"We have introduced a new external benchmark rate linked to six month T-bill rate- External Benchmark T-Bill Rate (EBTR) which is 6.50 per cent as on date. The new rates will be applicable to prime corporate and PSU customers," the bank said.

From October last year, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had mandated banks to link all new floating rate personal or retail loans and floating rate loans to MSMEs to an external benchmark .

The RBI allowed banks to link their interest rates to repo rate or three-month or six-month treasury bill.

The Pune-based bank further announced reduction in its marginal cost of funds based lending rates (MCLR) across all tenors by 10 basis points from Thursday.

For overnight, one month, three months and six months, MCLR have been reduced to 7.40 per cent, 7.50 per cent, 7.60 per cent and 7.70 per cent, respectively.

Last month, the bank reduced its MCLR by up to 25 bps across all tenors. HV MRMR
