Track the monthly growth of your retirement corpus with this Excel sheet. This is a combination of the low-stress retirement calculator and the visual SIP tracker.
On popular demand, I have now included the possibility to track the growth of real estate (or any other) investment.
The user will have to first use the retirement calculator. The inputs of this sheet are used for tracking the corpus each month.
The monthly investment made in
- equity (stocks or mf)
- taxable debt
- tax-free debt
- any other instrument
should be entered by the user along with the total actual value of the instrument.
The progress of the each instrument can be tracked in the same sheet. The total investment can also be graphically tracked.

- This is meant only for disciplined investors.
- Use it once a month, preferably the month end.
- Enter the investments and value of the instruments and track them.
- Even if the instrument grows at exactly the same rate at which you expect it, there will be a small difference between the actual and expected value. This can be safely ignored.
- An experimental feature, how long would my corpus last? has been included. Please let me know if this gives meaningful numbers.
