Along with this, rates between 3.5 percent to 7.25 percent are being offered to senior customers of the bank for different periods.

Depositors benefited from the change in key rates

Banks of the country are continuously increasing the deposit rates. In fact, due to the increase in the prime rates by the Reserve Bank, there has been an increase in the loan rates, due to which the banks have an opportunity to attract the deposits of the people and they are continuously increasing the deposit rates as well. Only last week Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) has increased interest rates on domestic, foreign currency non-resident (banking) fixed deposits.
