A fixed deposit (FD) is a popular and secure investment option that many people choose to grow their money. When you open a fixed deposit, you park funds for a pre-set tenure. During this time, you earn certain interest on these funds. While you’ve invested in an FD, it’s important to track your interest income. One of the important tools to track your interest income is the FD interest certificate.

This document records details of all your fixed deposit details such as invested amount, rate of interest, tenure, interest accrued and more.
