• The total deposit amount is multiplied by the monthly RD with the Tenure in months.
• Simple interest is calculated on the total deposit in the first quarter using the annual rate.
• From the second quarter onwards, compound interest is calculated on the principal plus accumulated interest.
• This process continues until maturity, with interest for each quarter added to the principal.
• The final maturity amount includes all deposited installments plus the total interest earned.
