SWP - Systematic Withdrawal Plan and MIS - Monthly Income Scheme
Systematic Withdrawal Plan – SWP
| Monthly Withdrawal | Corpus Size Needed (Approx.) | 4% Return | 5% Return | 6% Return | 7% Return |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ₹5,000 | ₹15,00,000 | ₹12,00,000 | ₹10,00,000 | ₹8,50,000 | ₹8,00,000 |
| ₹10,000 | ₹30,00,000 | ₹24,00,000 | ₹20,00,000 | ₹17,00,000 | ₹16,00,000 |
| ₹15,000 | ₹45,00,000 | ₹36,00,000 | ₹30,00,000 | ₹25,50,000 | ₹24,00,000 |
| ₹20,000 | ₹60,00,000 | ₹48,00,000 | ₹40,00,000 | ₹34,00,000 | ₹32,00,000 |
| ₹25,000 | ₹75,00,000 | ₹60,00,000 | ₹50,00,000 | ₹42,50,000 | ₹40,00,000 |
💡 Explanation (What This Table Means)
This table shows how much investment (corpus) you need to generate a fixed monthly withdrawal through a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) at various expected annual return rates (4%, 5%, 6%, 7%).
An SWP works like this:
-
You invest a lump sum amount in a mutual fund (usually a debt or balanced fund).
-
Every month, you withdraw a fixed amount (for example, ₹5,000, ₹10,000, etc.).
-
The remaining balance continues to earn returns.
-
Thus, it provides a regular income while keeping your money invested.
📊 Example Explanation
Suppose you want a monthly income of ₹10,000:
-
If your mutual fund gives 4% return, you’ll need a corpus of ₹30,00,000.
-
If it gives 7% return, you’ll need only ₹16,00,000.
That means the higher the return, the lower the required investment for the same monthly withdrawal.
⚙️ Usefulness of SWP
✅ Provides regular monthly income for retirees or those needing a steady cash flow.
✅ Offers tax efficiency compared to fixed deposits.
✅ Allows capital appreciation on the remaining corpus.
✅ Keeps funds liquid and flexible — you can stop or modify withdrawals anytime.

Comparison between SWP and MIS
Comparing SWP (Systematic Withdrawal Plan) and MIS (Monthly Income Scheme) is key to choosing the smarter investment for a regular monthly income.
Here’s a clear and professional comparison that highlights which is more advantageous and why:
💼 1. Nature of Investment
| Aspect | SWP (Systematic Withdrawal Plan) | MIS (Monthly Income Scheme) |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Mutual Fund-based plan (market-linked) | Fixed-income plan (bank/post office) |
| Investment Risk | Moderate to variable (depends on fund type) | Low (capital protection guaranteed) |
| Flexibility | Highly flexible — can start, stop, or change withdrawals anytime | Rigid — fixed tenure (5 years in Post Office MIS) |
✅ Advantage: SWP wins for flexibility and liquidity.
📈 2. Returns and Growth Potential
| SWP | MIS |
|---|---|
| Returns vary (typically 6–10% in debt/balanced funds) | Fixed return (6.6–7.4% approx.) |
| The remaining corpus continues to grow | Corpus remains constant, no compounding after maturity |
✅ Advantage: SWP offers higher potential returns and capital appreciation over time.
💰 3. Tax Efficiency
| SWP | MIS |
|---|---|
| Only capital gains are taxed — lower tax due to indexation benefits if held >3 years | The entire interest is taxable as income |
| Can plan withdrawals to minimize tax burden | No such flexibility |
✅ Advantage: SWP is more tax-efficient, especially for long-term investors.
🔄 4. Liquidity and Control
| SWP | MIS |
|---|---|
| Can redeem anytime; no penalty for stopping SWP | Premature withdrawal has a penalty |
| Can modify withdrawal amount anytime | Fixed payout; cannot change |
✅ Advantage: SWP gives greater control over your money.
🧓 5. Suitability
| SWP | MIS |
|---|---|
| Suitable for retirees or investors seeking inflation-beating monthly income | Suitable for conservative investors who want a guaranteed income |
| Ideal for long-term wealth creation with periodic income | Ideal for short to medium-term fixed income needs |
✅ Advantage: SWP is better for long-term financial planning and inflation-adjusted income.
⚖️ Final Comparison Summary
| Criterion | Preferable Option |
|---|---|
| Flexibility | SWP |
| Return Potential | SWP |
| Capital Protection | MIS |
| Tax Efficiency | SWP |
| Liquidity | SWP |
| Simplicity | MIS |
🎯 Conclusion
If you want:
-
Stability and zero risk: choose MIS (Post Office or Bank).
-
Regular income with growth and tax advantage: choose SWP (especially in debt or balanced mutual funds).
In short —
👉 MIS = Safety First
👉 SWP = Smart Flexibility with Growth
