What is an RD calculator?

An RD (Recurring Deposit) calculator estimates the maturity value of monthly deposits, using the quarterly-compounding formula that Indian banks apply to RD accounts.

Compounding frequency varies by bank

RD interest is generally compounded quarterly, matching most banks’ convention — but this does vary, so check your RD’s terms and adjust the compounding frequency here if your bank compounds differently.
