Bank Fixed Deposit Interest Rates: For safe investment, investing money in fixed deposits (FD) of banks or post office is a better option. On this investment, the account holder gets the benefit of predetermined interest from the bank or post office. It is not affected by market fluctuations. Fixed deposits earn more interest than normal savings bank accounts. But in this your money gets locked for a long time.

In FD, there is an option to withdraw money before maturity, but in doing so, some charges or interest has to be lost. Apart from this, deposit insurance guarantee is also given to investors on FDs up to 5 lakhs. Banks, Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) and Post Offices change the interest rates of their fixed deposits when the policy interest rates are changed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) from time to time.
