Methodology

The realistic rate, not the marketing ceiling

Several accounts here publish tiered rates by balance slab — a headline "up to 8%" is often only reachable on balances far larger than an ordinary saver holds. Where the exact slab breakpoints were disclosed, the rate shown is what applies at a realistic balance (roughly ₹1-10L), not the ceiling.

Where a bank's own published tiers weren't fully broken out in this data, that's said plainly in the entry rather than presenting an unverifiable number as a guarantee — check the exact slab on the bank's own rate page before assuming it applies to your balance.
