Interest Rates On Fixed Deposits, Recurring Deposits, Savings Accounts Of SBI, ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank
Major banks State Bank of India (SBI), HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank offer many personal banking products such as savings accounts, recurring deposit (RD) accounts and fixed deposit (FD) accounts. Savings accounts help customers save and park their money safely with the bank. Interest rates on savings banks accounts are modest. Fixed deposit accounts make customers fix a particular deposit of money for a given tenure, which means the money is locked for a term chosen by the customer. Interest rates on fixed deposit accounts are generally higher compared with savings bank accounts. Fixed deposits with lock-in periods of five or ten years but without a premature withdrawal facility offer income tax benefits. Recurring deposits or RD accounts enable customers to build their wealth via regular savings at periodic intervals. The interest rates on recurring deposits are as attractive as on fixed deposits.
Here's a comparison of interest rates offered by the three major banks on these products:
