Bank of Maharashtra hikes lending rates
April 19, 2023
According to the statement issued by Bank of Maharashtra, the benchmark one-year MCLR is now 8.50%, up 10 basis points. The majority of consumer loans, including auto, personal, and house loans, are fixed at the one-year rate.
The six-month maturity bucket climbed to 8.40%, while the overnight and one-month MCLRs increased by 0.10 percent each to 7.90% and 8.10%.
Several banks have hiked their MCLR rates recently after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on April 6 announced its key policy rates. Bank of Baroda and Indian Overseas Bank have increased their marginal cost of fund-based lending rates (MCLR), following a hike in the interest rates on loans and deposits by their largest public sector peer SBI.
Last week, Canara Bank hiked marginal cost of funding-based lending rate (MCLR) across all tenors. The new MCLR rates are applicable from 12 April 2023, Canara Bank said.
Canara Bank also added that existing borrowers of the Bank shall have an option to switch over to interest rates linked to MCLR (other than Fixed Rate Loans). Borrowers willing to switch over to the MCLR based interest rate may contact the branch, the bank said.
