A recurring deposit (RD) is an investment avenue using which you can save money on a regular basis while earning interest on it. The major highlight of an RD is that you can save by making small contributions at regular intervals and earning interest on your savings.
How to calculate the Recurring Deposit maturity amount The maturity amount for Recurring Deposits is the sum of the principle and interest generated over the investment period. Interest is compounded on a quarterly basis. According to HDFC Bank website, “Recurring Deposit is calculated using the compound interest formula. The savings have to be deposited into the account every month. The interest on your savings is compounded quarterly”.
