Earn up to 7.65% with Indian Bank's IND SECURE FD: Offer ends in Sept
New Delhi
Indian Bank has revised the interest rates on its special fixed deposit scheme, IND SECURE, offering up to 7.65 per cent per annum for a limited period. The new rates are effective from June 9, 2025, and the scheme will be open for investment until September 30, 2025.
IND SECURE: A high-interest FD option
Launched on May 8, 2025, IND SECURE is a retail term deposit product with a maturity period of 444 days. The scheme allows deposits starting from Rs 1,000 to under Rs 3 crore. The revised interest rates under the scheme are:
· General public: 6.90 per cent per annum
· Senior citizens: 7.40 per cent per annum
· Super senior citizens (80 years and above): 7.65 per cent per annum
Earlier, the highest rate under this scheme was 7.15 per cent for the general public, 7.65 for senior citizens and 7.90 per cent for super senior citizens. The latest revision lowers rates, but still offers relatively attractive returns, especially for older investors.
'The bank reserves the right to withdraw or modify the scheme at its discretion before the deadline,' Indian Bank noted on its website.
IND GREEN deposit: Rates unchanged
Indian Bank's other special deposit, IND GREEN, aimed at promoting sustainable development, continues to offer existing interest rates for a 555-day term. This scheme, too, accepts deposits from Rs 1,000 up to less than Rs 3 crore. Current rates are:
· General public: 6.80 per cent
· Senior citizens: 7.30 per cent
· Super senior citizens: 7.55 per cent
Revised regular FD rates across tenures
Alongside special schemes, Indian Bank has also updated its regular fixed deposit rates. For deposits below Rs 3 crore, the latest callable FD rates range from 2.80 per cent to 6.90 per cent, depending on tenure. The highest rate, 6.90 per cent, is now aligned with the IND SECURE offering for the general public.
Indian Bank FD interest rate highlights:
· 7 days to 45 days: 4.75 per cent – 5.25 per cent
· 91 days to less than 1 year: 5.75 per cent – 6.00 per cent
· 1 year: 6.25 per cent
· 3 to 5 years and beyond: 5.50 per cent
Senior and super senior citizens continue to earn an additional premium over the standard rates.
Below is a table of the FD rate and tenures provided by the bank on its website
Maturity Period Revised w.e.f 09.06.2025

Should you invest?
With repo rates trending lower post-RBI's recent policy move, fixed deposit rates across banks are beginning to soften. The IND SECURE scheme offers a short-term opportunity for savers, especially older investors, to lock in relatively higher returns for 444 days

Discom rules flouted in inflated bill cases
1 2 Jaipur: Consumers are grappling with erroneous, inflated power bills that require payment of the full amount, facing the threat of supply disconnection if unable to do so. Discom rules are often overlooked by authorities, officials said. According to officials, supply disconnection is a lengthy process, providing consumers the right to present their position and offering several opportunities to do so. However, a lack of awareness of the rules among consumers and the indifferent, authoritarian attitude of authorities at the lower level of the administration ultimately lead to harassment. They said as per the existing rules, customers are required to pay average monthly charges in cases of inflated bills and follow the process to settle disputes. "We have an internal grievance redressal (IGR) cell set up for resolving bill payment disputes arising out of faulty meter reading or overshooting contracted demand (for large consumers). Customers should not be asked to pay the full amount pending the process," a discom official said. Payment disputes involving up to Rs 20,000 are resolved at the AEN. Disputes up to Rs 50,000 are addressed by the XEN. Cases between Rs 50,000 to Rs 5 lakh are taken up at the circle level and above that at the discom's corporate level. By the time the disputes reach the corporate level, the number is reduced to about five to seven. The highest level of grievance redressal cell is represented by the managing director of discoms, an independent official from the Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission, and a senior accounts person. In fact, the IGR asks for deposits of money in the disputed cases, but they mostly involve high-value cases. Often, it is 25% or 50% of the disputed amount, depending on the nature of the case. But the rates are not uniform, said a discom official. "In most cases, the genuineness of the bill raised is known because the consumer has a record. If a meter malfunctions and the consumption of units goes up, it's easier to solve it. But in cases involving large customers when their consumption overshoots their contracted demand, we demand a deposit of 25% or 50% of the disputed amount," said the official.

Tomatoes get expensive as rains hit supply, quality
Pune/Nashik: Tomato prices in the city soared to Rs 60 to Rs 70 per kg in retail markets and hit Rs 90 to Rs 100 a kg on quick commerce platforms. Rainfall and supply disruptions have led to limited supply in the market, pushing up prices. A Pune Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) official said, "Owing to the rainfall, the supply of tomatoes has reduced in the market. The quality is also compromised usually in the monsoon. Wholesale rates are trending at around Rs 40 per kg," said Sharad Gongade, secretary of the Narayangaon market, a major hub for tomatoes in the state, said, "Prices have increased to Rs 700 to Rs 800 per 20kg crate now owing to lesser supply in the market. Prices should come down in a few weeks in August."

The average wholesale tomato price increased by 153% in the last 14 days, from Rs 18 per kg on July 18 to Rs 45.55 per kg on Friday at Pimpalgaon and Nashik APMCs. In retail markets of Nashik, the tomato price increased from Rs 25 per kg on July 18 to Rs 70 per kg to date. Rajendra Khare, an official from Nashik APMC overseeing the tomato section, said rain damaged tomato crops, causing a drop in the arrivals of the produce. The arrivals of the tomatoes have dropped by around 40% in the last fortnight, from 10,500 crates per day around a fortnight back to around 7,000 crates per day so far. "The price of tomatoes depends on the quality of the vegetable. People have no choice but to buy it. In wholesale markets, the price for small tomatoes is Rs 30 to Rs 35 per kg, and in retail, we are selling at Rs 50 to Rs 60 per kg," said Rajesh Borude, a vendor at Somwar Peth. Rohit Suryanwanshi, a vendor at the Hadaspar vegetable market, said that prices in the retail market are between Rs 45 to Rs 60 depending on the quality. "Supply is less in the market, and that is the reason prices are higher. Best quality tomatoes are selling at around Rs 60 a kg," he said. Traders said the upward trend of prices is likely to continue till mid-August or more until the new produce reaches markets.
