Bank FD interest rates will increase further


Just after RBI’s latest repo rate hike on September 30, 2022, other banks like Bank of India and RBL Bank FD interest rates also increased. This was the fourth repo rate hike by the central bank since May 2022.

“… these frequent repo rate hikes have given further impetus to FD interest rates. The era of low FD rates is now definitely behind us, and FD investors can look forward to better days. The pace of rate hike is few and far between. This is expected to continue for more time,” said Adil Shetty, CEO, bankbazaar.com.
