Other schemes offer greater flexibility, allowing account holders to customize the deposit tenure and other details according to their individual preferences.

Different Types of Indian Bank FD Schemes

The interest will be paid out on quarterly intervals or in monthly intervals at a discounted rate. The minimum deposit is Rs.1,000 with no upper limit. The minimum tenure is seven days, and the maximum is 10 years.
  2. Money Multiplier Deposit:The scheme requires you to make a minimum deposit of Rs.1,000 and multiples of Rs.100 thereafter. There is no upper limit on the deposit amount. The deposit must be held with the bank for a tenure of 6 months up to 10 years. The interest gets compounded quarterly.
  3. Short Term Deposit:The scheme allows depositors to place their money for a short period and earn a fixed interest income. The interest will be paid on maturity along with the principal deposit. The tenure can range from 7 days up to 180 days. The minimum deposit is Rs.1,000 but no maximum limit. Senior citizens get an additional interest rate of 0.5% for deposits of up to Rs.10 crore, bank staff get 1.00% for deposits up to Rs.2 crore, and bank ex-staff who are senior citizens get 1.50% on deposits of up to Rs.10 crore.
