You can utilise an FD calculator to compute the ₹3 Crore fixed deposit interest per month. All you need to do is enter the following details:

• The principal amount

• The interest rate

• The investment tenure

Maturity Amount Calculation Example

Assume you invested in a ₹3 Crore fixed deposit with an interest rate of 7.50% p.a. for a period of 5 years (60 months). Here’s how you can manually calculate the monthly interest earned:

• Monthly Interest Earned = Principal × Interest Rate / 12

• Monthly Interest Earned = ₹3,00,00,000 × 7.50% / 12

• Monthly Interest Earned = ₹22,50,000 / 12

• Monthly Interest Earned = ₹1,87,500

 

The ₹3 Crore FD interest per month at 7.50% p.a. would be ₹1,87,500

 

Total Interest Earned Upon Maturity

• Total Interest Earned = Monthly Interest × Number of Months

• Total Interest Earned = ₹1,87,500 × 60

• Total Interest Earned = ₹1,12,50,000

 

The total interest accumulated over the 5-year tenure would amount to ₹1,12,50,000, and the monthly interest on a ₹3 Crore FD would be ₹1,87,500.

Banks and NBFCs allow premature withdrawal from a ₹3 Crore fixed deposit, but this often comes with certain penalties. Typically, the monthly interest on a ₹3 Crore FD offered on your investment will be reduced if you withdraw before the maturity period. Additionally, many banks and NBFCs may also impose a small penalty fee on the total amount withdrawn, impacting your overall returns.

FD Premature Withdrawal Example

Let’s assume you invest ₹3 Crores in a fixed deposit at an interest rate of 7.50% p.a. for 5 years but decide to withdraw it prematurely after 1 year. The interest rate for the 1-year period would drop to 6.50% p.a. After applying a 1% penalty, the final interest rate reduces to 5.50% p.a., which significantly lowers your returns.

Checking the tax obligations as per your potential earnings is a smart financial habit while investing. Here are a few things you need to know before investing in a ₹3 Crore fixed deposit:

• If your income exceeds ₹40,000 in a year, bank or NBFCs deduct TDS (Tax Deducted at Source)

• TDS is also deducted for senior citizens if the interest earnings go beyond ₹50,000 in a year

• TDS is deducted at 10% if you have provided your PAN details

• If PAN details have not been submitted, TDS is deducted at 20%

• Forms 15H or 15G allow you to avoid TDS if your income falls under the taxable bracket

• You can claim tax deductions of up to ₹1.5 Lakhs in a financial year by investing in tax-saver FDs u/s 80C of the Income Tax Act, 1961
