  • All major banks pay lower interest rates to senior citizens in comparison to normal FDs.
  • The longer the term, the greater the interest rate and maturity value, although certain banks provide special high rates for certain terms.
  • For an investment of ₹10,50,000, the maturity value after five years varies from approximately ₹14.78 lakh to almost ₹14.93 lakh, depending upon the bank.
  • FDs at scheduled banks are insured up to ₹5 lakh per depositor, adding an extra security.
  • Interest on FDs is taxed, and TDS is applied if the interest earned in a year is more than ₹50,000 for senior citizens.

Senior citizen FDs continue to be a safe and lucrative investment, with some of the highest rates being offered by banks such as ICICI Bank and PNB for specific tenures. Compare rates, look out for special plans, and review your goals before investing. Consider.
