PNB Recurring Deposit Scheme
The PNB Recurring Deposit Scheme (RD) is a savings plan offered by Punjab National Bank (PNB) that helps you cultivate a habit of saving money regularly. It's ideal for those who want to build a corpus gradually by depositing a fixed amount each month. Throughout the tenure, you earn interest on the deposited amount. The interest rate offered by PNB varies depending on the deposit term and your account type (regular citizen, senior citizen, etc.). At maturity (when the deposit term ends), you receive the entire principal amount you deposited along with the accumulated interest.
