Post Office Saving Schemes: Despite the reduction in the repo rate by the Reserve Bank of India, almost all banks have reduced the interest rates on fixed deposits (FDs). In contrast, the post office is still offering the same interest rates to its customers as before. Even after the fall in the repo rate, the post office has not made any change in the interest rates on its savings schemes.
The post office is offering interest ranging from 6.9 percent to 7.5 percent on the time deposit scheme to its customers. Let us tell you that the post office TD scheme is exactly like the FD scheme of banks, in which fixed returns are received after a fixed time.
