How to read this page
- Tenures are the bank's own words. “1 Year to 443 days” is printed exactly as ESAF Small Finance Bank prints it. We never convert a band into a day count or a midpoint — that would be a number the bank never published.
- One card, one w.e.f. When a product is live under several “with effect from” dates, each gets its own card. We do not merge them into a table the bank never issued.
- Every card links to its source. The product's own page where we have it, otherwise the bank's FD rate page, otherwise the bank's website. Aggregator sites are never a source.
- Only approved, current rows appear. 121 rows on this page are published and un-superseded. Rows awaiting verification, and rows a later rate card replaced, are not shown.
MyPassbook is read-only and never touches your money. Rates change without notice — always confirm on the bank's own page before you book. Deposits with scheduled commercial banks in India are insured by DICGC up to ₹5,00,000 per depositor per bank.
