  • Step 1: Select the customer category (senior or non-senior citizen). 

  • Step 2: Enter the investment amount. 

  • Step 3: Enter the investment tenor, which is 5 years. 

  • Step 4: Fill in the 5 year FD interest rates. In some cases, the calculator auto-fills the rate of interest. 

  • Step 5: Submit these details. 

Once you do this, the FD calculator will display the total interest you will earn along with the total maturity amount at the end of the 5-year period.

 

TheFD calculator uses the following mathematical formula to compute the FD interest: 

 

FD interest = P (1 + r/n)nt - P

 

In this formula, P is the principal amount invested, r is the interest rate, n is the number of times the interest is compounded during one year and t is the investment tenor in years.
