SIP Calculator

Calculate SIP or lump-sum maturity value with optional annual step-up.

  • Method: POST
  • URL: /api/calculator/sip_calculator
  • Auth: Not required

Request body:

Parameter Type Required Constraints Description
investmentType string Yes "sip" or "lump" Monthly SIP or one-time lump sum
amount number Yes > 0, max 10 Cr Monthly SIP amount or lump-sum amount in INR
annualReturnRatePercent number Yes 0-30 Expected annual return (e.g., 12 = 12%)
durationYears int Yes 1-40 Investment duration in years
annualStepUpPercent number No 0-50, default 0 Annual SIP increment %. SIP only.
# Flat SIP — Rs 10,000/month for 10 years at 12%
curl -s -X POST https://api.indvested.com/api/calculator/sip_calculator \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"investmentType": "sip", "amount": 10000, "annualReturnRatePercent": 12, "durationYears": 10}'
{
  "investmentType": "sip",
  "monthlySipAmount": 10000,
  "annualStepUpPercent": 0,
  "annualReturnRatePercent": 12,
  "durationYears": 10,
  "maturityValue": {
    "totalCorpus": 2323391,
    "totalAmountInvested": 1200000,
    "wealthGained": 1123391,
    "formatted": { "locale": "en_IN", "totalCorpus": "23,23,391" }
  },
  "yearlyBreakdown": [
    {
      "year": 1,
      "monthlySipAtYearStart": 10000,
      "totalInvestedByYearEnd": 120000,
      "corpusByYearEnd": 127391,
      "wealthGainedByYearEnd": 7391
    }
  ]
}

Lump-sum response has the same structure but with lumpSumAmount instead of monthlySipAmount.


Goal Planner

Reverse-SIP calculator: given a target corpus and duration, compute the required monthly SIP across multiple expected return rates.

  • Method: POST
  • URL: /api/calculator/goal_planner
  • Auth: Not required

Request body:

Parameter Type Required Constraints Description
targetCorpus number Yes > 0, max 1000 Cr Target corpus in INR
durationYears int Yes 1-40 Investment duration in years
returnRates number[] No Each 0-30, max 10 items, default [8,10,12,14,15] Annual return rates to compute SIP for
curl -s -X POST https://api.indvested.com/api/calculator/goal_planner \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"targetCorpus": 10000000, "durationYears": 15, "returnRates": [8, 10, 12, 15]}'
{
  "targetCorpus": 10000000,
  "durationYears": 15,
  "resultsPerReturnRate": [
    {
      "annualReturnRatePercent": 8,
      "requiredMonthlySip": 30259,
      "totalAmountInvested": 5446620,
      "wealthGained": 4553380,
      "formatted": { "locale": "en_IN", "requiredMonthlySip": "30,259" }
    },
    {
      "annualReturnRatePercent": 12,
      "requiredMonthlySip": 20017,
      "totalAmountInvested": 3603060,
      "wealthGained": 6396940,
      "formatted": { "locale": "en_IN", "requiredMonthlySip": "20,017" }
    }
  ]
}

requiredMonthlySip is the ceiling of the exact value to ensure the target corpus is always met.


SWP Calculator

Simulate a Systematic Withdrawal Plan with non-linear (randomized) returns, inflation, and lifestyle inflation. The simulation generates a random sequence of annual returns whose geometric mean matches your expected return exactly, modeling realistic non-linear market behavior.

  • Method: GET (returns parameter schema/help), POST (runs simulation)
  • URL: /api/calculator/swp_calculator
  • Auth: Not required

A GET request returns the parameter schema with descriptions, defaults, and constraints.

Request body:

Parameter Type Default Description
rule float 0.04 Withdrawal rule, max 0.2 (e.g., 0.04 = 4% rule)
startingCorpus float 5 Starting corpus in Crores (min 1)
primaryVestedDuration int 1 Years to grow corpus before withdrawals begin
yearsToCalculate int 15 Withdrawal period in years (max 30)
expectedReturn float 0.12 Expected CAGR as decimal, max 0.3 (e.g., 0.12 = 12%)
lowestExpectedReturn float -0.17 Worst-case annual return for simulation
highestExpectedReturn float 0.35 Best-case annual return for simulation
assumedInflation float 0.08 Annual inflation rate, max 0.1
lifestyleInflation float 0.05 Additional lifestyle inflation per year, max 0.15
withdrawalAmtPerYear float rule x corpus First-year withdrawal in Crores
curl -s -X POST https://api.indvested.com/api/calculator/swp_calculator \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "rule": 0.04,
    "startingCorpus": 5,
    "primaryVestedDuration": 1,
    "yearsToCalculate": 15,
    "expectedReturn": 0.12,
    "assumedInflation": 0.08,
    "lifestyleInflation": 0.05
  }'

Response includes:

  • initialInvestment — starting corpus details
  • yearlyData — year-by-year corpus tracking with withdrawal amounts and randomized returns
  • finalSummary — total withdrawn, final corpus, inflation-beating check
  • All monetary values are in Crores

COAST FI Calculator

COAST FI status checker and SIP gap planner. Computes the minimum corpus needed today to “coast” to your retirement target, checks if you’re already there, and calculates the required monthly SIP (fixed or step-up).

  • Method: GET (returns parameter schema/help), POST (computes result)
  • URL: /api/calculator/coast_fi_calculator
  • Auth: Not required

A GET request returns the parameter schema with descriptions, constraints, and an example request body.
