Apply NowA Recurring Deposit (RD) is an investment product that allows you to earn interest on periodic deposits. Here is how it works:
• You deposit money periodically in an RD
• You can redeem it at the end of the term
• At the time of maturity of an RD, you receive your investment along with the interests earned on it over the period of the scheme.
• As compared to an FD where you invest an amount in lump sum, an RD allows you to invest a fixed sum every month; thus offering more flexibility.
• The interest offered by an RD depends upon whether you are a regular customer or a Senior Citizen, and on the term of your choice
• At Metra Trust, Senior Citizens earn 0.5% higher rate of interest on their RDs than regular customer.

Metra Trust understands that emergencies are part of life. We do not charge any penalty for missing your recurring deposite instalments.
You never know when you might need money. The premature withdrawal facility in RD allows you to withdraw your investments and use them to address any financial situation.
Premature withdrawal of RD is allowed and penalty, if any, is calculated on the rate applicable on the date of the deposit for the period for which the deposit has run or the contracted rate whichever is lower. Metra Trust does not charge any interest on premature withdrawal within 30 days for domestic RDs, NRO (Non-Resident Ordinary) RDs and within 365 days for NRE (Non-Resident External) RDs, respectively.
If you withdraw money after 30 days but before 6 months, the RD account interest rate on the amount will be the fixed deposit card rate applicable for 30-45 days (not applicable for NRE RDs). The card charges applicable for the period the deposit has actually remained with the bank as on the date of booking of the said deposit will apply if the deposit is prematurely withdrawn on or after 6 months.
Metra Trust offers RD accounts for varying periods. It can range from a minimum of 6 months to a maximum of 10 years.
For Metra Trust, the minimum deposit to create an RD account is ₹100.
Metra Trust does not charge any penalty if you miss or delay paying your recurring deposit instalments.
The maturity amount can be calculated using a recurring deposit calculator. Metra Trust’s RD calculator is simple, quick and easy to use. Once you enter the monthly investment amount and the number of months you’re investing it for, it calculates your maturity amount as per the interest rate applicable. Calculate your RD maturity amount here.
If you do not have a large capital but can invest a small sum each month, you may go for a recurring deposit rather than a fixed deposit (FD). Each month, installment is to be deposited in the RD account. At the end of the RD term, the maturity amount will be credited to your account. However, if you can invest a large capital, an FD may be better.
Yes, interest earned on RD is taxable. You must pay tax on the interest you earn, although the percentage depends on the tax bracket you fall into. No tax exemptions can be claimed on an RD.
