State-run Vijaya Bank on Tuesday announced a reduction in term deposit interest rates by 25 basis points.

The reduction in deposit rates will be applicable for term deposits of different slabs from 91 days to above five years maturity, it said in a release.

The new deposit rates will be effective April 12, it said.

Now the bank said it offers "attractive" rate of interest of 7.50% on deposits of one year maturity.
