Check out the latest bank deposit rates

Bank fixed deposits regained their lost glory during the hardening of interest rates. So much so that they even scored over government saving schemes. However, taking a cue from recent government policies, banks have been slashing the deposit rates for the last few months. Bankers attribute this trend to surplus liquidity in the system as well as lower credit offtake. Whatever be the case, term deposit schemes have still not lost their attraction, particularly in view of the lack of good investment options in the market.

Here we take a look at the latest bank deposit rates of some leading banks:
