Know more about KTDFC FDs

KTDFC is registered under the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and offers the public an option to invest in their deposit schemes. They have two types of fixed deposit accounts: periodic Interest Payment Scheme (PIPS) and Money Multiplier Scheme (MMS).

In the PIPs FD, depositors are paid interest either on a monthly basis or on a quarterly basis. Those who invest in the MMS scheme, will get paid at the time of maturity of the fixed deposit and in this case, the interest will be compounded each month. Note that even if interest compounding takes place monthly in this scheme, it will be paid only upon completion of the deposit tenure.
