About Fixed Deposits

A Fixed Deposit (FD) is a financial instrument provided by banks or NBFCs which provides investors a higher rate of interest than a regular savings account, until the given maturity date. It may or may not require the creation of a separate account.

How FD Calculator Works

The FD calculator uses the following formula to calculate maturity amount:

A = P (1 + r/n)nt

Where:

  • A = Maturity amount
  • P = Principal amount
  • r = Annual interest rate
  • n = Number of times interest is compounded per year
  • t = Tenure in years

Benefits of Fixed Deposits

  • Guaranteed returns
  • Higher interest rates than savings accounts
  • Flexible tenure options
  • Loan/overdraft facility against FD
  • Tax-saving FD options available

Frequently Asked Questions

How is FD interest calculated?

FD interest is calculated using compound interest formula: A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt), where A is maturity amount, P is principal, r is annual interest rate, n is compounding frequency per year, and t is time in years. Our calculator automatically computes this for you.

What is the minimum amount for FD?

The minimum amount varies by bank. Most banks allow FDs starting from ₹1,000 to ₹5,000. Some private banks may have higher minimums around ₹10,000. Our calculator works with any amount above ₹1,000.

Are FD interest rates fixed for entire tenure?

Yes, the interest rate is fixed when you open the FD and remains the same for the entire tenure, regardless of market fluctuations. This is one of the main advantages of fixed deposits.

Can I withdraw my FD before maturity?

Yes, but premature withdrawals usually attract a penalty of 0.5-1% on the interest rate. Some banks may offer partial withdrawals without breaking the entire FD. The exact terms depend on the bank's policy.

Are FDs taxable?

Yes, interest earned on FDs is taxable as per your income tax slab. Banks deduct TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) if interest exceeds ₹40,000 (₹50,000 for senior citizens) in a financial year. Tax-saving FDs have a 5-year lock-in period.
