Fixed deposits (FDs) are among the most popular investment options because of their safe and guaranteed return features. Senior Citizen Fixed Deposit Plans allow senior citizens to earn a little higher interest rate than the general public. However, a number of other criteria matter to senior citizen FD interest rates, and tenure is one of the most crucial ones.
