Using an FD calculator, you can easily compute the monthly interest payouts for your deposit within a few seconds. Add the following details:
Principal amount
Interest rate
Investment tenure
Assume you invested ₹10 Crores in an FD with an interest rate of 8.50% p.a. for a period of 5 years (60 months).
Monthly Interest Earned = Principal × Interest Rate / 12
Monthly Interest Earned = ₹10,00,00,000 × 8.50% / 12
Monthly Interest Earned = ₹85,00,000 / 12
So, the monthly interest earned on an FD of ₹10 Crores at 8.50% p.a. would be ₹7,08,333.33.
Interest Earned Upon Maturity
Interest Earned On Maturity = Principal × Interest Rate × Time (in years) / 100
Interest Earned on Maturity = ₹10,00,00,000 × 8.50 × 5 / 100
Interest Earned on Maturity = ₹4,25,00,000
The total interest accumulated over the 5-year tenure would amount to ₹4.25 Crores.
Premature withdrawal from a fixed deposit means taking out funds before the maturity date. This often leads to reduced interest rates and may include a penalty, typically around 0.5% to 1%. As a result, your overall returns may be lower, so it's important to review the terms before withdrawing early.
You invest ₹10 Crores in an FD with a 5-year tenure at an interest rate of 8.50% p.a. However, you decide to withdraw prematurely after 2 years and the interest rate for that period will be reduced to 7.50% p.a. After applying a 1% penalty for early withdrawal, the final interest rate drops to 6.50% p.a., leading to lower-than-expected returns.

Remember that the interest you earn on an FD is taxable in case it goes beyond the specific limit. Here are the current taxation rules:
In case your income exceeds ₹40,000 in a year, banks and NBFCs deduct Tax Deducted at Source (TDS)
TDS is levied for senior citizens in case the payouts exceed ₹50,000 in a year
TDS is deducted at 10% if you provide your PAN card details
TDS is deducted at 20% If you have not submitted your PAN card details
Forms 15H or 15G allow you to avoid TDS in case your income falls below the taxable bracket
You can get tax deductions of up to ₹1.5 Lakhs in a year by investing in tax-saving FDs u/s 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961
