Formula & Explanation

Step-Up SIP = Σ [SIP × (1+g)^y × ((1+r)^(n-m) - 1) / r]

Each year's SIP amount increases by the step-up percentage. The formula compounds each year's contributions at the expected return rate for the remaining investment period. g = annual step-up rate, r = monthly return rate, n = total months, m = months elapsed.

About Step-Up SIP Calculator

Our Step-Up SIP Calculator shows the power of increasing your SIP amount every year. By incrementing your monthly investment by 10-15% annually (matching salary growth), you can build significantly more wealth than a flat SIP — often 50-90% more over 15-20 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Step-Up SIP (also called Top-Up SIP) automatically increases your monthly SIP amount by a fixed percentage every year. For example, a ₹10,000 SIP with 10% step-up becomes ₹11,000 in year 2, ₹12,100 in year 3, and so on.

A 10% annual step-up on ₹10,000 SIP at 12% returns for 20 years gives ~₹1.91 crore vs ~₹99.9 lakh from regular SIP. That's nearly double — ₹91 lakh extra wealth from the step-up alone.

Match your step-up to your expected salary increment — typically 8-15% for most salaried professionals. Even a 5% step-up makes a significant difference over 15+ years. Don't set it higher than your income growth or you may struggle to maintain it.

Yes, most platforms like Groww, Zerodha Coin, Kuvera, and MF Central support annual SIP step-up. You can set the percentage increase when creating the SIP. Some AMCs also offer this directly.
