For retirement calculation, how to calculate the corpus value required based on monthly income needed? Also, what is the best way to invest the corpus to get this monthly income?

Ans: There are multiple ways to calculate the required retirement corpus

1. Estimate monthly expenses, adjust it for inflation, and multiply by the expected retirement duration.

2. Corpus = (Monthly Income Needed * 12) * Life Expectancy in Retirement / Expected Return Rate (inflation adjusted)).

3. However, I recommend you to use free financial calculators available on the google to calculate present value of requirement.

Remember there's no single "best" way to invest, as it depends on your risk tolerance, time horizon, and goals. However, a good asset allocation portfolio will help you to attain your goal easily. Invest in a mix of equity, debt, and consider annuities for steady income, while periodically reviewing and adjusting your portfolio.
