Under this RD scheme, depositors can create financial goals to save for specific wishes. These goals can be shared on Facebook with friends and family who further can choose to contribute to the goal. The scheme also comes with a special feature “Wish Save The Change”, which helps depositors in reaching their target amount faster by rounding off their everyday transactions and auto investing the amount in their respective iWish accounts. The facility can be enabled for any one of the 25 allowed iWish accounts. Currently, there are three round-off options available — Rs 50, Rs 100 and Rs 500.

Beside this, a premature withdrawal penalty of 0.50%-1% will be levied on premature closure of the RD account.
• Partial withdrawal Facility: The premature partial withdrawal facility is not available on iWish account.

  • TDS shall be applicable on the interest earned on recurring deposit/ variable recurring deposits etc.

Recurring Deposit with Monthly Income Scheme

Recurring Deposit with Monthly Income Scheme has features of a Recurring Deposit (RD) in Investment phase and Annuity Fixed Deposit in Payout phase.

• Minimum value of instalment: Rs 2,000 per month and thereafter in multiples of Rs 100
• Tenure:
  • This tenure for this RD scheme would consist of two parts — Investment phase and Payout phase.

  • The payout (repayment) phase will be for at least 2 years and in the multiples of 12 months.
  • Once the deposit tenure along with the tenures for Investment phase and Payout phase are specified, it cannot be changed.
• Rate of interest:
  • The booked interest rate will be applicable for both the Investment phase and the Payout phase.
  • The rate of interest will be applicable as per the total tenure, including both Investment (RD) and Payout (FD) phase.
  • Interest earned on the Deposit during tenure will be subject to Tax Deducted at Source (TDS).
• Partial withdrawal: Not allowed in both the phases.
• Premature Closure: Allowed during both phases. However, applicable premature withdrawal penalty will be applicable.

The only difference is that under this scheme, on completion of the investment deposit phase, the bank will pay 30% of the entire maturity proceeds upfront and the balance amount will be reinvested in an FD with monthly Payout option for the Payout period. The monthly payouts will be credited to the Savings Account of the depositor.
