Inflation alert: ₹50,000 could lose nearly 70% of its value in 20 years

Financial experts warn that inflation could sharply reduce the value of savings over the next 20 years.
At 6% annual inflation, ₹50,000 received in 20 years would have the buying power of just ₹15,600 today.
• Someone spending ₹50,000 monthly today may need around ₹1.6 lakh monthly in 20 years to maintain the same lifestyle.
Experts advise starting retirement savings early and planning for rising healthcare, housing & daily living costs.
