IOB increases benchmark lending rate by 0.05%

-

State-run Indian Overseas Bank (IOB) on Friday raised its benchmark lending rate by 5 basis points, a move that will make all its loans costlier. The bank has decided to increase the marginal cost of funds based lending rate (MCLR) by 0.05 per cent across tenors, effective November 10, IOB said in a statement. MCLR for a one-year tenor will rise to 8.75 per cent from 8.7 per cent. Most of its retail loans are benchmarke­d against one-year MCLR. The rate for a two-year tenor has been fixed at 8.85 per cent as against the existing 8.8 per cent, while it is 8.95 per cent for a threeyear period.
