Your retirement corpus is the total amount of money you’ll need at the time of retirement to support your lifestyle throughout your retirement years. This includes all your expenses adjusted for inflation, and the return you expect to earn after retirement.
How Does Inflation Affect Retirement Planning?
Inflation causes the cost of living to rise over time, which means that the money you save now may not be enough to cover your expenses when you retire. This tool helps you account for inflation to ensure that your retirement corpus is sufficient to cover future costs.
How is the Retirement Corpus Calculated?
The retirement corpus is calculated by factoring in your current expenses, expected inflation rate, and expected returns after retirement. It uses the Present Value of Annuity formula to calculate the total corpus required to fund your monthly expenses for the duration of your retirement.
