What Is A Recurring Deposit

Writer: MyRupayaMyRupaya



What is a recurring deposit, and how does it work? An RD account is one in which you invest a certain amount of money on a monthly basis.


But, you could wonder, what is the purpose of the RD account. You do, however, receive interest on your savings. It's a straightforward investment tool that teaches you how to invest money on a monthly basis while also earning income.


RD accounts are available at almost all banks. Every bank has a different rate of interest. It normally ranges between 5% and 8% every year.


What are the advantages and disadvantages of having an RD account?

An RD account has a number of features. The following are some of the most important features:


Starting with a Rs10 save is a good place to start. It's a time-saving device for all classes. An RD account allows you to start saving small and gradually increase your savings.


The minimum length of time you can invest in an RD account is generally six months. You have the option of investing for up to generally ten years.


Interest rate: The interest earned on your RD account is equivalent to that earned on fixed deposits and other investment vehicles.


Discipline: RD accounts aid in the development of a consistent saving habit.

Loan against RD: You can take out a loan using your Recurring Deposit account as collateral.


Withdrawal is only possible at the conclusion of the term. While premature withdrawals are not permitted, certain banks may enable you to do so in exchange for a fee.


What are the advantages of having an RD account?


An RD account has a number of advantages. Let's have a look at a few of these benefits:


High rates of return: Most banks provide a rate of interest on their RD accounts that is competitive with other savings options such as a fixed deposit. Some even pay out more money than a savings account. Even if you start with tiny investments, you may earn a lot of money.


Start small: An RD may be started with as little as Rs10. It allows you to start with tiny amounts of money. So, what is the purpose of the RD account? Every month, you make tiny investments and receive interest.


The procedure is straightforward: It's simple to open an RD account, especially if you already have a savings account. All you have to do in such scenario is link the RD account to the savings account.


Suitable for short-term objectives: To meet your short-term costs, you might begin saving in an RD. It also assists you in developing the habit of saving money on a regular basis.


Save in little increments: Unlike other savings programmes that demand big lump sum payments, an RD account allows you to make incremental deposits at regular times. At the same time, the interest rate is comparable to that of similar programmes.


What is an RD account if not a great way for newcomers to save money?

If you're new to investing and want to start saving money, an RD account is a good place to start. It's also great for folks on a tight budget who wish to save money for a certain purpose.
