Customers receive interest in return from the bank when they deposit their extra money. In India, banks provide a minimum interest of 3.5% and a maximum interest of 8%.

FCNR Deposit Account

 

The full form of FCNR Deposit Account is Foreign Currency Non-Repatriable Account. This account is best suited for NRI (Non-resident Indians) and PIO (Person of Indian Origin).

But, the difference is their money must be generated from an Indian source for NRO Account, and for NRE Account, deposit money must be generated from the external source.
