ICICI Home Finance Fixed Deposits is a FD scheme run by a subsidiary of ICICI Bank called the ICICI Home Finance Company Limited. So, this is not a fixed deposit by the bank itself, but one offered by its subsidiary.
Here are some things about ICICI Home Finance fixed deposit that will help you evaluate if this is meant for you or not.
- Maturity period: There are plans with several maturity periods that range between 1 and 7 years.
- Interest Rates: Here are some tables that break it up according to scheme types and maturity periods. These are rates that I saw on November 7, 2009. Please check with the bank or through your online broker to see the prevailing interest rates and make sure you use the most current.

4. Minimum Amount: Minimum amount ranges from Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 40,000, based on the scheme you apply for.
5. Credit Rating: ICICI Home Finance has a credit rating of AAA from CARE for its fixed deposits. This rating indicates that CARE considers it of the best quality offering highest safety for timely servicing and debt obligation.
6. Premature Withdrawal: If you break your ICICI Home Finance FD before the maturity period, there will be some penalty. This will be calculated as follows:
Timing | Penalty |
Between 3 and 6 months | No interest will be payable |
Between 6 and 12 months | 3% lower than the minimum rate at which public deposits are accepted by ICICI HFC |
After 12 months, but before maturity | 2% lower than the rate applicable for the completed tenure of deposits |
7. ECS Facility: The scheme allows payment of interest through the Electronic Clearing System (ECS) facility in locations where the scheme is available. This is a useful thing to have and you should check if you can avail it where you live or not. If you don’t use the ECS facility, then you will be paid through a cheque or demand draft. These days banks charge for depositing outstation cheques, so you could potentially be charged that.
8. TDS: Tax will be deducted at source according to the applicable rules at the time.
These were some factors to consider if you plan to invest in the ICICI Home Finance Fixed Deposit scheme. I prepared a comparison of fixed deposit rates back in July 2009, and you might be interested in taking a look at that also.
