FD Calculator Online - FAQs

What is a Fixed Deposit Calculator?

A Fixed Deposit Calculator is a free online tool that allows you to calculate the maturity amount and the interest accrued based on the deposit amount, tenure, and interest rate offered. The calculator works based on the mathematical formula that banks use to determine the interest amounts in a Fixed Deposit account and provides quick and precise results.

You can use IDFC FIRST Bank's user-friendly FD Calculator online to find a Fixed Deposit plan that suits your needs.

How do we use the Fixed Deposit Calculator?

IDFC FIRST Bank’s FD Calculator helps you calculate the interest and the amount accrued at maturity. The tool has input fields that must be filled in for the result to appear. Follow these steps to use the FD Calculator:

1. Choose the type of customer you are (regular customer or senior citizen). For a senior citizen, the effective interest rate is higher by 0.50 percent.

2. Next, you need to choose the type of deposit. There are four options to choose from - short-term, reinvestment, quarterly payout, or monthly payout. You can opt for the one you prefer.

3. Fill in the deposit amount and tenure years or days, or use the slider to select the same.

4. The FD amount with cumulative FD interest will be calculated instantly. 

How to calculate the Fixed Deposit maturity amount?

You don’t have to use any mathematical formula for this; instead, you can visit the IDFC FIRST Bank website and use the Fixed Deposit Calculator by providing the inputs such as the type of FD, deposit amount, and tenure, whether it is for a short-term or long-term (over 180 days). Once the details have been filled out properly, the maturity amount will be displayed. The annual interest rate is updated automatically.

How is the interest on a bank FD calculated?

There are two methods of calculating interest on a Fixed Deposit:

1. Simple interest method

Under this method, you multiply the principal amount, interest rate, and tenure to get the result. The formula is:

Simple Interest (SI) = P (Principal amount) x R (Rate of interest) x T (Tenure) divided by 100 or P x R x T/100

For instance, if you invest ₹ 10,000 @ 6% p.a. for 5 years, you get:

10,000 x 6 x 5/100 = ₹ 3000

You will earn ₹ 3000 in 5 years.

2. Compound interest method

The compounding method enables you to earn interest on interest, and most banks offer compound interest. For example, if you invest ₹ 10,000 @ 6% p.a. for 5 years compounded quarterly, you will get ₹ 13,469* on maturity.

To arrive at the calculation, you can use this formula:

Compound Interest (CI) = P {(1 + i/100n) ^nt – 1}, where P = Principal, I = rate of interest, t = time, n = no. of times interest is compounded annually.

Compound Interest (CI) = 10000 {(1 + 6/100*5)^5*4 – 1} = ₹ 3,469*

On maturity, you will get ₹ 13,469*.

*These are indicative numbers and may differ basis the actual number of days considered for calculation.

What is the minimum amount required to open an FD account with a bank?

The minimum amount required to open an FD with IDFC FIRST Bank is ₹ 10,000.

How long can the minimum tenure be for a Bank Fixed Deposit?

The minimum tenure for a Fixed Deposit is 7 days.

Which forms should I submit to avoid Tax Deduction at Source?

Senior citizens can submit Form 15H, while others can submit Form 15G to avoid the deduction of TDS on income earned on a Fixed Deposit.

Is there a penalty if the Bank FD is prematurely withdrawn?

The FD can be withdrawn prematurely, but a penalty may be levied as per the Bank’s policy. If you want to withdraw partially, the penalty will be subject to ‘Premature Closure Penalty’ as decided by IDFC FIRST Bank on the date of opening a deposit.

Which factors affect Fixed Deposit interest rates?

Fixed Deposits offer guaranteed returns and generally, the interest rates promised at the time of account opening remain the same throughout the tenure. The rates are decided by the bank based on multiple factors, including:

  1. Repo rates
  2. Inflation
  3. Investment tenure
  4. Investment profile (senior or non-senior citizen)
  5. Type of FD (cumulative or non-cumulative)

 

What is the interest rate on FDs for senior citizens?

Fixed Deposit accounts offer higher interest rates for senior citizens. The rates may vary depending on the type of FD and the bank. IDFC FIRST Bank offers an additional 0.5% interest rate on its FD accounts for senior citizens.

Is the FD interest rate paid monthly?

Yes, customers can choose to receive interest on a monthly basis. Fixed Deposit interest payouts can be classified into two types: cumulative and non-cumulative. A cumulative FD’s interest is calculated and reinvested on a quarterly basis. A non-cumulative Fixed Deposit account’s interest is calculated and paid monthly or quarterly.

What is a Fixed Deposit?

A Fixed Deposit (FD) is a financial instrument provided by banks where you can deposit a lump sum amount for a fixed tenure at a predetermined interest rate. It offers a secure way to grow your savings with guaranteed returns. At the end of the tenure, you receive the principal amount along with the accumulated interest.

What are the key benefits of a Fixed Deposit?

  1. Guaranteed returns: FDs offer assured returns at a fixed interest rate, unaffected by market fluctuations.
  2. Capital protection: Your principal amount remains safe and secured.
  3. Flexible tenures: Choose from a variety of tenures ranging from a few days to several years.
  4. Tax benefits: Certain FDs are eligible for tax deductions under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act.
  5. Higher interest rates: Senior citizens can avail higher interest rates on their deposits.
  6. Loan facility: You can avail loans against your FD without breaking the deposit.

What are the limitations of a Fixed Deposit?

  1. Liquidity constraints: Premature withdrawals may result in penalties and reduced interest rates.
  2. Inflation impact: Fixed returns might not always keep up with inflation, potentially reducing real returns over time.
  3. Lower returns compared to other investments: FDs typically offer lower returns compared to equity or mutual fund investments.
  4. Taxable interest: Interest earned on FDs is taxable, which can impact overall returns.

What are the types of Fixed Deposits offered by IDFC FIRST Bank?

  1. Standard Fixed Deposit: This is a regular FD where you deposit a lump sum for a fixed tenure at a predetermined interest rate. It offers flexible tenures and attractive interest rates.
