The Problem

Every new product category costs crores and years to build.

India’s financial institutions are fragmented across product silos. Each liability or treasury category — NRI FDs, FCNR(B), GIFT City bonds — requires its own compliance stack, regulatory approval, and technical infrastructure.

Only the largest banks can afford to participate. 1,500+ SFBs, NBFCs, and fintechs are permanently locked out — not by capability, but by infrastructure cost.

🧱

Siloed Infrastructure

Each product category needs its own rails, compliance, and vendor relationships. There is no shared layer.

⚖️

Multi-Regulator Maze

RBI, FEMA, IFSCA each govern different verticals. Managing all simultaneously is beyond most institutions.

💸

Prohibitive Build Cost

SWIFT, NOSTRO, forex desks — the fixed cost of a single new product category runs crores and years.

🚫

Permanent Exclusion

Without shared infrastructure, smaller institutions can never reach parity in high-margin categories.

The Platform

One OS. Every Liability & Treasury Category. Built once, extended forever.

Bharatomni’s Financial Operating System provides shared infrastructure for product issuance, compliance, payments, and distribution. Activate a product. Launch fast. The rails are already built.

We are the grid.
You bring the appliances.

No institution generates its own electricity. They plug into the grid — and the grid handles generation, transmission, compliance, and safety. Bharatomni is that grid for financial products.

FCNR(B) & GIFT City Fixed Deposits — Bharatomni’s first product launch.

India has four government-recognised fixed deposit products built exclusively for NRIs — each with compelling returns, tax advantages, and full repatriation rights. Your customers want them. Bharatomni gives you the infrastructure to offer them — under your brand, in weeks. Here’s exactly what’s available and why NRIs choose each one.

What it is

NRE (Non-Resident External) FDs allow NRIs to park their foreign earnings in India in INR. Both principal and interest are fully repatriable. Interest is completely exempt from Indian income tax — making this the go-to product for NRIs who want high INR returns without any tax friction.

  • Tax-free interest in India — Section 10(4)(i) of the Income Tax Act
  • Principal + interest fully repatriable — no RBI approval needed
  • Minimum tenure: 1 year. Maximum: 10 years
  • Auto-renewal available; no TDS deducted at source
  • Funding: inward foreign remittance or transfer from NRE account

Indicative Rates (INR, <₹2 Cr)

SBI (1–2 yr)6.80% p.a.
HDFC Bank (1–2 yr)7.00% p.a.
ICICI Bank (1–2 yr)6.90% p.a.
IndusInd Bank (3 yr)7.60% p.a.
Private Bank (5 yr)8.50% p.a.

Rates indicative. Subject to change. Source: Bank websites, H1 2025.

Note: NRE FDs are INR-denominated — NRI bears exchange rate risk. If the rupee depreciates, effective returns in USD/GBP terms are lower. Best suited for NRIs planning to return to India or with INR-denominated liabilities.

What it is

NRO (Non-Resident Ordinary) FDs are used to invest Indian-source income — rent from property, dividends, pension, or any income earned in India. Denominated in INR. Interest is taxable at 30% TDS, but repatriation of up to USD 1 million per financial year is permitted with appropriate documentation.

  • Accepts INR income from Indian sources (rent, dividends, pension)
  • Repatriation up to USD 1 million/year via Form 15CA/CB
  • Tenures from 7 days to 10 years
  • DTAA benefits available — reduces effective TDS for many NRIs
  • Can be jointly held with resident Indians

Indicative Rates (INR, <₹2 Cr)

SBI (2–3 yr)6.60% p.a.
HDFC Bank (1–2 yr)7.00% p.a.
ICICI Bank (1–2 yr)6.90% p.a.
IndusInd Bank (3 yr)7.40% p.a.

Rates indicative. Subject to change. Source: Bank websites, H1 2025.

Note: Interest earned on NRO FDs is subject to 30% TDS (plus surcharge and cess). NRIs from DTAA countries can apply for lower withholding rates with a Tax Residency Certificate. Repatriation requires tax documentation.

What it is

FCNR(B) (Foreign Currency Non-Resident Bank) deposits are the only NRI fixed deposit held entirely in foreign currency — USD, GBP, EUR, AUD, CAD, or JPY. No INR conversion means zero exchange rate risk. Interest and principal are fully tax-free in India and fully repatriable. The ideal product for NRIs who want India’s superior rates without rupee exposure.

  • Zero currency risk — principal and interest stay in your foreign currency
  • Tax-free in India — Section 10(4)(ii) of the Income Tax Act
  • Fully repatriable with no RBI approval or documentation needed
  • Tenures: 1 to 5 years. Available in 6 currencies
  • Loan against FCNR deposit available (ODFD facility)
  • 70–90% renewal rate — highly sticky once opened

Indicative Rates — USD

1 year4.50–5.00% p.a.
2 years4.75–5.10% p.a.
3 years4.90–5.25% p.a.
5 years4.50–4.90% p.a.

Rates vary by bank. Based on RBI guidelines and SOFR-linked benchmarks. H1 2025.

Best for: NRIs in the US, UK, EU, Australia, Canada, Japan who want to earn more on their savings without taking any exchange rate risk. Particularly compelling vs. 0.01% Chase savings or 1.66% Barclays — same currency, 3–5× the return, tax-free.

What it is

GIFT City IFSC FDs are term deposits issued by IBU (IFSC Banking Unit) branches of Scheduled Commercial Banks operating within India’s International Financial Services Centre in Gandhinagar. Regulated by IFSCA rather than RBI. USD-denominated. A distinct legal and regulatory product from FCNR(B), suited to NRIs who want an IFSC-domiciled instrument.

  • IFSCA-regulated — India’s international finance hub at GIFT City
  • USD-denominated, fully repatriable
  • Available from IBUs of SBI, HDFC, ICICI, Axis, Federal Bank and others
  • Tax-free interest under the IFSC framework
  • Complements FCNR(B) for diversified NRI portfolio construction

Indicative Rates — USD (SBI IBU, w.e.f. Mar 2026)

7 days – 1 month3.50% p.a.
1–6 months3.90–4.00% p.a.
6–12 months4.00% p.a.
1–5 years3.65–4.25% p.a.

Source: SBI GIFT City IBU rate sheet, 09.03.2026. Rates vary by bank.

Note: GIFT City FD rates are currently lower than FCNR(B) for the same USD tenor. The product’s differentiation is its IFSC regulatory domicile — relevant for institutional clients, global custodians, and NRIs seeking IFSCA-regulated instruments specifically.
