1. You are considering investment for senior citizens
2. Tax saving FDs - so 5 year lock in.
Tax saving FD is better if the senior citizen is paying income tax (ie. there is some taxable income) or not placing the Form 15 G/H annually with the bank to save TDS.
If 5 year lock in is fine for the investor, then using the senior citizen scheme + a recurring deposit (for the interest from the scheme) with SBI will give a return of 8% after 5 years.
