Frequently asked questions
Is FD interest taxable in India?
Yes. FD interest is fully taxable as "Income from Other Sources" at your applicable slab rate. If annual interest exceeds ₹40,000 (₹50,000 for senior citizens), banks deduct TDS at 10%. You must declare all FD interest in your ITR regardless of TDS.
What is the difference between cumulative and non-cumulative FD?
Cumulative FDs reinvest the interest — you receive principal + all interest at maturity. Non-cumulative FDs pay interest at intervals (monthly, quarterly, etc.), giving regular income. This calculator models the cumulative type.
What happens if I break an FD early?
Most banks charge a premature withdrawal penalty of 0.5%–1% on the applicable rate. The interest you receive will be recalculated at the rate for the period actually held, minus the penalty.
Are senior citizens eligible for higher FD rates?
Yes. Almost all major Indian banks offer an additional 0.25%–0.75% interest rate to senior citizens (age 60+) on FDs. Enable the senior citizen toggle above to see your adjusted rate.
