Due to rising inflation, there has been a shortage of cash with the banks, due to which it is becoming difficult for the banks to do their business i.e. to give loans. In the midst of all this, again there is good news for the general public.

But TDS is deducted on fixed deposits.
Talking about the return of fixed deposit, it is not tax free and TDS is deducted by the bank on it. Does average around 10% although in some cases it can be as high as 30%. Because of all this, the interest earned on fixed deposits gets further reduced after deducting the tax.
More interest than Fixed Deposit on Savings Account.
In the above table you have seen that many big banks including State Bank of India provide less than 6% interest on fixed deposits in which TDS will be deducted separately. Overall, the money in hand will be very less.
Today from October 21, RBL Bank has changed the interest rates on its savings account and these interest rates are more than the normal fixed deposit. Along with this, the interest received on the savings account remains in your account, due to which you start getting interest again on the entire money next month. Also, this interest is TDS free, due to which you get the full interest rate money.
