Calculators
Free calculators for traders and investors. They run in your browser, store nothing, and show the formula they use.
About our calculators
Results are estimates for education only. The brokerage calculator uses each broker's published tariff and the statutory rates shown on brokers' pricing pages; return calculators use the rate you enter, which is an assumption and not a forecast.

How we build and check them
Every calculator shows its formula on its own page, with a worked example you can reproduce by hand. The worked examples are re-run against the live calculators whenever we change them, and we test edge cases such as zero, blank, negative and very large inputs so that the tools never display a meaningless figure. Fee inputs in the brokerage calculator are refreshed on the same quarterly schedule as our broker reviews.
Limits worth knowing
- Returns are not predictable. SIP, lumpsum and goal results assume a constant return. Real markets move unevenly and can fall for years.
- Tax is not included. Capital gains tax, TDS on interest and tax on dividends depend on your situation and change with the Union Budget.
- Your contract note is the final word on what a trade cost. Small charges such as IPFT and clearing fees are not modelled.
- Nothing you enter leaves your browser. The calculators run entirely on your device and we do not store inputs.
