As of October 2026, Doha Bank offers a highest interest rate of 6.85% p.a. for general citizens and 6.85% p.a. for senior citizens on fixed deposits.

Yes, Doha Bank is a registered bank regulated by the RBI. Your deposits (up to ₹5 Lakhs per depositor) are insured by DICGC, which covers both principal and accrued interest.

The minimum tenure for a fixed deposit with Doha Bank starts from 7 Days. Longer tenures may offer higher interest rates.

Yes, Doha Bank offers an additional benefit of up to 0.00% p.a. over the general citizen rate for senior citizens (aged 60 and above).

These rates apply to domestic retail individuals making callable fixed deposits under ₹3 Crore (with premature withdrawal permitted). Deposits of ₹3 Crore and above are classified as bulk deposits and follow separate rate structures.

Yes, interest earned on fixed deposits is taxable as per your income tax slab. TDS is deducted at 10% if total interest exceeds ₹50,000 per year (₹1,00,000 for senior citizens). You can submit Form 121 (which replaced Form 15G/15H from April 2026) to avoid TDS if your total income is below the taxable limit.

Doha Bank charges a flat 1% penalty. Interest is recalculated at the card rate applicable — on the booking date — for the period the deposit actually stayed, or the contracted rate, whichever is lower, and 1% is deducted from that. Deposits closed within 7 days earn no interest.

Yes, Doha Bank currently offers special FD rates on select tenures that are higher than the regular rates. These are typically limited-period offers and subject to change.
