Dear Client,
If f the fixed deposit account is opened by 3 account holders jointly- on the death of any one of them- the surviors have the option of continuing the deposit till maturity or can get the blance transferred in their names. If nominee is some other person after death of remaining account holders he'd suceed to the FDR property.If you appreciate this answer please click the thank you button onmy profile.
