In the event of an early withdrawal of deposits, the applicable interest rate will be determined based on the duration the deposit has been held with the bank, in line with the rate that was in effect at the time of the initial deposit placement. To illustrate, if a deposit matures over a 5-year term, and the depositor chooses to close it prematurely after only 1 year, the interest rate used for calculation will be the one valid for a 1-year tenure at the time of the deposit’s inception.

Moreover, IDBI Bank will impose a 1% penalty on the applicable rate for deposits closed prematurely. This penalty encompasses various withdrawal methods, including sweep-ins and partial withdrawals.
IDBI Bank maintains its commitment to providing customers with competitive and transparent FD interest rates, aligning its policies with the ever-evolving financial landscape.
