CONFIRMED 2026-10-05 (upgraded from suspected to directly verified): no dedicated RD rate table exists anywhere on karnatakabank.bank.in - checked the RD product page, the rates-and-charges hub (which lists only Deposit/Loan/Savings interest categories, no RD entry), and direct URL guesses (all 404). The RD product page's own "Interest rates explained" accordion states RD interest "is usually similar to" FD - explicitly hedged language, not an exact-equivalence statement. RD page headline "Interest earned Up to 6.75%" remains LOWER than the FD max (7.40% for 555-day senior), actively contradicting an RD=FD assumption - rdRates correctly left empty, do not fall back to FD rates for this bank without a genuine dedicated RD table turning up
