Yes. Banks are permitted to offer differential rates of interest on NRE term deposits as in the case of domestic term deposits of Rs.15 lakh and above within the ceiling prescribed. Regarding FCNR(B) deposits, banks are free to decide the currency-wise minimum quantum on which differential rate of interest may be offered subject to the overall ceiling prescribed.
