New Delhi: Bank FD rates for 5-year fixed deposits vary between banks. However, lately lenders have started to offer higher returns on long-term FDs to raise money from retail customers. Generally, longer deposit tenures yield higher interest rates. For example, short-term fixed deposits (up to six months) typically offer interest rates between 3 per cent and 4.5 per cent per annum.
