CAGR Calculator
CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) tells you how your portfolio has grown on an average annual basis over a specific period.
It answers a simple question:
“At what steady yearly rate would my portfolio have grown to reach its current value?”
Instead of just looking at total gains, CAGR gives you a clearer picture of long-term performance by factoring in time.

Why CAGR Matters for Your Investments
When reviewing your portfolio, absolute returns can sometimes be misleading. For example, a 50% return over 1 year is very different from a 50% return over 5 years.
CAGR helps you:
- Understand your portfolio’s average yearly growth
- Compare different funds or asset classes fairly
- Evaluate performance over long-term goals
- Benchmark your returns against market indices
It simplifies performance into a single annualized percentage, making comparisons easier and more meaningful.
How CAGR is Calculated
The formula used to calculate CAGR is:
CAGR = (Final Value / Initial Value) ^ (1 / Time Period) – 1
Where:
- Initial Value = Your starting portfolio value
- Final Value = Your current portfolio value
- Time Period = Number of years invested
Example – Portfolio Growth
If you invested ₹1,00,000 and your portfolio value grew to ₹10,00,000 in 5 years:
CAGR = (10,00,000 / 1,00,000)^(1/5) – 1 CAGR ≈ 58.9% per annum (illustrative)
This means your portfolio effectively grew at an average compounded rate of 58.9% every year over five years.
How to Use the CAGR Calculator
Enter your Initial Investment Value
Enter your Current / Final Portfolio Value
Enter the Time Period (in years or months)
The calculator instantly shows your annualized growth rate (CAGR).
How This Helps You
Using the CAGR calculator can help you:
- Review whether your portfolio is aligned with your financial goals
- Compare performance across different time periods
- Assess whether asset allocation changes are required
- Make better-informed long-term investment decisions
CAGR is especially useful for long-term investors who want to track consistent wealth creation.
Conclusion
CAGR gives you a simple yet powerful way to understand how your portfolio has grown over time. Instead of focusing only on total gains, it helps you see the average annual growth rate of your investments, making it easier to compare performance across different funds, asset classes, or time periods.
While it does not capture market ups and downs, CAGR provides a meaningful long-term perspective. Used correctly, it can support better financial planning, smarter asset allocation decisions, and clearer goal tracking.
Before making any investment decisions, consider reviewing your complete portfolio performance, risk profile, and financial objectives.
