My father was also lured by High rate of interest of Corporate Fixed Deposit and made mistake of his life. He invested in big Corporate Builder's . He made 3 Fixed deposit with 3 big builder Jaypee, Unitech and Ansals API for Rs 50000 each. Idea behind investing in three different Fixed deposit was to distribute risk equally. Well he was successful in distributing risk, as only Jaypee gave money within 15 days of due date.
Others like: Ansals and Unitech are cash crunched.

Funds not available for paying back Fixed Deposits:

Their customer care , did picked up the phone and softly said that we are short of funds and our paying back period is now Eight month late.
ie for customers whose Fixed Deposit matured on 31.12.2013, are being paid in August 14.
And since his fixed deposit has matured in Jun'14 then we can expect Fixed Deposit amount -by mar 15.
Liquidity: Funds are available when required:
Well tragedy is that he had invested money from pension and provident fund and now when he needed money for medical expenses then the money is not available to use.

Loss to investor:

Well customer care executive did say that we will not let investor suffer. Both Unitech and Ansals are paying 18% rate of interest on delayed payment.

Is Money safe, Will I get money back from Corporate Fixed Deposit

Yes due to recent cases like Sahara India ( where  Sahara chief was sent to jail for not paying Fixed deposit ) and changes in Investor protection law by CLB , i am hopeful that we will receive our money back.

Final Judgement not to invest in Corporate Fixed Deposit

My advice to Dad had been to invest in Bank Fixed Deposit or PPF because they are safe. And my advice to all investor is not to deposit money in these Corporate Fixed Deposit.

How to lodge complaint to get your Fixed deposit money back.

Corporate FDs are an unsecured investment and, to that extent, unsafe. You should have known this at the time of your investment.
There are many companies which are not as good as Jaypee , Unitech and Ansals. In such case follow these steps:
1) File a complaint with Investor Grievance Cell : Filing a complaint with the company's Investor Grievance Cell. A written and duly acknowledged letter is preferred.
2) Follow Up: Keep calling at their Fixed Deposit Department Telephone no. Telephone numbers are available on Fixed deposit and corporates Website. Unitech Tel no is 0124-4697800 and Tel no of Ansals is 011-23353550.
3) MCA and CLB:  File a complaint against the company on the website of ministry of corporate affairs (MCA) as well as the Company Law Board (CLB). Once you file the complaint with MCA and CLB, the chances of getting your money increases.
