Customers will now enjoy a variable interest rate ranging from 3.50% to 7% on their savings account balances.
This adjustment ensures that interest is calculated on a daily basis and credited quarterly.

Shift in Fixed Deposit (FD) Interest Rates
In addition to modifying savings account rates, Yes Bank has also made changes to its Fixed Deposit (FD) interest rates for amounts less than Rs 2 crore, effective July 28, 2023.
