What is MCLR?

The marginal cost of fund-based lending rate, or MCLR, is a benchmark rate used by banks to determine interest rates on various floating rate loans, including home loans, personal loans, and automobile loans. A decrease in MCLR translates to a potential drop in equated monthly instalments (EMIs) of loans or a shorter loan tenure, benefiting borrowers in the long term.
