💰 Financial Independence & Early Retirement (FIRE) Calculator – India Edition

Dreaming of retiring by 40 or 50? With the FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement catching fire in India, it's time to plan your financial freedom using a powerful yet simple tool — the FIRE Calculator India.

From Mumbai to Bengaluru, more Indians are choosing early retirement with the help of SIP investments, index funds, and real estate. Our FIRE calculator is designed specifically for the Indian audience, with INR currency support and Indian stock market expectations.


🔥 What is a FIRE Calculator?

The FIRE Calculator helps you determine the corpus (retirement fund) you’ll need to retire early in India, while sustaining your desired lifestyle for decades.

It calculates how long your lump sum retirement fund will last, based on:

  • Your expected monthly withdrawals
  • Expected annual return on investment (e.g., mutual funds, Nifty 50, PPF)
  • Your life expectancy

🚀 Why Use a FIRE Calculator in India?

✅ Find your early retirement number in Indian Rupees
✅ Plan retirement in cities like Pune, Hyderabad, or Goa with confidence
✅ Adjust for Indian mutual fund returns (~10-12% p.a.)
✅ Decide if your corpus can withstand inflation & market cycles
✅ Get a visual graph of corpus depletion


Example: Indian FIRE Scenario

Imagine you want to retire at 45 and need ₹50,000/month till age 85.
You expect 10% annual return on your corpus.

👉 Our FIRE calculator shows you’ll need a corpus of approximately ₹1.1 Crores.

You can grow this corpus with a smart SIP in Indian index funds.

📌 Use our SIP Calculator to plan monthly investments toward your FIRE goal.

🧮 FIRE Corpus Formula (Simplified for India)

We use the present value of annuity formula to calculate your required corpus: Corpus=Withdrawal×[1−(1+monthlyRate)(−months)]/monthlyRateCorpus = Withdrawal × [1 - (1 + monthlyRate)^(-months)] / monthlyRate Corpus=Withdrawal×[1−(1+monthlyRate)(−months)]/monthlyRate

Where:

  • Withdrawal = Monthly retirement expense (e.g., ₹50,000)
  • monthlyRate = Expected Annual Return / 12 (e.g., 10% ÷ 12 = 0.83%)
  • months = Retirement years × 12
