What is MCLR?

MCLR i.e. Marginal Cost of Lending Rates is the minimum interest rate below which the bank is not allowed to give a loan. That is, it can be said that this is the minimum interest rate for the bank to give a loan. The Reserve Bank of India implemented MCLR on 1 April 2016 to fix interest rates for loans. The decrease or increase in MCLR has a direct impact on the customers taking loans. Due to the increase in it, now the customers will have to pay more EMI on the loan than before.
