Senior citizen fixed deposit rates reach 7.10% across major PSU banks in May 2026, offering stable income protection amid economic uncertainty. Punjab National Bank, Union Bank of India, and Canara Bank lead with competitive rates on specific tenors, while State Bank of India and Bank of Baroda provide solid returns on longer-term deposits. With the Nifty 50 down 2.11% over the past year and inflation concerns rising from geopolitical tensions and energy prices, fixed deposits remain an attractive low-risk option for retirees seeking predictable returns. These PSU bank offerings provide crucial capital safety and steady income flow, essential for senior citizens prioritizing financial security over market volatility.
