Calculating monthly interest on a Rs. 30 lakh fixed deposit
Monthly interest depends on the principal amount and the applicable annualised monthly payout rate.
You can estimate the monthly interest using this formula:
Monthly interest = Principal amount × Annualised monthly payout rate ÷ 12
Example:
For example, consider a customer below 60 investing Rs. 30 lakh at a 7.16% p.a. monthly payout rate.
Monthly interest = Rs. 30,00,000 × 7.16% ÷ 12
Monthly interest = Rs. 17,900
Therefore, the investor can receive approximately Rs. 17,900 monthly before TDS.Use the monthly payout rate for this calculation. The cumulative rate applies when interest is received at maturity.

How much monthly interest can be earned on a Rs. 30 lakh FD?
The monthly income depends on whether you select a cumulative or non-cumulative fixed deposit. A cumulative deposit reinvests the interest throughout the tenure. You receive the principal and accumulated interest together at maturity. A non-cumulative fixed deposit pays interest monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or annually. Choose the monthly payout option when you need regular income for household expenses or other planned payments.
Bajaj Finance Fixed Deposit offers cumulative rates up to 7.75% p.a. for customers below 60. Senior citizens can earn cumulative rates up to 8.15% p.a. Monthly payout rates are slightly lower than corresponding cumulative rates. The 30 lakh FD interest per month is highest within the 31-to-60-month range under the current rate schedule. Bajaj Finance Fixed Deposit carries CRISIL AAA/STABLE and [ICRA]AAA(Stable) ratings. Its returns remain unaffected by market movements. A corporate fixed deposit carries issuer-related risk. Credit ratings help investors assess the issuer’s financial stability.
