Many investors invest their money in Fixed Deposit Schemes (FDs). Banks and Non-Banking Financial Institutions (NBFCs) offer higher interest rates to senior citizens than to general citizens.
The reason behind it is that they want to encourage people to invest more money in fixed deposits.
In this case, SBI also offers FDs with extended interest rate benefits to senior citizens.
SBI FDs for Senior Citizens offer interest rates of 7.30% on 1 year FD, 7.25% on 3 year FD and 7.50% on 5 year FD.
In this way, you can see how much return you will get if you invest Rs.3 lakh.
