Bank Account Suggestion

I wanted to know which Bank will be the best to open a savings account as a college student because in that account I'll be depositing my stipends only so maybe the ones with good interest rates will be better. Or Any investment advice will also work.

Thanks😀

Don't go with SBI and CBI. IDK how the fuck they've established their systems. They aren't reliable for UPI payments past 11PM.

Ex-wealth management banker here. Go with ICICI without a second thought. Chanda fucked them so bad, they have improved their risk management divisions. HDFC is another option but right now the company is like a mad bull, any company that does not get funded by ICICI due to risk gets cash from HDFC so it's better to stay away

Hi! Really thanks for this tip and insight! Never knew all of this. Also is it better to get my saving FD or invest in SIP?

Depends on your profile. Since you are a college student right now, save the cash in your bank, turn extra cash into flexi FD while reinvesting your savings into educating yourself. MFs or even stock investments are always done through 'surplus' cash. I expect you to not have any surplus cash after investing in yourself. You can gain skills rather than capital appreciation from your savings at this age.

If your idea for wealth creation is through saving in bank, then you should look at some normie financial advise YouTuber. You'll learn about mf etc

SBI or HDFC imo. Don't expect many offers or high interest rates from a debit card. Look for security, ease of use and acceptability.

IndusInd has been a great experience. The branch near me isn't a nightmare to visit
