For a tenure of 3-4 years, the interest rate is trimmed to 2.92 per cent from 2.99 per cent and on 4-5 years term deposit, the new rate is 3.35 per cent.
The fixed deposit for five years would now invite lower interest rate of 3.68 per cent against 3.79 per cent, it said.
On NRE term deposits, the applicable rate of interest form October 1 is 3.01 per cent for maturities of 1 year to less than 2 years while 3.10 per cent for maturities of 2 years to less than 3 years.
