FD Rates: The reduction in rates by the Reserve Bank has also affected the deposit rates. However, some banks are still offering rates of 8 percent or higher.
In view of the uncertainty in the stock market, personal finance experts advise people to invest a part of their money in safe investments. Which includes FD. Usually people consider FD as an investment with limited returns, although here the money is safer than the market, so you stay away from both risk and tension. There is a possibility of deposit rates coming down due to the reduction in rates by the Reserve Bank. However, many banks, especially small finance banks, are still offering high rates. Take a look at the offers being given by the banks.
