Formula to Calculate ELSS Returns

Understanding the formula behind the ELSS calculator gives you a better grasp of how your investments grow over time. The calculator uses the compound interest formula to estimate returns:

ELSS Returns Formula:

FV = P ×(1 +rn)(n × t)

Where:

  • FV = Future Value (Total amount at maturity)
  • P =Investment amount (lump sum or periodic contribution)
  • r =Annual rate of return (in decimal form)
  • n =Number of times the interest is compounded in a year (usually 1 for ELSS)
  • t =Time (Investment duration in years)

Tax Savings Calculation:

For tax savings, the calculator considers:

  • A maximum deduction of ₹1.5 lakh per year under Section 80C.
  • Contributions exceeding ₹1.5 lakh are not eligible for further tax benefits.

You may rapidly assess possible profits and tax savings by using the ELSS calculator instead of doing calculations by hand.
