If you plan to invest a substantial amount, like ₹10 Lakhs, in a fixed deposit (FD), you need to compare the interest rates across issuers and choose a suitable tenor. After all, your interest earnings depend on the tenor you choose and the FD rate. For instance, the interest per month on a fixed deposit of ₹10 Lakhs at 8% for a tenor of 5 years will be ₹6,666.

 

Likewise, choosing a tenor of 3 years for the same FD amount at 8% will generate a monthly interest payout of ₹4,000. As you can see, the interest income reduces when you choose a shorter timeline.
