  1. Hi SUresh,

    My 5 year old daughter is getting 1 lac as a gift. I wanted to invest this as a one time investment for long term (10 years and above), can you pls suggest me some best options for this. Thank you.

    1. Various options. You can invest in debt mutual funds. You can buy NSC for 10 years where you can get 8.5% interest rate. You can open post office FD for 10 years.

      1. Thanks Suresh. Pls ignore my similar comments in the other subject item i had posted today. Thank you.

  2. As mentioned in the article about the site being not only the sole fd rates tacker but also one of the best information source different financial instruments. …kudos

  3. I see most of the banks have dropped their rates. Do you think this year the rates will just go down or is there any chance they will go up say end of this year?
    Also I was in Philippines last month and I must say our Indian banking system is way good than Philippines 🙂

    1. Hi Maven, Long time. As I indicated in my article, currently, interest rates are in downward trend. I don’t see any upside in near future. 

  4. Hi Suresh,
    I am planning to invest some money in the Karur Vysia bank for 5 years(They give 8.9%). Is it safe to invest in this bank?.. Is there is any chance that bank will change the interest rate after we make the FD.?

    Thanks and Regards,
    Arunkumar.P.G

    1. Hi Arun, No news from long term. You can invest in such banks. Once you do FD, they cannot change the interest rates. However if you are opting for auto renewal, while renewing, they can change it latest rates. Hence consider taking it for long term

  5. Hi,

    Please tell me some other low risk alternative to FD. these are giving very low interest.

    Thanks in advance!!
