Things to consider when investing Rs. 15,000 in FD

  1. Interest rate: Investors should first check the interest rate offered by the financial institution providing the fixed deposit. Interest rates vary among financial institutions, so comparing them before taking any decision is essential.

  2. Type of FD: The type of FD you are selecting can impacts your returns. In a cumulative FD, interest is compounded and is paid at maturity, while in a non-cumulative FD, interest is paid at regular intervals. Generally cumulative FD provides higher interest rate compared to non-cumulative FD.

  3. Tenure: Carefully select the FD tenure, considering longer tenures often come with higher interest rates. However, select the tenure that aligns with your financial goals and liquidity needs.

  4. Premature withdrawal: Understanding the penalties associated with premature withdrawal is essential. Some financial institution impose a penalty if you withdraw your amount before the maturity date, this can impact your overall returns. Be aware of these terms before making any decision.

  5. Inflation: Consider the impact of inflation. Ensure that your FD interest rate at least matches or exceeds the inflation rate to safeguard the real value of your money over time.
