This is for the fixed rate term loans. Unless its an unavoidable circumstances to increase I see this as a mean to show higher returns for coming quarters. Those who know ppl should dispute this and get it reversed.

But there are many who plead with the bank to reduce their fixed rate when the rates go down and the bank eventually reduces a bit in fear of them taking a cheaper loan from another bank and settling it.

In the first place why there are two schemes of flexible and fixed interest rates

And also mind you we are not witnessed drastic change in interest rates in the market.
If this is true consequenses should be much much worse for the bank.
I still believe they cant do such to a person who took a fixed rate loan unless otherwise there is a Jilmart in the agreement.

Carefully go through the Offer Letter / Loan Agreement, if it is fixed for the full term of the loan without any review conditions, they can't increase the rate.
If still they increase 01st you can complain to the Financial Ombudsman, web add is given below
