What is ROI?
ROI (Return on Investment) is a key financial metric that measures the performance of an investment. It indicates how much profit or gain you’ve made in relation to the amount of money invested.
Basic ROI Formula:
ROI (%) = (Final Return - Initial Investment) ÷ Initial Investment × 100
This gives you a percentage value that shows how much return you made on every ₹1 invested.
Why ROI Matters:
- It shows if an investment was profitable or not.
- Helps compare multiple investments regardless of amount or time.
- Supports decision-making for future investments.
- Allows both short-term and long-term performance evaluation.
There are two types of ROI the calculator provides:
- Absolute ROI: Total percentage return on your investment, without considering time.
- Annualized ROI: Yearly return rate, adjusted for the duration of the investment-useful for comparing investments with different time periods.
