What is monthly interest payout?
 

Monthly interest payout is a credit amount you get at the end of every month on your savings. With this feature, you get an assured interest every month after opening a savings account with IDFC FIRST Bank. The amount will depend upon your account balance and the interest rate that you are offered.

How do interest payouts on Savings Account work?
 

According to RBI guidelines, the interest that banks give on your savings account is calculated on a per day basis. This interest gets accumulated and is credited to your account on a quarterly or a half-yearly basis, depending on the type of account you have, and the set of guidelines followed by your bank. In 2016 RBI updated the guidelines to crediting quarterly interest on savings accounts, replacing the earlier rule of half-yearly credit.

The formula used to calculate this interest is:

Accumulated interest = (Daily Balance) * (Number of days) * (Interest) / (No. of days in the year)

Your money shouldn’t sit idle. With monthly interest credits and premium banking benefits, IDFC FIRST Bank ensures your savings don’t just rest, they grow.
