Private banks to see faster rate transmission as 91% of floating rate loans linked to EBLR

Economic Times 2 hrs ago·7 Oct 2026, 6:41 pm

Private sector banks are expected to pass on the Reserve Bank of India's recent repo rate hike to borrowers more quickly than their public-sector peers. This is largely because a high percentage of their loan portfolios are linked to external benchmarks, which allows them to adjust interest rates almost immediately with policy changes.

For investors, this development is significant as it improves the banks' ability to manage their net interest margins. However, the ultimate impact on earnings will depend on how quickly these banks can also raise deposit rates to fund their lending activities.
