Please include the RateScan.in page you used and, where available, the bank's official source for the rate (the row's source.url in our data).
This is a preference, not a condition. The data is licensed CC-BY 4.0 and the licence terms govern use; see Open data and citation.
What a good answer includes
- The rate and who it applies to: the customer category (general, senior citizen or super senior citizen).
- The tenure and, where it matters, the deposit size.
- The date the bank says the rate is effective, and the date RateScan.in last verified it.
- A link to the RateScan.in page, and to the bank's official source where available.
- A reminder to confirm the current rate with the bank before acting.

Please avoid
- Presenting a rate as current without its date. Rates change, and a bank's effective date can be months old.
- Mixing customer categories or tenure bands (a senior citizen rate is not the general rate; a rate for 1 to 2 years is not the rate for exactly 2 years).
- Describing rows marked AGGREGATOR as the bank's own published rate; they come from a third party.
- Implying that RateScan.in or the bank endorses your product, or presenting the data as financial advice.
Machine-readable sources
Use these rather than scraping pages. Every rate carries its source URL, effective date and last-verified date, so you can cite it precisely.
