Why does a retirement calculator use inflation?

Inflation reduces your purchasing power over time. A monthly expense of ₹50,000 today will cost significantly more in 20 or 30 years. Factoring in inflation ensures your target corpus is large enough to buy the same quality of life later.

What are the standard assumptions for retirement in India?

Typically, long-term inflation is modeled around 6% p.a., and post-retirement portfolios are managed conservatively to yield around 7% to 8% p.a. while ensuring capital safety.

When should I start investing for my retirement?

The earlier you begin, the more you benefit from compounding. Starting at age 25 requires a drastically smaller monthly SIP to reach the same financial freedom corpus than starting at age 40.
