Calculate XIRR on your irregular SIP investments and mutual fund portfolio. Get your true annualised return considering the timing of every cash flow.
Enter dates in YYYY-MM-DD format
HOW IT WORKS
Add every SIP or lumpsum investment with its exact date. Each investment is an outflow (negative cash flow in XIRR logic).
Enter the current date and current portfolio value. This is the final inflow used to calculate your return.
XIRR tells you your actual annual return considering the timing of every investment — more accurate than simple return % for irregular investments.
FAQ
XIRR (Extended Internal Rate of Return) is the annualised return that accounts for the timing of each cash flow. Simple return % ignores when you invested. If you invested ₹1L in January and ₹1L in December and the portfolio is ₹2.5L today, simple return shows 25% — but XIRR correctly shows that the December investment had only a few months to grow, while the January investment had the full year.
XIRR solves for the rate r such that the sum of present values of all cash flows equals zero: NPV = Σ [Cash Flow / (1 + r)^(t/365)] = 0, where t is the number of days from the first cash flow. It is solved iteratively — the same method used by Excel and mutual fund platforms.
For equity mutual funds: > 12% is excellent, 8-12% is good, 5-8% is average. For debt funds: 6-8% is good. For ELSS: > 12% is excellent. Compare your XIRR against the benchmark index (Nifty 50) XIRR for the same investment period to know if you are outperforming or underperforming.
This can happen if you invested recently. XIRR annualises the return, so a 10% gain in 3 months shows as ~40% XIRR, while a 10% gain over 2 years shows as ~5% XIRR. If you see unexpectedly negative XIRR, check that all dates are correct and the current value entry is accurate.
