Recurring deposit scheme offered by the SBI Bank provides an opportunity to build-up saving through regular monthly deposits of fixed sum over a period of time.
A recurring deposit is an investment cum savings option for those who want to save regularly over a certain period of time and earn a higher interest rate. It is a type of term deposit which allows one to save a fixed amount of money every month systematically. If you are familiar with SIP in Mutual Funds, RD works similarly in banking. Every month, a fixed amount of money is deducted either from a savings or a current account. And, at the end of the maturity, investors are paid back their invested money with accrued interest.

A user willing to open an RD account with SBI Bank can choose any amount and term according to your convenience.

You need to deposit a small amount of money at every interval. The minimum amount can be as low as INR 500.
SIPs can help in all kinds of investment goals, whether short- or long –term, depending on the frequency of investment, funds chosen and other factors.
SIPs offer flexible instalment plans of daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly etc.
Returns can be earned better here. The longer you invest via a SIP in mutual funds, especially in an Equity Fund, the higher are the chances to earn good returns.
To Cancel SIP, the investors can simply close their investment and withdraw their money without any penal charges.
