What is CAGR?

CAGR stands for Compound Annual Growth Rate. It shows the average annual growth rate of an investment over a specific period, assuming the investment grows at a steady compounded rate.

CAGR helps you understand how much an investment has grown each year on an average, even if the actual returns were different over the years. 

It is commonly used to review the performance of mutual funds, stocks, business investments, portfolios, real estate, and other long term investments.

Your CAGR depends mainly on the starting value of the investment, ending value of the investment, and the total investment period.

Understanding CAGR helps you compare different investments more clearly, review long term performance, and make better investment decisions based on annualized growth instead of only total returns.

Why is CAGR Important?

CAGR is important because it helps you understand the average annual growth rate of an investment over a period of time. Total returns alone may not show the true performance, especially when investments are held for different time periods.

CAGR can help you:

  • Understand how much your investment has grown annually on average
  • Compare different investments over the same or different time periods
  • Review long term performance of mutual funds, stocks, portfolios, or other assets
  • Avoid judging performance only by total return
  • Understand the effect of compounding over time
  • Evaluate whether your investment growth is aligned with your financial goals
  • Make better investment decisions with a clearer view of annualized returns

How Can a CAGR Calculator Be of use to you?

A CAGR calculator helps you calculate the average annual growth rate of your investment over a selected period. It brings the beginning value, ending value, and investment duration together in one place, so you can understand how your investment has grown on an annualized basis.

It can help answer questions such as:

  • What is the average annual return on my investment?
  • How much has my investment grown each year on average?
  • Is my investment performance aligned with my financial goals?
  • How can I compare two investments held for different time periods?
  • Has my portfolio delivered consistent long term growth?
  • Is my investment growth better than inflation or other benchmark returns?

How Does CAGR Calculators Work?

  • A CAGR calculator works by estimating the average annual growth rate of an investment over a selected period.
  • First, you enter the beginning value of the investment.
  • Then, you enter the ending value of the investment and the total investment period in years.
  • Based on these details, the calculator estimates the Compound Annual Growth Rate, which shows how much the investment has grown annually on average.

Formula

CAGR = [(Ending Value ÷ Beginning Value) ^ (1 ÷ Number of Years)] minus 1

Example

Beginning Value

₹5,00,000

Ending Value

₹10,00,000

Investment Period

5 years

Estimated CAGR

14.87% per annum

This helps you understand the annualized growth rate of your investment and compare investment performance with better clarity.

How to Use Accumen Wealth’s
CAGR Calculator

Enter the Initial Investment Value

Add the amount you originally invested, the starting value of your investment at the beginning of the period. You can type the figure directly or use the slider.

1

Enter the Final Investment Value

Add the current or final value of your investment, what it is worth at the end of the period you are measuring. This is the amount your investment has grown to.

2

Set the Duration of Investment

Choose the number of years between your starting and ending value. CAGR measures growth on an annual basis, so the duration is essential to the calculation.

3

Review Your CAGR

The calculator instantly displays your Compound Annual Growth Rate in the centre gauge. This is the smoothed annual rate at which your investment grew each year to reach its final value.

4

Check the Absolute Return

Review the absolute return, which shows the total percentage growth over the entire period — without spreading it across years. This helps you see the overall scale of growth at a glance.

5

Review the Total Gain and Times Growth

Check the total gain in rupees to see how much your investment earned, and the times growth multiple to understand how many times your money grew — for example, 2.5× means your investment grew two and a half times.

6

Use the Result for Planning

Use the CAGR to compare different investments on an equal footing, benchmark a fund or stock against its category, and judge whether an investment's annual growth matches your financial goals. Because CAGR is a smoothed figure, remember it does not reflect year-to-year ups and downs.
