8 Private Sector Banks That Revised Interest Rates On FD In November 2021
Some private sector banks adjusted their interest rates on deposits last month, ahead of the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) bi-monthly monetary policy review, which has been held today, December 8, 2021. After its bi-monthly monetary policy review, the RBI confirmed today that the repo and reverse repo rates will remain unchanged on December 8, 2021. The repo rate is now at 4%, while the reverse rate is fixed at 3.35 percent. Banks such as HDFC Bank, and Non-Banking Financial Companies such as HDFC Ltd, and Bajaj Finance have all raised their FD interest rates in the recent days of the current month.
And, in the face of banks' low-interest rate strategies, we always advise our readers to invest in short-term deposits, because when interest rates start to climb, short- to medium-term term deposit rates are among the first to emerge, making it a clear recommendation not to lock-in your deposits for the long term. As a result of certain large private sector banks that revised their fixed deposit interest rates in November, we've analysed their new rates to offer you a clear understanding of whether you should invest in the short or long term.
