Calculate the Return on Investment for any asset — stocks, property, business, or savings. Enter the initial investment, final value and holding period to get both the total ROI and the annualised CAGR.
About the ROI Calculator
ROI is the universal yardstick for any investment. However, without accounting for time, it can mislead — a 100% ROI over 15 years is only 4.7% CAGR. Annualising via CAGR lets you compare across investments of different durations fairly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good ROI for India investments?
Depends on the asset: equity funds historically ~12% CAGR, real estate ~8%, FDs ~7%, gold ~10% (all long-term). Higher return always means higher risk.
Why use CAGR instead of just total ROI?
A 200% ROI over 30 years is only 3.6% CAGR — less than an FD. CAGR standardises returns per year so you can compare any investment fairly.
