State Bank of India has reviewed the Marginal Cost of funds based Lending Rate with effect from 01 October 2018. MCLR is defined as the minimum rate of interest benchmarked by the bank below which the bank cannot lend to the customers.
Current SBI MCLR Rate
| Tenor | SBI MCLR Rates |
|---|---|
| Overnight | 8.15% |
| 1 Month | 8.15% |
| 3 Month | 8.20% |
| 6 Month | 8.35% |

As per the latest RBI guidelines, State Bank of India has reviewed the interest rates applicable to SBI Home Loans for both women as well as other applicants/co-applicants. The bank has hiked the Marginal Cost of funds based Lending Rate by 5 basis points (bps) or 0.05% across all tenures. The MCLR for overnight and one-month tenures presently stands at 8.15%. The bank has set the MCLR for three-months and six-months at 8.20% and 8.35% respectively. The one-year MCLR on which most retail loans are benchmarked now stands at 8.50%.
Switching to a MCLR to a base rate system primarily involves two steps.

State Bank of India, one the leading lenders by assets in the country, has raised the marginal cost of funds based lending rates (MCLR) across tenures by 5 basis points. The revised rates shall be effective immediately. With home loan interest rates linked to the MCLR, the interest rates are expected to go up on the loans. New home loan borrowers will have to pay a higher rate of interest on their loans while existing borrowers can continue paying the same rate until the reset clause is specified. In most MCLR-linked home loans, the bank resets the rate of interest only after 6-12 month as per the agreement between the bank and the customer. Once the reset clause has been activated, the rate of interest associated with the new MCLR becomes the new rate. The new rate will be the benchmark on which the existing borrower’s future Equated Monthly Instalments (EMI) will be computed. However, one can always make regular partial prepayments in order to reduce the burden of interest.

With the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) expected to hike the benchmark key repo rate in its fourth bi-monthly monetary policy review later during the week, the State Bank of India has reportedly hiked the marginal cost of funds based lending rate (MCLR) by 5 basis points (bps) or 0.05% across tenures. The new rates on the home loans will be effective from 01 October 2018. While the existing customers will have to pay the same rate on their housing loans until the reset clause is specified by the bank, new home loan borrowers will now have to pay a higher interest rate on their home loans. The MCLR on one-year loan tenures now stands at 8.50%. The one-year MCLR is the benchmark rate on which all the SBI housing loans are pegged. The RBI is expected to make an announcement on another hike on 05 October 2018 following its monetary policy review. The central bank has increased the key repo rate by over 50 basis points in the previous two policy review meetings. With the weakening rupee and rising crude prices weighing on the nation’s inflation crisis, the RBI is expected to hike the key repo rate by 25 basis points once again.
4 October 2018
The State Bank of India has raised its benchmark lending rates or Marginal Cost of funds based Lending Rates (MCLR) for various tenors by 20 basis points (bps) or 0.2%. The new rates will be applicable with effect from 01 September 2018. MCLR rates from both overnight and one-month tenures now stand at 8.1%. Following the same line, MCLR rates for one-year and three year tenors have also been raised by 0.2% to stand at 8.45% and 8.65% respectively. The changes in MCLR rates was made a month after the Reserve Bank of India revised its key repo rate in its bi-monthly monetary policy review. The repo rate is defined as the rate at which the RBI lends money to the banks.
3 September 2018
The State Bank of India has decided to increase the MCLR rates for all tenures by 10 basis points which equates to a 0.10% increase effective from June 1, 2018. Increase in Marginal Cost of Lending Rate or MCLR would mean that the person applying for the home loan will have to pay a higher interest rate until SBI decides to decrease the margin on loans to negate it. The RBI is set to lay down its bi-monthly monetary policy on June 6. The MCLR rates have been increased for the second time in under a year. The last increase was made in March.
For the people who have already taken a home loan, the hike in the MCLR rates will change the EMI to be paid. It will depend on when the reset date is. A reset date is a point in time from when the interest rate is adjusted for the borrower which is usually 6 months or a year. The new EMI amount to be paid will be determined based on the margin that will come into effect from the reset date and the new MCLR rates set by the bank.
4 June 2018
Soon after hiking its marginal cost of funds-based lending rates (MCLR) by up to 25 basis points (bps), the State Bank of India – India’s largest bank – has increased its base rate (BR) and benchmark prime lending rate (BPLR) by 5 bps with effect from April 1, 2018.
On the other hand, Allahabad Bank has announced reduction in its lending rates with effect from April 2, 2018. While it has lowered its base rate to 9.15%, its BPLR has been cut to 13.40% from 13.85 per annum. This seems to be both bad and good news for customers. While SBI loans may become costlier going ahead, the EMIs may come down in the case of Allahabad Bank for its loans linked to the base rate. Some industry experts, however, said that the current changes in the base rates do not seem to be aimed at making the loans costlier or cheaper. Instead banks seem to be aliening their base rates to their MCLR as both are slated to be linked now, as per the RBI policy.
