Home Loan: Canara Bank, BOB and PNB have given good news to the customers. Big government banks like Bank of Baroda, Punjab National Bank (PNB) and Canara Bank have cut their MCLR i.e. Marginal Cost of Funds-Based Lending Rate. This can reduce interest rates on floating-rate loans like home loans, personal loans and auto loans, which can reduce people’s EMI or end the loan quickly.

What is MCLR?

MCLR is the minimum interest rate at which banks give loans. This interest rate is decided on the basis of the bank’s funding cost (such as interest paid on deposits). When banks reduce MCLR, the loan takers get direct benefit from it.
