    INTRODUCTION

    Savings Meaning:

    In deposit terminology, the term Savings refers to money set aside for the

    purpose of future use. Savings generally represent only one part of an

  • 7/31/2019 Savings Schemes of Banks

    6/36

    individuals assets and, unlike investments, they usually have a minimal

    exposure to risk.

    Savings Example:

    For example, Savings will often be deposited into a bank savings account where

    the funds will earn a nominal amount of interest and will be insured in most

    cases. In the United States, bank savings and checking accounts are insured by

    the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or FDIC. Savings accounts in

    countries other than the United States carry different terms that may even

    include different currency deposit options. Most major countries have their own

    versions of deposit insurance to protect the Savings accounts of the customers

    of financial institutions. Savings represent an important part of an individuals,

    as well as a nations, basic assets.

    Definition of 'Savings Account'

    A deposit account held at a bank or other financial institution that providesprincipal security and a modest interest rate. Depending on the specific type ofsavings account, the account holder may not be able to write checks from the

    account (without incurring extra fees or expenses) and the account is likely tohave a limited number of free transfers/transactions. Savings account funds areconsidered one of the most liquid investments outside of demand accounts andcash. In contrast to savings accounts, checking accounts allow you to writechecks and use electronic debit to access your funds inside the account. Savingsaccounts are generally for money that you don't intend to use for daily expenses.To open a savings account, simply go down to your local bank with properidentification and ask to open an account. Savings deposits Accounts that payinterest, typically at below-market interest rates, that do not have a specific

    maturity, and that usually can be withdrawn upon demand.

    FIXED DEPOSITS

    A Fixed Deposit (also known as FD) is a financial instrument provided by

    Indian banks which provides investors with a higher rate of interest than a

    regular savings account, until the given maturity date . It may or may not

    require the creation of a separate account. It is known as a Term Deposit in the

    Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the US and as Bond in United Kingdom

    they are considered to be very safe investments. Term Deposits in India is used

    to denote a larger class of investments with varying levels of liquidity. The

    defining criteria for a Fixed Deposit is that the money cannot be withdrawn for

    the FD as against Recurring Deposit or Demand deposit before maturity. Some

    banks may offer additional services to FD holders such as loans against FD

    certificates at competent interest rates. Its important to note that banks may

    offer lesser interest rates under uncertain economic conditions. The interest rate

    varies between 4 and 11 percent.The tenure of an FD can vary from 10, 15 or 45

    days to 1.5 years and can be as high as 10 years. These investments are safer

    than Post Office Schemes as they are covered under Deposit Insurance & Credit

    Guarantee Scheme of India. They also offer Income tax and Wealth tax benefits.

    Fixed deposits are a high-interest-yielding Term deposit offered by banks inIndia. The most popular form of Term deposits are Fixed Deposits, while otherforms of term Deposits are Recurring Deposit and Flexi Fixed Deposits (thelatter is actually a combination of Demand deposit and Fixed deposit).

    To compensate for the low liquidity, FDs offer higher rates of interest thansaving accounts. The longest permissible term for FDs is 10 years. Generally,the longer the term of deposit, higher is the rate of interest but a bank may offerlower rate of interest for a longer period if it expects interest rates, at which RBIlends to banks ("repo rates"), will dip in the future.

    Usually in India the interest on FDs is paid every three months from the date ofthe deposit. (e.g. if FD a/c was opened on 15th Feb., first interest instalmentwould be paid on 15 May). The interest is credited to the customers' Savingsbank account or sent to them by cheque. This is a Simple FD. The customer

    may choose to have the interest reinvested in the FD account. In this case, thedeposit is called the Cumulative FD or compound interest FD. For suchdeposits, the interest is paid with the invested amount on maturity of the depositat the end of the term.

    Although banks can refuse to repay FDs before the expiry of the deposit, theygenerally don't. This is known as a premature withdrawal. In such cases, interestis paid at the rate applicable at the time of withdrawal. For example, a deposit ismade for 5 years at 8 %, but is withdrawn after 2 years. If the rate applicable onthe date of deposit for 2 years is 5 per cent, the interest will be paid at 5 per

    cent. Banks can charge a penalty for premature withdrawal.Banks issue a separate receipt for every FD because each deposit is treated as adistinct contract. This receipt is known as the Fixed Deposit Receipt (FDR), thathas to be surrendered to the bank at the time of renewal or encashment.

    Many banks offer the facility of automatic renewal of FDs where the customersdo give new instructions for the matured deposit. On the date of maturity, suchdeposits are renewed for a similar term as that of the original deposit at the rateprevailing on the date of renewal.

    Income tax regulations require that FD maturity proceeds exceeding Rs 20,000not to be paid in cash. Repayment of such and larger deposits has to be either by

    RECURRING DEPOSITS

    It is a saving avenue which works like the systematic investment plan of a

    mutual fund, wherein a particular amount of money is deducted from your

    account every month. You have to apply for a recurring deposit account and ask

    the bank to deduct the stipulated amount from your savings or current account

    every month. Your deposit can also be paid through internet banking. Almost all

    banks offer this scheme and you can invest as little as Rs 5 with public sector

    banks or, Rs 500 with private banks. The investment tenure ranges from a

    minimum of six months to a maximum of 10 years. The date of monthly

    instalments will depend on the date on which you open your account. If you

    started on June 1, 2011, your installments will be deducted on 1st of every

    Tax on Recurring Deposits

    First, what I do know for sureRDs are not tax free!While doing research for this article I came across a few forums where peoplewere asking if interest income from RDs is tax free or not. I dont know what

    the origin for the question is but it could be people confusing no TDS with anytax at all.Banks dont deduct tax at source on RDs but the interest itself is taxable like

    other interest income. It will be added to the rest of your income and taxed atyour slab.

  • 7/31/2019 Savings Schemes of Banks

    18/36

    This is what I think will happenIf you take a RD for the duration of over a year, say 2 yearsthen you willhave to see how much interest accrues to you in one financial year, and thendeclare that interest as part of your return and pay tax on it.

    So, even though you are stillpaying installments for the RD, and it hasntmatured yet, you will need to declare the income that has accrued to you, andpay tax on it.

    Interest rates on Recurring Deposits

    I was going through the interest rate page of ICICI Bank, and saw that they giveinterest rates of 8.25% on RDs of 12, 15, 18, and 21 months, but they give9.25% on a 390 day fixed deposit.A few other bank websites said that they offered RDs at the same interest rate asthe fixed deposit, but I think that means exclusion of special interest rates thatbanks give on deposits of 390, 555, 400 day maturities etc., and since these arethe maturities that give you the higher interest rate, it looks like the interest on aRD will be lower than a fixed deposit.

    Effect of Direct Tax Code on Recurring Deposits

    Ive seen that sooner or later someone comes along and asks how DTC will

    affect a particular product, so I thought to include this here.There are no tax benefits of investing in RDs, they arent covered underSection80C, and the interest is not tax free either. So, there are no tax benefits ofinvesting RDs that will be affected negatively by the DTC. The tax slabs willchange in DTC, and since interest income from RDs are going to be taxedaccording to your income slabthats the only effect that DTC will have onRD. In my opinion, this is not material or something that will make a differencein your decision to opt for a RD or not.

    Stopping Recurring Deposits Early

    Banks allow you to stop your recurring deposit earlier than the maturity period,but like fixed deposits, you get a lower interest rate than what you have settledfor, and in some cases there is some penalty as well, which is also called aservice charge in some banks.

    SAVINGS BANK ACCOUNT

    Savings accounts are accounts maintained by retail financial institutions that

    pay interest but cannot be used directly as money in the narrow sense of

    a medium of exchange (for example, by writing a check). These accounts let

    customers set aside a portion of their liquid assets while earning a monetary

    return. For the bank, money in a savings account may not be callable

    immediately and therefore often does not incur a reserve requirement freeing up

    cash from the bank's vault to be lent out with interest.

    The other major types ofdeposit account are transactional (checking)

    account, money market account, and time deposit.

    Investopedia explains 'Savings Account'

    Because savings accounts almost always pay lower interest rates than Treasury

    bills and certificates of deposit, they should not be used for long-term holding

    periods. Their main advantages are liquidity and superior rates compared to

    checking accounts. Most modern savings accounts offer access to funds through

    visits to a local branch, over the internet and through automated teller

    machines.

    Savings accounts are accounts maintained by retail financial institutions that

    pay interest but cannot be used directly as money (for example, by writing a

    cheque). These accounts let customers set aside a portion of their liquid assets

    while earning a monetary return.

    How to Deposit Money in a Savings Account

    Saving money is one thing that many people find difficult. However, starting a

    savings account at your bank is one way to get your own nest egg started.

    Depositing money in your savings account can be done in several different

    ways.
