A fixed or term deposit is a one-time lump sum option offering a guaranteed return on your investment. It is offered by the bank or other financial institutions and has a fixed tenure, ranging from a few months to several years. Known for their low risk, FDs are considered safe investments as they provide guaranteed returns.
You can choose your investment amount and tenure on your own. Apart from this, you can also choose interest payment options, receiving payouts periodically or at maturity. Fixed deposit interest rates vary based on the tenure or period you are willing to invest.
No matter how interest rates move or the economy performs, you will get the returns fixed at the time of investing.
You earn interest on the interest amount too. This helps you accumulate a big amount with ease.
Senior citizens can earn more from their life's savings and move one step closer to a no-compromise retired life.
FDs offer the flexibility to select different maturity terms, allowing you to align your investment with your financial goals.
Auto-renewal options let you continue your FD without additional formalities at maturity, ensuring a seamless continuation of your investment.
Investing a part of your money in products whose returns are not dependent on markets helps reduce overall risk
You can plan your future spending more confidently as you know how much money will come in and when.
Assured returns and the safety of the invested amount make sure you can meet these goals with ease.

You can calculate interest on your fixed deposit using the compound interest formula:
Maturity Amount (A) = P (1+r/n) ^ (n*t)
Interest = A-P
Where,
P = Principal amount
r = Rate of interest (in decimals)
n = number of compounding in a year
t = number of years
However, its calculation can be tedious. You can use the Amoolya by R9 Wealth FD Interest Calculator to simplify it.
