In a Non-Cumulative FD, interest is paid out periodically, as per the investor’s choice. The regular interest pay outs can help you meet your daily expenses. Though both FDs offer better returns than a savings account, cumulative FDs help you earn higher returns. -
✔️What is TDS on an FD?
A TDS refers to the Tax Deducted at Source and as per the Section 194A of the Income Tax Act of 1961, interest that is earned from investing in fixed deposits floated by NBFCs and banks is taxable in case it crosses Rs. 5,000/Rs. 10,000 depending on the type of financial institution. The interest income for a single depositor will be computed after taking all his/her fixed deposits into account. The TDS is calculated by the financial institution and is paid into the requisite Government account depending upon the frequency of interest pay outs to the investor. The TDS certificate is given to the investor on a quarterly basis. In case the investor furnishes Form 15G/15H during the application stage for a fixed deposit, he/she will not have to pay tax on interest income. This can be furnished when the investor’s total income is lower than the taxable limit. Form 15G/H is valid for one financial year. -
✔️How to choose best Fixed Deposit Plan?
You have two options before you, namely Cumulative Fixed Deposits or Non-Cumulative Fixed Deposits. In case of Cumulative Fixed Deposits, the interest you earn on the principal amount will be compounded annually. This means that you can grow your wealth steadily and get the entire interest income paid out at the time of maturity along with the principal amount. There are no periodic pay outs of interest income and this scheme can actually multiply your money in a bigger way if you are disciplined enough and do not need regular interest income pay outs. In case of the non-cumulative FD scheme, the interest you earn on your principal amount will be paid out at regular intervals. This can be on a monthly or quarterly basis or even on a semi-annually or yearly basis. Now this scheme is ideal if you need the interest income paid out at periodic intervals. It all depends on your own circumstances and the goals you have from your FD, i.e. earning regular interest income or simply growing wealth for a specific tenure without any regular income needs. Apart from choosing between these two types, you should also select the best fixed deposit plan based on other parameters which are the following: (1) Rates of interest - You should always go for the highest possible rates of interest. (2) Tenure - You should choose flexible tenure as per your convenience. (3) Terms & Conditions - You should always choose a fixed deposit plan where you have convenient interest pay outs and keep in mind extra rates for senior citizens among other aspects.
