Why 444 days FD?

The 444 days is a specific, fixed tenure chosen by banks for special Fixed Deposit schemes. For example, SBI introduced the "Amrit Vrishti" FD scheme with a fixed tenure of 444 days for term deposits below 3 crore, offering revised, higher interest rates for general and senior citizens. Similarly, Indian Bank offers a 444 days FD scheme with special interest rates. This fixed duration is part of a special offering to attract depositors.
