Hi, I created one FD with SBM @10.5% for 300 days. Start date is 6th Oct 2008, Maturity date is 2nd Aug 2009 and Principal is Rs. 40,000/-. They have given FD certificate to me with final amount as Rs. 43,569/-. When I do my calculation I get maturity amount as Rs. 43,579/-.
I am using periods from (1) 6/10/2008-31/12/2008, (2) 1/1/2009-31/3/2009, (3) 1/4/2009-30/6/2009 and (4) 1/7/2009-2/8/2009.
Can anyone help me understand if I am doing something wrong here? If there is any FD calculator already available then please point me to that.

There are no standards, except that they go by conventions which can vary slightly from bank to bank. You have to go through the terms and conditions.
