FD interest rate up to 8.25% for senior citizens investing for one year tenure
Despite interest rates witnessing a wave of reductions there are still many banks who are offering a high rate of interest of up to 8.25% on Fixed Deposits (FDs). These rates are offered on FDs worth less than Rs 3 crore and for one year tenure for senior citizens. This short-term tenure along with high interest rate makes a great combo for senior citizens who have idle money and want to earn some interest off it. Moreover, from April 1, 2025 senior citizens can enjoy a higher threshold for TDS deduction on FD interest. Senior citizen Bank FD interest rate for one year tenure Senior citizen FD rate up to 8.25% Bandhan Bank is offering up to 8.25%% interest rate on FDs for one year tenure for senior citizens. Senior citizen FD rate up to 8% IndusInd Bank is offering up to 8% interest rate on FDs for one year tenure for senior citizens. RBL Bank is offering up to 8% interest rate on FDs for one year tenure for senior citizens. Bank Interest rate Bandhan Bank 8.25% IndusInd Bank 8% RBL Bank 8% Tamilnad Mercantile Bank 7.75% Source: as on May 7, 2025 Senior citizen FD rate up to 7.75% Tamilnad Mercantile Bank is offering up to 7.75% interest rate on FDs for one year tenure for senior citizens. Higher TDS threshold for senior citizen investing in FDs While presenting the Budget 2025, tThe finance minister has stated that TDS rates will be rationalised in the Budget 2025 giving much needed relief to taxpayers. The limit for tax deduction at source (TDS) on interest for senior citizens has been being doubled from the present Rs 50,000 to Rs 1 lakh. So this means if your interest amount in a particular bank's FD is less than Rs 1 lakh, the respective bank will not deduct any TDS. Read More Tax relief for cash Isa savers rose to £2.1bn last year Moreover, even if the interest amount is more than Rs 1 lakh but your total income after all deductions is less than Rs 12 lakh then you can submit Form 15H and by doing this the bank will not deduct TDS even if the interest is over Rs 1 lakh for FY 2025-26 (AY 2026-27). Form 15H is a self-declaration form that senior citizens (60 years & above) can submit to avoid TDS on income, provided their total net tax liability is zero. Do note that the TDS deducted by banks can very well be claimed at the time of ITR filing, so it's not like any extra tax, but it's like an additional tax compliance process to follow. Chartered Accountant Ashish Karundia says: 'Form 15H offers a valuable opportunity for senior citizen taxpayers to receive specified income from the payer without any tax deduction, up to Rs 12 lakh under the new tax regime, as the tax payable would-be Nil after considering the Section 87A rebate. Essentially, if eligible for TDS exemption, there's no need to let tax be deducted and then claim a refund. Additionally, timely submission of Form 15H ensures better liquidity in the hands of senior citizens.' READ SOURCE

ICICI Securities downgrades Bandhan Bank to Add, target price Rs 185
Financials Bandhan Bank reported muted Q4FY25 PAT of Rs 3.2 billion (RoA of 0.7%). Loan growth was slower, at 4% QoQ (10% YoY), while NIM continued its moderating trajectory (down 20bps QoQ to 6.7%) as growth remained driven by secured loans. Slippages inched up QoQ but were broadly in line at ~5.1% QoQ (vs. 4.9% QoQ). SMA 0+1+2 improved to 3.3% vs. 3.8% QoQ. However, SMA0 in West Bengal (WB) flared up to 2.3% (vs. 0.9%) due to localised issues and bunched-up holidays, though this has been partly rolled-back as on date, as per management. Exposure to Karnataka and Tamil Nadu is limited at ~1% each of the EEB book. The bank believes that credit costs have peaked, though should remain elevated in H1FY26 with improvement in H2FY26. Despite building in ~14?15% YoY growth, PPOP growth is likely to be muted for FY26? 27E due to pressure on NIM (unfavorable loan mix change) and opex growth outpacing loan growth. Investment Rationale Post the risk-weight rollback by RBI, Tier-1 at Bandhan Bank has jumped to 17.9%, suggesting a strong capital buffer. ICICI Securities appreciates management's strategy of focusing on secured products to drive growth and structurally reducing embedded risk in the business. While the bank seems well placed on the interest rate cycle with ~55% higher share of fixed rate loans and ~30% share of wholesale TD. However, continued loan mix change in favour of secured loans (~1,000bps differential) would continue to weigh on NIM; down ~30bps YoY in FY26, in our estimate. Bandhan Bank shall remain in investment phase with rising opex to assets ratio; thus leaving credit costs as the only lever for RoA (likely to play out in H2FY26). The stock trades at an inexpensive at ~1x/0.9x FY26E/FY27E ABV with stable ~1.5% RoA. The target price of Rs 185 (~1x FY27E ABV) is unchanged.
