Terms and Conditions of Term Deposit

General Definition

A term deposit account is a type of fixed-term investment avenue. Customers can use this account to deposit money into a financial institution, such as a bank, and earn interest on their deposits. This type of investment typically comes with a fixed maturity date, ranging from seven days to 10 years, and the interest rate earned depends on the chosen investment term or tenure. Depending on the type of term deposit, customers may choose to receive the interest payments periodically or at the end of the investment term.

Insurance Cover for Deposits

All bank deposits are covered under the insurance scheme offered by the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation of India (DICGC), subject to certain limits and conditions. The details of the insurance cover in force will be made available to the depositor.

The DICGC insures all deposits such as savings, fixed, current, recurring, etc., except for the following types of deposits:

• • Deposits of foreign Governments
• • Deposits of Central/State Governments
• • Inter-bank deposits
• • Deposits of the State Land Development Banks with the State co-operative bank
• • Any amount due on account of and deposit received outside India
• • Any amount, which has been specifically exempted by the corporation with the previous approval of Reserve Bank of India

Each depositor in a bank is insured up to a maximum of Rs. 5,00,000 (Rupees Five Lakh) for both principal and interest amounts held by them in the same right and same capacity.

The deposits kept in different branches of a bank are aggregated for the purpose of insurance cover, and a maximum amount up to Rupees Five Lakh is paid. For example, if an individual has an account with a principal amount of Rs. 4,95,000 plus accrued interest of Rs. 4,000, the total amount insured by the DICGC would be Rs. 4,99,000. However, if the principal amount in that account was Rs. 5,00,000, the accrued interest would not be insured, not because it was interest, but because it exceeded the insurance limit. In cases where a customer holds multiple accounts (CASA and TD) and the aggregate amount exceeds Rs. 5,00,000, the customer will still be eligible for the insurance limit.

TDS (Tax Deducted at Source)

Interest earned on Term Deposits is subject to TDS as per the prevailing income tax laws. The bank will deduct TDS at the applicable rates if the interest income exceeds the threshold limit specified by the Income Tax Department.

• • As per section 194A of the Income Tax Act, 1961, interest, other than interest on securities, shall be liable to tax deduction at source (‘TDS’) at the applicable rate if the projected interest exceeds the prescribed limit during the financial year (Please refer the section 194A of the Income Tax Act, 1961, for detailed provisions on tax deduction at source).
• • It shall be mandatory for deductees (customers) to furnish PAN details (of the first holder in case of joint holders) to deductor (Axis Bank Ltd.) failing which tax on interest on deposits held by residents shall be deducted at source at higher rate of 20% instead of normal 10%.
• • Where PAN provided to the deductor is invalid or does not belong to the customer, it will be ignored, and the higher rate of TDS (20%) shall be applicable.
• • Similarly, TDS will be deducted at higher rates for Inoperative PANs, i.e. PANs not linked to Aadhaar in terms of section 139AA of the Income Tax Act. The tax shall be deducted at higher of (a) the rate specified in the Income tax Act/ rate or rates in force (b) at the rate of 20%.
• • In order to avail proper credit for the TDS while filing your income tax returns, you are requested to contact your branch and provide your PAN details immediately.
• • Deposit amount exceeding INR 50,000 or aggregated value of all outstanding FDs/RDs booked in same customer id during the Financial Year exceeds INR 5 lakhs limit then PAN or Form 60 is mandatory.
• • If customer is non-ITR filer i.e specified person as per Income tax portal TDS will be deducted @ 20%.
• • As Per Section 139A(5A) of IT Act, every person receiving any sum of income or amount from which tax has been deducted under the provisions of IT Act shall provide his PAN to the person responsible for deducting such tax. In case PAN is not provided as required, the bank shall not be liable for non-availing of the credit of Tax deducted at Source and non-issuance of TDS certificate.
• • As per CBDT circular F.No.275/66/2007-IT (B) - CIRCULAR NO- 03/2010, tax shall be deducted at source on accrual of interest at the end of financial year or at periodic intervals as per practice of the bank or as per the depositors / payees requirement or on maturity or on encashment of time deposits; whichever event takes place earlier. Upto to the extent of shortfall of TDS deducted on accrued interest, a lien shall be placed on the said deposit. The lien amount shall be recovered in the subsequent interest payout cycle or part/pre closure of the deposit amount, whichever is earlier.

Form 15G/H

Customers who are eligible to submit Form 15G (for individuals below 60 years) or Form 15H (for senior citizens) can do so to avoid TDS on their interest income, provided their total income is below the taxable limit.

• • If you are tax resident in India and eligible for TDS exemption (not being a company or firm) from interest on fixed deposits under section 197A (1A) of the income tax Act, you can visit your branch and submit declaration in Form 15G/H duly signed in duplicate.
• • Customer can also submit their Form 15 G/H through digital modes like IB or MB
• • There is no requirement to file separate Form 15 G/H for each FD/RD onboarding. Only 1 form 15 G/H is acceptable against one CIF id during a financial year.
• • Form 15 G/H would become effective from the date of its submission. Any TDS deducted prior to the form submission date or in case already remitted to Govt. treasury, as the case may be; would not be eligible for refund.
• • Senior Citizen customers, 60 years and above can submit declaration on Form 15H duly signed in duplicate, subject to eligibility under section 197A(1C) of the Income Tax Act, for non- deduction of TDS from interest on term deposits (Senior Citizen rates are not applicable for NRI Customers).
• • If your interest income (paid or credited) on fixed deposits by all branches of the bank exceeds the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax as provided u/s 197A(1B), TDS will be deducted even if you have submitted Form 15G / 15H.
• • A fresh declaration in Form 15G/15H, both for non-cumulative and cumulative fixed deposits, is required to be submitted at the start of each financial year. (Not applicable for NRI Customers).
• • Declaration in Form 15G/H shall be invalid unless correct PAN (of the first holder in case of joint holders) is furnished in the declaration.

Interest Payment

Interest on Term Deposits is paid at the agreed rate and frequency. The interest payment options include:

• • Monthly Payout
• • Quarterly Payout
• • Cumulative (interest is compounded and paid at maturity)

Type of Term Deposit

1. Fixed Deposit

• • Short Term: Deposits with a tenure ranging from 7 days to less than 6 months. The interest is calculated on Simple Interest basis on calendar quarter and TDS will get deducted on maturity.


• • Monthly Payout: Interest is paid on the monthly anniversary. The payout of interest for the Monthly Interest scheme is applied on a simple interest basis. TDS will be calculated on the date of payment on the anniversary month, at the end of Financial Year on accrued interest, and at maturity.
  
  For monthly interest scheme codes, interest calculation is done at a discounted rate. Interest is calculated from the start date of the FD to the next month's anniversary date using the formula: (Principal * ROI%) / 12
  
  For FDs with a monthly interest payout option, the interest is paid to the customer at monthly intervals prior to the maturity of the deposit. As the interest is disbursed in advance and is not subject to compounding, a discounted interest rate is applied on the contracted annual rate to reflect the time value of money.
  
  The discounted rate is computed using the formula:
  
  Reduction factor = ((1+ROI/12)^0)+((1+ROI/12)^1)+((1+ROI/12)^2)
  
  Disc period (number of months in quarter for compounding) = 3
  
  Discounted monthly applicable ROI = ROI* Disc period/Reduction factor
  
  For example, if the ROI for a cumulative FD is 7.20%, the applicable monthly payout rate would be calculated as below.
  
  Reduction factor = ((1+7.20%/12)^0)+((1+7.20%/12)^1)+((1+7.20%/12)^2) = 3.018036
  
  Disc period (number of months in quarter for compounding) = 3
  
  Discounted monthly applicable ROI = 7.20%* 3/3.018036
  
  Accordingly, the monthly payout interest will be at a rate of 7.156% instead of 7.20%, accounting for the advance disbursal and absence of compounding.
  
  By selecting the monthly interest payout facility, the customer agrees to the application of this discounted rate. The example provided is for illustrative purposes only, and actual applicable rates may vary based on tenure, prevailing interest rates, and other terms of the deposit.


• • Quarterly Payout: Interest is paid quarterly on calendar quarters. The payout of interest for the Quarterly Interest scheme is applied on a simple interest basis. TDS will be calculated on the date of interest payment on the calendar quarter, and at maturity.
  
  For quarterly interest payout scheme codes, interest calculation is done as follows:
  
  First Broken Period: Interest is calculated using the formula: (Principal * ROI% / 12)* (number of days/month base {30/31}).
  
  Completed Calendar Quarter: Interest is calculated using the formula: (Principal * No of months of calendar quarter i.e. 3 * ROI%) / 12.
  
  Remaining Broken Periods at Maturity: Interest is calculated using the formula: (Principal * number of days * ROI%) / 365.


• • Re-investment (Cumulative): Interest is compounded anniversary quarter and paid at maturity. TDS will be calculated on the calendar quarter, and at maturity.
  
  For reinvestment scheme codes, interest calculation is done as follows:
  
  Broken Period Calculation: Interest is first calculated for the broken period up to the nearest calendar quarter using the formula: (Principal * ROI% / 12)*(number of days/month base {30/31}) and (Principal * No of months* ROI%) / 12. TDS calculation is done on applied interest on calendar quarter and on maturity,
  
  On Anniversary Quarter: Interest is then calculated until the anniversary quarter day using the same formula: (Principal * ROI% / 12)*(no of days/month base{30/31})+(Principal * No of months * ROI%/12).
  
  Ongoing Calculation: This method is followed until maturity, ensuring consistency in interest calculation.
  
  Final Broken Period: For the broken periods in the final flow, interest is calculated based on the number of broken days using the formula: (Principal * number of days * ROI%) / 365.
  
  For all new Reinvestment Term Deposits to be opened on and after 1st August, 2013 and all Reinvestment Term Deposits that may be renewed on and after 1st August 2013, interest reinvested would be net of TDS and hence the maturity amount for reinvestment deposits would vary to the extent of tax and compounding effect on tax for the period subsequent of deduction till maturity.
  
  Fixed Deposits which are booked/renewed on or after 18th Aug 25, revised interest calculation method shall be applicable, For more details, please visit - axis.bank.in/changeint
