Emergency fund calculator - how to use this tool
Plan how much to set aside as emergency corpus from monthly expenses (Saarthi+).
An emergency fund calculator sizes your safety buffer from real monthly expenses-typically 3-6 months, more with variable income or dependants. Build this before chasing returns, so a job loss or medical bill never forces you to break investments or borrow.
Adjust sliders to stress-test assumptions, review the visual breakdown where shown, and export or share results. For a documented plan, talk to Saarthi Capital.

Frequently asked questions
How much emergency fund should I keep?
A common guideline is 3-6 months of essential expenses-more if your income is variable or you have dependants and EMIs. This emergency fund calculator sizes it from your actual monthly outgo.
Where should I park my emergency fund?
Prioritise liquidity and capital safety over returns-savings accounts, sweep-in FDs or liquid funds are common choices. Equity is unsuitable because you may need the money during a market fall.
Does my emergency fund need to beat inflation?
Not necessarily. Its job is availability, not growth. Once the buffer is in place, direct surplus savings toward goal-based investments instead.
