Calculating FD returns involves understanding both simple and compound interest. These formulas help estimate how much your investment will grow over time, enabling you to make informed decisions.
Simple interest is calculated on the initial principal amount for the entire tenure. Here’s the formula for calculating it:
Simple Interest (SI) = P * R * T
Wherein,
P stands for Principal amount
R stands for Rate of interest
Example:
If you invest ₹50,000 at an interest rate of 7% p.a. for a tenure of 3 years, the simple interest would be:
Interest = 50,000 * 7% * 3 = ₹10,500
Compound interest is calculated on the initial principal and the interest accumulated over previous periods. Here’s the formula for calculating it:
A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)
Wherein,
A is the total amount of money collected after n years, including interest
P is the initial principal amount
r is the interest rate
n is the frequency of interest compounded per annum
Example:
If you invest ₹50,000 at an interest rate of 7% p.a. for a duration of 3 years, compounded annually, the interest earned would be:
In this case, P = ₹50,000, r = 7%, n = 1 (compounded annually), and t = 3 years
Hence, A = ₹50,000(1 + 0.07/1)^(1*3) = ₹61,252.45
Interest earned would be A - P = ₹61,252.45 - ₹50,000 = ₹11,252.45.

An FD calculator helps you compare interest rates, tenures, and estimate the returns upon maturity across different banks and NBFCs available on the platform. These factors contribute to better financial planning and informed decision-making.
The interest rate offered determines how much your investment will grow over time. A higher interest rate results in higher returns at maturity.
When investing, consider the institution's credit rating. Also, review the interest rate and deposit insurance coverage, if applicable. These factors ensure the safety of your investment and directly impact its profitability.
All FDs offered by banks are insured up to ₹5 Lakhs under the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) scheme. NBFC FDs are not covered under this scheme. You can check their CRISIL rating to assess security and reliability.
Most issuers offer an option to auto-renew your fixed deposit for the same tenure at the current interest rate. However, if you haven't opted for auto-renewal, the maturity amount will be transferred to your savings account at the end of the tenure.
You can break FDs with a premature withdrawal facility after completing the lock-in period. Typically, NBFCs have a lock-in period of 3 months, though this may vary by provider. Penalties may include an interest rate reduction of 0.5% to 1%, which could reduce your overall returns on the FD. It is important to note that premature withdrawals are not applicable for tax-saver FDs.
Yes, the interest you earn from an FD is taxable. The interest earned is added to your income and taxed according to your income slab. TDS is deducted if the interest exceeds ₹40,000 (₹50,000 in case of senior citizens) in a financial year.
For example, if a regular citizen earns ₹60,000 as interest in a year, TDS will be deducted on the ₹20,000 that exceeds the ₹40,000 limit. At a 10% TDS rate, ₹2,000 will be deducted.
Yes, an FD calculator is completely free to use. By entering your deposit amount, preferred tenure, and payout frequency, you can easily estimate the best-suited interest rate and maturity amount on Bajaj Markets.
Using an FD calculator typically takes just a few minutes. Simply enter your deposit amount, tenure, and payout frequency. The calculator will quickly showcase the returns and maturity amount. It's a fast and efficient tool for planning your investments.
An FD calculator helps you compare different fixed deposit options from various providers. You can compare their interest rates, tenures, and maturity amounts, making it easier to choose the most suitable FD.
A tax-saving fixed deposit allows investors to claim deductions under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961, (up to ₹1.5 Lakhs in deductions per financial year). However, these FDs have a 5-year lock-in period, during which funds cannot be withdrawn.
Auto-renewing a fixed deposit in a declining interest rate environment can be risky because the renewed FD may offer a lower interest rate than the original. This reduction could affect your overall earnings if rates have changed substantially since your initial investment.
