Becoming a crorepati is possible even with Rs. 5000 SIP! In this post we will see 5 ways to become a crorepati and it is just a matter of time to reach this milestone.
Becoming a crorepati is just a matter of time when proper plan is executed.

You have to be consistent to reach this important milestone. Let’s see 5 ways to become a crorepati using Excel calculations.

5 ways to become a crorepati
1. Mutual Fund SIP – 15 / 15 / 15 rule
This is the first way to achieve the milestone of Rs. 1 crore and it works is this way:
If you invest Rs. 15,000 per month as SIP with an expected returns of 15% per year in best mutual funds, you’ll become a crorepati in next 15 years.
Here is the excel screenshot of how this works:
I have already explained you how mutual fund returns are calculated in SIP & Lump sum here in this article.
If you cannot afford to start with Rs. 15,000 SIP per month, you can start with a small amount you can afford to save or invest in mutual funds. The important thing here is to give time to the market to see the compounding effect to grow your profits over time in mutual funds.

2. Mutual Fund SIP – 10 / 18 / 15 rule
Here’s the second way to become a crorepati:
If you invest Rs. 10,000 per month as SIP with an expected returns of 15% per year in best mutual funds, you’ll become a crorepati in next 18 years.
Here we have slightly reduced the SIP amount to Rs. 10,000 if this is what is feasible to you to achieve the milestone.
Below screenshot shows you the calculations in excel:
You can read more about the Types of Mutual Funds here. Equity mutual funds can help you to invest in shares of companies, that can help you to grow your invested money exponentially. But you should be ready to take risk while investing in equity mutual funds to get good rewards over long term. The risk decreases with the increase in your investment time.

3. Mutual Fund SIP – 5 / 22 / 15 rule
Here’s another way to become a crorepati:
If you invest Rs. 5,000 per month as SIP with an expected returns of 15% per year in best mutual funds, you’ll become a crorepati in next 22 years.
Again we have slightly reduced the SIP amount to Rs. 5,000 so that anyone can afford to keep aside this amount to be saved to achieve the milestone.
Below screenshot shows you the calculations in excel with Rs. 5000 SIP:
4. Step up SIP – 5 / 18 / 15 rule
Now, in order to reduce the tenure with Rs. 5000 SIP, we can use Step up SIP which helps us to increase the SIP amount every year in order to reach the goal before time.
Since our income also increases every year with the help of salary increments and bonuses, it would be wise to increase our SIP amounts as well.
If you invest Rs. 5,000 per month as SIP with an expected returns of 15% per year in best mutual funds, and increase SIP every year by Rs. 1000 you’ll become a crorepati in next 18 years.
That’s the reduction of period by 4 years with same SIP as you started in method #3!

5. PPF – Public Provident Fund
Here’s another great way to become a crorepati – PPF or Public Provident Fund is a government backed saving scheme with a lock-in period of 15 years.
If you invest Rs. 12,500 monthly for next 25 years, you’ll accumulate Rs. 1 crore with expected interest rate of 7% annually.
Here are few features of PPF:
- PPF or Public Provident Fund is a savings scheme offered by the Government of India.
