Banks and Non-Banking Financial Institutions (NBFCs) use two methods to calculate Fixed Deposit (FD) interest rate
A Fixed Deposit (FD) is a fixed investment scheme provided by many banking and non-banking financial institutions. FDs come with high interest rate but are subject to specific terms and conditions. They also have a lock-in period, which can range from 7 days to 10 years.
How do banks calculate interest in fixed deposits?
The FD interest rate is established at the time of opening the account. Different banks have different FD interest rate, but you can use an online FD calculator to the amount you will receive upon maturity based on an approximate interest rate. While you can break an FD before maturity, the interest you receive decreases. Also, you might have to pay a suspension charge for breaking your FD.
How to calculate fixed deposit interest?
Simple interest and compound interest are the two common methods for calculating the interest rate on a fixed deposit.
Simple Interest
The rate of interest is fixed for a set length of time. It is determined by multiplying the annual interest rate, the principal value, and the years left on the loan.
Simple Interest = Principal x Rate of interest x Time / 100
Compound Interest
This is the interest earned on both the principal and interest. It is determined by multiplying the following formula:
A = P (1+r/n) ^ (n * t)
Where A represents compound interest, P stands for the principal amount, r is the decimal rate of interest, n is the number of compounding that occur in a year, and t stands for the number of years.
How can a FD calculator help you calculate FD interest rates?
Calculating the maturity amount and interest rate of your FD is a complicated process. But an FD calculator can do the same for you with the click of a button. It allows you to save a significant amount of time when performing these complex calculations.
You can use a fixed deposit calculator to evaluate the maturity amounts and interest rates of various banking institutions' FDs. With the figures in front of you, it is easy to make a decision.
How to calculate interest using a fixed deposit calculator?
To utilise an FD deposit calculator efficiently, follow the procedures outlined below:
- Ensure you have the required details.
- Feed the data in the right slot.
- The maturity amount will be visible on the screen.
What are the benefits of using a fixed deposit calculator?
