What is a Fixed Deposit?

A Fixed Deposit (FD) is a financial instrument provided by banks and NBFCs which provides investors with a higher rate of interest than a regular savings account, until the given maturity date. The interest rate is fixed for the entire tenure.

How FD Interest is Calculated

FD interest is calculated using the compound interest formula:

Maturity Amount = Principal × (1 + Rate/Frequency)^(Frequency × Time)

Compounding Frequency

Annually1 time/year
Half-yearly2 times/year
Quarterly4 times/year
Monthly12 times/year
