RBL Bank offers NRI Fixed Deposits through NRE, NRO and FCNR(B) accounts, giving Non-Resident Indians a choice between a tax-free repatriable rupee deposit, a taxable rupee deposit for Indian income, and a foreign-currency deposit that avoids exchange-rate risk. Interest rates vary by tenure and currency, and RBL Bank does not offer additional interest to senior citizen NRIs. Compare the tables above before booking a deposit.
An RBL Bank NRI Fixed Deposit is a term deposit that lets Non-Resident Indians invest rupee or foreign-currency savings with RBL Bank for a fixed tenure at a fixed interest rate. NRIs can choose between NRE, NRO and FCNR(B) deposit accounts depending on the source of funds and repatriation needs.
An RBL Bank NRE Fixed Deposit holds foreign earnings converted into Indian rupees, and both the principal and interest are freely repatriable and exempt from tax in India. An RBL Bank NRO Fixed Deposit holds income earned within India, such as rent or dividends, and its interest is taxable, with repatriation subject to limits.
An RBL Bank FCNR(B) Fixed Deposit lets NRIs hold their deposit in a foreign currency instead of Indian rupees, which shields the investment from exchange-rate movements. RBL Bank offers FCNR(B) deposits across several major foreign currencies for tenures of one to five years.
Any Non-Resident Indian or Person of Indian Origin can open an RBL Bank NRI Fixed Deposit by holding or opening a qualifying NRE, NRO or FCNR(B) account with the bank. Standard NRI KYC documentation and proof of NRI status are required.
Yes, an RBL Bank NRI Fixed Deposit can be opened jointly, but the joint holder must also qualify as an NRI. This requirement applies across RBL Bank's NRE, NRO and FCNR(B) deposit schemes.
Yes, RBL Bank permits partial and full premature withdrawal on eligible NRI Fixed Deposits, subject to a penalty on the applicable interest rate. Some RBL Bank Fixed Deposit variants do not allow premature withdrawal, so it is worth checking the terms of the scheme chosen.
No, the additional interest rate RBL Bank offers senior citizens applies only to resident depositors and is not available on NRE or NRO Fixed Deposits. NRIs earn the same base rate published for the general category regardless of age.
Interest earned on an RBL Bank NRE Fixed Deposit is exempt from tax in India, while interest on an RBL Bank NRO Fixed Deposit is taxable and subject to TDS. Tax treatment in the depositor's country of residence should be checked separately.
The latest RBL Bank NRI FD interest rates for NRE, NRO and FCNR(B) deposits are listed in the rate tables above and vary by tenure and currency. RBL Bank revises these rates periodically, so it is worth checking the current tables before booking a deposit.
NRIs can apply for an RBL Bank Fixed Deposit online through the bank's NRI banking portal or by visiting an RBL Bank branch with the required NRI KYC documents. Existing RBL Bank NRI account holders can typically book a new deposit directly through net banking.
