Buying power of ₹1 in 2014
If you had ₹1 in your hand in 2014, its adjusted value for inflation today would be ₹1.56. Put another way, you would need ₹1.56 to beat the rising inflation. When ₹1 becomes equivalent to ₹1.56 over time, the "real value" of a single Indian rupee decreases. In other words, a rupee will pay for fewer items at the store.
This effect explains how inflation gradually erodes the value of a rupee. By calculating the value in 2014 rupees, it's evident how ₹1 loses its worth over 8 years.

How to calculate the inflated value of ₹1 in 2014
To calculate the change in value between 2014 and today, we use the following inflation rate formula:
CPI Today / CPI in 2014 x Rupee Value in 2014 = Current Rupee Value
By plugging the values into the formula above, we get:
9248.3472/ 5931.78 x ₹1 = ₹1.56
To buy the same product that you could buy for ₹1 in 2014, you would need ₹1.56 in 2022.
To calculate the cumulative or total inflation rate in the past 8 years between 2014 and 2022, we use the following formula:
CPI in 2022 - CPI in 2014 / CPI in 2014 x 100 = Cumulative Inflation Rate
By inserting the values to this equation, we get:
( 9248.3472 - 5931.78 / 5931.78) x 100 = 55.91%
Alternate method to calculate today's value of money after inflation - Using compound interest formula
Given that money changes over time due to inflation, which acts as compound interest, we can use the following formula:
FV = PV (1+i/100)^n
where,
- FV = Future value
- PV = Present value
- i: Average interest rate (inflation)
- n: Number of times the interest is compounded (i.e. # of years)
The future value in this case represents the amount obtained after applying the inflation rate to our initial value. In other words, it indicates how much ₹1 is worth today. We have 8 years between 2022 and 2014. The average inflation rate was 5.7084941656434%.
Plugging in the values into the formula, we get:
1 (1+ % 5.71/ 100 ) ^ 8 = ₹1.56
