Fixed deposit (FDs) remain one of the most popular financial instruments across age groups that offer guaranteed returns. Existing and potential customers can invest money in FDs for a specific period, ranging from seven days to 10 years. Especially, senior citizens have always preferred taking the FD route as it offers them a safe option to park their investment post-retirement to gain good returns in terms of steady earnings. Banks usually pay a higher rate of interest to senior citizens compared to the general public on FD accounts.
DCB Bank has revised interest rates with effect from May 15, 2021, on fixed deposits (FDs). Ranging from 7 days to 10 years, DCB Bank offers FDs across different tenures.

Additionally, for FDs maturing in 12 months to less than 15 months, the bank gives a 5.80% interest rate, while the FD interest rate for 15 months to less than 18 months is 6.00%.
