With the beginning of September, many such changes are going to happen, which will have a direct impact on the pocket of the common man. Their effect will be visible on everything from household budget to investment and banking. Therefore, it would be better if you know these new rules in advance and do your planning accordingly. Let us know which changes are going to be implemented from 1 September 2025.
1. Hallmarking will be mandatory on silver as well
Till now hallmarking was mandatory only for gold, but from September 1, the government is going to implement this rule on silver as well. This means that now whatever silver jewellery or goods you buy, it will be available with the prescribed standards and purity. This will protect customers from fraud. However, experts believe that this rule may affect the prices of silver. Therefore, if you are thinking of investing in silver, it will be important to keep an eye on the new prices.
2. Charges will increase on SBI card holders
State Bank of India (SBI) card users will have to follow new rules from September 1. If auto-debit fails, a 2% penalty will be imposed. Apart from this, more charges will have to be paid on international transactions and fuel purchases. The value of reward points received for online shopping may also decrease. That is, now every expense will have to be made thoughtfully, otherwise there may be an extra burden on the pocket.
3. New prices of LPG cylinders
Like every month, on September 1, oil companies will announce new prices of LPG cylinders. These prices are based on international crude oil prices and the company’s calculations. If the prices increase, the kitchen budget may get spoiled, whereas if the prices decrease, there may be some relief. Therefore, this time too, customers’ eyes are fixed on LPG rates.
4. Withdrawing cash from ATM will be expensive
Many banks are implementing new rules for ATM transactions from September. Customers will have to pay higher charges for withdrawing cash beyond the prescribed limit. The banking sector is now focusing on promoting digital transactions, so it is advised not to withdraw money from the ATM frequently except when necessary.
5. Change in FD interest rates
Many banks are going to review the interest rates on fixed deposits (FD) in September. At present, most banks are giving interest ranging from 6.5% to 7.5%. But there is a discussion in the market that interest rates may come down in the future. In such a situation, those who are planning to get FD, it may be beneficial for them to take a decision quickly.
