Recurring Deposit (RD)

Recurring Deposit (RD) is a facility for those people who have regular incomes, and who wish to regularly deposit a small, fixed amount at pre-determined periods, and for a fixed period. The interest depends on the period for which the client agrees to deposit the said RD amount.

Key points to know about Recurring Deposits:

  • A savings account is required to open a recurring deposit account.
  • The interest rate depends on the length of the RD term.
  • Upon maturity, the amount is credited directly to the savings or current account.
  • To set up automatic deduction, you need to create an SI.

For pre- closure of RD:

  • i)No interest will be paid if the RD is pre-closed within 3 months
  • If the RD is pre-closed after 3 months but before maturity, the rate of interest is 1% less than the prevailing rate for the tenure the deposit has completed or savings rate whichever is higher.
