The Marginal Cost of Funds-based Lending Rate (MCLR) is an internal benchmark based on the lender's marginal cost of funds. While personal loans are typically priced above MCLR, changes in MCLR indirectly affect personal loan rates over time. Tata Capital's current MCLR values are updated periodically and published on the website. Rate resets on MCLR-linked products happen every 6-12 months.
Any change in the MCLR affects the overall cost of borrowing for individuals. When the MCLR is lower, loan interest on personal loans also goes down, which results in lower EMIs. On the other hand, a higher MCLR means higher interest rates and increased EMIs.
The MCLR linked to your loan decides how often your interest rate can change. For example, if your loan is linked to a 1-year MCLR, the lender will review your interest rate once every year and update it based on the latest MCLR at that time.
Annual percentage rate (APR) is the yearly loan interest on personal loans and all other charges that you must pay on the loan. Apart from the personal loan rates, the additional charges include processing or service charges, documentation fees, optional insurances, and annual maintenance or handling fees. The APR is always higher than the current loan interest rates for personal loans.
The factors that affect the APR include your credit score, loan amount and tenure, lender-specific policies, and your income and employment stability.

Interest on your personal loan can be calculated using two methods. Most lenders including Tata Capital use the reducing balance method as it is fairer to the borrower.
Interest on your personal loan can be calculated using two methods. Most lenders including Tata Capital use the reducing balance method as it is fairer to the borrower.
Interest is calculated on the outstanding principal after each EMI payment. As you repay, the interest component reduces every month. This is fairer to the borrower and reflects the true cost of borrowing more accurately.
The interest rate you receive on a personal loan is not one-size-fits-all. Multiple factors combine to determine the rate offered, and understanding them helps you get the best terms.
Higher scores unlock lower rates. A CIBIL of 750+ typically gets the best rates. Below 700, rates rise significantly.
Clean past repayment record on other loans and credit cards signals lower risk and unlocks better rates.
Higher and more stable income supports both larger loans and better rates.
Applicants from well-known corporates, MNCs, or government positions often get preferential rates.
Lower existing debt burden means more headroom for a new loan, unlocking better terms.
Rates and charges mentioned are indicative and subject to change based on RBI policy and market conditions. Please refer to the sanction letter for actual terms applicable to your loan.
You can negotiate your personal loan’s interest rate based on the following factors-
