Special-Tenure FD Schemes That Offer Rates up to 8.05%; Invest before March 31, 2025
Several banks have introduced special fixed deposit (FD) schemes that offer high interest rates as compared to the traditional FD schemes. These FDs have a limited maturity period. In response to the central bank’s reduction in the repo rate, banks may also lower the rates in FD. It allows the customers to avail higher interest rates on their fixed deposits before banks decrease the rates. Here are some banks that offer these high-interest rate FDs.
- IDBI Bank: Utsav Callable FD
- State Bank of India (SBI): Amrit Vrishti and Amrit Kalash
- Indian Bank: IND Supreme 300 Days and IND Super 400 Days
The above FD scheme is effective till March 31, 2025. Invest before the mentioned deadline if you want to benefit from the high interest rates offered by them, as the banks are expected to lower these FD rates after March 31, 2025.
