Investing Rs. 1 crore in a Fixed Deposit is one of the most reliable ways to earn steady monthly income without worrying about market risks. Here’s a detailed breakdown of how much you can earn every month with Bajaj Finance FDs—plus the added benefits that make it one of India’s safest investment options.

Interest on a Rs. 1 Crore Fixed Deposit based on tenure

If you invest 1 crore in fixed deposit, your income per month will depend on the type of FD you choose- cumulative or non-cumulative. Let’s look at the expected monthly earnings from both these types of FDs with Bajaj Finance:

Scenario 2Senior citizen investing online/ offlineup to 7.07% p.a.Rs. 21,21,000
 


This is the calculation for 1 crore interest per month on Bajaj Finance Non-cumulative FD. Refer to the next table for Cumulative Fixed Deposit interest calculation.


Bajaj Finance Cumulative Fixed Deposit:

 Investor CategoryApplicable Interest RateTotal Interest Payout
Scenario 1Non-senior citizen investing offline/ onlineup to 6.95% p.a.
 
Rs. 22,33,265
 
Scenario 2Senior citizen investing online/ offlineup to 7.30% p.a.
 
Rs. 23,53,760
 


You can earn more from a 1 crore FD interest if you opt for a cumulative FD. This is because cumulative FD offers you the benefit of compounding, giving interest not only on the principal but also on the interest that gets added to the principal amount periodically.

Tax implications for Rs. 1 Cr fixed deposits

Before investing Rs. 1 Crore in a fixed deposit, it’s important to assess the tax impact and calculate your net earnings. Here's what you should know:

  • Banks and NBFCs deduct Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) if total interest income exceeds Rs. 50,000 in a financial year.
  • For senior citizens, the threshold is higher at Rs. 1,00,000 annually.
  • If PAN details are submitted, TDS is deducted at 10%.
  • Without PAN, the TDS rate increases to 20%.
  • You can submit Form 15G or 15H to avoid TDS if your total income is below the taxable limit.
  • Tax-saving FDs offered by banks qualify for deductions under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act—up to Rs. 1.5 lakh in a financial year.

How to calculate Rs. 1 crore FD interest per month

Calculating the monthly interest on a ₹1 crore Fixed Deposit (FD) is straightforward. The monthly return depends on three key factors — interest rate, tenor, and payout frequency (monthly, quarterly, or cumulative).

You can use this simple formula to calculate your monthly FD interest:


Monthly Interest = (Deposit Amount × Interest Rate) ÷ 12

For example:


If you invest Rs. 1 crore at an interest rate of 7.30% p.a. for 60 months, then your monthly interest will be:


Rs. 1,00,00,000 × 7.30% ÷ 60 = Rs. 42,23,242 / 60 = Rs. 70,385 per month.


So, with Bajaj Finance offering up to 7.30% p.a., your monthly earnings can be up to Rs. 70,385 depending on your chosen payout type and age. Book FD
