Bank of India(BOI) Raises FD Rates Up to 7.60% for Super Senior Citizens, May 18, 2026

For balances under ₹3 crore, Bank of India has raised interest rates on its medium- and long-term fixed deposits. The updated prices go into effect on May 18, 2026.

In light of the present interest rate environment, the raise mainly covers deposit tenures between one and three years, providing depositors with larger returns.

Revised Fixed Deposit Rates (Less than ₹3 Crore)

 

Tenure	General Public	Senior Citizens	Super Senior Citizens
1 Year to < 2 Years	6.50%	7.00%	7.15%
2 Years to <3 Years	6.60%	7.10%	7.25%
3 Years	6.70%	7.20%	7.35%

 

 

Additional Benefits:

• For deposits of 3 years and above, Senior Citizens will get an extra 0.75% p.a. and Super Senior Citizens 0.90% p.a. over the card rates.

• Non-callable deposits (above ₹1 crore with minimum tenure of 1 year) will earn an additional 0.15% p.a.

• Senior/Super Senior Citizen additional rates apply on tenures from 6 months to less than 3 years as per the new structure.

Important Notes:

• Loan against Fixed Deposit facility and premature withdrawal are available only on callable deposits.

• Customers can open these Fixed Deposits at any Bank of India branch or digitally through the BOI Omni Neo App and Internet Banking.

 

Why This Matters

With RBI’s repo rate stance and softening inflation, several banks are selectively hiking FD rates to attract longer-term deposits. Bank of India’s latest revision makes its 2-3 year deposits quite competitive, especially for senior citizens who can now earn up to 7.60% on longer tenures.

Best For:

• Retirees looking for stable monthly/quarterly income

• Conservative investors seeking safety with higher returns

• Those planning to park funds for 1-3 years

Retail depositors are advised to compare rates across banks before booking, as small differences in rates can significantly impact returns on large deposits.

CBI Action: Bank of India(BOI) General Manager(GM) Under Scanner in Fraud Case

According to reports, the General Manager (GM) of Bank of India is the target of a case filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Ten entities/firms with cash credit (CC) and overdraft (OD) accounts with Bank of India allegedly gave him an unfair advantage totaling Rs 43.42 lakh.

He was employed by Bank of India as Chief Manager at the time. According to the CBI, a complaint was filed claiming that A. Kumar, while employed as Chief Manager of the Bank of India, Itwari Branch, Nagpur, between February 2024 and March 2025, had obtained an unfair advantage from the entities/firms involved in a transaction or business he conducted.

"It is observed that Kumar permitted Temporary Overdraft (TOD) or Temporary Loan (TOL) transactions without reporting under prudential supervisory reporting system and in violation of the Bank's guidelines," the bank's Chief Vigilance Officer wrote in a February letter to the CBI. It was discovered that money that had been moved to Kumar's savings account had been embezzled.

Kumar abused his official position as the Chief Manager and sanctioning authority at the time by transferring funds to his personal account, allowing unauthorized TOD/TOL without customer applications, and debiting cash credit/loan accounts with insufficient funds.

Additionally, he deceived some borrowers into sending money out of compassion. He has permitted the transfer of money for personal benefit without the consent of the client in situations where no formal directive was received.

It has been reported that these funds were used for stock market investments. Considering the aforementioned, it was determined that he had prima facie criminal intent. Therefore, I believe that a Prevention of Corruption Act investigation is necessary.

In accordance with Section 11 of the Prevention of Corruption Act (obtaining undue advantage by a public servant without consideration from a person concerned in a proceeding or business transacted by such public servant), the CBI has filed a case against Kumar.

Registration of Bank of India(BOI) Officers Organisation cancelled in Rajasthan

The Bank of India Officers' Organization (BOIOO-NOBO) has had its registration revoked by the Rajasthan Registrar of Trade Unions due to several irregularities, such as falsified signatures and inconsistent membership records.

The Office of the Registrar of Trade Unions, Rajasthan, has revoked the Bank of India Officers' Organization's (BOIOO-NOBO) registration, which is a major step in the banking trade union sector. Following a thorough review of documents, complaints, and statutory compliance under the Trade Unions Act, 1926, the order, dated March 25, 2026, was issued.

The organisation held Registration No. RTU-01/2022 dated 06.01.2022, which now stands cancelled with immediate effect.

The order states that complaints and supporting documentation submitted to the authority were reviewed before the decision was made. The Registrar noted that the registration was obtained in contravention of the Trade Unions Act's,1926 restrictions. 

The authority observed that the registered union did not provide a satisfactory answer throughout the hearings, even though they were given opportunities to state their position. Statements from a few people who claimed their names were added as founding members without their permission are included in the order. 

Additionally, they rejected signing any registration-related paperwork. The authority began to doubt the veracity of the documents provided during the registration process as a result of these allegations. The ruling was mostly based on the allegations of falsified signatures and unapproved name inclusion.

Inconsistencies in the membership information provided at the time of registration were discovered during examination. The stated membership strength did not correspond with the official records that were at hand. In order to reflect increased membership numbers, it was also noted that names of those connected to another union were included. 

This discrepancy was identified as a significant anomaly in the registration procedure. The organization's declaration of a bank property as its registered office without the necessary authorization or No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the bank was also highlighted by the Registrar. 

This was regarded as a violation of the Trade Unions Act of 1926's legal requirements. According to the order, the registered union received notices that gave it a chance to voice its opinions.However, no office bearers appeared before the authority, and no response was submitted to address the observations raised.

Based on the findings, the Additional Labour Commissioner & Registrar of Trade Unions, Rajasthan, exercised statutory powers under the Trade Unions Act, 1926, and ordered cancellation of the registration granted on 06.01.2022.

The cancellation has been made effective immediately.

The order appears to have been circulated to all concerned parties, including the bank’s head office. As of now, no further developments from the bank’s end have been reported.

The cancellation of BOIOO-NOBO’s registration follows documented findings related to discrepancies in membership records, alleged forged declarations, and procedural non-compliance. The order, issued on 25 March 2026, brings the registration granted under RTU-01/2022 to an immediate end.

CBI files case of Rs 2.78 crore fraud with Bank of India(BOI) Branch in UP; investigation begins

 The CBI has started investigating the fraud case of Rs 2.78 crore in the name of giving Mudra loan in the Barauli Malik branch of Bank of India in Barabanki.

The CBI, Lucknow's Anti-Corruption Branch, has registered an FIR and begun an investigation into the Rs 2.78 crore fraud committed in the name of Mudra loans at the Barauli Malik branch of Bank of India in Barabanki. On Tuesday, the CBI raided four locations of the accused in Lucknow and one in Mainpuri, gathering crucial evidence. The CBI has named the bank's then branch manager, field officer Shailendra, and unidentified individuals in the FIR.

The CBI registered this FIR on the orders of the Lucknow bench of the Allahabad High Court. After the incident came to light, on February 21, 2024, then-branch manager Rajiv Bachchan filed a complaint with the Zaidpur police station in Barabanki, requesting an FIR, but the police did not register a case. The bank told the CBI that in 2022-23, then-branch manager Aman Verma had approved Mudra loans for 41 people. The loan amount was later transferred to other unauthorized accounts, causing financial loss to the bank.

He also requested the CBI to recover the loan amount from the accounts to which the funds were transferred and to block withdrawals. According to sources, middleman Suresh Rawat would bring people in to open accounts and, with the connivance of bank employees, would obtain Mudra loans in their names. This fraud was carried out by taking advantage of the lack of security deposit for Mudra loans up to ₹10 lakh.

Later, due to non-payment of the loan amount, two FIRs were registered at the Zaidpur police station in Barabanki and one in Satrikh. The victim, Salman, then approached the High Court. He told the court that bank employees had fraudulently obtained his signature and granted him a Mudra loan of Rs 9.10 lakh. Upon learning of this, he filed a police complaint, but no action was taken.
