Kindly desist from multiple duplicate posts tagged onto other members topics. You only need to post ONCE and if and when someone is available, I am sure you will get a response.

As an aside, Fixed deposits are not usually accepted, funds must be fluid. Business bank statements are also not proof of funds available to you as they below to the business. There have been refusals of visitor visas on both of these points previously.

Ohh sorry I didn't understand how to post my queries
I have provided that I am going to use funds from those accounts if required . They are current and savings accounts on my firm name
Moreover my trip is going to be funded by my sponsor
Does it still matter ?

You have to prove to the ECO with evidence that you have strong social, family and financial ties to your home country regardless of who sponsors your trip.

All you can do now is wait for the outcome of your visa application. No one can tell you if you will be successful or not.

Out of interest, how long did you state in your application you are visiting for and how long do you plan to visit?

I have a doubt
Now that u said business account in not accepted
Now that u have told I make most of my personal payments and expenses through my business account.
As for my savings account
I do not maintain much funds in the account
As it would serve easy for me during tax filing as it would be one account .
Is it necessary to show a personal savings account or will be sufficient if I ensure that expenses are to be made through my business account in my cover letter or should I transfer some money to my savings account and mention the same and the purpose in cover letter

Hello
Happy to tell u
I got the visa today for 6 months multiple entry
Thanks so much
And basically I would like to suggest all the new applicants
To be as genuine as u van whilst u apply visa
For those particularly having business
Please submit ur business registration and also evaluation certificate by authorised officials definitely and show ur income properly
As far as fixed deposits are considered
Please note that u cannot use them as source of ur funds but definitely u can put it as ur savings and to prove ur financial stability
Lastly for all those who apply do not think too deeply becoz what might not work out for others might workout for u and please have faith and be truthful
