Bank Interest Rates: India

July 3, 2009

in Investments

Here is a list of 20 bank interest rates of Indian banks. These are applicable from June of 2009, and the banks may change this anytime, so this list may not be up to date. Each bank name is linked to the website of the bank and clicking it will land you on the page which has the latest deposit rates. Click that to ensure that the data you are viewing is up to date.

Most banks have laid out terms which are not very easy to compare from one to another, and so I have taken the rates which I found on most websites. Most of these rates are for deposits of under Rs. 15 lakhs.

I stopped at 20 because each bank has listed out its terms differently and I wasn’t happy with the comparison chart that follows.  Treat this  as a sort of a rough comparison chart.

Hmmm …. confusing comparsion (alright … you’ve already mentioned to use it roughly !). Any idea why is there no definite pattern in the interest rates vs periods, i believe that more the lock-in period, the higher should be the interest but that’s not always true. What are the other factors ?

Regards,
Pawan

I was under the same assumption that you were Pawan, and was quite surprised to see these results after I had compiled them.

A thing worth mentioning is that sometimes an in between period fetches a higher rate of interest.

So, if you click on the HDFC link, and scroll down, you will see that for 2 years 16 days they offer 7.25% and then 2 years and 17 days upwards is 6%. That sounds unusual, but I don’t know why that happens.
