Floating rate retail loans get cheaper
- Banks including State Bank of India, Punjab National Bank, Bank of Baroda, Union Bank of India, and Bank of India have reduced their external benchmark lending rates (EBLRs) by the same percentage as the repo rate cut.
- This reduction in lending rates could lead to a decrease in equated monthly installment (EMI) for borrowers and is expected to incite fierce competition among banks to attract business.
- For example, SBI has lowered its EBLR and its Repo Linked Lending Rate (RLLR) from their previous values to new, lower rates.
- While transmission of the repo rate cut to lending rates is smooth, deposit rates are not expected to change due to liquidity constraints and increased yields on corporate bonds.
