Can you retire with 1 Crore in India?

₹1 crore. For many Indian households, it's been the number every Indian has associated with financial freedom and retirement. But with the concept of FIRE and rules like The 25x Expense Rule, this ₹1 Crore soon changed from a goal to a stepping stone. But after our last retirement podcast with someone who actually retired with ₹1 Crore, one debate completely took over the comments - at one corner were people who thought that the guy had a number of 'privilege' that allowed him to retire, the other segment was in complete agreement that a person can retire with ₹1 Crore in India. Instead of answering these questions with opinions, we decided to test the idea itself. In this video, we put the ₹1 crore retirement dream under the microscope using realistic assumptions, practical calculations and situations that millions of Indians relate to. The results challenged some of our own expectations, and they certainly won't be what everyone expects. So, if you already have ₹1 Crore or will soon have, watch this video till the end before chasing the next big number. Maybe ₹1 Crore is your retirement number. One number. One question. A very different answer than you might expect.
