How Priya & Arjun planned for their daughter’s MBA
Real families plan in the kitchen, not on spreadsheets. Priya and Arjun live in Bengaluru and are saving for their 8-year-old daughter Anika’s MBA. Their numbers show how education inflation shapes the target.
- Priya & Arjun — Tech professionals in Bengaluru, want to send their 8-year-old daughter Anika for an MBA in 10 years.
- Current annual cost: ₹8L for a top B-school. At 10% inflation → ₹20.7L in 10 years.
- Total corpus needed: ₹41.4L (2-year program). They already have ₹5L saved.
- Using the simulator: They need a monthly SIP of ₹21,000 at 10% returns to reach the target.
- Action taken: Started two equity SIPs (₹11,000 + ₹10,000) and topped up with an annual bonus allocation.
- Result: On track to reach ₹45L by 2036 — with a safety margin. Tracked in the Investment Wallet.
Education planning best practices for India
Seven rules that turn quiz knowledge into real financial progress. Each one has a linked calculator or wallet so you can act immediately after learning.
- Start early — time beats timing
- Increase SIP annually to beat inflation
- Tax check via Tax Simulator
- Start early: A 5-year head start can halve the required SIP.
- Increase SIP annually: Top-up by 5-10% each year to stay ahead of inflation.
- Use equity for long-term: For goals over 7 years, equity mutual funds offer better inflation-beating returns.
- Review annually: Recalculate at every salary hike or bonus to stay on track.
- Protect with insurance: Ensure the goal is funded even if something happens to you — use the Insurance Pro Simulator.
- Track in wallets: Use the Investment Wallet to monitor your SIPs and corpus.
- Avoid education loans if possible: They start with a burden. Save first, borrow only as a last resort.
