FAQs on IDBI Bank MCLR & Base Rate

  • Do all banks have the same MCLR rate?

    No, the MCLR rate is different for all the banks. Every bank considers its internal factors such as operating expenses, cost of funds and calculates its MCLR rate. 

  • Which is lesser, the base rate or the MCLR?

    The MCLR is typically less than the base rate. Even though they are established on similar concepts, the base rate is determined by the typical cost of borrowing, whereas the MCLR is based on the additional or marginal cost of borrowing. Thus, the base rate is determined by assessing the lowest acceptable profit margin or return on investment. 

  • How do MCLR and base rate impact loan interest rates?

    Comparing the base rate to MCLR, a lower MCLR leads to reduced interest rates, translating to smaller EMIs for borrowers. Conversely, the base rate correlates directly with the central bank's rate. Should the RBI elevate the base rate, commercial banks would subsequently raise their loan interest rates, resulting in higher costs for borrowers.
