Banking & FD Calculators

FD, RD, post office MIS, SCSS, KVP, NSC and SGB calculators.

Fixed deposits and government small-savings schemes hold the bulk of Indian household financial wealth. This category computes maturity values for every regulated option — bank FDs and RDs (DICGC-insured up to ₹5L), Post Office MIS for monthly income, SCSS for senior citizens at 8.2%, KVP and NSC for medium-term parking, and SGB for gold exposure with a 2.5% interest sweetener. Every tool uses the correct compounding frequency for each scheme — quarterly for FD/SCSS, annual for NSC/PPF, monthly for MIS — so the maturity number you see matches what the bank will actually credit.
