    Hi Krish,

    Yes… The FD interest rates are reduced. Banks like HDFC offers only 7.5% p.a. It may not come down further.

    Thanks,
    Krishna

    It’s been written “Under Sunidhi term-deposit scheme, one of the schemes launched by NHB the investors would get 9.25 per cent interest for 12 months and 9 per cent interest for up to five years.”
    Are the interest rates other way around?
