Fixed deposits are conservative savings instruments that allow you to earn guaranteed returns (without any market exposure). Recently, the RBI has made several repo rate cuts, with the most recent 50 basis point cut coming on June 6, 2025.
It is expected that this rate-easing cycle may continue throughout 2025. Thus, if you are looking to invest ₹50,000 in an FD for 5 years, it may be the right time to book competitive FD rates before they slide even further!
