Loan Interest Rate Hike: EMI burden increased on SBI customers, bank increased MCLR

According to the information given on SBI's website, the new MCLR rates will come into effect from July 15. In such a situation, the EMI of all those people whose loan is linked to MCLR will increase. On the other hand, there will be no increase in EMI for those whose loan is linked to any other benchmark.
After the implementation of the new rates, the one-year MCLR rate has increased to 8.55 percent, which was earlier 8.50 percent. Most of the loans are linked to a one-year MCLR.
