Monthly Interest Rates for ₹ 1 Crore Fixed Deposit

Posted on Friday, October 25th, 2024 | By IndusInd Bank

Fixed deposits (FDs) have long been a favoured investment choice for individuals seeking safety and guaranteed returns. What has made FDs even more popular is that you can receive interest credits to your account every month if you want. 

With a large amount like ₹ 1 crore, the potential for earning monthly interest can be huge. But how much monthly interest on a ₹ 1 crore FD can you earn? Let’s calculate that with the details and explore how IndusInd Bank can help you maximise your returns.

Monthly Interest Payout on ₹1 Crore FD 

Investing ₹1 crore in a fixed deposit (FD) can provide a stable monthly income, especially if you opt for a monthly interest payout. The monthly interest depends on the interest rate offered by the bank and the tenure of the deposit.  

For instance, if the interest rate is 7.75% per annum, the monthly interest would be approximately ₹64,583. 

Formula: 

Monthly Interest = ₹1,00,00,000 × (7.75/100) ÷ 12 = ₹64,583 

This option is ideal for individuals seeking regular income, such as retirees or those looking to supplement monthly expenses. 

Yearly Interest Payout on ₹1 Crore FD 

If you prefer receiving interest annually, the payout is straightforward. At an interest rate of 7.75% per annum, the yearly interest on ₹1 crore would be: 

Yearly Interest = ₹1,00,00,000 × (7.75/100) = ₹7,75,000 

Annual payouts are suitable for those who want to reinvest the interest or use it for large yearly expenses.

Please note that this is a simplified calculation. For detailed guidance, please contact a bank representative.   

Tax Implication on ₹1 Crore Fixed Deposit 

Interest earned on fixed deposits is taxable under the Income Tax Act. For a ₹1 crore FD, the annual interest of ₹7.75 lakh would be added to your total income and taxed as per your applicable slab rate.  

Key Points: 

• TDS (Tax Deducted at Source): Banks deduct TDS at 10% if the interest exceeds ₹40,000 (₹50,000 for senior citizens) in a financial year. 

• Form 15G/15H: These forms can be submitted to avoid TDS if your total income is below the taxable limit. 

• Advance Tax: If your total tax liability exceeds ₹10,000 in a financial year, you may need to pay advance tax. 

Consult a tax advisor to plan your FD investments efficiently and minimize tax liability. 

Penalty on a Premature Withdrawal of a ₹1 Crore Fixed Deposit 

Premature withdrawal of a fixed deposit can lead to reduced interest earnings due to penalties. Most banks charge a penalty of 0.5% to 1% on the applicable interest rate. 

Example: 

FD Amount: ₹1 crore 

Original Rate: 7.75% 

Withdrawn after 6 months 

Applicable Rate for 6 months: 5.5% 

Penalty: 1% 

Effective Rate: 4.5% 

Interest Earned: ₹1,00,00,000 × (4.5/100) × (6/12) = ₹2,25,000 

Always check the bank’s premature withdrawal policy before investing, especially for large deposits.
