How it's calculated

A cumulative FD compounds interest each period and pays it at maturity. The maturity value is:

M = P × (1 + i/n)n·t

where P is the principal, i is the annual interest rate (as a decimal), n is the number of compounding periods per year (4 for quarterly — the most common convention for Indian bank FDs, including Punjab National Bank), and t is the tenure in years. Set the rate slider to Punjab National Bank's currently advertised FD rate for an accurate estimate — we don't hardcode a single bank's rate into the calculator itself.

Example

A ₹1,00,000 deposit at 7% for 5 years, compounded quarterly, grows to roughly ₹1,41,478 — an interest earning of about ₹41,478. Swap in Punjab National Bank's currently advertised rate above for an exact figure.
