<h1>India Revises Small Savings Scheme Interest Rates; Senior Citizens and Sukanya Samriddhi Accounts See Increases.</h1> The Government of India announced revised interest rates for small savings schemes, effective from April 1, 2015. The rates are linked to yields on government securities. Key changes include an increase in the 5-Year Senior Citizens Savings Scheme from 9.2% to 9.3% and the Sukanya Samriddhi Account Scheme from 9.1% to 9.2%. Other schemes, such as the Savings Deposit, Time Deposits, and Public Provident Fund, maintain their previous rates. These adjustments reflect a general upward revision compared to the 2014-15 rates.
