Monthly Interest for ₹20 Lakh FD

In accordance with the laws in force in India, the interest earned on FD accounts is entirely taxable. This is because the income you earn from your ₹20 Lakh FD is considered an alternate income. 

The interest amount from your FDs is clubbed with your total income and is taxed accordingly. The tax rates depend on which slab applies to your total taxable income, as specified in the Income Tax Act.

For a ₹20 Lakhs fixed deposit, you will be required to submit your proof of identity such as PAN card, Aadhaar card, driving licence, voter’s ID, etc. 

You will also need to submit proof of address, including a passport, registered rent agreement, bank passbook with photo, electricity bill, etc. 

If you are an entity such as a company or a HUF, you will be required to submit relevant documents. These include a HUF deed, certificate of registration, articles/memorandum of association, partnership deed, etc.

While different FD issuers have varied requirements for potential investors to apply for an FD account. However, most banks and NBFCs require applicants to be Indian residents at least 18 years old. 

Moreover, you will be needed to submit all the required documents when applying for a fixed deposit.

You can also calculate your monthly interest for a ₹20 Lakhs fixed deposit manually. You can use the formula: M= P + P {(1 + i/100) t – 1}, where P equals the principal amount, i equals the rate of interest, and t equals the tenor.
