Interest Rates on small savings schemes


While interest rates for most of the instrument types have remained unchanged, rates on post office time deposits have been revised upwards by 10 bps to 20 bps (100 bps is equivalent to 1 percentage point.).  Public Provident Fund remains one of the best option for long term secured investment.
