Many people who are unable to save a large lump sum amount, save small amounts of money. For such people, RD is a good option because through this you can save a fixed amount every month and also avail better interest on maturity. Although the option of RD is available in both banks and post offices. You will get RD of different tenures in the bank, while the RD of the post office is for 5 years. The interest being given on this RD is 6.7%. In this way, you can save a good amount in 5 years.

You can start RD with just Rs 100. Whatever amount you start your RD with, you have to deposit that amount every month on a fixed date. If many of your installments bounce, your account can be closed. If something like this has happened to you too, then know whether post office RD can be started again after it is closed?

When does RD close and how to restart it

When you are unable to deposit 4 consecutive installments in the post office, then your account is discontinued. But if you apply to restart it within the next two months, then it can be revived. However, in case of restarting a closed account, first of all, you have to deposit the outstanding installments of the previous month along with the penalty. But if you do not submit any application within a period of two months, then the RD account is completely closed.

If you are unable to deposit the installments then try this option

If you feel that your financial condition is not good and you may face difficulty in depositing the installments continuously for some time, then you can extend the maturity period of your account further. In such a situation, the extension time of the maturity period can be extended by the number of months for which you are not able to pay the installment. However, you will have to do this work beforehand. If you think of doing this after four months of installments bounce, then it will not be possible.
