Find out how much you need to save for a comfortable retirement
Retirement planning involves estimating how much money you will need after you stop working, accounting for inflation, and then working backward to determine how much you need to save today.
Starting at 25 vs 35 can mean needing to save 3x less per month thanks to compounding.
Medical costs inflate at 10%–12%. Maintain health insurance and set aside a medical emergency fund.
Mix equity, debt, PPF, and NPS for a balanced portfolio that shifts toward safety as you near retirement.
