Axis Bank has recently updated its Fixed Deposit (FD) rates for amounts under Rs 2 crore, now offering an interest rate of up to 7.10 per cent for the general public and 7.60 per cent for senior citizens on tenures ranging from 15 months to 5 years. These new FD rates came into effect on 12 October.
Axis Bank has also stated that it reserves the right to disallow premature withdrawal of large deposits exceeding Rs 5 crores for entities other than Individuals and Hindu Undivided Family (HUF).

The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting, presided over by RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das, took place from 4 October to 6 October. Governor Das, while announcing the MPC’s unanimous decision, confirmed that the repo rate would remain at 6.5 per cent.
