6Understanding Inflation and Purchasing Power Loss
Use our Inflation Impact Calculator to see how price rises affect your budget. Inflation is the rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services rises, subsequently eroding currency purchasing power. If inflation is 6% per year, an item that costs ₹100 today will cost ₹106 next year. Over 15 years, a lifestyle that costs ₹50,000 monthly will cost ₹1.2 Lakhs monthly simply to buy the exact same goods.

How do I calculate future inflation impact on savings?
Use our inflation calculator by inputting your current monthly costs, average expected inflation rate, and years in the future to see your purchasing power decay.
