More details:

A fixed deposit is a savings option that helps you earn interest on savings invested with a financial institute of your choice. You can choose to get returns periodically or at maturity. The rate of interest earned is higher than money kept in savings accounts.

Bajaj Finance introduces FD Max where you can get attractive FD interest rates of up to 8.85% p.a. for senior citizens and 8.60% p.a. for customers below 60 years, with Bajaj Finance FD Max, on deposit amount up to Rs. 25,000. For deposit amount more than Rs. 25,000, senior citizens can get interest rates of up to 8.65% p.a., and customers below 60 years can get interest rate up to 8.40% p.a.
