## Frequently asked questions

### How does ₹2,00,000 at 12% for 10 years compare to the same in PPF?

A single ₹2,00,000 PPF deposit at 7.1% over 15 years (minimum lock-in) grows to about ₹5,60,000 including reinvestment. An equity lumpsum at 12% for 10 years gives ₹6,21,170. Equity outperforms PPF even over a shorter 10-year horizon when comparing a single deposit, though PPF contributions attract Section 80C deduction.

### What if I invest ₹2,00,000 in gold ETF vs equity mutual fund for 10 years?

Gold historically returns about 8–10% p.a. in India. At 9% for 10 years, ₹2,00,000 grows to about ₹4,73,421. At 12% in equity, it grows to ₹6,21,170, about ₹1,47,749 more. Equity has outperformed gold in most 10-year rolling periods historically, though gold diversifies the portfolio.

### Is a ₹2,00,000 lumpsum or ₹1,667/month SIP better over 10 years?

A ₹2,00,000 lumpsum at 12% for 10 years gives ₹6,21,170. A ₹1,667/month SIP for 10 years (₹2,00,040 total) gives about ₹3,87,000. The lumpsum gives roughly 60% more in final value, since the full ₹2,00,000 earns 12% compounding from the start.
