FD Calculation Methodology

Our FD calculator uses compound interest formulas based on the compounding frequency selected. For quarterly compounding, interest is calculated every 3 months and added to the principal. TDS is calculated at 10% on interest exceeding the threshold limits set by Indian tax laws.

Formula for Compound Interest:

A = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t)

  • A = Final Amount (Maturity Value)
  • P = Principal Amount
  • r = Annual Interest Rate (in decimal)
  • n = Compounding Frequency per year
  • t = Time period in years
Frequently Asked Questions

How does compounding frequency change FD maturity?

Higher compounding frequency (quarterly vs annually) results in higher maturity amounts due to interest being calculated more frequently on the accumulated amount.

What about TDS on FD interest?

Banks deduct TDS at 10% on FD interest if it exceeds ₹40,000 annually (₹50,000 for senior citizens). You need to provide PAN for TDS deduction.

Which banks offer the best FD rates?

FD rates vary by bank and tenure. Generally, small finance banks and some private banks offer higher rates than public sector banks. Always compare rates before investing and consider the bank's credibility.
