5 NBFCs offering up to 9% FD interest rate for senior citizens Here are popular NBFCs offering best fixed deposit interest rates

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) regulates NBFCs or Non-banking Financial Companies in accordance with the RBI Act of 1934. Due to the credit risk attached to NBFCs, they typically provide higher interest rates on their fixed deposits (FDs) than banks.

Safety frequently takes a backseat when pursuing higher interest rates, which results in defaults and repayment delays. It is therefore better to invest in a fixed deposit that has received the greatest safety ratings from reputable credit rating agencies.

Non-Cumulative FD
In a Non-Cumulative FD, the interest earned is distributed in accordance with your preferences at regular periods. You have a choice between monthly and quarterly interest payments.

Depending on your preferences for liquidity and investing objectives, you can choose between the cumulative and non-cumulative. The cumulative FD is an excellent choice if you wish to create a corpus for short- or long-term goals. However, the non-cumulative FD is better suited if you require consistent revenue to cover ongoing expenses.

According to the Axis Bank, “Keep in mind that a Cumulative FD can yield higher interest returns because of compounding but the interest is paid out at the end of the tenure. On the other hand, Non-Cumulative FDs offer a regular income through periodic interest payouts.”
