|

Leading Indian lenders, the State Bank of India (SBI) and HDFC Bank have increased their marginal cost of funds based lending rate (MCLR) with effect from 10 December and 7 December respectively. MCLR is the minimum interest rate set by a bank, below which it cannot lend, except for some selected cases allowed by the RBI. It works as an internal benchmark for the bank to set interest rates when it lends.
