Loan EMIs set to increase: Canara Bank raises lending rates by 5 bps on these tenures; Bank of Baroda MCLRs remain unchanged

Canara Bank has revised its Marginal Cost of Funds Based Lending Rate (MCLR) across all loan tenors. The bank has increased MCLR rates by 5 basis points (bps) for all maturities, as per a BSE filing from the bank. The new Canara Bank MCRLs are effective from May 12, 2026.

Bank of Baroda, however, kept its MCLR rates unchanged, as per its filing on BSE.

Latest Canara Bank lending ratesAccording to Canara Bank’s latest lending rate revision, the overnight MCLR has been increased from 7.85% to 7.90%, while the one-month MCLR has been raised from 7.90% to 7.95%. The one-year MCLR is particularly important because many retail loans such as home, auto and personal loans are linked to this tenure. With the latest revision, the one-year MCLR now stands at 8.75%, up from 8.70% earlier.

Note that borrowers having MCLR-linked floating rate loans may see a rise in their loan interest rates depending on their loan reset date and the terms of the loan agreement.

According to a message on Canara Bank’s website, “The above MCLRs shall be applicable only to new loans/advances sanctioned/first disbursement made on or after May 12, 2026, and those credit facilities renewed/reviewed/reset undertaken and where switchover to MCLR linked interest rate is permitted at the option of the borrower, on or after May 12, 2026.”

What is MCLR?

MCLR is the minimum lending rate below which banks cannot lend, except in certain cases permitted by the Reserve Bank of India. Any increase in MCLR may lead to higher EMIs for borrowers whose loans are linked to this regime.
