Any deposit which is not repayable on demand is called a time deposit. Time deposits are repayable after specified period of time. Time deposits may be classified as fixed deposit and recurring deposit. Under Fixed deposit account certain amount is deposited for fixed period (minimum 45 days or more).

Loan is given to depositor on the security of FDR.
