Break-Even Point Calculator

Breakeven point is the sales volume at which revenue equals total costs, resulting in zero profit and zero loss. For a business with ₹1,00,000 monthly fixed costs (rent, salaries) and ₹50 contribution margin per product (price minus variable cost), breakeven is 2,000 units sold monthly. Understanding breakeven is critical for startups planning when they'll become profitable, for evaluating product viability, and for pricing strategy. A product with very high breakeven volume might not be viable in your market. Conversely, achieving breakeven marks a major milestone—the point beyond which every sale becomes profit. Financial institutions consider breakeven as a key metric; businesses below breakeven are loss-making and risky. In Indian startups, achieving breakeven within 18-24 months is often considered good progress. This calculator helps answer crucial questions: How many units must we sell to break even? and At what sales value do we stop losing money? Essential for feasibility analysis and monthly target setting.
