Taxes on HDFC Bank Fixed Deposits

You are liable to pay taxes on the interest income you receive from a fixed deposit. The interest income contributes to your overall tax obligation. Additionally, you need to be aware that interest from FDs is essentially added to your yearly income. Your tax bracket is calculated by considering your overall income. Since interest from fixed deposits is regarded as ‘income from other sources,’ it is taxable under TDS. The TDS is taken out immediately after the interest income is credited into your account. Here are a few points regarding tax on fixed deposits:

  • Under the new tax regime (the default option), you pay no tax on total income - including FD interest - up to Rs.12 lakh (Rs.12.75 lakh for salaried individuals, after the standard deduction), thanks to the Section 87A rebate; under the old regime, the basic exemption limit remains Rs.2.5 lakh. However, you may be asked to submit Form 15G or 15H for claiming deductions.
  • Your annual interest income from all fixed deposits is exempt from taxes if it doesn't exceed Rs.50,000 (as of April 2025).
  • A TDS of 10% will be applicable on the annual interest income of more than Rs.50,000 (as of April 2025). Additionally, the bank may deduct 20% TDS for individuals who do not have a PAN card.

HDFC Fixed Deposit - Premature Withdrawal

An Interest rate will be applicable for premature closure and this will be the lower amount of either of these:

  • The base rate for the original tenure of the deposit
  • The base rate which is applicable for the tenure for which deposit has been with the bank

The base rate will be applicable to all deposits amounting to less than Rs.2 crore on the date of booking your deposit. For all deposits that are more than Rs.5 crores, the base rate will be for Rs.5 crore as on the date of booking your deposit. For premature withdrawals, like sweep-ins and also partial withdrawals, HDFC Bank will levy a penalty of 1%. The penalty for premature withdrawal will not be applicable for any fixed deposits that are booked for a tenor of 7 days to 14 days.

How to Calculate HDFC Fixed Deposit Interest Rates

The interest that you earn on your FD depends on several factors, including the amount, rate of interest, tenure, frequency of interest calculation, and taxation. To calculate the interest earned on your HDFC FD is hassle-free and simple. All you have to do is visit the online HDFC FD calculator to know the amount you can earn after maturity.
