SIP returns — historical "what if"

If you had invested every month in this fund over the chosen period, this is what your investment would be worth today.

Wealth multiplier
Period Total invested Today's value XIRR Wealth multiplier

XIRR is the annualised internal rate of return on the SIP cash flow — invariant to the monthly amount. "Today's value" and "Total invested" scale linearly with the slider. Past performance does not guarantee future returns. Excludes exit load and taxes.

Risk profile

Risk-adjusted return and volatility, computed from monthly NAV returns over the trailing 3-year and 5-year windows.

Sharpe / Sortino use a risk-free rate of 6.5% (1-year T-bill proxy). Higher Sharpe = more return per unit of total risk; higher Sortino = more return per unit of downside risk.
