FD Interest Rates Paid By Major Banks On Deposits Below 1 Crores
Fixed deposit (FD) is a financial instrument provided by banks, non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) and post offices. In case of a bank fixed deposit, the annual returns on FDs do not change according to geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties. However, the interest rates on FDs vary according to separate maturity baskets across different banks. Consider this- on deposits of Rs 1 crore for one year, SBI pays an FD interest rate of 6.8 per cent. Private sector peers HDFC Bank and ICICI Bank pay 7.3 per cent and 6.9 per cent respectively, on the same amount and maturity.
Given below are the latest fixed deposit interest rates offered by SBI, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank and Indian Overseas Bank:
