flag India to replace 64-year-old flat bank deposit insurance rate with risk-based premiums starting April 1, 2026.

flag India’s deposit insurance system will shift to a risk-based premium model starting April 1, 2026, replacing the 64-year-old flat rate of 12 paise per ₹100 of deposits. flag Banks will be categorized A to D based on risk, with premiums ranging from 8 to 12 paise, offering up to 33% savings for low-risk institutions. flag Stronger banks may see improved profitability, while regional rural banks and cooperative banks face a separate assessment. flag Local area banks and payments banks remain under the flat rate due to data issues. flag A vintage incentive allows up to 25% discount for stable, long-standing banks. flag Premiums must be paid in advance, and ratings are confidential. flag The system will be reviewed every three years.
