What is Fixed Deposit (FD)?

A fixed deposit is a financial instrument where an individual invests a lump sum amount with a financial institution (bank or NBFC) for a fixed tenure. In return, the investor receives a predetermined fixed interest rate, providing a secure and predictable source of income.

Benefits of investing in FD

  1. Safety and stability: FDs are known for their safety and stability, making them a preferred choice for risk-averse investors. The principal amount remains intact, and the interest earned is fixed, offering a sense of financial security.
  2. Flexible tenure: FDs offer flexibility in choosing the tenure of the investment. Investors can opt for short-term or long-term deposits based on their financial goals and liquidity needs. Bajaj Finance offers flexible tenure from 12 to 60 months on their FD.
  3. Loan against FD: Many financial institutions like Bajaj Finance allow investors to take loan against their FDs. This feature can be beneficial during financial emergencies, as it provides a source of liquidity without breaking the FD.
