New Delhi. Higher interest on short-term FDs, if you also want to take advantage of this scheme, then only 12 days are left. This special FD of 3 government banks including SBI will be closed on 30 September. These government banks had launched this special FD to attract customers. SBI, IDBI and Indian Bank offer interest ranging from 7.05 percent to 7.35 percent on their special FDs.
The biggest thing is that the tenure of these FDs is only 300 days to 444 days. This means that if you deposit money for about a year, you get more than 7 percent interest. Usually, one-year FDs get around 6 percent interest. So if you do not like to take more risk and want to get more interest, then you can invest in FDs of these three banks before September 30, 2024.
Interest on FDs is going to decrease.
It is being speculated that the US central bank Federal Reserve may reduce interest rates for the first time in 4.5 years after inflation and other figures come under control. After this, RBI can also decide to reduce the repo rate in India. In such a situation, there is a big expectation that banks will also reduce the interest rate on FDs in the future. Obviously, you can also get less interest on FD in the future. In such a situation, it would be better to take advantage of this special FD.
