How to use this calculator

Use the RD calculator to estimate how a fixed monthly deposit grows over time. It is designed for recurring deposits where you contribute the same amount regularly and want to understand maturity value, invested amount, and interest earned.

1. Enter the monthly deposit

Start with the fixed amount you plan to deposit every month into the recurring deposit.

2. Add rate and tenure

The annual interest rate and total duration define how much each installment can compound.

3. Review maturity and total interest

Check both the maturity amount and how much of it comes from interest rather than your own contributions.

4. Compare tenures or deposit amounts

Try different monthly amounts or durations to see what level of disciplined saving reaches your target.

Frequently asked questions

Can I change my monthly RD installment amount?

Usually no. A standard RD is built around a fixed monthly contribution for the full tenure.

Is RD interest taxable?

Yes. RD interest is generally taxable under income from other sources, and TDS may apply when thresholds are crossed.

What happens if I miss an installment?

Banks often charge a penalty for missed or delayed payments, and repeated defaults can affect the deposit account.

Why does quarterly compounding matter in an RD?

Because each installment starts compounding at a different time, the actual maturity value depends on the banking compounding convention, which is commonly quarterly.
