RD Calculator FAQ
RD Calculator Formula & Example
📌 Formula for Recurring Deposit (RD) Maturity
The RD maturity amount is calculated using quarterly compounding (standard in India) as follows:
M = Σ [ P × (1 + r / 4)^(4 × t) ]
Where:
- P = Monthly deposit
- r = Annual interest rate (in decimal, e.g., 7% / 100 = 0.07)
- t = Time remaining for each deposit in years (t = (n - i + 1)/12)
- n = Total number of months
- i = Index of monthly deposit (1, 2, …, n)
- M = RD maturity amount
📌 Interest Earned
Interest = M - (P × n)
📌 Example
Suppose:
- Monthly Deposit Amount: ₹5,000
- Interest Rate: 7% p.a.
- Time Period: 24 months (2 years)
Calculation using the formula:
Maturity Amount = Σ [ 5000 × (1 + 0.07 / 4)^(4 × t) ] for each month t
After calculating for all 24 monthly deposits:
- Total Deposit = 5000 × 24 = ₹1,20,000
- Interest Earned ≈ ₹9,168
- Maturity Amount ≈ ₹1,29,168
✅ So, if you deposit ₹5,000 every month for 2 years at 7% annual interest (compounded quarterly), your RD will grow to ₹1,29,168, with an interest of ₹9,168.
