pnb-reduces-home-loan-above-rs-50-lakh

The day after the SBI and Bank of Baroda announced the festival’s seasonal bonanza, the Punjab National Bank on Friday lowered home loan interest rates for above Rs 50 lakhs by 0.50% to 6.60%.

PNB announced in a statement that interest rates on home loans are now offered at 6.60 percent, regardless of the maximum limit. In a series of proposals issued by the Punjab National Bank during the festival season, PNB has lowered the interest rate above Rs 50 lakhs by 50 basis points (0.50%). The rate will be linked to the creditworthiness of the applicant.

The bank said in a statement, “This rate also applies to balance transfer cases and is the lowest among public sector banks.” 

Waiver on Processing fees-

In addition, it will offer additional home loans at a reasonable interest rate for both balance transfer cases and existing ones.

PNB said it is already offering a complete waiver of service / maintenance fees for home, car, private, myProperty and gold loans as part of its Festival Bonanza offering. One of the lender said, home loans will be more affordable for customers due to full exemption from service fees and a low interest rate starting at 6.60 percent.

While the auto/car loans start at 7.15 percent, personal loans start at 8.95 percent, one of the lowest in the industry. Earlier in the day, PNB also reduced its externally attached RLLR by 0.25 percent to 6.55 percent. “The repo-linked lending rate (RLLR) has changed from 6.80 percent to 6.55 percent from September 17, 2021 (Friday).”

RLLR was introduced in October 2019. It is a personal or retail loan based on a variable interest rate that is linked to external benchmarks such as Reserve Bank of India (RBI) repo rate.

India: ICICI Bank eyes growth after strong Q4

ICICI Bank, India’s No. 2 lender, posted on Friday a larger-than-expected 31 percent rise in quarterly profit and forecast a higher growth rate for domestic loans and stable asset quality for the coming year.

Loan demand in India is expected to pick up after the central bank last week cut its benchmark lending rate for the first time in three years to help revive sagging economic growth. The Reserve Bank of India has projected loan growth for Indian banks for fiscal year 2013 at 17 percent against 16 percent in the previous year.

ICICI expects its domestic loans to grow 20 percent in the year that began in April from 17 percent last year, driven by demand from companies for working capital, home and car loans, Chief Executive Chanda Kochhar told reporters.

“These numbers may give us comfort to keep what we have (but) we don’t have any particular plans to increase our stakes. We have concerns about the India story in general,” said Olsson Jan-Olov, portfolio manager of Carnegie Emerging Markets at Sweden, which owns ICICI shares.

“We have been a little hesitant towards increasing positions in India due to the overriding political and macro economic situation.” Earlier this week, Standard & Poor’s cut India’s credit rating outlook to negative from stable on hefty fiscal and current account deficits and political paralysis in Asia’s third-largest economy.

The negative outlook jeopardises India’s long-term rating of BBB-, the lowest investment grade rating. Indian banks are actively easing terms on loans for companies, as high interest rates and an economic slowdown has hurt the ability of some to repay loans on time. Power, textile, aviation, construction and real estate are the hardest hit sectors.

ICICI, which is also listed in New York and competes with State Bank of India and HDFC Bank, sees a “very small” and “minimal” pipeline for corporate debt restructurings, Kochhar said.

SBI May Give Reason to Cheer

Bank to every Indian

After the budget 2010, SBI brings a gleam of hope for home loan borrowers as it plans an extension in the home loan relief plan.

SBI, the State Bank of India, one of the largest lenders in India, has indicated that although there would be slight changes, but it may still consider continuing its much-talked-about 8 % home loan scheme. One of the top officials of SBI said that even though they bring modifications in their products, which tune with their liquidity position normally they don’t kill any product. However, the banking major have not yet formally announced the extension of the bid whose tenure gets over on March 31.

The corporations like ICICI Bank and mortgage lender Housing Development Finance Corporation which are the major competitors of SBI also copied this scheme of SBI but later withdrew them because the RBI disapproved such products and drying liquidity.

But according to the officials it is one of the best home-loan plans in the market since it assisted other sectors to grow like cement and steel. It is a very successful offer. It also tremendously contributed to the overall economic growth.

However, the ‘teaser’ schemes were not liked by the Reserve Bank since it was related with the ability of customers to pay the rates of interest when it got back to the usual level after the period of this scheme expires.

RBI Deputy Governors, Usha Thorat and K C Chakrabarty, had openly expressed their concerns about the scheme. “Teaser rates…
