\n
\n The revised rates were announced on the bank’s official website.\n
\n
\n The reduction comes days after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) trimmed the repo rate by 25 basis points to 5.25%, prompting banks to adjust lending and deposit rates.\n
\n
\n For tenures of 18 months to less than 21 months, HDFC Bank has cut FD rates by 15 basis points. The rate for general customers has been reduced from 6.6% to 6.45% per annum, while senior citizens now earn 6.95% per annum, down from 7.1%.\n
\n
\n Other tenures ranging from seven days to ten years have also been revised, with rates varying between 2.75% and 6.40% depending on the deposit period and customer category.\n\n
