Milestone Blueprint:
To accumulate ₹1 Crore at 12% CAGR, you need: ₹1,21,500/mo for 5 years, ₹43,000/mo for 10 years, ₹19,800/mo for 15 years, or only ₹10,000/mo for 20 years.
Accumulating your first ₹1 Crore is the most difficult milestone because your own principal deposits do 70%+ of the work early on. But once crossed, 12% annual compounding generates ₹12 Lakhs/year autonomously.
