CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate)


📈 Meaning:

CAGR tells you the average annual growth rate of an investment over a period of time as if it grew at a steady rate every year, even though actual yearly returns may vary.


🧮 Formula:

CAGR = ( Ending Value\Beginning Value)^{1/n} - 1

where n = number of years


💡 Why it matters:

  • Smooths out volatility
  • Helps compare different investments
  • Useful in SIPs, mutual funds, business growth analysis

🔢 Example:

If an investment grows from ₹1,00,000 to ₹1,80,000 in 3 years:

CAGR ≈ 21.98% per year


⭐ Think long-term. CAGR shows the true growth story.
