A loan against fixed deposit (FD) is a type of loan that allows you to borrow money by using your FD as collateral. In other words, you can take a loan against the amount you have deposited in your FD without breaking it.
The amount you can borrow depends on the amount you have deposited in your FD. Typically, you can borrow up to up to 75% of principal in case of cumulative, and up to 60% of principal in case of non-cumulative.
The interest rate on the loan is usually lower than other types of personal loans because the FD acts as collateral, which reduces the lender's risk.
The tenure of the loan is usually the remaining period of your FD, and you can choose to pay back the loan in installments or in a lump sum at the end of the tenure.
If you are unable to repay the loan, the lender can use your FD as collateral and withdraw the amount owed from it. Therefore, it is important to repay the loan on time to avoid losing your FD.
Overall, a loan against FD is a convenient option for those who need immediate funds but do not want to break their FD. It is also a good option for those who may not qualify for other types of loans due to poor credit history or other reasons.
