PNB, UCO Bank, Others Offer Attractive Fixed Deposit Interest Rates; Check Them Here
Bank FD is popular among those individuals who do not want to invest in risky assets and want a safe and secure return for their investments.

Bank Fixed Deposit Interest Rates: Banks across India have been hiking their interest rates on loans and deposits ever since the Reserve Bank of India increased its repo rates in an off-cycle Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting last month. Bank FD is popular among those individuals who do not want to invest in risky assets and want a safe and secure return for their investments. FDs offer a stable and guaranteed rate of return. This also comes in as a better option when stock markets are not performing well and running on losses. Fixed deposits, even when their returns are lower than risk assets, do not incur losses to the investors.

Almost every bank in India, including PSUs, have the option of opening fixed deposit accounts for customers. Here are the fixed deposit interest rates of some PSUs, which offer best returns.
