Compare Your 3-5 Year Fixed Deposits Interest Rates

As it is widely known that on term deposits are reasonably risk-free and have a guaranteed return. The accumulated interest is added with the principal amount at maturity, and the net amount is returned to the account holder. Capital deposited in the Fixed Deposit Scheme is only for one time when the account is opened for a set period of time and interest earned on it is influenced by the type of bank, tenure and type of depositor. The amount deposited in a fixed deposit cannot be withdrawn until the maturity date, as the name suggests. A Fixed Deposit's term will be as short as seven days and as long as ten years and across the same tenure senior citizens get higher FD interest rates, which range from 0.25 per cent to 0.65 per cent higher than non-senior citizens. Here, we have compiled top small finance, public sector, and private sector banks that are currently providing higher returns on 3-5 year fixed deposits.
