CAGR calculator

Calculate compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from a starting value, an ending value and the number of years. Useful for revenue, profit, prices or any figure that changes over time.

What it was worth at the start

What it is worth at the end

CAGR
20.11%
Total change over the period
150.00%
Absolute change
₹1,50,000

CAGR smooths the path: it shows the steady rate that would give the same end point, not what happened in each year.

How it works

CAGR = (Ending value ÷ Starting value)^(1 ÷ years) − 1

Assumptions

  • Only the start and end points matter. Ups and downs in between are ignored, and no cash flows (such as extra deposits or dividends) are included.
  • Use the same measure at both ends, for example revenue at the start and revenue at the end.
