Company Fixed Deposit
Company Fixed Deposit
Company Fixed Deposits (Company FDs) are term deposits that are offered by non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) and other corporations, rather than commercial banks. They function much like standard bank fixed deposits (FDs): an investor commits a lump sum of money for a specific, fixed period and earns a predetermined interest rate on that amount.
Benefits
- Higher Returns: Company FDs typically provide 2-4% higher interest rates than traditional bank FDs, making them a more profitable investment option.
- Steady Income: Investors can select a plan to receive regular interest payouts on a monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, or annual basis, ensuring a consistent stream of income.
- Flexible Withdrawal: Most Company FDs impose a minimum lock-in period of only 6 months. After this time, investors are generally allowed to withdraw the principal anytime they need.
- Tax Advantage: No TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is levied if the total interest earned from a single company does not exceed ₹5,000 per financial year.
