Premature withdrawal penalty

As stated on the Utkarsh Small Finance Bank website, if you withdraw your fixed deposit early, there’s a 1% penalty. This penalty doesn’t apply if you close the deposit within seven days. The 1% is deducted from the current rate for the period your deposit was with the bank, or from the agreed-upon rate, whichever is lower.

Deposit insurance

Deposits in small finance banks are insured by the Deposit Insurance and Credit Guarantee Corporation (DICGC) for up to Rs 5 lakh. This means that if the bank faces financial trouble, your deposit is protected up to this limit.
