Check Out Latest Recurring Deposit Interest Rates Of Top Banks
Recurring deposit (RD) is a kind of term deposit that enables investors to contribute a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, and generates a guaranteed interest income. Unlike a fixed deposit (FD) account, in which a lump-sum amount is locked in for a defined period against a fixed return, an RD account allows the investor to put in a fixed amount of funds at regular intervals; for instance, every month. On maturity, the depositor is paid a lump-sum amount which includes the periodic investments and the interest income earned on them.Â
The interest rates applicable to RD accounts vary from bank to bank, and are subject to change from time to time. Earlier this week, private sector lender Axis Bank revised its interest rates on deposits on select maturities.Â
Here is a comparison of RD interest rates paid by State Bank of India (SBI), Punjab National Bank (PNB), Axis Bank, HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank:Â
