SBI personal loan interest rates are linked to the 2-year Marginal Cost of Funds based Lending Rate (MCLR), which stands at 9.05% as of 14 March 2025. The final interest rate is calculated by adding a spread ranging from 1.25% to 6.25% over this base rate.
Consequently, the effective personal loan interest rate offered by SBI falls between 10.30% and 15.30%, depending on factors such as the borrower's credit score, the type of employer, and the specific loan scheme chosen.
Do keep in mind that your SBI personal loan EMI depends on a host of factors such as loan amount, interest rate, repayment tenure. That is why a higher loan or rate means a higher EMI. You can use SBI's official EMI calculator available on the SBI website to get quick estimates. Credit score: A credit score of over 750 can help you secure lower interest rates. Employment type: Government and defence employees may receive better rates. Monthly income: Higher consistent income can improve your eligibility criteria. Employer category: Working in PSU or Category 'A' firms can help with better offers. Loan amount & tenure: Larger loans or longer terms can influence the final rate.

India readies fresh line of credit for Maldives as PM Modi prepares to visit
India has a long history of offering financial and developmental assistance to the Maldives. It has extended multiple lines of credit in recent years read more India is preparing to extend a new line of credit to the Maldives, potentially finalising the agreement during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's upcoming visit on July 25–26, Economic Times cited people familiar with the matter as saying. The visit coincides with Maldives National Day and is expected to see the inauguration of several India-funded projects. The development comes at a time when the Maldives is grappling with economic headwinds. Modi's engagements during the two-day trip are expected to highlight India's role in supporting the archipelago's infrastructure and capacity-building efforts, which have taken on added urgency amid the country's ongoing fiscal challenges. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD India, Maldives, and the long credit line India has a long history of offering financial and developmental assistance to the Maldives. It has extended multiple lines of credit in recent years, alongside funding a range of high-impact community development projects tailored to the priorities of the Maldivian government and its people. To date, 56 such projects have been sanctioned, with 14 already completed and inaugurated. These schemes span education, healthcare, sanitation, and local governance and are emblematic of India's grassroots-level engagement in the country. In May, New Delhi provided critical support by rolling over a $50 million treasury bill as emergency budgetary assistance to the Maldives. The measure was designed to shore up the country's financial position amid rising concerns over debt sustainability. Since March 2019, India has helped facilitate a series of such treasury bill subscriptions by the State Bank of India. These have been extended annually, interest-free, through a special government-to-government mechanism, offering an economic lifeline to India's strategically located maritime neighbour. The treasury bill support, rolled over most recently in May, represents one of several tools through which India continues to provide fiscal stability to the Maldives. As Modi's visit approaches, the latest line of credit is expected to reinforce that commitment and further consolidate India's influence in the Indian Ocean region.

Prateek Agrawal bets on renewables, EVs and defence for long-term market outperformance
"One observation is that today, even though return on assets (ROAs) might vary, return on equity (ROEs) across banks are becoming quite similar. Some may have lower ROAs but higher leverage, especially if they're seen as government-backed entities. If ROEs are converging, then over time, valuations should also converge—that's the idea," says Prateek Agrawal, MD & CEO, MOAMC. ADVERTISEMENT What is your assessment of the Indian banking space right now? Let's focus on the larger banks—SBI with its QIP, and of course, what we've seen so far from Axis, HDFC Bank, and ICICI Bank. Prateek Agrawal: In terms of the composition of their books, the banks are starting to look quite similar. Even in terms of growth, there is a convergence happening. Regarding capitalisation strategies, earlier we used to think that PSUs were reluctant to raise capital—they would wait until the last minute. In contrast, private sector banks raised capital proactively when it was available, which enabled them to grow for the first time, we're seeing a PSU bank take that approach, and I believe it will work well for them. In terms of execution, some banks have gone through regime changes, consolidations, mergers, and so they are currently in the assimilation phase. Those that went through this earlier are now having a better run in the market, which is also reflected in their stock performance. One observation is that today, even though return on assets (ROAs) might vary, return on equity (ROEs) across banks are becoming quite similar. Some may have lower ROAs but higher leverage, especially if they're seen as government-backed entities. If ROEs are converging, then over time, valuations should also converge—that's the idea. Let's move to your area of expertise—the AMC space. We've seen significant investor interest in some of the listed players, and SEBI has been actively pushing the long-term investment agenda. Meanwhile, broking companies are facing their own challenges. From an investor's perspective, how do you view both these sectors? What's driving investor interest? Prateek Agrawal: Let me put it this way—India used to be a country of savers. If people had surpluses, they would put it into fixed deposits across various tenures. Now, India is increasingly becoming a country of investors. Surpluses are flowing into the markets, which supports the entire financial ecosystem. Brokers facilitate transactions, and AMCs receive the investment inflows. Broking is a transaction-based business and tends to be more volatile. AMCs, on the other hand, operate on an AUM model, which is steadier. So it depends on the investor's risk appetite—brokers may offer higher growth potential, while AMCs offer stability. ADVERTISEMENT As far as AMCs go, we are fortunate that many of the larger players are extremely disciplined. They are managing to grow AUMs while maintaining margins—a very difficult feat. With such a strong top order, the whole industry can grow profitably. Despite being fragmented—the largest AMC only holds about 12–13% market share in equity—the industry remains disciplined. Over the long term, there's definitely money to be made by investing in good looking at brokers—they come in two formats: brick-and-mortar and online. Online brokers that only focus on broking benefit from the influx of new traders and the volume of transactions. But if you look at them as tech platforms, there's even more potential. They already have a large investor base and can cross-sell products like loans and insurance. Others, like UPI players, have built reach by burning cash; here, these platforms are profitable from the start. If you see them as tech companies, the long-term outlook changes. ADVERTISEMENT Ultimately, it depends on the company's strategy and how the investor views it. But broadly, we believe capital market plays offer more potential today compared to traditional lenders. That's a theme you'll likely find across most of our portfolios. I was going through your latest note where you've said it's still a time for alpha. Where do you see the potential pockets for alpha generation in this market? Prateek Agrawal: Our belief is that markets follow earnings growth. To generate alpha, you need sectors where earnings growth can significantly outpace the market over several years. ADVERTISEMENT For example, in the 1990s, software offered such opportunities. Then, from the early 2000s to about five or six years ago, private banks delivered exceptional excess returns. In a similar way, we think capital markets, new tech, electronic manufacturing, and some parts of the defence sector could deliver strong growth. Defence in particular is benefiting from higher spending and and emerging sectors like EVs and data centres also have great potential. The common thread across these sectors is that they're new, high-growth, and not directly tied to the broader economy's growth, which typically maps to index-level earnings. These sectors can deliver growth far above index averages and sustain that growth for a long time. That combination is what you need to generate alpha. ADVERTISEMENT These opportunities are especially accessible for a mid-sized house like ours. Many of our funds are smaller and more nimble, allowing us to discover and invest in such niches effectively. (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel)
