What is Platinum Deposit Scheme?

Under the scheme, citizens can avail additional interest up to 0.15% for term deposits of 75 days, 75 weeks, and 75 months.

Moreover, under the Special Scheme given in it, citizens can choose 75 days, 525 days, and 2,250 days time under which additional interest can be charged on investment.

They have been kept away from the scheme

Recurring deposits, tax saving deposits, annual deposits MACAD deposits, multi-option deposits, and capital gains schemes will not get the benefit from the scheme. On the other hand, NRE and NRO deposits of senior citizens and staff have also been kept away from it.

The current interest rate for customers is 3.90 percent for a 75-day period, which will be increased to 3.95 percent.

In the case of term deposit, interest will be paid every month and in three months, while the special term deposit will be paid on completion of the interest period.

These interest rates are for senior citizens

The interest rate under platinum deposits for senior citizens will increase from 4.40 percent to 4.45 percent for 75 days. On the other hand, a 5.60 percent interest rate will be available on a 525-day tenure. However, there will be no additional interest benefit under the 2,250-day period.
