About this tool

A Recurring Deposit (RD) is a bank savings product where you deposit a fixed amount every month for a set term and earn interest, typically compounded quarterly, with the full maturity amount paid at the end. This calculator computes that maturity value and the interest earned, and can include the higher interest rate banks offer senior citizens.

Because each monthly deposit earns interest for a different length of time, the maturity maths is not as simple as a single lump sum — the tool handles the quarterly compounding on each instalment correctly. It is a good way to see what a disciplined monthly saving habit will accumulate to.

It runs in your browser, so your figures stay private. Rates vary by bank and change over time, so use it to compare options and plan; your bank’s current rate is the final word.

Frequently asked questions

How does an RD differ from an FD?
A recurring deposit takes a fixed amount every month over the term, whereas a fixed deposit is a single lump sum. Both earn interest and pay out at maturity.
How is RD interest calculated?
Interest is typically compounded quarterly, and because each monthly instalment is invested for a different length of time, the calculator accounts for that when computing maturity.
Do senior citizens earn more?
Banks usually offer senior citizens a higher rate on RDs. The calculator lets you include that bonus rate.
Are my figures private?
Yes. The calculation runs in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded.
