    Maximum funds one can keep in bank account?

    Yes, you have to consider the cost of living for a family of 3 or 4. No point in looking at the cost of living for a bachelor who for all he cares, can even share a house with friends or stay in a el cheapo PG :Pexpenses aside, I think the basic things like Rent, EMI+gas (for 1 bike+1car), other...

    Maximum funds one can keep in bank account?

    btw, where is @avi ? Counting his hypothetical notes? :P On topic : I don't think there is any upper limit to the amount you'd want to deposit in a bank but the interest from that deposit isn't as significant as you'd think. 7lacs a year is not bad if you want to live a middle class life in a...

    Aadhaar card

    not sure if you're serious! you're being waay tooo paranoid - Congress, BJP, Left, right, behen Mayawati or her dog - it really doesn't matter who comes in to power: our lives on the ground will NOT change. WE will still jump traffic signals and when caught, bribe the cop. WE will still under...

    Rate the Last Movie You Saw...

    Lucia (Kannada movie) - 8/10. Good attempt and a decent concept- didn't think there was a market for such kind of Kannada movies.. For those who don't know about it (and I'm sure there are a lot of people here :p), it's a crowd funded movie: (from wiki) Heard it's being re-made in Telugu...

    The Indian Politics Thread

    I thought MMS said in one of the press conference that he was not in the running for the PM's post (and thus my question earlier) But yeah I think Chidambaram might be in the running but he's not really a "mass leader" and the Congress doesn't have any in their ranks right now anyways...

    The Indian Politics Thread

    Its another myth that AAP doesn't take the populist route. AAP's 700 liter water, reduction in electricity prices is as populist as they come. The other parties (Congress, BJP, SP, BSP, DMK, AIADMK, RJD, BJD, NC, NCP, SS etc etc) all dole out soaps based on caste/in the name of helping the poor...

    Which FD to go for?

    I just checked the HDFC website - they have 8.75 for FD's of 1 year. Abvove 1 year - its 9%. I have a RD and that was 9% for a year and looks like they've updated the rate of interest recently to 8.75%

    Which FD to go for?

    I have a HDFC bank account and they offer 8.75% interest on FD's for a year and above. :@ RD is 9.5% pa. I've no clue why the RD interest rate is higher than the FD's but you should check if that's the case with your ICICI bank as well, in which case, I'd suggest you go for RD account. BTW...

    Let's not go into naming people AAPtard, BJPtard or Congrestard or whatever retarded names we've got out there! (Feku and Pappu are too hilarious to not be used in some instances :P) Anyways, what I think the AAP has done is played this like a smash and grab of some sorts. They 'promised' some...
