BOB Fixed Return: Bank of Baroda India’s second-largest public sector bank by market cap, continues to offer attractive fixed deposit returns despite recent repo rate cuts by the RBI.
This move comes at a time when most banks have reduced their FD interest rates following a 1% cut in the repo rate this year.
BOB Fixed Return Scheme Details
Under the BOB Fixed Return scheme the bank currently offers interest rates ranging from 3.50% to 7.20% on different FD tenures. You can open a fixed deposit in Bank of Baroda for durations ranging from 7 days to 10 years.
At present FDs with a tenure of 444 days offer the highest returns, with rates going up to 7.20%. For deposits between one year to three years, the bank offers 6.50% to 7.10% interest, depending on the exact period and eligibility.
Extra Benefits for Senior Citizens
Bank of Baroda also provides additional benefits for senior citizens. Compared to the general public, senior citizens receive an extra 0.50% interest, while super senior citizens get 0.60% more.
This means higher guaranteed returns for elderly depositors under the BOB Fixed Return plan.
