What is an overdraft facility against FD?
According to ICICI Bank website as of March 1, 2025, overdraft on FD is a facility where you can get a credit limit based on the FD amount. For example if the FD is worth Rs 5 lakh and the bank is offering up to 70% overdraft facility then you can get up to Rs 3.5 lakh credit limit. “The overdraft facility gets renewed when the fixed deposit is renewed. So you don’t have to go through the documentation process again to avail of an overdraft facility,” said ICICI Bank.
Things to know before using an overdraft facility against FD
According to ICICI Bank website here are some important things to know about overdraft facility against FD:
- Check Interest Rates: When considering an OD facility against an FD, it is vital to check the interest rates charged. These are charged against your FD return rate, so make sure you know the same before applying for an OD.
- Check for Fees: Make sure to check for any fees associated with the OD facility, such as processing or renewal fees. This will help you determine the facility’s total cost and avoid surprises. What’s more, ICICI Bank won’t charge any processing/renewal fee, so you don’t need to worry.
- Consider Loan Amount: Evaluate the loan amount needed and whether the OD facility can provide the required amount. If the amount needed exceeds the OD limit, it may be a good idea to consider other options..
- Manageable Repayment Terms: Ensure that the repayment terms of the OD facility are manageable and you can repay them easily. This way, you can avoid penalties on your FD returns. Having a repayment plan beforehand is always a good idea.
