This chart shows a calculation of buying power equivalence for $1 in 2014 (price index tracking began in 1957).
For example, if you started with $1, you would need to end with $1.70 in order to "adjust" for inflation (sometimes refered to as "beating inflation").
When $1 is equivalent to $1.70 over time, that means that the "real value" of a single Indian rupee decreases over time. In other words, a rupee will pay for fewer items at the store.
This effect explains how inflation erodes the value of a rupee over time. By calculating the value in 2014 dollars, the chart below shows how $1 is worth less over 10 years.
According to the OECD and the World Bank, each of these INR amounts below is equal in terms of what it could buy at the time:

Our calculations use the following inflation rate formula to calculate the change in value between 2014 and today:
Then plug in historical CPI values. The Indian CPI was 94.4533 in the year 2014 and 160.1940998279254 in 2024:
$1 in 2014 has the same "purchasing power" or "buying power" as $1.70 in 2024.
To get the total inflation rate for the 10 years between 2014 and 2024, we use the following formula:
Plugging in the values to this equation, we get:
