Future Perfect

The future perfect verb form is as follows:

[perfect participle of main verb] [future tense form of होना]

For example: मैं तीन घंटे चला होऊंगा – “I will have walked for three hours”

Please note that this verb form is a rare verb form. It is more idiomatic in Hindi to say “मैं तीन घंटे तक चलूँगा” – “I will have walked for 3 hours”. In other word, in Hindi, there is no explicit distinction in aspect.

The future perfect indicates an action that the speaker anticipates to be completed at some time in the future. It combines the perfect aspect with the future tense.
