Fixed deposits (FDs) are considered a safe and reliable investment. The biggest advantage is that they offer both security and fixed returns without any risk.
Even though repo rates have been reduced and many banks have lowered their FD rates, some banks have introduced special FD schemes for 444 days.
Banks like SBI, Canara Bank, Indian Bank, IDBI Bank, and Bank of Baroda are currently offering attractive interest rates on these 444-day deposits for general citizens, senior citizens, and super senior citizens.
