Yes Bank RD Calculator

Recurring Deposits and Fixed Deposits work on a very similar terminology. Even though both are beneficial in their way, Recurring Deposits are considered to be better for 2 primary reasons:

• They do not have a fixed withdrawal period just like the Fixed Deposits.

• Investments can be made as low as Rs. 10 monthly.

What is a Recurring Deposit?

Recurring means occurring on a regular basis. Recurring Deposits are the kind of deposits in which regular monthly installments are made for a fixed tenure. It is a risk-free investment option available for every individual in India. Some financial institutions offer the RD account facility to their NRI (Non-Resident Indians) customers as well.

Recurring Deposits interest rate varies from one institution to another. The current interest rate of the Yes Bank RD account ranges from 5.00% to 7.00%. Also, the minimum tenure for RD Deposit is 6 months whereas the maximum can be up to 10 years. RD Calculators are used in calculating the maturity amount by banks because the manual calculation of RD interest rates is a little difficult.

Recurring Deposit Interest Formula

Sometimes, investors do not trust the online calculator and wish to compute the maturity value of the Recurring Deposits they make to the bank. Even though manual calculations are tricky and have a scope of error, still the following formula can be used to compute the maturity value of the deposits made.

M =R X [(1 + i) X (n – 1)] / 1 - (1 + i) (-1 / 3)

Here,

R = Monthly deposited amount

n = The tenure

i = Rate of Interest divided by 4 

M = Maturity value

For Illustration:

Rs. 1,000 have been deposited monthly by Mr. Singh in his Yes Bank Recurring Deposit account for a period of 10 years. Assuming the Rate of Interest to be 10%, the maturity amount receivable at the end of the tenure will be: 

M =R X [(1 + i) X n – 1] / 1 - (1 + i) (-1 / 3)

Maturity amount = 1,000 X [(1 + 10) X 40 – 1] / 1 – (1 + 10) (-1 / 3)

Maturity amount = Rs. 2,06,552
