Fixed Deposit Receipts (FDRs) have emerged as a cornerstone for reliable investment strategies. These are official documents issued by banks or financial institutions when customers open fixed deposit accounts. The FDR contains essential details such as the principal amount deposited, the interest rate applicable, the tenure of the deposit, and the maturity date. This document serves as legal proof of ownership and is crucial for various transactions related to the deposit.
