What is MCLR?
Let us tell you that MCLR means Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rate. This is the minimum rate below which no bank can give loans to customers. The more MCLR rates increase, the more the interest also increases. It is mandatory for banks to release their overnight, one month, three month, six month, one year and two year MCLR every month.
Loan Rates Increase
If any bank increases the MCLR rates, it means that the interest rate on marginal cost related loans like home loan, vehicle loan increases. One thing you should keep in mind is that when MCLR increases, the loan interest rate does not increase immediately but the EMI of the loan borrowers increases only on the reset date.
Many banks have increased the rates
