The government has opted to maintain the current interest rates for small savings schemes, such as PPF and NSC, for the seventh consecutive quarter starting October 1, 2025.

According to a finance ministry notification, the interest rates will remain unchanged for the various schemes from October to December 2025, matching those set in the previous quarter.

Key rates include 8.2% for Sukanya Samriddhi, 7.1% for a three-year term deposit, 7.5% for Kisan Vikas Patra, and 7.7% for NSC. This move continues the government's trend of steady rates since changes were last made for the fourth quarter of 2023-24.
