Example, let's
consider the case of Mr. Amit Kumar, a 60-year-old with a retirement
corpus of 40 lakhs. Amit has decided to diversify his investments by putting
some of his money into the equity market, fixed deposits, and implementing a Systematic
Withdrawal Plan to meet his monthly expenses.
Amit Kumar's Investment
in SWP: Rs. 20,00,000/-
Investment Period: 20
years
Expected Annual Return:
15%
Planned Monthly
Withdrawal: Rs. 15,000/-, with an annual increase of 9%
Total Withdrawn Amount in 20 years: Rs. 36,00,000
Even after withdrawing
a total of Rs. 36,00,000 over 20 years, Amit's investments have continued to
grow. At the end of the 20-year period, he will receive a total of Rs.
1,30,57,471.00.
However, if Amit were
to withdraw the same amount he assumes as interest on a monthly basis, he might
end up with a negative balance, or his investment may deplete entirely before
the 20-year mark.
