A Loan against Fixed deposit in India is generally taken when you don’t have a good credit score, when you cannot pledge anything as security or collateral to obtain a loan, or when you don’t have a source of stable income. It comes with lower interest rates as compared to other loan options with rates being 1% or 2% above the FD rate. You can repay the FD in 60 months. Many banks offer loans against FDs. Here are some of the top banks.
