How to use this calculator

3

Choose tenure

Enter years, months, or days.

The formula explained

FD interest uses compound interest formula:

A = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t)

P = Principal   r = Rate/100   n = Compounding periods/year   t = Years
Most Indian banks compound quarterly (n=4). TDS at 10% applies if interest exceeds ₹40,000/year (₹50,000 for senior citizens).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an FD?

A Fixed Deposit is a financial instrument where you deposit a lump sum with a bank for a fixed period at a predetermined interest rate. It is one of the safest investments in India.

What is TDS on FD?

Banks deduct 10% TDS if your FD interest exceeds ₹40,000 in a financial year (₹50,000 for senior citizens). Submit Form 15G/15H to avoid TDS if your income is below taxable limit.

Which bank has the highest FD rate?

Small finance banks like Unity, Suryoday, and ESAF typically offer 8–9% on FDs. Large PSU and private banks offer 6.5–7.5%. Rates change frequently — check your bank directly.

Can I break an FD prematurely?

Yes but with a penalty — typically 0.5–1% less than the applicable rate for the actual tenure held.
