How the corpus is worked out
Your monthly expenses are grown at inflation until you retire. From then on, the corpus has to fund those expenses (still rising with inflation) every year until your planning age, while the remaining money keeps earning your post-retirement return. The corpus is the amount that runs out exactly at that age.
Plan to a generous age: running out at 82 is a far worse outcome than leaving some money behind. Healthcare costs often rise faster than general inflation, so consider a separate health buffer.
