As a result of the adjustment, the bank now offers interest rates on deposits with maturities ranging from 7 days to 120 months that fall between 3.25% and 6.75% for the general public and 3.75% to 7.50% for senior citizens.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), which has raised the repo rate four times in a row, has compelled the banks to raise their fixed deposit (FD) rates. However, on FDs, some banks are providing rates that outpace inflation. The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting of the Reserve Bank of India began on December 5 and will last three days. On December 7, when the RBI will publish its decision about the repo rate adjustment, the meeting will come to an end. In the meanwhile, analysts are projecting another repo rate rise, which might drive fixed deposit interest rates higher.
