Secure Your Future: Some of the Best Fixed Deposit Rates in India 2024
- Fixed Deposits (FDs) provide low risk and stable returns to Indian investors. Investors need to make informed decisions regarding interest payout options, tenure and type of FD to ensure maximum value extraction.
- Cumulative and non-cumulative interest payout options are available for FD investments. Cumulative FDs accrue higher interest compounded over the tenure whereas non-cumulative FDs offer regular but lower interest payouts.
- Interest rates are subject to RBI regulations and needs to be compared across banks and NBFCs before investing in FDs.
- It's crucial to leverage the power of compounding to increase the returns on FD investments.
- Longer tenure FDs often yield better returns due to higher interest rates. Consider balancing liquidity needs and taking advantage of higher rates on long-term FDs by splitting investments across multiple FDs.
- Tax-saving FDs under Section 80C of Income Tax Act can provide yearly tax deductions of up to INR 1.5 Lakh. These deposits also reduce taxable income, but interest earned is taxable.
- Senior Citizen FDs offer additional interest rates of approx. 0.25-0.50%, making them appealing options for steady income seekers.
- Premature withdrawals of FDs come with a penalty and should be avoided. Alternately, investments can be split across multiple FDs with different maturities.
- Reinvestment options allow maximising interest earned through the power of compounding. Always compare interest rates at maturity before reinvesting to ensure the most favourable option.
- Make informed decisions when investing in FDs to maximise interest earnings and avoid penalties. Use an FD calculator to calculate monthly payouts or maturity amounts and plan your investments accordingly.
