What is the difference between a Fixed Deposit (FD) and a Recurring Deposit (RD)?

A Fixed Deposit (FD) requires a single one-time lumpsum investment deposited for a fixed tenure. A Recurring Deposit (RD) involves regular monthly contributions made over a chosen tenure. Both earn guaranteed bank interest rates with quarterly compounding in Indian banks.

How does Quarterly Compounding work for Bank FDs and RDs in India?

In India, banks (like SBI, HDFC, ICICI) compound FD & RD interest quarterly (4 times a year). The formula is A = P × (1 + r/400)^(4t), where P is principal, r is annual interest percentage, and t is time in years.

What is the Senior Citizen Bonus (+0.50% p.a.) in FDs?

Most Indian banks offer an additional 0.50% per annum (50 bps) interest rate for depositors aged 60 years and above. Our calculator has a 1-click Senior Citizen toggle to automatically add this bonus to your selected bank rate.

How does Section 194A TDS Tax on FD & RD Interest work?

Under Section 194A of the Income Tax Act, banks deduct 10% TDS if your total FD/RD interest across a bank exceeds ₹40,000 in a financial year (₹50,000 for Senior Citizens). If Form 15G or 15H is submitted and your income is below taxable limit, zero TDS is deducted.

How does the FD Monthly Payout mode work for retirees?

In Monthly Payout FD mode (Non-cumulative), interest earned is credited to your bank account every month rather than being reinvested. This provides regular passive monthly income for senior citizens and retirees.
