What is Compounding?

A process where you earn interest on your principal plus the interest already earned — also called interest-on-interest.

Why It Beats Simple Interest

Unlike simple interest, compounding grows faster because each year’s earnings generate more earnings in the future.

Small Savings, Big Future

Even ₹2,000 invested monthly for 20 years at 12% can grow to ₹15.8 lakh — proves that patience pays.

Keys to Maximizing Compounding

Start early, invest regularly, reinvest returns, avoid withdrawals, and stay committed for the long term.

Where Compounding Works Best

FDs, RDs, SIPs, PPF, EPF, and long-term stock holdings — all benefit greatly from compounding.
