New Delhi: Many investors prefer to invest in Fixed Deposit (FD) for fixed returns. Perhaps this is the reason why the number of investors in it is very high. On the other hand, there is no risk in it.
Once you invest, you get fixed returns. However, investing in FD gives less returns than many other schemes. But from time to time banks keep bringing such FD schemes which give good returns to investors. Union Bank of India has one such special scheme. On this FD scheme of 333 days, the bank is giving tremendous returns to the investors. The name of this scheme is Union Sumvriddhi Deposit Scheme.
