New Delhi: State Bank of India (SBI), the country's biggest lender, has raised the Marginal Cost of Funds-based Lending Rate (MCLR) by 10 basis points (0.1 percentage point), across tenors, making most of the consumer loans costlier.

This is the third time in a row that the bank has increased MCLR.

The benchmark one-year tenor MCLR, which is used to price most consumer loans such as auto and personal, is now pegged higher at 8.95 percent against the earlier rate of 8.85 percent, according to the information posted on its website.

The three-year MCLR is 9.10 percent, while the two-year is now 9.05 per cent, up 10 basis points.

Among others, the rates of one-month, three-month and six-month tenors are in the range of 8.45-8.85 percent. The MCLR on overnight tenor will be 8.20 percent against 8.10 percent.

The new rates are effective from August 15, 2024, it said.
