Senior citizens get a slightly higher interest rate on FDs than general citizens. However, the rate of interest varies from bank to bank and depends on various factors, including tenure. Because of their guaranteed return feature, FDs are considered the safest type of investment, and they are very popular among senior citizens. They have different tenures ranging from seven days to 10 years. The senior citizen FD scheme is available to Indian residents aged 60 and above.
