Tax on fixed deposit interest
In Nepal, interest earned on a fixed deposit is subject to a 5% tax deducted at source (TDS) for individuals — the bank withholds it before crediting your interest, so your net return is slightly below the headline rate.
Senior citizens and scheme deposits
Many banks add a margin (often 0.25–1%) on fixed deposits for senior citizens, and some run festival or scheme deposits at higher rates for a limited window. Confirm the current figure at the branch.
