New Interest Rates For Fixed Deposits At These Banks: Check Here

There is a ray of light for fixed deposit (FD) investors after a few years of struggling with low-interest rates. Banks have begun hiking interest rates payable on fixed deposits in response to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) raising its policy rate and the possibility of more hikes. One of the most popular investment options is a fixed deposit. Because bank FDs are perceived to be safer than stocks, many investors prefer them to equities. Term deposits are another name for fixed deposits. This is because money is deposited with a bank for a set length of time or term.
