Saving money regularly can be challenging, especially if you can't invest a lump sum upfront. That’s where a Recurring Deposit (RD) comes in handy. It allows you to save a fixed amount every month, earn interest, and grow your savings steadily. As your income increases, you can also boost your monthly contribution for faster growth.


To promote disciplined saving, the State Bank of India (SBI) introduced the Har Gar Lakhpati RD scheme . The idea is simple - invest a set amount monthly and receive Rs 1 lakh or its multiples at the end of your chosen tenure.

Here’s how much general and senior citizens need to deposit each month to build a corpus of Rs 8.25 lakh over 3, 4, or 5 years. (Note: SBI offers maturity amounts in multiples of Rs 1 lakh.)
