FD Calculator (Fixed Deposit Maturity) by TheCalcTools

How the FD Calculator (Fixed Deposit Maturity) works

A fixed deposit compounds interest m times a year: maturity = P × (1 + r ÷ m)^(m × years). Indian banks usually compound FDs quarterly; US CDs often compound daily or monthly.

The effective annual yield (APY) shows the yearly return including compounding, so you can compare deposits with different compounding.

The formula

A = P × (1 + r ÷ m)^(m t)

Worked example

Using the default values shown in the calculator:

Deposit amount$100000
Interest rate (yearly)7 %
Tenure (years)3
CompoundingQuarterly (common for Indian bank FDs)
Tax on interest0 %
  1. 100,000 at 7% for 3 years, compounded quarterly, matures at $123,143.93.
  2. Interest earned is $23,143.93, an effective yield of 7.19.

Result:

Maturity value$123,143.93
Interest earned$23,143.93
Effective annual yield7.19%
Interest after tax$23,143.93

Is FD interest taxable?

Usually yes, as income in the year it accrues. In India banks deduct TDS above a threshold; the tax field lets you see the after-tax interest.
