    Lending Rates : -Base Rate : -

    From July 01, 2010 the new Base rate system replace theexisting system of benchmark prime lending rates (BPLR).

    The formula for calculating the base rate will take into accountthe cost of deposits, cost of complying with CRR and SLR

    requirements, and the need to retain a profit margin. Plus there will be a markup depending on the cost of operation

    for a particular type of product and premiums for credit risk andtenor of loans. This need not raise rates for small loans as thenew base rates are likely to be lower than BPLRs. More

    important, it is argued that as non-bank credit is invariablycostlier, making small loans affordable for banks will raise thesupply of such credit and thus be beneficial on the balance tosmall borrowers. To set floating rate loans, the new base rates asalso external benchmarks can be used, though the rate should not

    fall below the base rate.
