How This Calculation Formula is Formulated

Indian commercial banks (including SBI, HDFC, and ICICI) compound fixed deposit interest on a quarterly basis (n = 4 intervals per calendar year). Principal accumulates interest every 3 months, which is added to the principal for subsequent interest calculations until maturity.

Standard Algebraic Representation
A = P \cdot \left(1 + \frac{r}{4}\right)^{4t}

In-Depth Editorial Analysis

TDS Rules on Fixed Deposit Interest

Under Section 194A of the Indian Income-tax Act, banks deduct Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) at 10% if total interest earned across all branches exceeds ₹40,000 in a financial year (₹50,000 for senior citizens). If PAN is not provided, TDS is deducted at 20%.

Investors whose total income is below the taxable threshold can submit Form 15G (or Form 15H for senior citizens) at the beginning of the financial year to request zero TDS deduction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Fixed Deposit (FD) Maturity Calculator

Why does bank FD yield exceed simple interest?

Because interest is credited and reinvested every quarter, subsequent quarters earn interest on prior interest, producing an effective annual yield higher than the nominal rate.

What extra interest do senior citizens get on FDs?

Most Indian public and private banks offer an additional 0.50% interest rate premium to senior citizens (aged 60 and above).

Can I withdraw my FD before maturity?

Yes, but banks typically charge a premature withdrawal penalty of 0.5% to 1.0% on the applicable interest rate for the period the deposit was held.

Are 5-year tax-saving FDs eligible for premature withdrawal?

No. 5-year tax-saving fixed deposits under Section 80C have a mandatory 5-year lock-in period with no premature liquidation or loan facility permitted.
