What is a money leak?

A money leak is spending that leaves your account repeatedly without adding real value. It includes forgotten subscriptions, unused memberships, impulse app purchases, convenience fees, and autopay debits you stopped tracking.

How do I find where my money is going?

Check your last 60 days of UPI history, card statements, and wallet transactions. Look for repeat merchants, app-store charges, food delivery, shopping, and any debit labeled “AutoPay” or “mandate.”

Should I start with budgeting or leak detection?

Start with leak detection. Budgeting works better when you have already removed the noise. Plugging leaks first gives you instant free cash, which makes every budget easier to follow.

How much can I realistically save in 30 days?

Most people can recover 20–40% of their identified leaks in the first month by cancelling unused subscriptions, reducing food delivery frequency, and pausing impulse shopping.

Is this financial advice?

No. This calculator is an educational tool to help you review your own spending. For personalized financial advice, speak with a SEBI-registered investment advisor.
