'It has been determined that if a Term Deposit (TD) expires with unpaid proceeds, the amount left unclaimed with the bank shall attract a rate of interest as applicable to savings accounts or the contracted rate of interest on the matured TD, whichever is lesser,' RBI states in a circular. All commercial banks, small financing banks, community banks, and cooperative banks must comply with the new standards.
