How long will our retirement money last?

Your savings, spent month by month as prices rise, with any pension or rent: see the age it lasts to, how much you could spend for it to last, and what-ifs like a big medical bill.

What the numbers show

  • ⚠️At ₹50,000 a month (rising 6% a year), the money runs out at about age 78 — 12 years before 90.
  • 📌To last to age 90, you could spend up to about ₹32,902 a month to start (rising with prices) — or you'd need about ₹1.52 Cr saved for your ₹50,000 a month.
  • 📌Keep 1–2 years of spending in safe, easy-to-reach places (savings account, short FDs); the rest can be in steadier long-term options.

How it's worked out

Month by month the money earns its return and the spending (less any pension or rent) is taken out. Spending rises with prices once a year; pension and rent are taken as fixed. “You could spend up to” is the highest starting amount that still lasts to the age you chose.
