  Kotak Mahindra Bank, one of the country’s leading private-sector lender has brought down the interest rates on fixed-deposits of one year by 25 basic points to 7% - visibly lower than 7.05% offered by the State Bank of India on the same. This new rate will come into effect on Monday. This move by Kotak Mahindra Bank comes close on the heels of a similar lowering of interest rates by its larger competitor HDFC. Earlier, the State Bank of India had rolled back interest rates by 10bps – starting on October 24 – bringing it to a six-year low. HDFC had followed suit - cutting interest rates by 25 bps – starting November 8. Kotak has also slashed interest rates on two and three year deposits by 50bps each - bringing it down to 6.75%. Meanwhile, SBI’s rates for the same are at 7% and 6.5% respectively – and HDFC offers the same at the rate of 7% for both terms. Meanwhile, private sector competitors ICICI Bank and Axis Bank continue to offer interest rates of one, two and three year deposits at 7.25%.

  With the recent demonetization move undertaken by the government and the resulting stoppage of 500 and 1000 rupee notes, the average quantum of deposits in banks have witnessed a significant rise.
