While the ideal tenure for a fixed deposit depends on your specific requirements and financial goals, Bajaj Finance offers attractive options for maximising your returns. For those seeking the highest FD rates, Bajaj Finance provides an idle tenure of 42 months, allowing you to benefit from competitive interest rates and steady growth.
However, if your primary focus is on achieving maximum returns, Bajaj Finance offers an even more lucrative option with a tenure of 60 months. By opting for this longer tenure, you can potentially leverage compounding and capitalise on the higher interest rates to optimise your investment returns over the extended duration.
