How to Use CAGR Calculator

Streamline your personal financial planning with an easy, automated process — calculate, plan, and achieve your financial targets.

1STEP 01

Enter the initial and final investment values

Input the starting value of your investment (the amount originally invested or the value at the beginning of the measurement period) and the ending value (the current or final value of the investment). Both values should be in rupees and refer to the same investment, do not mix values from different instruments.

2STEP 02

Enter the investment period

Input the number of years over which the investment grew from the initial to the final value. For periods less than a year, you can enter decimal values (e.g., 1.5 for 18 months). CAGR is most meaningful for periods of 1 year or more, for shorter periods, absolute return is typically a more useful measure.

3STEP 03

Read and interpret your CAGR

The calculator returns the annualised compound growth rate as a percentage. Use this figure to compare against a benchmark (e.g., the Nifty 50 CAGR over the same period), or against other investments of the same duration. A higher CAGR indicates faster compounding growth, but always consider the risk taken to achieve it.
