SBI Annuity Scheme vs SBI FD vs SBI RD: A Comparison For Good Returns
State Bank of India (SBI) provides an annuity deposit scheme in which, after depositing a lump sum amount, customers can receive a fixed amount every month. A fixed amount is offered to the account holder in equated monthly instalments (EMIs) and as per SBI the EMIs contain both a part of the principal amount and interest on the declining of the principal amount, compounded on a quarterly basis and adjusted on a monthly basis. Thus, along with interest, the deposits made by the customers are returned to them in the form of a monthly installment.
Minimum deposit amount required for SBI Annuity Scheme
For the SBI annuity deposit, the minimum deposit amount with no upper limit is based on a minimum monthly annuity of Rs 1,000 for the applicable duration.
