Shriram City Union Finance (Shriram City), one of India's leading deposits accepting NBFCs, has announced a high yield fixed deposit (FD) scheme to benefit its potential clientele in the best possible way. Shriram City has launched Shriram City Fixed Deposit Scheme” with the tenure of up to 5 years. The cumulative fixed deposit scheme offers 8.09% p.a. interest rate to its valued customers with an additional 0.40% p.a. interest to senior citizens which altogether results in effective yield of 9.94% p.a. and 10.53% p.a. respectively. The Non-Cumulative scheme which gives pay-out in regular intervals attracts an interest rate of 8.40% p.a. and an additional 0.4% p.a. to the senior citizens for a tenure of 5 years.

 

Effective from 1st August, the scheme is exclusively crafted with keeping in mind the financial needs of the senior citizens. Even at this tumultuous time when a series of repo rate cuts has led to several banks and NBFCs reducing interest rates on fixed deposits, Shriram City Union Finance has launched such a high yielding fixed deposit scheme. The most attractive feature of this one-of-a-kind FD scheme is that it gets cumulated on monthly basis and gives higher effective yield in comparison to the other fixed deposits in the market.
