SBI, Union Bank, Bank Of India, PNB Home Loan EMIs: 7 PSU Banks Offer Interest Rates As Low As 8.30%
Ahome loan is one of the best mediums available out there when purchasing your dream house. Buying a property is a very significant financial decision, and is fulfilled with patience and a lot of hard work.
A home loan eliminates the need to have lumpsum cash in your pocket to buy a house, instead, it minimises your burden with the option of equated monthly instalment (EMI).
There are two types of home loan rates such as floating and fixed. Floating rates are beneficial as they change as per the revision in the lending benchmark rates. Currently, banks have linked their home loans to RBI’s policy repo rate. So every cut or hike in policy repo rate will reflect in your home loan rates accordingly.
While RBI has kept the repo rate unchanged since April 2023, the home loan rates have been steady as well, while demand for buying houses has increased.
It is expected that housing sales may even reach a new peak in the coming Lok Sabha elections. On the other hand, with inflation being well within RBI’s upper tolerance limit, it is expected that the rate-hike cycle has bottomed out and rate cuts are likely to take place in 2024.
So far in 2024, there are 7 PSU banks where home loan EMIs are cheaper as interest rates are as low as 8.30%.
