Hi Shekar, Payback is basically a financial tool to see how much it takes to recover your invest, in other words break even.
If I invest Rs. 100 in one project which gives me following returns - 1 year Rs. 30, 2 year Rs. 40, 3 year Rs. 60. We can see that I recover my investment / break even in somewhere in 3 year. We can assume that Rs. 60 occur evenly throughout the year and we come to payback period of 2.5 years For more on this topic, you can simply do a google search. There is no in-build function for this in Excel.
