What is the Impact of MCLR on EMI of Axis Bank Home Loan Borrowers?

After April 1, 2016, all bank loans (including home loans) are linked to the bank's MCLR with or without a mark-up or spread (bank margin). Earlier, they were linked to the bank's base rate. All banks are required to disclose their MCLR each month.

Banks generally hike MCLR, whenever there is a hike in Repo Rate by the RBI. Banks may increase MCLR due to surging bond yields and higher provisioning requirements, even when the RBI has not hiked Repo Rate.

Home Loan Interest Rate can be equal to the MCLR or have a 'margin' or 'mark-up' or 'spread' but can never be lower than MCLR.

Home Loan Interest Rate is linked to the bank's MCLR. If MCLR goes up, the home loan rates will also go up. Home Loan Interest Rate will not be impacted by hike in MCLR only if banks reduce the mark-up (margin) in the home loan. If MCLR goes down, the home loan rates will also go down.

For MCLR-linked home loans, the rate is reset after 6 or 12 months according to the agreement between the borrower and the bank. The interest rate applicable on the reset date will become the new rate on which the future EMI's will be calculated.


What should Base Rate Home Loan Borrowers do?

Home Loan Interest Rate of old home loan borrowers (who had taken home loans before April 1, 2016) are linked to the base rates of the banks. Hence the EMI which they are paying is also linked to base rate. Banks have always remained very sluggish for passing on the benefits of RBI rate cuts to the borrowers.

Now after April 1, 2016, Home Loan Interest Rate is linked to MCLR (Marginal Cost of funds based Lending Rate) for home loan borrowers in order to resolve the problems of the Base Rate regime.

It will be beneficial for them to switch to MCLR linked rate if the difference between what they are paying (under base rate) and what the bank is offering (under MCLR) is significant. So they must switch to MCLR linked rates, if outstanding loan is high and the remaining tenure is also long.

In that situation, Base Rate Borrowers have following two options:

(1) Switch to MCLR linked home loan with the same bank: It is beneficial, in case the bank is charging a nominal switching fee such as 0.50% or less on outstanding amount.

(2) Transfer the loan to another bank on MCLR: It is feasible, if new bank has waived off processing fee (which they generally do in order to attract the customer and increase their business) or is charging very less processing fee and legal and transfer costs.

The borrower must compare both the above-mentioned options and opt for the one which is more beneficial to them in terms of money saved. It will result not only in reduction of future EMIs but also a huge amount of interest will be saved during remaining tenure.

One may as well continue the loan on base-rate especially if the maturity is near and need not go through the process of conversion.

Further, the Reserve Bank (RBI) is going to link the base rate for loans given by banks to the MCLR from April 1, 2018. Once it happens, the base rate will automatically increase or decrease along with the MCLR without any specific action required for adjustment. This will be very beneficial for the home loan borrowers whose rates (EMIs) are still linked to the base rate.


EMI Payment Methods of Axis Bank Home Loan

You can repay Axis Bank home loan in any of the following methods:

(1) Electronic Clearing Service (ECS): Electronic Clearing System is preferred for faster payments and collections. If you have an account with other bank than Axis Bank then you can use ECS for loan repayment. You will have to fill up a form and submit the same with your bank for debiting EMI every month from your account. In this case, your EMI will be automatically debited every month from your bank account and credited to Axis Bank towards loan repayment instalment.

(2) Standing Instruction (SI): If you maintain your account with Axis Bank, then you can use this method. Under this method, you will have to issue a Standing Instruction to Axis Bank to debit your EMI amount on a due date every month from your Axis Bank account and credit to Axis Bank loan account towards loan repayment instalment. You save a lot of time and energy by giving standing instructions to the bank to carry out the transaction on your behalf each time.

(3) Post-Dated Cheques (PDCs): In this method, you need to submit post-dated EMI cheques to Axis Bank for a certain period of time, which are deposited by the Axis Bank on the due date. This alternative is cumbersome and time-consuming and involve a manual procedure of visiting the Axis Bank in a timely manner.

Points to Note Regarding EMI Payment Methods

  1. A fresh set of PDCs need to be submitted in a timely manner.
  2. Post Dated Cheques are accepted only for non-ECS locations.
  3. It is good to pay your EMIs either through the Standing Instruction or ECS for faster and timely remittance of your loan instalments.

In case of Prepayment of Axis Bank Home Loan, will EMI change?

One can pre-pay Axis Bank Home Loan without any prepayment charges as it allows prepayment at nil charges in case of floating rate home loans. If the borrower makes a prepayment, the outstanding balance of principal amount of his home loan reduces. Then in that case he has following 2 options:

  1. He can continue with the existing and reduce the loan tenure
  2. He can reduce the EMI and keep the loan tenure the same

Out of above 2 options, first option is more beneficial for the borrower as he pay less interest to the bank as the pay off home loan will be faster.


Ways to Reduce your Axis Bank Home Loan EMI

  • Negotiate with your banker on lower interest rate
  • Apply for longer tenure
  • Give maximum amount as down payment
  • Pre-pay loan amount
  • Switch to another bank/ FI offering lower interest rate
