If you continue to invest in one mutual fund scheme in small doses, it can – and often does – grow to a large corpus over a period of time. This multiplier effect is referred to as ‘compounding’ in the investing parlance.

This means growth of investment in the first few years gets added to the principal amount. And the return on initial investment in the later years gets added to it, thus accelerating the pace of return. The effect of compounding is so potent that — it is metaphorically also referred to as ‘magic’.

Here, we handpick one mutual fund and monitor its return since its inception and estimate the overall growth of the corpus if someone had been investing since the launch of the scheme.

If someone were investing 11,000 for the past three years, the investment would have grown to 5.46 lakh by investing only 3,96,000.

In five years time, the investment would have swelled to 11.10 lakh by investing 6,60,000 only. And if someone were consistently investing 11,000 since the launch of the scheme, the corpus would have grown to one crore by growing at an annualised rate of 14.98 percent.
