Axis Bank NRI-Pro Foreign Currency Deposit

Axis NRI-Pro Foreign Currency Deposit links an NRE deposit with a forward cover so the customer can lock an exchange-rate path and receive a foreign-currency outcome at maturity.

First-party evidencePublished researchReviewed September 10, 2026Active
Current rate evidenceAxis does not publish one durable headline yield because the outcome combines the deposit return and the forward/exchange-rate structure; the live transaction quote controls.
Currency / amount / tenureMinimum deposit is ₹5 lakh or equivalent; tenure choices run from 3 months to 5 years under the current product page.
Premature withdrawal / liquidityThe forward contract and deposit structure make this materially different from an ordinary FCNR(B) or NRE FD; liquidity/exit economics must be confirmed at booking.
Deposit-state / funding ruleThis is an NRE deposit linked to a forward-cover product; it is excluded from ordinary FD/FCNR headline-rate rankings because the forward contract is part of the return.

Critical decision facts

Rate, tenure, liquidity and booking conditions belong together.

A headline deposit rate is incomplete without the dated schedule, tenure band, customer category and premature-withdrawal rules.

Exact product-type evidence

Fixed deposit evidence stays in its own structure.

Specialist fields below remain source-scoped. Missing values stay missing; one banking product type is never used to manufacture facts for another.

Rate history

Dated deposit-rate snapshots.

Effective-date evidence is preserved instead of silently replacing an older rate when a bank reprices new deposits.

Observed September 12, 2026
Forward-cover NRE structure; live deposit and FX/forward quote controls, so no synthetic evergreen rate is stored.

Fit & cautions

Who this record appears designed for—and what can break the fit.

Best-fit wording summarizes the published proposition. It is not individualized financial advice or an approval prediction.

Potential fit

NRIs who want an NRE forward-cover structure with foreign-currency maturity exposure and can hold through the selected contract horizon.

Verify before relying
  • Do not compare the quoted outcome directly with an ordinary INR FD rate.
  • Forward-cover economics depend on the transaction date and exchange-rate curve.
  • The product is not the same as holding principal directly in an FCNR(B) deposit.
  • Confirm early-exit/forward-cancellation treatment before booking.
Maintained comparisons

Compare this product only where the pair is deliberately maintained.

Both sides keep independent review dates, exact conditions and first-party evidence. No winner score is generated.

First-party source ledger

Complete evidence set for this maintained profile.

Each source remains independent. A product page, tariff, KFS/MITC, rate schedule or programme document is not silently treated as interchangeable evidence.

Current-use rule

When the bank changes a term after the recorded review, the current agreement, tariff, KFS/MITC or effective rate table controls.
