Why Delay Costs So Much

Compounding rewards time in the market. The first years of a SIP look unimpressive — but they’re the ones doing the most work in the final years, because those early rupees compound the longest.

An example: ₹10,000/month for 25 years at 12% ≈ ₹1.89 crore. Delay by just 5 years (20 years invested) and you end with ≈ ₹99 lakh — almost half. Five years of waiting cost nearly ₹90 lakh, even though you only saved ₹6 lakh in actual cash invested.
