How is interest and maturity amount on an RD calculated?
Banks determine recurring deposit interest rates based on guidelines provided by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). Generally, RD interest rates offered by most banks range between 5% and 7.50%. Interest on recurring deposits is compounded quarterly, and until then, the RD earns simple interest. For instance, if an investor starts an RD in August, it will earn simple interest until September. Compounding of interest occurs at the end of each quarter, meaning that the interest earned itself starts earning interest. The quarters for RD investments are April to June, July to September, October to December, and January to March.
