RD tips
- Compare IDFC FIRST Bank's RD rate against the top-rate table above before committing.
- Use an RD to build a habit of saving a fixed amount every month.
- If you already have a lump sum, an FD usually earns more than an RD for the same rate — see the IDFC FIRST Bank FD Calculator.
How it's calculated
A recurring deposit adds a fixed amount every month, and interest compounds quarterly — the convention Indian banks, including IDFC FIRST Bank, actually use for RDs. Each month's deposit is folded into the next quarterly compounding cycle using the standard "banker's RD formula":
M = R × [ (1 + i)n − 1 ] / ( 1 − (1 + i)−1/3 )
where R is the monthly deposit, i is the quarterly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 4 ÷ 100) and n is the tenure in quarters (months ÷ 3). Set the rate slider to IDFC FIRST Bank's currently advertised RD rate for an accurate estimate — see the methodology page.
Example
Depositing ₹1,000 every month for 12 months at 8% (quarterly compounding) matures to roughly ₹12,529 — about ₹529 in interest on ₹12,000 saved. Swap in IDFC FIRST Bank's currently advertised rate above for an exact figure.
