Is FD interest taxable in India?

Yes. FD interest is added to your income and taxed at your slab rate. TDS (Tax Deducted at Source): banks deduct 10% TDS if annual interest exceeds ₹40,000 (₹50,000 for senior citizens). Submit Form 15G (under 60) or 15H (senior citizen) to avoid TDS if your total income is below the taxable limit.

What is the difference between FD and RD?

FD (Fixed Deposit): Lump sum investment, fixed tenure, fixed interest rate. Best for idle money you won't need for a period. RD (Recurring Deposit): Monthly installments (like SIP for bank savings), same tenure and rate concept. For monthly earners, RD helps build discipline. FD gives slightly higher rates. RD formula: M = R × [(1+r)^n − 1] / (1 − (1+r)^(−1/3)), where R = monthly installment.
