What is MCLR?
MCLR means Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rate. This is the minimum rate below which no bank can give loans to customers. This means that banks cannot give loans to customers below this rate, and the more it increases, the more the interest on the loan will also go up. It is mandatory for banks to declare their overnight, one month, three month, six month, one year and two year MCLR every month.
Increase in MCLR means that interest rates on loans related to marginal cost like home loan, vehicle loan will increase. But keep in mind that when the MCLR rate increases, the interest rates on the loan do not increase immediately. The EMI of the loan borrowers progresses only on the reset date.
