Wondering what documents you require to get started? Tax-saving FDs are a prudent investment option, offering both tax benefits and safety. But before you can start growing your savings, knowing what paperwork is required to open one is crucial. Explored here are the process and documents for tax-saving fixed deposits.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>1)\u202fMobile Number Registration <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step in opening your\u202ftax-saving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indusind.bank.in\/in\/en\/personal\/deposits\/fixed-deposit.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fixed deposit\u202faccount<\/a> is registering with your mobile number. This step is essential as it permits you to get crucial notifications and updates about your FD.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your mobile number acts as a fundamental point of contact and allows you to easily manage your FD online, from tracking the progress of your FD to receiving timely reminders about maturity dates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>2)\u202fKYC Documents <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To proceed with opening a tax-saving FD, you are required to submit your KYC (Know Your Customer) documents. The basic documents required are your Aadhaar and PAN cards. These documents for FD creation are mandatory as they authenticate your identity and ensure that your bank account complies with regulatory and legal standards.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PAN can assist in tracking your tax-saving investments, while Aadhaar ensures your identity is linked securely to your financial transactions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>3)\u202fPrincipal Amount <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your identity is authenticated, the next step is to enter the principal component you wish to deposit in your tax-saving FD. This is the amount that will be locked in the FD account, growing with a predefined interest rate over the tenure.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you are an existing or new customer, selecting the correct amount is crucial as it will determine your earnings. To make better decisions regarding your savings, you can use an online <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indusind.bank.in\/in\/en\/personal\/calculators\/fixed-deposit-calculator.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FD calculator<\/a> to estimate the returns on your investment.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also important to note that tax-saving FDs come with a fixed tenure of five years. This is the lock-in period, and you cannot liquidate your FD before the five years are complete.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>4)\u202fVideo KYC <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you open an online tax-saving FD with IndusInd Bank, you can benefit from a 100% account opening process. The KYC process is completed through a secure video call and is a quick way to authenticate your identity without the need to visit a branch. All you need is a stable internet network and a device with a camera. This step ensures your account is completely compliant and it adds a security layer by confirming your identity in real time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>5)\u202fAccount Confirmation <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After you have submitted all the required documents and completed the video KYC, the Bank will authenticate your details. Once everything is in place, you will get confirmation of your new FD account.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This confirmation is sent through SMS or email, and it marks the successful opening of your tax-saving FD. From this point, your funds will begin working for you, earning interest and helping you save on taxes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Eligibility Criteria for Opening an Online Fixed Deposit <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before opening an FD account with IndusInd Bank, ensure you meet the listed criteria:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1) Citizenship \u2013 Only Indian citizens are eligible -H3&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2)\u202fAge \u2013 You must be at least 18 years old -H3&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3)\u202fKYC documents \u2013 You need valid KYC documents, namely Aadhaar and PAN cards -H3&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Stepwise Process to Book Your FD Instantly with IndusInd Bank <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Web mode, mobile banking, and net banking are three major routes to book your FD instantly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Web Application <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This mode of opening a tax-saving FD is applicable for non-IndusInd Bank customers too&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Steps<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>Details<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Authenticate your Aadhaar &amp; PAN&nbsp;<\/td><td>Ensure your Aadhaar and PAN details are accurate&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fill in personal and FD details&nbsp;<\/td><td>Input the required personal details about the FD you wish to create&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Complete video KYC&nbsp;<\/td><td>Finish the KYC process with a quick video call&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fund your FD&nbsp;<\/td><td>Transfer the deposit amount to your new FD account&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2>&nbsp;<br><strong>IndusMobile App <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This mode is applicable only for existing customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Steps<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>Details<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Login&nbsp;<\/td><td>Use your mobile banking ID to log in and choose the deposit option&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Create fixed deposit&nbsp;<\/td><td>Fill out the FD creation form accurately&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Transfer funds&nbsp;<\/td><td>On successful submission, the amount will be transferred from your savings account&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>IndusNet Banking Portal <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This mode is applicable only for existing customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Steps<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>Details<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Select deposit option&nbsp;<\/td><td>Sign in to your Internet banking account and choose the deposit option&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Open FD&nbsp;<\/td><td>Enter your details in the \u2018Open FD\u2019 section&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fund your FD&nbsp;<\/td><td>Choose the amount from your savings account to be added to your FD&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also Read:\u202f<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indusind.bank.in\/iblogs\/investment\/5-benefits-of-a-tax-saving-fixed-deposit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">5 Benefits of a Tax-saving Fixed Deposit<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Ending Note <\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Opening an IndusInd Bank Tax-Saver FD is not only easy but also beneficial.
