Fixed Deposit Interest Rates: Here's What Top Banks Offer

Fixed deposits (FDs) are secure financial instruments offered by commercial banks, small finance banks, non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) and post offices, which fetch guaranteed returns. In a fixed deposit account, money can be invested for a higher rate of interest than savings accounts. One can deposit a lump sum of money in fixed deposits for a specific period, ranging from seven days to 10 years. The fixed deposit accounts which have a lock-in period of five or 10 years also offer income tax benefit under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. .Here's a comparison of the latest interest rates paid by SBI, Kotak Mahindra Bank, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank on FDs up to Rs. 1 crore:.State Bank of India (SBI):.Given below are the latest SBI FD interest rates on deposits below Rs 1 crore: table.sbi { border-top: solid 1px #ccc; border-left: solid 1px #ccc; border-right: solid 1px #ccc; } table.sbi th { background-color: #f5f5f5; padding: 5px 10px; border-bottom: solid 1px #ccc; border-right: solid 1px #ccc; text-align: center; } table.sbi td { border-bottom: solid 1px #ccc; border-right: solid 1px #ccc; padding: 5px 10px; text-align: center; } table.sbi th:nth-child(1), table.sbi td:nth-child(1) { width: 40%; text-align: left; } table.sbi th:last-child, table.sbi td:last-child { border-right: 0; } @media only screen and (max-device-width: 480px) and (min-device-width: 320px) { table.sbi { display: table; min-width: 280px; max-width: 100%; } table.sbi th, table.sbi td, table.sbi th:nth-child(n+1), table.sbi td:nth-child(n+1) { display: table-cell; line-height: normal; } table.sbi th:last-child, table.sbi td:last-child { border-right: 0; } .
