Complete Guide on Fixed Deposits

While several new-age investment options are available in India, Regular Fixed Deposits (FDs) are the most sought after. It is a type of Fixed Deposit by AU Small Finance Bank where customers can invest a lump sum amount to generate assured returns at a high interest rate for a fixed term. Here's everything you should know about AU Regular Fixed Deposits.

 

Top Features of AU Regular Fixed Deposits

1. Lucrative Returns

The interest rate is one of the most significant considerations for every customer wanting to open an AU Regular Fixed Deposit Account.

AU Small Finance Bank makes investing in AU Regular Fixed Deposit more rewarding by offering higher interest rates depending on the tenure and principal amount. Moreover, senior citizens can earn up to 0.50% extra interest on their FD investments. (Click here for the latest FD interest rates)

 

2. Payout Options

As every customer's investment objective differs, AU Regular Fixed Deposits come with flexible payout options.

For instance, we allow customers to choose between Monthly, Quarterly, and Cumulative (at maturity) payout options. The flexibility makes it easier for deposit holders to manage their cash flows more effectively.

 

3. Ease of Application

As a digitally forward bank, we enable customers to book an AU Regular Fixed Deposit Account from the comforts of their homes.

Customers can complete the FD application process online through the bank's official website, AU 0101 App, or AU Video Banking facility. But if you prefer the offline application method, you can also walk into the nearest bank branch to book an FD in person.  

 

4. Banking at Your Convenience

Customers who prefer the traditional method of having a one-on-one conversation with a bank executive by visiting the bank can upgrade to the AU Video Banking facility for a similar branch-like experience.

Through our AU Video Banking facility, customers can securely execute Fixed Deposit-related service requests from their homes without visiting the bank. 

 

5. Flexible Account Tenure

To further help customers customize their FD Account, you can choose from a highly flexible FD tenure, ranging from 7 days to 10 years.

Customers can conveniently select a tenure according to their investment objectives and cash flow requirements.
