Recommendations for Opening a Savings Account: Seeking Convenience, Higher Interest Rate, and Security

[Banking101]

Given that the funds are presently held in an SBI Bank account, I believe that transferring them to another bank might provide more advantages. With that in mind, which savings account would you suggest for opening under my father's name? Please take into account factors such as convenience, a higher interest rate, enhanced security, and the availability of the ASBA facility for his funds.

In order to open a savings account under my father's name, I am considering options that offer convenience, a higher interest rate, and enhanced security for his funds. Which account would you recommend for these requirements?

Small bank's give high interest rates, AFIK
but your money will be safe in big banks like SBI,HDFC,ICICI ETC
you can try auto sweep feature.

Big banks are secure but inconvenient. They make us visit the branch for every single thing.

Stay way from auto sweep unless you are very sure your fund will be idle for a considerable duration. it does more harm than good if you frequently transact

I often invest my money in ipos and drain my account. Auto sweep does not suit me.

You can also check sbi mod scheme if you haven't checked already.

IDFC gives higher interest rate but not sure how secure it is.

Most banks do the same. Are you aware of any bank that provides a higher flat interest rate?

Atleast there is flat rate of 3% +- .
