FD Calculator

Fixed Deposit Calculator can be used to check the interest and maturity amount that the depositor shall get on maturity. Since FD interest rates keep on changing, it is highly advisable to check the maturity amount as per the prevailing interest rates before investing in a fixed deposit.

 

The tool requires minimal information including the deposit amount and tenure for which this amount is to be deposited. Along with these two inputs, customers need to provide the rate of interest too on which the maturity amount will be calculated.
