HDFC Bank hikes lending rates by 0.35%; Loan EMIs to go up
Mumbai, June 7: HDFC Bank, India's largest private sector lender, has hiked its marginal cost of funds-based lending rates (MCLR) across all tenures by 0.35 percent or 35 basis points, effective June 7.
The equated monthly instalment (EMI) on a variety of loans, including housing, vehicle, and personal loans, will increase with the hike in MCLR rates.
This is HDFC Bank's second rate hike after the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) raised the policy repo rate by 40 basis points in early May.
On May 7, just a few days after the RBI raised the policy repo rate, HDFC Bank increased the MCLR by 25 basis points.
