How far the current plan still falls short

Verdict

Use new regime

The new regime leaves more money in your pocket with your current deduction profile.

Re-check the choice whenever salary, HRA, or home-loan deductions change materially.

Old regime take-home

₹1.4L

Your estimated monthly take-home under the old regime.

New regime take-home

₹1.5L

Your estimated monthly take-home under the new regime.

Verdict

Emergency fund is healthy

Your liquidity base is improving, but may still need work.

Keep this corpus liquid and separate from long-term investments.

Target fund

₹5.3L

This is the liquidity buffer your profile calls for.

Shortfall

₹0

This is the gap you still need to fill.

Verdict

You are building

Your assets are ahead of liabilities.

Track this monthly and make sure new debt is improving earning power or quality of life.

Total assets

₹30.5L

Everything you own at current estimated value.

Total liabilities

₹4L

Everything you still owe.

Verdict

You need a recurring plan

Without a regular contribution, the goal is unlikely to be met on time.

Automate the required monthly amount and revisit the plan every six months.

Required SIP

Assumptions

The recommendation stays blunt, but the assumptions remain visible.

  • Uses AY 2026-27 slab assumptions published by official government sources.
  • Includes 4% health and education cess; surcharge is excluded — see combinedIncomeTax for the surcharge-inclusive total when capital gains are also present.
  • Assumes all entered deductions are valid and fully claimable.
  • Emergency fund target expands for dependents and volatile income.
  • Savings meant for emergencies should be liquid and low-risk.
  • Required SIP is the minimum contribution to hit the goal on the assumed return path.
  • FIRE target uses the safe withdrawal rule you provide.
  • Annual expenses are inflated to the retirement year before the withdrawal rule is applied.
