Introduction

A Recurring Deposit (RD) is a safe and convenient way of saving money while also earning interest on it. An RD allows you to deposit a fixed amount on a regular basis with your bank, and it is similar to a Fixed Deposit (FD) in that you enjoy a higher rate of interest than a savings account for the same principal amount.

The main difference between an FD and an RD is that a recurring deposit allows you to make ongoing periodic investments in the deposit, whereas in a fixed deposit, you need to deposit the entire lump amount at the time you open the FD account.

Advantages to opening an RD account

  • Interest Rate earned is generally equal to that of an FD
  • Safe and secure form of investment
  • Ideal for people who cannot deposit a large initial lump sum, but want to deposit small amounts on a regular basis
  • Can be opened with small minimum amount.
  • Lump sum received at maturity, including the interest
  • The rate of interest is higher as compared to an ordinary saving bank account
  • Flexible tenures to suit the budget of the individual
  • Loan / overdraft facility available with some banks.
