I am 28 M, and I want to know what corpus would be sufficient at the age of 55 to retire?

how much should I keep investing so that I can retire at 55?

TIA

Don't think about the max amount,
Think about your expenses.
Try to accumulate a amount which can give more than your per month expense.

Suppose you need 50k to survive now so mix it with 6% inflation per year and see how much it will be at the age of 55.
Then your corpus amount should generate your per month of expense in form of interests from FD, dividend returns, rental income from residential or commercial property,
If you have 10cr sitting in your savings account at the 55 then you may finish that amount in May be 5 years.
But if you can manage your money in such a way that you are getting 1 or 2 lakh per month even if the corpus is 5cr then you can retire without worries.

Why would you plan for retirement at 55. If that's the case then you might not need much planning for it. Your PF would reach around 1c and ur basic savings could do it for the remaining years of your life.
Plan for retirement at 45 and aim for 5Cr to 10Cr. That's what I would call a better life.
Buy properties as much as u can

sounds like a good plan. thanks!

Always aim for 10C

Invest aggressively

lets say ur monthly expense right now is 30000 and u r 28 year old, then at the age of 55, ur expense would be around 240000 considering historical inflation rates in India.
Per annum expenses would be around 2880000
for next 10 years after 55 with further inflation, it would be around 4 cr plus consolidated.
if you live long, the 10 year amount keep on increasing, may be 8 cr plus from 65-75 age.
So at 55 ,you should have atleast 12 cr as per ur current monthly expense value.
But if you can accumulate 12 cr at age 40, u can retire asap.
Do all calculations acoordingly as per ur actual monthly exp right now.
and don't go into depression that how will u accumulate so big amount 😆

Mutual funds , ppf , nps , gold , equity , property are few of the options ...
You can go on any website with MF or PPF calculator and check how much SIP would be required to reach the goal

thanks for the input

How much is your inhand. How much are you investing out of it.?

like

80k in hand after deductions.
started with SIP worth 15k

no value is sufficient if you're trying to build it from your salary only because you'll need as much money as you can have as you don't know exactly how much you'll live after retirement. There isn't any upper limit.
It's different if you have huge inheritance or some family business that you're involved in, or you're married, and both of you earn upwards of 1cr+ combined in hand today.
You can't factor in exact inflation, emergencies, your moods or urges or aspirations at that time, or in between.
Live in present, save as much as possible, try to build alternate income other than job like rental,or ask and help wife to start some small business if she's not working and keep doing the job till you can.
Retiring early and not doing anything after retirement is not a luxury for us middle class and our future generations to come.
All these influencers are just doing click bait to increase their subscriber base to earn as much as possible.

You will be involved in multiple extra work, which you normally don't do in other service based companies. But there is no benefits/perks for that, you just end up doing extra work!!
