ICICI & HDFC Banks Cut Fixed Deposit Interest Rates
Imagine you have money saved in a special account called a fixed deposit (FD) at ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank.
These banks have decided to slightly lower the interest rates you earn on that money.
This means you'll get a little less money back over time.
ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank have changed the interest rates on different terms (like how long your money stays in the FD).
Generally, the longer you leave your money, the more interest you get.
Senior citizens usually get even better rates.
It's like the banks are changing how much they pay for you to keep your money with them.
ICICI Bank and HDFC Bank have reduced fixed deposit interest rates on select tenures.
The revised rates are effective from May 27, 2025, for ICICI Bank and May 23, 2025, for HDFC Bank.
ICICI Bank has reduced FD rates on several key tenures, with rates now ranging from 3.00% to 6.75% for general citizens.
HDFC Bank also adjusted its FD interest rates, with rates now ranging from 3.00% to 6.85% for general citizens.
Senior citizens receive higher interest rates than general citizens at both banks.
