Questions people ask

What is the maturity of ₹2,000 a month for 5 years?

Is RD better than SIP?

An RD gives a fixed, guaranteed return. A SIP in an equity fund can earn more over long periods but its value moves with the market.

What happens if I miss an RD instalment?

Banks usually charge a small penalty for a late instalment, and several missed instalments can lead to the RD being closed early.
