What is a lumpsum investment in mutual funds?

A lumpsum investment means investing a large amount at one go rather than spreading it over time through SIP. It works best when markets are low or when you receive a windfall — such as a bonus, inheritance, or maturity proceeds. The entire amount earns compound returns from day one, so the growth is faster compared to a SIP of the same total amount over the same period.

How is lumpsum return calculated?

Lumpsum returns use the compound interest formula: FV = P × (1 + r)^n, where P is the principal invested, r is the annual return rate (divided by 100), and n is the number of years. The calculator shows an estimate based on a constant assumed return — actual mutual fund returns vary annually with market conditions.
