Investing too much is not a good idea
Investing too much in FD schemes is also not a good idea. Therefore, you should manage your investment portfolio keeping your financial goals in mind. For example, saving through FD for your child’s higher education after 15 years may not be cost effective as this post taxes interest rate may not give you real returns (returns above the rate of inflation). But if you are planning a holiday after two years, then FD can prove to be a better investment tool.
