HDFC Bank cuts MCLR lending benchmarks from today by 5-10 basis points: Check detailed rates

Mint 43 min ago·7 Sept 2026, 2:57 pm

HDFC Bank has reduced its Marginal Cost of Based Lending Rate (MCLR) benchmarks by 5 to 10 basis points, effective today. The new rates range from 7.90% to 8.60% depending on the loan tenure. This move is aimed at making new loans slightly cheaper for borrowers whose interest rates are linked to MCLR.

For investors, this rate cut suggests the bank is maintaining a competitive stance in the lending market. It could potentially boost loan demand and improve fee income from related services. However, the impact on net interest margins remains a key factor to monitor.

Investors should watch for the bank's upcoming quarterly results to see how these rate adjustments affect profitability. Broader trends in the banking sector regarding interest rates will also be important to track.
