The bank has said that the existing account holders who have selected the option of auto-renewal for their FDs on maturity, their FDs will be renewed for the fixed period. Pre-fixed interest rate will be applicable on this.

The bank has said that more than Rs 10 lakh deposited in FD will be renewed under a separate FD at the time of maturity. PNB’s easy FD scheme is popular because there is no penalty for premature withdrawal. Earlier, the minimum limit for deposit in this scheme of the bank was Rs 10,000. The maximum deposit limit was Rs 10 crore. After the change in the rules of the scheme, only premature withdrawal up to Rs 10 lakh will be exempted from penalty.
