In the Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rate, the bank determines its minimum interest rate by considering factors such as cost of funds, operating costs and profit margin. However, when the RBI changes the repo rate, it also affects the MCLR.

Let us tell you that MCLR is directly linked to the loan rates. As per RBI’s instructions, the bank cannot give any loan, be it a home loan or a car loan, at rates lower than MCLR. If the bank reduces the MCLR, then the loan rates will automatically decrease. If the bank increases the MCLR, then your EMI also increases. Home loans, personal loans and car loans come under its purview.
