SBI has increased MCLR a day before

State Bank of India (State Bank of India or SBI) increased the Marginal Cost of Fund Based Lending Rates (MCLR) on January 15, 2023.

SBI has increased MCLR by 0.10 percent. However, the bank has increased the MCLR for only one year. Most of the retail loans are based on this MCLR.

With this step of SBI, the borrowers taking new loans based on MCLR will not only get the loan costlier than

the current ones but also the EMI will increase for the existing borrowers who have taken loans based on MCLR.

This increase will not affect the EMI of borrowers based on benchmark lending rates other than MCLR.

This is the second increase in MCLR by SBI within a month. Earlier, on December 15, 2022, the bank had increased all loan rates, including MCLR, External Benchmark Based Lending Rate (EBLR),

Repo Based Lending Rate (RLLR), Benchmark Prime Lending Rate (BPLR), and Base Rate.

Currently, SBI’s EBLR is 8.90 percent + CRP + BSP. At the same time, RLLR is 8.50 percent + CRP. Apart from this, the BPLR is 14.15 percent, and the base rate is 9.40 percent.
