There is a need for balance while making investment. No doubt the return is more in mutual funds / stocks but there is huge risk in stocks as well in mutual funds.
Mutual funds are long term.
FD has no risk so major amount should be fds rest can be in stock or mutual funds.

My funda is invest in stocknor mutual funds for the amount you can take risk only and if anything happens - you don't get bankrupt....

please educate, why prefer FD over Stocks or Bonds If horizon is 600+ days

You need to have a horizon of over 3 - 5 - 7 years for mutual funds. Long term in MF is not anything below 12+ years...

Problem is, all the amateurs who entered MF investing have seen returns after March'20 and think that it is easy to get 100% reruns in 1-2 years in MF. All stock market related investment runs on business cycles which is typically 3-5 years. That might be a hit (upturn after 3rd year) or a miss (take it to next 5th/6th year). With small cap funds, the turn around time is 6 years.

With thematic funds, the point of exit matters.. the darling of all MFs,- tech funds, under-performed broader markets for 7 years before turning positive coz of WFH from April '20 - Dec ' 21 and now have fallen 40-50% in a span of just 9 months.

Moreover, MFs are not for senior citizens till you are sitting on a pile of cash & don't require it for the next 7 years or so. In that case also, balanced advantage funds or aggressive hybrid funds are the way to go. It typically takes 2-3 years for a MF theme or a fund manager theme to play out.

Us federal Reserve is going to increase another 0.75% in the nov.. Rbi will follow another atleast 0.5% ( 50 bps) in the next meeting in nov. 

That said can bank 1 year fd for senior @ 7% is not bad ( for a quasi govt  bank IDBI also of late offering above 6.6© for senior. 

Right now iam on waiting mode in short term deposit till dec. 

Karnataka bank 7 day fd @ 5.25%

Karur vsya bank 31 day fd @ 5.3%

Indusind 31 [email protected] 4.75% /7 day at 4.25%

DCB bank 14 days at 5.25%

RBL bank 15 days at 4.25%

2023 full year interest rate may slowly inch up & or will be on  hold ( same) no reduction till Inflation drops to 2-4% ( right now govt fake statistics is 7-8% . Real inflation is around 15-20%) 

So canara 366 days fd will be on my short list by end nov/ end dec. ( minimum 5 lakh)

Banks will take few weeks to reflect this change. But I agree with your thoughts. Also, it is 7.5 currently for senior citizens.

try overnight fund giving currently 5.7% after recent repo rate hike ( only if u understand bond funds ) 

pros of overnight fund over short-term fd ( less than 1yr ) 

1. liquid can redeem anytime 
2. current yield is around 5.9% similar to repo rate so expect 5.7%+ return for next 2month and then it'll increase automatically with rbi repo rate hike 
3. nearly no risk

I also park funds short term in high Interest sb ( no tds) in the following banks. All for balances above 1 lakh rs) 

AU ( 5% MONTHLY payable SB INTEREST) ( 6% above ₹ 10 lakh) 

BANDHAN (6% QUARTERLY) 

RBL (5.5% QUARTERLY) 

DCB (5.5% QUARTERLY) 

EQUITAS (6% UP TO 5 LAKHS, 7% FOR BALANCE ABOVE 5 LAKHS)

I know about repo rate linked fd from yes bank & DBS( treasure). I don't trust funds that much. I do have zerodha brokerage.

In my bank system I keep only 7 lakh fd in any single bank so that fd interest is just below tds threshold of 50000 for senior citizen in any tax year. 

But that said, you have any good experience with any overnight fund? Do mention name Or link, I will explore! 

If you give withdrawal request to overnight fund,how many working days it takes to credit to your sb?

Every financial instrument has some risks associated with it. Some have volatility issues, some have liquidity issues, some have not being able outperform the inflation issues....

Please check the NPA/GPA ratio post covid. 


Before covid it was about 1-2% GPA and 0.5% NPA 

It increased to 8-10% GPA and 2-3% NPA

I know that i also know how they gave loan to same people who didn't gave back previous loan joy (fun fact it's legal)

So I'm not putting everything in bandhan but i also think rbi will/forced to save bandhan like yes bank
