Here is a list of them along with their benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Savings_Account\"><\/span><b>Savings Account<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A savings account is the most common and basic type of bank account available in India. This is a standard account where you can save money while earning a yearly interest. You also get a wide range of services like debit cards, internet banking, and online bill payments. Some of the benefits of a savings account are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Yearly Interest:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A savings account earns you yearly interest. Many banks offer higher rates of interest to attract more customers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ensures Safety:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> One of the biggest benefits of a savings account is that the bank does not invest your money, but still grants you interest. Thus, your money will be safe.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Risk-free Account:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A savings account is not only risk-free, but it is also the cheapest method of investing your money.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Various Subcategories:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Banks offer regular savings accounts, senior citizen savings accounts, and savings accounts for children among others.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Current_Account\"><\/span><b>Current Account<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A current account is used mainly by business owners and corporations. Banks do not pay any interest on this type of account. There is no limit to the maximum amount of money you can hold in this account. Some benefits of a current account include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Easy Withdrawal:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The money invested in a current account may be withdrawn at any time, facilitating liquidity.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Overdraft Facility:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Current account holders get an overdraft facility from the bank. This means that they can withdraw more than the balance they have in their bank.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Monthly Cheque Balance:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Current account holders also get a monthly cheque balance as one of their benefits.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Minimum Account Balance:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> To operate a current account, you need to maintain the minimum account balance mandated by your bank.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Salary_Account\"><\/span><b>Salary Account<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A salary account is one where your employer will credit your monthly salary. An employer generally opens this account for their employees. The various benefits of a salary account are:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Zero Balance Account:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Salary accounts are zero balance accounts, as long as money is credited every month. This ensures peace of mind as you do not have to worry about maintaining the minimum balance.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Access to Loans:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Banks offer a wide variety of loans to their salary account holders.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Investing Opportunity:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> As a salary account holder, you will be able to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.torusdigital.com\/mutual-funds\"><strong>invest in mutual funds<\/strong><\/a>, government bonds, and other related securities easily.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Additional Benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> With a salary account you can enjoy higher transaction limits, lower loan interest rates, and special offers.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Recurring_Deposit_Account\"><\/span><b>Recurring Deposit Account<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a type of bank account where you have the flexibility to invest a fixed sum each month. You need to invest a small amount every month or once a quarter to earn interest. Some of the benefits of an RD account are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Frequent Deposits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You can invest small and fixed amounts in an RD, saving you from the hassle of a lump sum deposit.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Risk-free:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It is strictly risk-free, and the invested money will be safe.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Habit of Saving:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Recurring deposit accounts encourage customers to develop the habit of saving.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Mature Withdrawal:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Once it reaches maturity you can easily withdraw the amount.

The only catch is that you have to lock your investment till the period of maturity. However, you can withdraw the amount by paying a premature withdrawal penalty. Some of the benefits of an FD account are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Fixed Interest Rate:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You get a fixed interest rate on your investment. The interest rate for a fixed deposit account tends to be higher than their savings account counterparts.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Loan Facility:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You can avail loan against your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.torusdigital.com\/accounts\/fixed-deposit\"><strong>fixed deposit account<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Minimum Lower Limit:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You can start a fixed deposit account for an amount as low as \u20b95,000.
