What is FD Calculator?

A Fixed Deposit (FD) is a savings instrument offered by banks and NBFCs where you deposit a lump sum for a fixed tenure at a guaranteed interest rate. It is one of the safest investment options in India. Interest can be compounded monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or annually — or paid out as simple interest.

How to use VyajPay's FD Calculator?

Enter your deposit amount, the FD interest rate offered by your bank, the tenure in years, and the compounding frequency. The calculator shows your maturity amount and total interest earned. Most Indian banks compound FD interest quarterly by default.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Once you book an FD, the interest rate is locked in for the entire tenure, regardless of RBI rate changes.

Yes. FD interest is added to your income and taxed at your applicable slab rate. TDS is deducted at 10% if interest exceeds ₹40,000 per year (₹50,000 for senior citizens).

Monthly compounding gives slightly more than quarterly, which gives more than annual, for the same stated rate. The difference is small but meaningful for large amounts.
