In contrast, mutual funds don't offer guaranteed returns. Even if we talk about debt funds, they also have some equity exposure and don't offer guaranteed returns. But a lot of people who don't want to put their money for a long time in an investment scheme prefer investing in short- and medium-term debt funds. In many cases, they may offer slightly better returns. SBI is one such institution that offers FDs as well as debt mutual funds. While it is the bank that offers an FD, SBI Mutual Fund offers debt funds. The interest rate for the 5-year SBI FD for general citizens is 6.50 per cent annual, while for senior citizens, it is 7.50 per cent. The top SBI debt fund based on its 5-year performance is SBI Magnum Income Fund - Direct Plan. In this write-up, let's discuss the features of 5-year SBI FD for general citizens and SBI Magnum Income Fund and what Rs 5 lakh investment in each scheme five years ago has grown into today's date.
