Recurring Deposit (RD) Calculator
Calculate RD maturity amount, total deposits and interest earned β with a month-wise growth schedule.
Explanation
A Recurring Deposit (RD) is a savings option where you deposit a fixed amount every month for a fixed tenure. The bank pays interest on each deposit from the date it is deposited until maturity. Your final maturity amount equals total deposits + interest earned.
Tip: Longer tenure and higher interest rate increase maturity. If your bank compounds quarterly, keep compounding as Quarterly for best accuracy.
Formula (concept)
Balance grows with each monthly deposit. At compounding points, interest is added to balance: Interest = Balance Γ (annual_rate/100) Γ (days/365) (simplified) This calculator simulates month-by-month with chosen compounding frequency.
