Why interest rates are increased by the banks?

If the banks don’t have the enough money to lend for its customers then they have to raise money from the public by the way of increasing the fixed deposit interest rates. When banks increasing the interest rates for deposits, the loans have to be more than deposit’s interest rates to be profitable. You may ask the question why suddenly banks become poor and don’t have enough money?. If the cash availability is more in the market, then it leads to the more consumption in the market it leads to the increase in prices. The the inflation will shoot up to the higher level.

Current Situation of the market

The current situation of the market is that inflation has come down (RBI thinks like that) and it is time to reduce the tightening of the cash liquidity. The news coming from the higher authority is that in the next meeting RBI would announce the decrease in the key policy rates. If that would happen, slowly banks will start reducing the interest rates in the coming months. In the past one year, RBI has increase the key policy rates for more than 12 times. It is the first time that RBI has increased such a more number of times.

If the inflation is in control for several months, the decrease in the policy rates will continue and the home loans interest rates would come down. But, one thing is that there won’t be any increase in the interest rates because it is already in the peak. We can expect the interest rates to come in the near future.

Hope that the inflation level is under control so that the interest rates would not go up once again with in a year. This is a cycle and it can not be avoided. Hope this article is useful for you.
