FD Calculator

(Fixed Deposit)

See what a fixed deposit is worth on the day it matures, how much of that is interest, and what it pays you instead as regular income, monthly to yearly.

The deposit

What you put in, and the rate your bank quotes.

Five lakh

One amount, paid in at the start. Nothing is added later.

The yearly rate on the bank's card. Senior citizens are usually offered about half a per cent more.

How long you leave it

A fixed deposit is locked for the term you pick.

Deposit type

Interest stays in and earns interest of its own. The bank pays everything on the maturity date.

Compounded

Interest is added to the deposit every quarter and earns interest of its own from then on. This is what Indian banks actually do.

Maturity value = P × (1 + r ÷ 4)4t, where P is the deposit, r the yearly rate and t the term in years. A bank's figure can differ by a few rupees, because each bank rounds its own way. A deposit that pays the interest out earns nothing on that interest, and banks usually quote a slightly lower rate for it. Interest is taxable at your slab rate, and TDS applies above ₹50,000 of interest in a year.

Before you rely on these numbers

  • This is an illustrative tool, not investment advice and not a recommendation to buy or sell any security or product.
  • Every figure is a projection built on the assumptions shown, which you can change. Actual returns vary and can be negative.
  • Returns are assumed to be steady year on year. Real markets are not, and a poor sequence of returns close to your goal changes the outcome even when the average does not.
  • Figures are before tax, exit loads and fund charges, and assume every contribution is made on time.
  • Nothing you type is sent anywhere. The calculation runs entirely in your browser and nothing is stored.
