Special FD Schemes: In the last few years, the interest rate given by banks on FDs has been increased rapidly. The special fixed deposit (FD) scheme with higher interest rate from the banks has attracted a lot of investors.Â
The offers available for limited time period in these FD schemes give higher interest to the depositors, especially senior citizens, than normal FDs. The effect of the increase in repo rate by RBI after the Covid epidemic is seen on the interest rates of banks.
Advice to invest in special FD schemes for higher profits
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has cut the interest rate in the past few days. Usually, the interest rates of banks are determined by the RBI policy. Therefore, in the coming time, banks may cut the interest rate on FDs. It is possible that in the coming time, banks may also discontinue the special FD scheme. Therefore, people who want more profits are advised to invest before the last date of the special FD scheme.
