Savings account interest rate revision

In addition to FD rates, HDFC Bank has revised its savings account interest rates, introducing a flat rate structure across all balance tiers. Effective June 10, 2025, all savings account holders will now earn a uniform interest rate of 2.75% per annum.Previously, the bank offered 2.75% for balances below Rs 50 lakh and 3.25% for balances of Rs 50 lakh and above.

Industry-wide impact

HDFC Bank’s rate revision follows similar moves by other major banks, including ICICI Bank, Canara Bank, and Kotak Mahindra Bank, which have also adjusted their fixed deposit rates in response to the RBI’s policy shift. The repo rate cut is expected to stimulate borrowing and impact returns on traditional savings instruments, affecting both investors and borrowers.
