FD Calculator (Fixed Deposit)
Calculate maturity amount, total interest earned, and FD growth based on compounding frequency.
Explanation
A Fixed Deposit (FD) is a low-risk investment where you deposit a lump sum for a fixed tenure at a fixed interest rate. Your final amount depends on the rate, tenure, and how often interest is compounded.
Tip: For cumulative FDs, compounding frequency matters. For non-cumulative FDs, you may receive interest monthly/quarterly while principal remains unchanged.
Formula
A = P × (1 + r/n)^(n×t) Simple interest: A = P × (1 + r×t)
