Union Bank of India reduces interest rates on agricultural loans

06 Jul 2012 Evaluate

Union Bank of India has reduced the interest rate for various categories under agriculture by up to 175 basis points (bps) effective from July 01, 2012. This step is another effort by the bank to boost credit flow to the agriculture sector. The bank has also slashed the interest rate for lending to self help groups (SHGs) by 175 bps.

Besides, the bank will offer crop loans, investment credit and loans for allied activities by up to Rs 50,000 at base rate only. The present base rate of the bank is 10.50%.

The bank for the benefit of farmers is also extending credit under crop loan up to double the scale of finance fixed by District Level Technical Committee. The bank offers 3% interest subvention upfront for loans up to 3 lakh to the farmers for repayment of dues in time for both pre and post harvest finance.

Moreover, in a bid to provide additional touch points and facilitate the branches to reach out to the farmers with the help of business facilitators, the bank has already launched a new scheme ‘Project Hariyali’.
