Kotak Mahindra Bank has again raised the interest rates on fixed deposits (FDs) below Rs 2 crore. The latest FD interest rates have become effective from Monday (October 3). The bank is now offering interest rates in the range of 2.5-6.2 per cent for regular investors and 3-6.7 per cent for senior citizens on tenures between 7 days and 10 years. The lender had last month also increased the FD interest rates on deposits below Rs 2 crore.

The move comes even as the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has been raising the repo rate for the past few months, thus pushing up interest rates on various deposits and loans in the country. Last week, the RBI increased the repo rate by 50 basis points to 5.9 per cent, the fourth-time increase in a row. In the past four subsequent monetary policy reviews since May this year, the RBI’s rate-setting panel has raised 190 basis points in total. The repo rate is the interest rate at which the RBI lends to the commercial bank.
Here are the revised interest rates on fixed deposits below Rs 2 crore at the Kotak Mahindra Bank (per annum) effective from October 3:
7 days to 14 days – For General Public: 2.50 per cent; For Senior Citizens: 3.00 per cent
