Should I invest in Tesla?

Tesla is highly volatile. Past returns don't guarantee future results. Only invest what you can afford to lose.

How to invest in TSLA from India?

Through international brokers (Vested, INDmoney, Interactive Brokers), or via LRS up to $250,000/year. No direct Tesla ETF, but QQQ includes Tesla.

What if I invested $1,000 in Tesla at the 2010 IPO?

In 2010 (IPO year), the average split-adjusted price was ~$1.83. $1,000 would have bought ~546 shares, worth ~$142,000 today — a return of ~14,100%.

What if I invested ₹1 lakh in Tesla in 2013?

In 2013, the average price was ~$8.50 and ₹1 lakh ≈ $1,800. That would buy ~212 shares, worth ~₹46 lakhs today — a return of ~4,500%.

Is this better than a SIP investment?

Tesla has delivered extraordinary returns over longer periods but with extreme volatility — it dropped 65% in 2022. A 12% annual SIP in NIFTY 50 offers far more predictable compounding. For most Indian investors, a core SIP portfolio with a small Tesla allocation (5-10%) balances growth potential with stability.

How does this compare to a SIP?

Compare your results to investing in a Nifty 50 at ~12% annually. Use this as a baseline to evaluate your investment decision.

Important Limitations

Past performance ≠ future results

This calculator shows what did happen, not what will happen. Historical returns — even spectacular ones — do not guarantee similar results in the future. Markets change, industries shift, and individual companies face unique risks.

Prices are in USD

All stock and index prices are displayed in USD (the trading currency). If your local currency weakened against USD during the period, your actual return in local currency would be higher — and vice versa. We use current exchange rates, not historical ones.

Fees and taxes not included

Real-world returns would be reduced by brokerage fees, fund expense ratios (for indices), and capital gains taxes. These vary by country and can significantly impact net returns. Use the Killer Fees Calculator to estimate fee impact.

Split-adjusted prices

We use split-adjusted closing prices from Yahoo Finance. This means stock splits are accounted for automatically. If you compare our prices to other sources showing unadjusted prices, the numbers will look very different — both are correct, they just measure different things.
