What is a Cumulative Fixed Deposit?

According to the Shriram Finance website, “A cumulative fixed deposit accumulates the interest amount until maturity and the interest is compounded every quarter or every year. The interest that is earned every year is added to the principal amount and is paid along with the principal amount at the end of the tenure.”

What is a Non-Cumulative Fixed Deposit?

A non-cumulative fixed deposit pays the accumulated interest regularly to the investor. The investor can choose to receive interest monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or yearly. The interest rates vary for each payout option.
