In the past I have always invested in Bank FDs, but now for the 1st time I am planning to invest around 50K – 1 lac in corporate FDs, due to the higher interest rates offered by them.
I am planning to invest in FDs by Unitech or Jai Prakash Associates. I tried to find the ratings for them on CRISIL, but couldn’t locate the same (chkd the link ‘Ratings List > Credit Ratings list’ but couldnt find these companies), can someone plz guide me or provide a link of corporate FD ratings on the CRISIL site?
Also, according to you which amongst Unitech & Jai Prakash Associates is safer? Any other company FD that you would recommend (out of personal experience) ?
Regards,
Vaibhav

@Balaji,
Many thnx for the info. But as Manish said, plz do provide the source for this and the link to find ratings on the CRISIL/ICRA site, if you are aware of the same.
@Atul,
Good idea, will go thru people’s reviews on mouthshut.com.
@All forum readers,
Still waiting for the answer on how to find ratings for corporate FDs on CRISIL/ICRA sites. Do share if u r aware of it. Yes, they can probably be found through google, but it would be good to know how to locate them on the official website.
Hi Vaibhav,
Since Company FDs give more returns compared to normal Bank FDs the risk is higher.
I checked people feedback regarding JP Associates and Unitech on http://www.Mouthsgut.com and found that there have been lapses in getting the receipts, withdrawals etc.
Please take your own call.

Atul
