Frequently asked questions

Is FD interest taxable?

Yes, fully, at your slab rate. Banks deduct 10% TDS when interest exceeds ₹50,000 a year (₹1 lakh for senior citizens, limits per Budget 2025). Effective post-tax return in the 30% slab is ~4.6% on a 6.6% FD.

What are current FD rates?

As of mid-2026, large banks pay roughly 6.25–7% for 1–3 year deposits and small finance banks up to ~8%; senior citizens get ~0.5% extra. Rates change with the RBI cycle — enter your bank's exact card rate.
