What is inflation rate?
Inflation rate in India: The average inflation rate in India has historically been around 5-6%. This rate can significantly affect the future value of money.
Future value calculation: The future value of Rs 1 crore can be calculated using the formula: Future Value = Present Value * (1 + Inflation Rate) ^ Number of Years.
Using an average inflation rate: Assuming an average inflation rate of 6% for simplicity, we can plug the numbers into the formula.
Result interpretation: This means that by 2050, Rs 1 crore would have the purchasing power equivalent to about Rs 4.29 crore today, assuming a 6% inflation rate.
Variability: Keep in mind that actual inflation rates can vary, and factors like economic conditions, government policies, and global events can influence these rates.
Therefore, Rs 1 crore today may lose significant value over the years, and it is essential to consider investment options that can outpace inflation to maintain wealth.
