Planning to invest 6L in fd in fedbank nre account.
Let’s say you start with 6L in your Fedbank.

- At the end of the first year, the Fedbank adds 10% of your ₹6,00,000 to your total. So, it gives you ₹60,000 (10% of ₹6,00,000).
- Now, your total money in the Fedbank is ₹6,60,000 (₹6,00,000 + ₹60,000).

- In the second year, the Fedbank doesn’t just give you 10% of the original ₹6,00,000. It gives you 10% of the whole amount, which is ₹6,60,000 now.
- So, it gives you ₹66,000 (10% of ₹6,60,000).

- Your total money becomes ₹7,26,000 (₹6,60,000 + ₹66,000).
This keeps happening every year. The piggy bank adds interest on the total amount, not just the initial ₹6,00,000.
After 10 years, your giant Fedbank could have a lot more money than you started with!

I used a 10% rate for easy calculations. However, actual bank Fixed Deposit (FD) rates typically range from 6.5% to 9%. The 9% rate is relatively rare, but if you qualify as a senior citizen, you might be eligible for it.

Keep your money in one bank and let it be as it is .... because compounding will show you results. Don't do any creativity with that and then see how the returrns grow itself compounding.
