The minimum tenure to be deposited is for 6 months to 120 months. Banks allow to withdraw the amount prematurely with some penalty. However, partial withdrawal is not allowed in RDs. For NRI customers, the minimum tenure of RD is 12 months in some banks.
2) Amount
In India, one can start with as low as Rs 100 and in multiples of Rs 10 and there is no upper limit in SBI or any other govt banks.

In case of premature withdrawal, the interest rate applicable will be lower of the base rate or interest will be paid at the rate applicable on the date of deposit, for the period maintained.
