Rs 5 lakh Investment in Special FD: Here's what senior citizens can get on Rs 5,00,000 deposit in PSU banks' special fixed deposit schemes

Fixed deposits (FDs), also called term deposits, provide a better interest rate to senior citizens and others than ordinary savings accounts. On the other hand,  special FDs (fixed deposits) give a better interest rate than general FDs, and senior citizens usually get a higher interest rate from FDs than general citizens. Depending on your financial goals, investment horizon, and risk appetite, FDs can be a good investment option. In FDs, you invest a lump sum amount for a certain time to get a fixed interest rate. As FDs provide guaranteed returns, these are good for people who don't want to risk their capital and want a fixed income. 

This article will talk about special FDs provided by PSU banks like State Bank of India (SBI), Canara Bank, Bank of Baroda (BoB), Punjab National Bank (PNB), and Central Bank of India. We will also calculate the maturity amount on an Rs 5,00,000 investment in these special FD schemes for senior citizens.
