07 March 2024 Obtain duplicate FD receipt and encash it.
In most cases, you will need to visit the branch in person to initiate the process of obtaining a duplicate FD certificate receipt. Schedule a visit to the branch where you opened the FD account and bring along any identification documents and account-related information that may be required.
