How is Axis Bank FD Rate Calculated?

There are two methods to compute Axis Bank Fixed Deposit interest rates: One is using Simple Interest, and the other is Compound Interest. The calculation of the interest amount depends upon factors such as deposited amount, rate of interest, compounding frequency, and the interest earned, which you will avail as a payout.

Simple Interest on Axis Bank FD

Simple interest is the interest earned on the investment amount for a stated period at a pre-decided interest rate. If the fixed deposit tenure is lower than six months, the interest rate is computed using the simple interest method in the Axis Bank FD account.

SI = (P * R * T)/ 100

Where,

• P = Principal Amount
• R = Rate of Interest
• T = Tenure of the FD

You can see the example below.

Suppose you invest Rs 5,00,000 in an FD on 1st January 2022 for a period of 120 days at a 10% interest rate.

Here, P = Rs 5,00,000

R = 10% per annum

T = Tenure of 120 days

Date of Maturity = 30th April 2022

Simple Interest = (P * R * T)/ 100

SI = (Rs 5,00,000 * 10 * 120 days) / 100 * 365 days

SI = Rs 16,438

Amount on Maturity = Amount Invested + Interest Earned = Rs 5,00,000 + Rs 16,438

The maturity amount on FD is Rs 5,16,438.

Compound Interest in FD

In the compound interest method, the interest you earn is added to the principle, and then you earn interest on the compound interest. The rate of interest increases to the number of years for which the interest is compounded and then multiplied by the invested principal amount.

The Axis FD account offers a compound interest rate only if the maturity period is more than six months. It offers flexibility while choosing the monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or annual compounding frequency. The formula of FD maturity amount compounded annually is as follows:

A = P (1+r/n) ^ (n * t)

Where,

• A = Maturity Amount
• P = Principal amount
• r = Rate of Interest 
• N = number of compounding in a year
• t = number of years

Here is an example for you to understand how compound interest is calculated:

Suppose an individual invests Rs 90,000 for four years at an interest rate of 12% p.a compounded quarterly. 

Here, 

Principal amount = Rs 90,000

Interest Rate = 12% p.a half-yearly

No. of compounding annually = 4 (1 quarter = 3 months)

Investment Years is 4 years

Total compounding = 4 quarter * 4 years = 16 compounding

A = 90,000 (1+0.12/4) ^ (4*4)

A = Rs 1,44,423

Interest amount = Rs 1,44,423 – Rs 90,000 = Rs 54,423

Axis Bank FD Calculator Formula & Example 

The return generated on the total deposited amount can be easily calculated using the Urban Money calculator. This will help in having accurate returns offered by the FD in the Axis bank calculator. These calculators use the following formula to determine the final amount. 

A = P (1+r/n)^n*t

Where,

• A = Final Amount
• P = Principal Amount (deposited initially)
• r = rate of interest
• n = Frequency of compounding interest (for yearly compounding n = 1 whereas for monthly compounding n = 12)
• t = FD tenure

Here's an example that will help you understand how Urban Money FD calculator can accurately estimate your maturity returns. 

Example 1: You have deposited Rs. 60,000 at an interest rate of 7% for five years, then what will be your maturity amount?

You must enter the values in the text fields to get the exact result.

• P = 60,000
• t = 5
• n = 12
• R = 7%
• A = 60000 (1+7%/2)^2x5
• A = 85,867.5

Therefore you will get Rs. 85,867 approx.

Factors Affecting Axis Bank FD Interest Rate

There are multiple factors that affect the Axis Bank FD interest rate. Some of these factors are mentioned below:

• Deposit Amount and Tenure: The interest rate of your FD account is highly dependent on its tenure and the deposited amount. That is because a larger amount with a longer tenure can give you higher returns at maturity.
• Change in Repo Rates: Deposit rates are linked to the inflation rate. In this case, banks should give positive returns to depositors. Owing to this, investors should monitor the rate of inflation, which affects the lending rates. 
• Prevalent Liquidity Situation: If there is adequate liquidity, banks do not have to focus on retail fixed deposits during tight liquidity. 
• Demand and supply conditions: If there is less demand for credit, banks often decrease their fixed deposit rates. On the other hand, if there is high demand for credit, banks increase their fixed deposit rates. 
• Falling Call Rates: The falling call rates signify the amount of liquidity available in the market which banks borrow from the market for their short-term needs. But, if the call market is lending at a lower rate, it will affect interest rates on retail deposits. 
• Cut Down Rates: Banks cut down the interest rates when their fund's costs are low. But if the fixed deposit rate is high, there is a revision in the base rate, which is less likely unless the high-cost deposit rates are cut-down.
