444-Day Special FDs: Fixed Deposits (FDs) have long been a preferred investment option for individuals looking for stable and assured returns. But with the rising popularity of mutual funds and equities, traditional FDs have witnessed a dip in investor interest. To counter this trend, several banks have rolled out special limited-period FD schemes offering slightly higher interest rates.
Among these is the 444-day special FD, currently available with major banks like State Bank of India (SBI), Bank of Baroda (BoB), Indian Overseas Bank (IOB), and Indian Bank. In this article, we break down the potential maturity values for investments of Rs 6.25 lakh and Rs 7.25 lakh under these 444-day FDs, comparing the returns across these leading banks.
