SBI Vs PNB Vs HDFC Bank Vs ICICI Bank Latest FD Rates Compared After Recent Hike

|

The Reserve Bank Of India (RBI) increased the repo rate by 50 basis points in September, which encouraged banks and other financial institutions such as NBFCs to raise their interest rates on fixed-rate deposits (FD). The RBI has increased the repo rate four times in 2022 since May.

 

The combined repo rate hike is 1.90 percent, and the current repo rate after the 4 hikes is 5.90 percent. Following the last repo rate hike, many of the top banks raised their FD rates in October 2022 for terms ranging from 7 days to 10 years. Most banks now offer FDs starting from 3.50 percent.

Since conservative investors prefer fixed deposits as their first investment destination because FDs offer safe and guaranteed returns on investments, it becomes important to compare FD rates by top banks. In October, 4 leading banks of India hiked the FD interest rates below 2 crores following the repo rate hike.

These 4 leading banks are from both private and public sectors, which include the State Bank Of India (SBI), Punjab National Bank (PNB), HDFC Bank & ICICI Bank. The trend is likely to be followed in the upcoming days by many other banks. You might think about investing in fixed deposits given the recent increases in interest rates given the flexibility and security they provide.
