The last day for IDBI Bank's special fixed deposit scheme, known as Utsav FD, is drawing fast. The bank has confirmed that the limited-period deposit plan would only be available until March 31, 2026. Depositors wanting higher interest rates than standard fixed deposits will thus pay close attention to the plan, particularly at a time when savers are searching for steady and reliable income. A special FD plan that offers higher interest rates on specific tenures is the Utsav FD scheme. In contrast to ordinary fixed deposits, IDBI Bank allows customers to book their fixed deposits for unique maturity periods such as 555 days and 700 days, which are designed to deliver slightly better yields to investors.

IDBI Bank Utsav FD Rates
IDBI Bank provides attractive interest rates for various tenures via the scheme, which are often higher than its standard FD rates. Senior citizens are entitled to an additional interest rate advantage, as is the case with the majority of bank deposits in India. This makes the scheme especially appealing to conservative investors who place a higher priority on protecting their capital than market-linked earnings.
| Special Buckets | General/NRE/NRO Interest Rates (% p.a.) | Senior Citizens Interest Rates (% p.a.) |
|---|---|---|
| 555 Days | 6.4 | 6.9 |
| 700 Days | 6.45 | 6.95 |

IDBI Bank is giving standard interest rates of 6.40% and 6.90% to senior citizens for the special maturity period of 555 days, while the general public will receive an interest rate of 6.45% and senior citizens will receive 6.95% for the special maturity bucket of 700 days. Investors who book IDBI Bank Utsav FD after the deadline will not be eligible for the aforementioned interest rates because the special tenures under Utsav FD are valid until March 31, 2026
