The Marginal Cost of Funds-based Lending Rate (MCLR) is the minimum interest rate banks charge for loans. It sets the lower limit for lending rates unless revised by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).

The RBI introduced MCLR in 2016 to ensure fair pricing for borrowers. Borrowers with loans linked to MCLR will see changes in their loan EMIs when MCLR rates fluctuate. For those with loans taken before 2016, the base rate or Benchmark Prime Lending Rate (BPLR) still applies.

When MCLR decreases, EMIs for loans such as home, personal, and business loans also fall. ALSO READ | HDFC Bank lowers fixed deposit interest rates on these tenures.
