What is an Indian Bank Flexi Fixed Deposit?

Flexi Deposit Indian Bank allows automatic transfer of surplus funds into a fixed deposit when your account balance exceeds a set threshold. The excess amount is swept into an FD in multiples of ₹10,000 every Sunday. A reverse sweep pulls funds back to ensure liquidity if the balance falls below the threshold. This way, the Flexi Fixed Deposit is designed for HNIs and Corporate Executives who want better returns without compromising on easy fund access and liquidity.

Difference Between Flexi Fixed Deposits and Regular Fixed Deposits

Here’s a quick comparison table to help you understand the difference between a regular FD and the Flexi Fixed Deposit at Indian Bank:

Indian Bank Flexi Fixed Deposit  Indian Bank Regular Fixed Deposit
Linked to your savings account for automatic sweep-in and reverse sweep Regular fixed deposit not linked to any savings account
Extra funds are auto-transferred into the FD; funds move back when your balance drops Funds remain locked in the fixed deposit until maturity

Key Takeaways

Indian Bank Flexi Fixed Deposit offers interest rates similar to fixed deposits, along with the liquidity of a savings account. It automatically transfers surplus funds from your account into FDs and pulls them back when needed, using a sweep-in and reverse-sweep mechanism. Flexi deposits offer a smart balance of growth and liquidity, making them a practical option for earning higher returns than a regular FD. This ensures your money earns regular FD interest rates without sacrificing access to funds.

FAQs

  • Can a Tax Saving Fixed Deposit be opened as a Flexi FD in Indian Bank?

    No, Tax Saving FDs in Indian Bank have a compulsory 5-year lock-in period and do not allow sweep-in or sweep-out features. Therefore, they cannot be opened or linked as Flexi Fixed Deposits.
  • Are any insurance benefits linked to the Indian Bank Flexi Deposit?

    The Indian Bank Flexi Deposit also comes with added protection benefits. Account holders get a ₹1 lakh life insurance cover if they are between 15 and 45 years old, and IB Student account holders aged 12 to 70 also receive a ₹1 lakh personal accident cover. This inclusion provides an extra layer of security while your funds continue to earn returns.
  • Do I need to close the entire Indian Bank Flexi FD if I need money?

    In the Indian Bank Flexi Fixed Deposit, only the required amount is withdrawn from the fixed deposit. The remaining balance continues to earn interest.
