Shriram Transport Finance has come out with a fixed deposit (FD) scheme, and here are some details about their offer.
The Shriram Transport FD can be taken out for tenures of 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months, and investors can either opt for cumulative or non – cumulative deposits. The minimum investment is Rs.10,000 and multiples of Rs.1000 after that.
Here is the quarterly per annum interest rate for the different durations on the Shiram Transport Finance FD.
| Tenure | Interest Rate |
| 12 | 8.00% |
| 24 | 8.50% |
| 36 | 9.00% |
| 48 | 9.00% |
| 60 | 9.00% |
As I look at the bank interest rates page to check out the current interest rate given out by banks in India, I see that most banks are paying 6.25% or 6.50% for 1 year, and up to 7.50% for 5 years, so this is clearly higher than what banks pay. The reason for that is the credit of Shriram Transport Finance is not as good as the major Indian banks, that is the reason they pay extra for raising money through a FD. In fact, Business Line said that investors with a high risk appetite should consider a FD from Shriram Transport Finance. This was back in June 2009, and the interest rates offered were higher still.
For whatever it’s worth, Fitch has assigned a tAA (investment grade) rating to this offering. Here is a link to the application form, if you are interested in this FD. You can also invest through your broker like ICICI Direct.

Hi,
I wish you could tell me which stock investing broker you use? and charting software if any?
any favourite websites/magazine/news letter you subscribe?
I use ICICI Direct because that’s the one I started out with. I never did an analysis to see if that was the cheapest or not, but I started with that a few years ago, and since it is fairly easy to use and I don’t trade that much, so I stuck with that.
I don’t do any charting, outside of maybe looking at data from NSE’s website in a excel sheet every once in a while. I read a fair bit, and regularly go through the Economist, Business Standard, Business India, and maybe I will write a more detailed post on what I read a little later today.
thanks..
I was looking for some cut above research tools 😀
Sorry to disappoint you….but I don’t use anything out of the ordinary at all 🙂

A lot of tax free bonds have come up in the past few days and are expected to come up in the next few days as well. Those will give you a higher post tax yield than these bonds. You can talk to your fin adviser or agent to look at some of those options.
