How this calculation works

Future cost = amount × (1 + inflation)^years. Purchasing power = amount / (1 + inflation)^years.

Assumptions and limits

Constant assumed inflation. Future cost and purchasing power answer different questions and are shown separately.

Default values are examples, not forecasts or product offers. Change them to reflect your situation. Calculations run without an account. No result is saved to your portfolio.

Example

Using Amount today (₹): 100000; Duration (years): 10; Assumed annual inflation (%): 6, future cost is ₹1,79,085.
