About the Inflation Calculator – Future Cost
Inflation raises prices over time, so the same thing costs more in future. Enter today's cost, the expected yearly inflation and the number of years to see what it may cost then. With ₹50,000 today and 5% inflation, the cost after five years is about ₹63,814.
Use it to set realistic targets for education, medical care or retirement.
Inflation formula
Future cost = Cost today × (1 + inflation ÷ 100)^years
Things to keep in mind
- Different costs inflate at different rates; education and healthcare often rise faster than general prices.
- Use the result as your savings target, not today's price.
- Check how your investment return compares with inflation.
