Karur Vysya Bank Limited (karurvysya) Raises FCNR Deposit Rates, Offers Up to 7.00% P.a. on USD
Karur Vysya Bank (KARURVYSYA) raises FCNR deposit rates, offering up to 7.00% p.a. on USD deposits, enhancing returns for NRIs.
Karur Vysya Bank Limited (KARURVYSYA) has announced an increase in the interest rates on its Foreign Currency Non-Resident (FCNR) deposits, providing higher returns for Non-Resident Indians (NRIs). The bank is now offering up to 7.00% per annum on US Dollar (USD) FCNR deposits for tenures of three years and above, marking the highest rate on its FCNR ladder.
New FCNR Deposit Rates
The revised USD FCNR deposit rates are effective from June 10, 2026, and are structured as follows:
- 1 Year and above but less than 2 Years: 5.00% p.a.
- 2 Years and above but less than 3 Years: 3.66% p.a.
- 3 Years and above but less than 4 Years: 7.00% p.a.
- 4 Years and above but less than 5 Years: 7.00% p.a.
- 5 Years: 7.00% p.a.
Key Benefits for NRI Customers
The new rates come with several key benefits for NRI customers:
- Tax-efficient returns: Interest earned on FCNR deposits is exempt from income tax in India under current tax rules. Both principal and interest are fully repatriable.
- No rupee exchange risk: The deposit stays in foreign currency, so its value does not move with the Indian Rupee during the tenure.
- Forward contract facility: Customers who plan to convert funds into Indian Rupees later can book a forward contract to lock in an exchange rate.
- Loan against deposit: Customers can borrow against an FCNR deposit without breaking it, keeping funds intact while meeting a short-term need.
- Smooth account transition: When a customer’s residential status changes, KVB moves the deposit and the relationship across without disruption.
Speaking on the revised rates, Shri B. Ramesh Babu, Managing Director & CEO of Karur Vysya Bank, said, ‘NRIs want their foreign currency savings to earn more without taking on rupee risk, and these rates answer that directly. A 7.00% return on a US Dollar deposit is a strong proposition, the interest is tax-free in India under current rules, and the principal stays fully repatriable. We expect good traction from the diaspora, particularly those who plan to bring funds back to India over the next few years.’

Revenue grows at 5.0% and the stock moves sideways over three months. Neither side makes a strong case. The next earnings print will likely break this stock out of its current range.
