Meera, aged 62, buys an immediate annuity with a purchase price of ₹20,00,000 and an annuity rate of 6.5% per annum payable annually in arrears, with no return of purchase price. What is her annual annuity payout?

The annual annuity is the purchase price multiplied by the annuity rate: 20,00,000 × 6.5% gives ₹1,30,000 per year. With no return of purchase price, the payout is simply this yield on the amount invested.
