The mortgage lender HDFC has increased its retail prime lending rate (RPLR) by 10 basis points as on 31 December 2018. This will make home loans costlier for new borrowers. The new rates range from 8.90 to 9.15 percent and will be effective from today, 1 January 2019. RPLR is the benchmark that HDFC uses to set its adjustable home loan interest rates.
