Why Fixed Deposit?

Fixed deposits are considered to be one of the safest investment options. This is because their returns are not linked with the market.

Investment in a Fixed Deposit is locked for the tenure you choose. However, pre-mature withdrawals are allowed after a certain period.

The interest rate earned on a Fixed Deposit remains fixed throughout the tenure you choose. Also, interest rates offered by Corporate FDs are generally higher as compared to Bank FDs.

Investment in Fixed Deposits can be for various tenures. Tenures ranging from 1 to 5 years give you the flexibility to choose one that fits your financial goals.

Depending on your needs, you may opt for a monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, yearly, or cumulative interest payout option.

Invest in Corporate FDs that have been allotted higher credit ratings.

Other Features of Fixed Deposit

Higher interest rates are offered for senior citizens.

Reinvesting the interest amount enables you to earn additional returns on your investments.

TDS is not applicable if the interest earned is equal to or less than ₹5,000 in a financial year from a single company.
