Interest Rates For Senior Citizens
On fixed deposits up to Rs 2 crore, SBI pays a 50-basis-point (0.5 percentage point) higher return to senior citizens compared to other customers.
Investment Limit
While there is no upper limit to the amount, the bank has mandated a minimum investment of Rs 1,000 for parking funds in its retail fixed deposits.
Change In Interest Rates
SBI offers both monthly and quarterly interval options for crediting the interest in retail fixed deposit accounts. However, the payment of interest on a monthly basis is made at a discounted rate, according to the SBI website.
SBI revises interest rates applicable to fixed deposits from time to time. The interest is paid at the contracted rate irrespective of any change in the rates.
