State Bank of India (SBI), the country’s largest public sector bank is reportedly planning to lower home loan rates for new borrowers and offer a special discount to women. The bank is likely to lower rates by 15-25 basis points (bps) and raise the borrowing limit for loans at the lowest rate.
This move might lead to a revival of interest in the real estate sector, which has been hit by high prices amid a sluggish economy. SBI will charge 10.15% on loans up to Rs 75 lakh and 10.30% on loan amounts higher than that. Women borrowers will get a further 5 bps off.
State Bank of India has reported 35.07% fall in its net profit at Rs 2375.01 crore for the second quarter ended September 30, 2013 as compared to Rs 3658.14 crore for the same quarter in the previous year. However, total income of the bank has increased by 12.88% at Rs 37199.92 crore for quarter under review as compared to Rs 32953.47 crore for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.
