However, this time, the Government reduced the interest of all Post Office Small Saving Schemes Interest Rates (except savings account interest rate, which was retained at 4%) for the period of July to September for 10 basis points. It is all due to the falling interest rate in Bank FDs and also due to RBI reduced the interest rate in its recent monetary policy.
