Double Benefit Term Deposit


  • Double Benefit Deposits provide a higher yield on the principal at the end of the stipulated period as the interest is compounded on quarterly basis; but, the principal and the accrued interest is paid only at the end of the period for which the deposit is placed with the Bank and not monthly or half-yearly as in the case of other types of deposits. This scheme is useful for short term and medium term investment ordinarily ranging from 12 months to 120 months.
