Frequently asked
What is the maturity amount of a ₹5 lakh FD for 2 years at 6.5%?
₹5,68,819, with ₹68,819 earned as interest (quarterly compounding). Annual interest stays under the ₹40,000 TDS threshold for non-senior depositors.
Is FD interest taxable?
Yes. FD interest is added to your income and taxed at your slab. Banks deduct TDS at 10% once interest crosses ₹40,000 a year (₹50,000 for senior citizens); submit Form 15G/15H if your total income is below the taxable limit.
Which is better, FD or debt mutual fund?
FDs give a guaranteed, known return and DICGC insurance up to ₹5 lakh per bank. Debt funds can beat FDs slightly but carry interest-rate and credit risk. For money you need within 1–2 years, an FD is usually the simpler choice.
Do senior citizens get a higher FD rate?
Most banks add 0.25–0.75% for depositors aged 60+. Enter your bank's senior rate in the calculator for the exact maturity amount.
