Private banks’ rates higher
Private-sector banks’ interest rates are largely in the 7.70-8.35 per cent range, higher than that of PSUs.
ICICI Bank and HSBC offer loans at 7.70 per cent interest, while HDFC Bank is more competitive at 7.90 per cent.
Axis Bank is on the higher side, starting at 8.35 per cent.
Among housing finance companies (HFCs):
LIC Housing Finance and ICICI Home Finance are starting at 7.50 per cent onwards, matching public sector peers.
PNB Housing Finance is priced higher, with rates in the 8.25–11.50 per cent range.
Why rates matter now
With the Reserve Bank of India keeping repo rates unchanged, most lenders have been maintaining stable home loan rates. For borrowers, this is a good time to reassess their loans and check whether refinancing could bring savings.
Even a 0.25 per cent reduction on a Rs 50 lakh loan over 20 years can save borrowers over Rs 3 lakh in interest.
