HDFC Bank Eases Loan Burden with 2-Year MCLR Cut, Other Rates UnchangedMCLR, i.e. Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rate, is the interest rate at which a bank offers loans to its customers. This limit is decided according to the repo rate of the Reserve Bank of India, i.e. RBI. The Marginal Cost of the Fund-Based Lending Rate is the minimum interest rate a financial institution needs to charge for a specific loan. It dictates the lower limit of the interest rate for a loan. This rate limit is set in stone for borrowers unless specified otherwise by the Reserve Bank of India. The RBI introduced the MCLR in 2016.
