Nestled amidst the bustling metropolis of Delhi NCR, Gurugram offers a vibrant lifestyle and a dynamic business environment. For residents planning their financial future, fixed deposit (FD) emerges as a compelling option.
Understanding fixed deposit
An FD is a financial instrument offered by banks and non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) in Gurugram. You invest a lump sum amount for a predetermined period (tenure) at a fixed interest rate. Upon maturity (the end of the tenure), you receive your principal investment along with the accrued interest. Here is a breakdown of the key characteristics:
- Guaranteed returns: Unlike market-linked investments that fluctuate, FDs offer a pre-determined interest rate, ensuring a fixed return on your investment regardless of market conditions. This allows for predictable financial planning, especially for planned expenses.
- Flexibility: Financial institutions offer various FD tenures, ranging from a few days to several years. This allows you to tailor your investment to your specific needs. Whether you are saving for a short-term goal or a long-term one like retirement planning, you can choose a tenure that aligns with your financial horizon.
- Regular income option: Some FDs offer periodic interest payouts (monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, annually or at maturity). This provides a regular flow of income, which can be helpful for meeting ongoing expenses or supplementing your existing income stream.
