A day after its release from the Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) framework, state-run Allahabad Bank on Wednesday said it will cut marginal cost of funds based lending rates (MCLR) across all tenors up to three years with effect from March 1, which will result in its home, car and other retail loans getting cheaper.
"The Asset Liability Management Committee of the bank has reviewed the existing Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rates (MCLRs) and decided for a downward revision of MCLR by 10 basis points (bps) for all the tenors," the bank said in a regulatory filing.
