Tax saving FD: Tax saving FDs, unlike standard FDs, cannot be booked for less than a period of 5 years. The amount invested is exempt from tax under section 80C, but the interest generated from the FD is liable to be taxed.
Fixed Deposit plus: Such FDs provide higher interest than regular FDs. The fixed deposit plus requires a minimum investment of 2 crores and investors can choose between compound and simple interest.
