RD Return Calculator FAQ

Frequently asked questions about calculation formulas, privacy, and usage.

Why is RD's effective return different from FD at the same rate?

Since RD deposits are made monthly rather than as a lump sum, each installment earns interest for a shorter period than the full tenure, resulting in a lower effective annualized return than an FD at the same stated rate.

Can I withdraw an RD before maturity?

Most banks allow premature withdrawal, but usually with a penalty (reduced interest rate) — check your bank's specific terms.

Is RD interest taxable?

Yes, similar to FD, RD interest is taxable as income at your applicable slab rate in India.

Is my deposit data saved anywhere?

No. Calculations execute strictly client-side with zero data uploads.
