Fixed Deposits Interest Rates: Investing in FDs under the debt category, whether you are a general or a senior citizen, is a must. Because here you get the return at the fixed rate of interest during the chosen maturity period. In FD, you get the facility to invest with maturity ranging from 7 days to 10 years. This allows you to meet various different investment objectives. On the other hand, in FD your money is safe, as your deposits up to Rs 5 lakh are insured by DICGC. Despite the fact that fixed deposit interest rates are falling (as many RBIs have kept the repo rate constant at 4%) here we will give you a list of banks which are still giving good returns on FDs. These interest rates are for amounts less than Rs 2 crore and tenure of 3-5 years.
