By Anupama Deshpande | May 7, 2024
Recurring Deposit (RD) is a type of fixed deposit offered by all the banks in India where the investor has to deposit a fixed amount each month for a particular period. The RD tenure often ranges from 6 months to 10 years. Almost all leading public and private banks provide the facility of the RD account. The interest rate does not change during the entire RD tenure. Interest rate is calculated quarterly not annually and maturity amount is taxable. Note that in an RD account, partial withdrawals are not allowed, however, you can withdraw entire amount prematurely anytime but after charging a certain penalty.
RD as an investment tool allows investors to,
- Make regular deposits
- Ease of investments
- Get decent interest rate on the investment
- Flexibility to choose tenure
To make monthly investment in the RD account, the customer usually gives standing instruction (SI) to his banker to credit his RD account every month from his savings or current account.
