SBI FD Rates: The Reserve Bank of India has recently increased the non-callable FD deposit limit from Rs 15 lakh to Rs 1 crore. Banks generally offer higher interest rates on non-callable FDs because your money remains locked-in for a fixed period.

Note that premature payment is not allowed under such schemes. State Bank of India (SBI) offers the best non-callable FDs with high interest rates. Let us know what is its minimum payout amount.
