculator is an online tool that helps you estimate the potential returns on your daily Systematic Investment Plan (SIP). Simply enter a few basic details to see how your daily investments could grow over time.

Why Choose Daily SIP?

• Disciplined Investment

It helps you build a disciplined habit of investing in a mutual fund(s) on a daily basis without worrying much about the market timings.

• Low Cost of Entry

You can start investing with an amount as low as ₹10, depending on the mutual fund scheme. This increases its affordability for a larger group of people.

• Better Rupee-Cost Averaging

Because you invest everyday, your cost per unit gets averaged across more market days, thereby, capturing short-term market fluctuations better and reducing the risk of volatility.

How does Daily SIP work?

• Selection: You choose a mutual fund scheme and specify a fixed amount to invest each business day (e.g., ₹10 or ₹100 per day).
• Auto-Debit: Your linked bank account is automatically debited. Instead of one large deduction a month, it pulls the amount every day
• Unit Allocation: The daily amount purchases units of the mutual fund at that day's Net Asset Value (NAV).

Daily SIP vs Weekly SIP vs Monthly SIP: Which is Better?

The objective of all three SIPs, i.e., daily, weekly and monthly SIPs, is the same and that is encouraging and facilitating disciplined and consistent habit of investing. However, there are few differences that you must know before deciding how frequently you want to contribute towards your mutual fund investments.

An online Daily SIP Calculator instantly estimates the potential return value of your investment. To use the calculator, users need to enter only a few basic details, including:

• Daily SIP Amount: The amount you wish to invest every day like ₹10/day.
  
• Investment Duration: The period for which you plan to stay invested, such as 1 year, 2 years or 5 years.
  
• Expected Rate of Return: The assumed annual rate of return on your investment over the chosen investment tenure.

Once you enter these details, the calculator will instantly display the estimated returns, total invested amount and approximate profit. Moreover, you can adjust the inputs to compare different investment scenarios and choose a plan that best aligns with your financial goals.

Daily SIP Calculator works on a specific algorithm that is based on compounding principal.

Daily SIP Formula: FV = A*(({[1 + r]^n – 1}/r)*(1 + r))

Where:

• FV = Future value of the investment
  
• A = Daily SIP amount
  
• r = The daily rate of return (annual rate divided by 365)
  
• n = Total number of daily SIP Installments (number of years multiplied by 365)
  

Let's understand this through an example-
Suppose you invest ₹100/day for 5 years with an expected rate of return 12% p.a.

According to formula:

P= ₹100 per day
n= 5 years x 252 days (Official trading market in a year)= 1,260 Instalments
Daily Return (r): Approx. 0.0450% per day.

Based on the formula, the total estimated return would be ₹2.46 lakh, in which the invested amount is ₹1.82 lakh and approximate profit is ₹63.07k.

• Type of Mutual Fund Scheme: Different mutual fund schemes invest in different asset classes and follow different investment strategies, which affects your overall returns.

• Market Performance: In case of equity mutual funds, the returns are directly linked to market movements, whereas, the returns from debt mutual funds are influenced by interest rate trends and credit conditions.

• Investment Duration: The longer you stay invested, the more you benefit from the power of compounding. Longer holding periods also ride out short-term volatility, depending on the market cycles.

• Investment Frequency & Consistency: A daily SIP allows you to average your cost basis at more frequent intervals. Moreover, pausing or stopping SIPs during volatile phases may affect long-term returns on an investment.

How to know if daily investing is the right investment strategy for you?

If you are wondering if daily SIP is the right strategy for you, then you should consider the following parameters to make an informed decision for yourself:

Check Your Income and Cash Flow

Daily investing can work best for those having regular income and predictable cash flow. It can also work for those who prefer investing their savings across the month instead of once every month or lump sum.

Determine If It Aligns With Your Risk Appetite

Ensure the strategy of daily SIPs aligns well with your risk tolerance. Daily investing spreads purchases across more market levels, which for some investors can be comforting during volatile markets. Moreover, by breaking your money into small daily amounts, you don’t have to time the market for investing. This approach reduces your fear because a sudden market crash will only affect a tiny fraction of your funds on that day.
