As per the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) projection, the inflation is expected to ease from 5.4 per cent in 2023-24 to 4.5 per cent in 2024-25 and ease further to 4.1 per cent in 2025-26. So, the chances are least likely for any interest rate cut. Speaking at the “Future of Finance Forum 2024” in Singapore on September 13, RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das said the balance sheets of banks and non-banking financial intermediaries have strengthened which would give them the ability to maintain the liquidity requirement even under stressful situations. While RBI’s repo rate is a key factor that affects banks’ interest rates, banks can revise their rates independently to maintain their liquidity requirements. During the week ending September 14, 2024, five banks have revised their fixed deposit (FD) rates. Here are the details:
The bank revised the rates on September 13, 2024. It offers seniors the highest 8.55 per cent for one year tenure. For other tenures, the interest rates are:
