Banks in India have revised their Fixed Deposit (FD) interest structures for senior citizens in 2025, introducing new slabs across both short-term (1-year) and long-term (5-year) deposits. Rate adjustments are linked to improved liquidity conditions and RBI’s neutral policy stance.

- 5-Year FD: Stronger 0.25%–0.50% revisions
- Senior Citizen Premium: Remains at 0.50%–0.75% above normal FD rates
Private banks generally revised rates upward to attract long-term deposits. Meanwhile, PSU banks focused on steady returns, favoring conservative investors.
