Disclaimer: While deposits in small finance banks are insured by the Deposit Insurance Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) up to Rs 5 lakh, experts advise investors to exercise caution when investing in their FDs. Given their unique business model, the risk associated with investing in small finance bank FDs might differ slightly from that of scheduled commercial banks. To mitigate potential risks, it's recommended that investors limit their exposure to small finance bank FDs to an amount that falls within the DICGC coverage. This ensures that their principal and interest are protected in unforeseen circumstances.


Charges levied in premature withdrawal of FD

According to the Ujjivan Small Finance Bank website as of September 28, 2024, “Early FD withdrawal usually comes with penalty charges. If you withdraw the amount within 6 months, you may have to pay a penalty of up to 1% on the prevailing rate basis of the tenure. For example, if you have booked an FD for 1 year, the prevailing interest rate as on 5 September 2024 is 8.25%. However, if you close the FD after 60 days from the time of deposit, you will receive 3.25% interest. Here's how it's calculated:
• Prevailing Interest Rate for 60 days: 4.25%
• Premature withdrawal penalty before 6 months: 1%
• Eligible interest rate: 3.25%.”

“Ujjivan SFB does not levy any premature penalty for withdrawals made after 6 months from the time of deposit. As per RBI guidelines, depositors can prematurely withdraw funds from non-callable FDs during specific situations like bankruptcy, court order, business liquidation, or the depositor's demise. However, the penalty could be higher for premature withdrawal of non-callable Fixed Deposits,” said the bank on its website.
