❓ FD & RD Calculator — Frequently Asked Questions

FD maturity formula (compound interest, most common): A = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t). Where A = maturity amount, P = principal, r = annual rate as decimal, n = compounding frequency (quarterly = 4), t = years. Example: ₹1 lakh at 7% for 2 years quarterly: A = 1,00,000 × (1 + 0.07/4)^(4×2) = ₹1,14,986. Interest = ₹14,986.
FD interest rates in India 2026: SBI 6.80%–7.00%, HDFC 7.10%–7.40%, ICICI 7.00%–7.25%, Kotak 7.40%, Axis 7.10%–7.20%, Post Office NSC 7.50% (5-year). Senior citizens get 0.25%–0.50% extra. Small finance banks like AU, ESAF, Suryoday offer 8%–9% but with higher risk.
Yes — FD interest is added to your income and taxed at your slab rate. Banks deduct TDS at 10% when annual interest exceeds ₹40,000 (₹50,000 for seniors). Submit Form 15G (regular) or 15H (senior citizen) if your total income is below the taxable limit to avoid TDS. Net return after 30% tax on a 7% FD is effectively about 4.9%.
FD: Invest a lump sum once, earn interest on the full amount from day 1. Better for those with a large amount ready to invest. RD: Invest monthly installments, interest calculated on each installment. Better for salaried individuals who save regularly. For the same total amount invested, FD gives slightly higher returns because the full amount earns interest from the start.
A tax-saving FD has a mandatory 5-year lock-in and qualifies for Section 80C deduction up to ₹1,50,000. Current rates: SBI 6.50%, HDFC 7.00%, ICICI 7.00%. The principal investment gets tax benefit but the interest earned is fully taxable. You cannot break it before 5 years.
For long-term (5+ years): SIP in equity mutual funds historically returns 10–15% CAGR vs FD returns of 6.5–7.5%. ₹1 lakh invested for 10 years: FD at 7% = ₹1.97 lakh. SIP at 12% = ₹3.11 lakh. FD is better for short-term (1–3 years) and guaranteed returns. SIP is better for long-term wealth creation but carries market risk. Both are complementary in a balanced portfolio.
