Important Notes

● No interest will be paid if the FCNR Deposit is prematurely withdrawn within 1 year of deposit creation.

● In case of premature withdrawal including partial premature withdrawal(s), interest shall be paid at the rate prevailing on the date of deposit for the period for which the deposit has remained with the Bank or at the contracted rate, whichever is lower. There is no premature withdrawal penalty charged. For FCNR Plus deposits, the minimum lock in period is 1 year. Premature withdrawals will be permitted only post the completion of this lock in period. 

● In case of FCNR (B) deposits, calendar year is taken to consist of 360 days irrespective of whether it is a leap year. 

● Terms and conditions applicable to such deposits shall be as per the guidelines prescribed by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) from time to time.
