What Is a Fixed Deposit (FD)?

A Fixed Deposit is a secure investment where a lump sum is locked in for a fixed tenure at a guaranteed interest rate. This calculator estimates:

  • Maturity amount after the term ends.
  • Total interest earned during the tenure.

How Is FD Calculated?

The formula for compound interest:

A = P × (1 + r/n)ⁿᵗ
  • P = Principal amount
  • r = Annual interest rate (decimal)
  • n = Compounding frequency per year
  • t = Duration in years

This reflects what most banks use, typically compounding quarterly or monthly.

Why Use an FD Calculator?

  • Lock-in returns: You know your earnings upfront.
  • Flexible terms: Compare durations (1–30 years) and see maturity gains.
  • Easy planning: Use as a benchmark for low-risk savings or laddering strategies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I withdraw my FD before maturity?
Yes, premature withdrawal is allowed but may incur penalties or lower interest rates. Check bank-specific terms before breaking your FD prematurely.
What is a cumulative vs non-cumulative FD?
In a cumulative FD, interest is reinvested and paid at maturity. In a non-cumulative FD, interest is paid out periodically—monthly or quarterly—as income if you want cash flow.
