FIXED DEPOSIT INTEREST RATES

 RBI has given the freedom to commercial banks to fix their own interest rates on domestic term deposits of various maturities with the prior approval of their respective Board of Directors/Asset Liability Management Committee (ALCO). Banks are, however, not allowed to discriminate in the matter of interest paid on deposits, between one deposit and another, accepted on the same date and for the same maturity, whether such deposits are accepted at the same office or at different offices of the bank. Interest rates paid by the bank should be as per the schedule and should not be subject to negotiation between the depositor and the bank. Banks are allowed to offer differential rate of interest on domestic term deposits on the basis of the following:    (a) Tenor of Deposits   (b) Size of Deposits  (c) Availability of early withdrawal option  

Hence Bank customers  , to get a better interest rate on deposits  ,have to get information on interest rates being offered by various banks  for the same tenor  and place the deposit .
