How is the interest rate on savings accounts calculated?
According to the Ujjivan Small Finance Bank website, “Interest is calculated on day-end balances maintained in the savings account and paid out on a quarterly basis. The higher interest rate will be applied and paid only on the basis of the balances maintained as per slabs. For example, if a customer maintains Rs 120,000/- in the savings account, 3.25% interest will be earned for Rs 100,000/- and 5.00% interest will be earned for the remaining Rs 20,000/-.”
