Understanding Sales Growth

Sales growth is a key performance indicator that measures the increase in your business’s revenue over time. A positive sales growth rate indicates business expansion, while a negative rate may signal market or operational challenges.

Typical Use Cases for Sales Growth Analysis

Note: Sales growth is most meaningful when considered in the context of factors such as seasonality, pricing changes, and marketing activity.

Practical Example 

If:

• Current Period Sales = ₹12,00,000
• Previous Period Sales = ₹10,00,000

Then:

Sales Growth %=(12,00,000−10,00,000/10,00,000)×100=20%

Interpretation:

You achieved a 20% increase in sales compared to the previous period.
