Every Holding Period

RPOWER rolling returns by holding period

A rolling window is every possible start date, not one. A five-year window starting in January is a different investment from one starting in February, and over twenty years there are a couple of hundred of them. What follows is the full spread of what each holding period actually produced.

1-year rolling returns

44.1% of windows made money

Across 211 separate 1-year holding periods, the median returned -6.7% a year. The worst lost 93.4% a year and the best made 396.4%.

Windows step forward one month at a time and are measured on month-end adjusted closing prices, so dividends are treated as reinvested. Overlapping windows share months by construction — that is what makes the spread a description of this stock's history rather than a sample of independent trials.

Against The Index

How often RPOWER beat the Nifty 50

Beating an index once is a result. Beating it across most of the periods an investor could have picked is a pattern. Over 15-year windows, RPOWER finished ahead of the Nifty 50 in 0.0% of the 43 periods both series cover.

1-year windows

Ahead in 30.8% of 211 periods.

3-year windows

Ahead in 27.8% of 187 periods.

5-year windows

Ahead in 19.0% of 163 periods.

7-year windows

Ahead in 3.6% of 139 periods.

10-year windows

Ahead in 0.0% of 103 periods.

15-year windows

Ahead in 0.0% of 43 periods.

Each window is compared against the index over the identical calendar months, on the same adjusted basis — not against an assumed rate of return.

How This Is Calculated

Reading these figures properly

Overlapping by design

Windows step forward one month at a time, so they share most of their months with each other. That is what makes this a description of RPOWER's actual history rather than a set of independent trials — and why the spread should not be read as a probability.

Month-end, total return

Measured on month-end closing prices adjusted for dividends and splits, so dividends count as reinvested. A window that opened or closed mid-month would differ a little in either direction.

Survivors only

RPOWERis in today's Nifty 500 universe. Companies that delisted or collapsed are not on this site at all, so the worst outcome shown here is the worst among the survivors.

Measured on data to 2026-08-31, from 2008-02-01. Full definitions are on our methodology page.

HELP CENTER

RPOWER rolling returns — common questions

Everything you need to know about this page and the data presented.

What are RPOWER rolling returns?
+

Over 15 years, Reliance Power Ltd. has been through 43 separate 15 years holding periods — one starting every month. The median returned -9.5% a year, the worst -19.7% and the best -5.6%. A rolling return measures every possible start date instead of one, which is why it answers a question a single headline CAGR cannot: how much the outcome depended on when you happened to buy.

Has RPOWER ever lost money over 10 years?
+

Yes. 95.2% of the 103 10 years periods on record ended below where they started, and the worst of them lost 37.9% a year — the stretch beginning March 2010. The median period returned -15.9% a year.

What is the worst 5 years RPOWER has ever had?
+

-53.1% a year, for the five years beginning March 2015. For contrast the best 5 years returned 102.9% a year, starting March 2020, and the median across all 163 periods was -15.5%. The gap between those two numbers is the part of the outcome that came down to timing rather than to the company.

Does holding RPOWER for longer reduce the risk?
+

On this record, yes. 1 year outcomes ranged from -93.4% to 396.4% a year — a spread of 489.8%. 15 years outcomes ranged from -19.7% to -5.6%, a spread of 14.1%. Longer holding periods narrowed the range of results, which is the usual pattern and the reason this page publishes every window rather than one. Narrowing the range is not the same as removing the risk.

How often has RPOWER beaten Nifty 50 over 15 years?
+

In 0.0% of the 43 15 years periods both series cover. Each window is compared against the index over the identical months, not against an assumed index return, so the comparison is a like-for-like record rather than a model.

How are rolling returns calculated here?
+

Windows step forward one month at a time on month-end closing prices adjusted for dividends and stock splits, so dividends are treated as reinvested. A window length is only published once there are at least twelve complete windows behind it — fewer than that describes an anecdote, not a distribution. Overlapping windows share months by construction, which is what makes this a description of the actual history of Reliance Power Ltd. rather than a sample of independent trials. Companies that delisted are not on this site at all, a survivorship bias worth holding in mind.

Is RPOWER a safe long-term investment?
+

That is not a question this page answers, and we do not make recommendations. What it can show you is the full range of what every holding period in the listed history of Reliance Power Ltd. actually produced — including the worst ones, which most performance figures leave out. Those are records of what happened, not forecasts. A stock that never had a losing decade may still have one, and holding a single company is a materially different risk from holding an index.
