Many banks including ICICI Bank and Indian Bank have raised their fixed deposit (FD) interest rates this month. Amid rising inflation, when the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) increased the repo rate from 5.25% to 5.50% early this month, some banks raised their deposit rates. The possibility of further FD rate hikes can’t also be ruled out.
However, banks may not increase rates on all of their FD tenures and they may also take from some days to years to increase the rates. The FD rate hike may also vary from bank to bank.
Here we take you through the recent FD rate changes by ICICI Bank and Bank of India. We will also take you through the FD rates offered by State Bank of India (SBI) and HDFC Bank.
For general citizens, the rate on FDs with tenures of three years and one day to five years has increased from 6.50% to 6.60%. The same revised rate applies to deposits with tenures of five years and one day to 10 years and to the five-year tax-saver FD.
Senior citizens can earn up to 7.20% on deposits with tenures of three years and one day to five years and on the five-year tax-saver FD.
