SBI, India Post Provide These Returns On Term Deposits. Compare Interest Rates Here

Most lenders today provide two types of term-deposit accounts: fixed deposit (FD) and recurring deposit (RD). A term deposit offers a fixed return against deposit for a particular lock-in period. A recurring deposit, also a type of term deposit, enables the investor to contribute to the account on regular intervals, unlike a fixed deposit which requires a lump-sum payment. Government-owned institutions such as State Bank of India, the country's largest bank, and India Post - the postal network of the country which also provides banking and remittance services - offer both recurring deposits and fixed deposits. .Here's a comparison of interest rates provided by SBI and the post office on term deposits (FD and RD):.State Bank of India (SBI) FD, RD interest rates.SBI pays interest at the following rates on retail domestic term deposits below Rs 2 crore:.table.tble_1info { border-top: solid 1px #ccc; border-left: solid 1px #ccc; xborder-right: solid 1px #ccc; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom:20px; } table.tble_1info th { background-color: #f5f5f5; padding: 5px 10px; border-bottom: solid 1px #ccc; border-right: solid 1px #ccc; } table.tble_1info td { border-bottom: solid 1px #ccc; border-right: solid 1px #ccc; padding: 5px 10px; line-height: 18px; } /*Media Query start*/ @media only screen and (max-width: 760px), (min-device-width: 768px) and (max-device-width: 1024px) { /* Force table to not be like tables anymore */ table.tble_1info, thead, tbody, th, td, tr { font-size: 14px; } } /* Smartphones (portrait and landscape) ----------- */ @media only screen and (min-device-width : 320px) and (max-device-width : 480px) { body { padding: 0; margin: 0; } table.tble_1info, thead, tbody, th, td, tr { font-size: 14px; } table.tble_1info th { padding: 4px; } table.tble_1info td { padding: 4px; } .itctc_main { overflow-x:scroll;overflow-y:hidden;} } /*Media Query END*/ .
