SBI Vs Kotak Vs Axis Vs ICICI Vs HDFC: Latest Interest Rates On FDs Compared

A fixed deposit (FD) is a type of investment that banks and NBFCs provide. When it comes to FDs, the interest rates are pre-determined that you'll earn at maturity when you invest. One of the many advantages given by fixed deposits, is assured returns. Interest rates of bank fixed deposits vary depending on the amount invested, the term of the deposit, and the type of depositor you are. FD provides a variety of tenure options, ranging from seven days to ten years. As a result, investors can pick the investment duration based on their personal finance goals. If you want to generate a decent rate of interest without taking any risks, FDs are a fantastic option.
