SBI 444-day FD vs Bank of Baroda 400-day FD: What will be maturity amounts on Rs 6 lakh and Rs 10 lakh investments for general and senior citizens?
A Fixed deposit (FD) is a safer investment option than market linked investment plans. It provides guaranteed returns. It allows investors to invest a lump sum amount and let it grow over a fixed period at a fixed interest rate. FD interest rates are unaffected by market fluctuations, so they are considered good for people with a low risk appetite. One can choose to receive interest payments periodically or at maturity.
FD offers stable returns with a predetermined interest rate. Investors can invest a lump sum amount for a specific period, ranging from a short 7 days to a longer 10 years. State Bank of India’s Amrit Vrishti is a 444-day fixed deposit (FD) scheme launched on July 15, 2024. Among all SBI FDs, this scheme offers the highest interest rate to senior citizens. On the other hand, Bank of Baroda's 400-day fixed deposit (FD) scheme, called the Bob Utsav deposit scheme, offers higher interest rates for a limited time. In this article, we will find the maturity amounts of Rs 6 lakh and Rs 10 lakh investments in fixed deposits for general and senior citizens.
