How long could it take for ₹50 lakh corpus to reach ₹1 crore?

At an assumed annual return of 12%, a ₹50 lakh corpus could grow to ₹1 crore in just over six years, according to NDTV Profit. This aligns with the "Rule of 72", which estimates doubling time based on a consistent return. However, consistently earning 12% annually may not be realistic, as returns depend on macroeconomic conditions and global factors.
