FD interest uses compound interest: A = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t), where P = principal, r = annual rate, n = compounding frequency (4 for quarterly), t = tenure in years.

In a simple interest FD, interest is calculated only on the principal. A ₹1 lakh FD at 7% for 3 years = ₹21,000 interest. In compound interest FD, interest is added to the principal each period and earns further interest. The same ₹1 lakh at 7% compounded quarterly for 3 years earns ₹23,144 in interest. Most Indian bank FDs compound quarterly, making them more beneficial for longer tenures. Use the free FD Calculator on AbacusHand to calculate your exact result instantly.

A ₹1 lakh FD at 7.5% for 1 year earns ₹7,763. An RD of ₹10,000/month for 12 months at the same rate earns approximately ₹4,016 — since contributions are spread over time. FD suits those with a lump sum; RD suits regular savers. Use the free FD Calculator on AbacusHand to calculate your exact result instantly.
