The base interest rate will be arrived at based on the weighted average cost of funds, risk premium, other costs such as administrative expenses and profit margin.
The base interest rate is reviewed periodically by the ALM Committee.
The base interest rate applicable to each loan account will be assessed based on multiple parameters:

Nature and value of securities offered
Customer Risk Profile
Qualifications, earnings stability, financial position
Credit History
Past repayment track record and credit reports
Default Risk
Inherent credit risk in business segments

200 - 1300
basis points
Interest Rate Range

payable monthly
The mark-up over the base rate varies depending on the risk profile of the customer, available security, client's reputation, past track record, and financial standing.
The rates of interest for the same product and tenor availed during same period by different customers need not be standardised but could be different depending upon consideration of any or combination of factors listed above.
The Company shall intimate the borrower loan amount, annualised rate of interest and method of application at the time of sanction of the loan along with the tenure and amount of monthly instalment.
