What is Base Rate?It is the minimum rate of interest that a bank is allowed to
charge from its customers. RBI rule stipulates that no bank
can offer loans at a rate lower than Base Rate to any of its
customers. Base rate as the name suggest, will be the base
interest rate applicable to the borrowers. Even though
banks are restricted from lending below the Base rate, in
certain situations they can do so, but only for short term
loans.

Components of Base rate:There are four components to calculate Base rate:
1. Cost of Deposits
2. Negative carry on CRR and SLR 3. Overheads cost
4. Return on Net worth.

yEvolution of Interest rate:
The evolution of Interest Rates on loans and advances inIndia can broadly be classified in to two phases viz.Regulated and Deregulated regimes.
1. Regulated Interest Rate Regime:
Till late 1980s, the interest rate structure on loans andadvances extended by commercial banks was largely administered by the RBI and banks did not have any freedom to fix the interest on loan products, irrespective of the nature of advance and the amount lent. Banks weresimply advised to follow the interest rate prescription of RBI, primarily to ensure the flow of adequate credit to thedesired productive sectors of the economy.

2.Deregulated Interest Rate Regime:RBI has initiated a number of steps to simplify andrationalize the complex interest rate structure as wellas to bring in transparency in the loan pricing system.
The important changes in lending rates post reformera are as under:

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/impact-of-shift-from-prime-lending-rate-to 9/30
Evolutions:Year Key changes
Sep 1990 The structure of lending rates was rationalized into six size-wise slabs. The slabs were reduced
to four in the year 1992 and further reduced to three in the year 1993. Of these, banks were
free to set interest rates on loans of over Rs.2 lakh with minimum lending rates prescribed by
RBI.
Oct 1994 Lending rates for loans with credit limits of over Rs.2 lakh deregulated. Banks were required
to declare their Prime lending rates (PLRs).
Feb 1997 Banks were allowed to prescribe separate PLRs and spreads over PLRs, both for loan and cash
credit components.
Oct 1997 For term loans of 3 years and above, separate Prime Term Lending Rates (PTLRs) were
required to be announced by banks.
April 1998 PLR converted as a ceiling rate on loans up to Rs.2 lakh.
April 1999 Tenor-linked Prime Lending Rates (TPLRs) introduced.
Oct 1999 Banks were given flexibility to charge interest rates without reference to the PLR in respect of certain categories of loans/credit.
April 2000 Banks allowed charging fixed/floating rate on their lending for credit limits of over Rs.2 lakh.
April 2001 The PLR ceased to be the floor rate for loans above Rs.2 lakh and banks were allowed to lend
at sub-PLR rate for loans above Rs.2 lakhs.
April 2002 Dissemination of range of interest rates through the Reserve Banks website was introduced.
April 2003 Benchmark PLR (BPLR) system introduced and tenor-linked PLRs discontinued.

Impact on existing loan holders / borrowers:
Even though the base rate is unlikely to have an immediateimpact, it has the potential of significantly reducing your
outflow if the interest rates are reduced in the future. This
is because, the base rate will be revised every quarter and
when interest rates fall, your loan rate will also go down.
Take an example to understand the impact of decrease in
interest rates under the PLR and Base Rate systems.
Assuming that your home loan is for Rs. 25L for 10 years@ 10 percent p.a. Interest rate is PLR plus 200 basis
points.

PLR is not revised.

Case 2: Using Base Rate System. The base rate at the time of taking the loan is 8
percent. It is reduced to 7.0 percent after 2 years. So, the interest rate on the loan
is revised to 9.0 percent.
Total Interest paid using the base rate: Rs. 13.55L
The diff erence between PLR and Base Rate above example 1.05L, so due to change in
interest rate the customer is able to save Rs 1.05L.

Conclusion:
y The Base Rate is nothing but old wine in a new bottle. The concept of a prime lending rate(PLR) for banks was introduced in October 1994 for loans above Rs 2 lakh. It was the rate at
which a bank¶s best or µprime borrowers¶ would get funds. All others would get it at a mark up
above the PLR. And even if a bank gave funds to a firm below its PLR, it only meant that it
was extremely credit worthy: sub-prime lending in India was the exact opposite of what it has
come to mean in the post-financial crisis world in the West. All this also meant that the PLR
lost its meaning; borrowers complained that the declared PLR of a bank meant nothing; you
could get funds below or above it.
However, the base rate system will not be applicable for the following type of loans:
1. Agricultural Loans
2. Loans given to own employees
3. Loans against deposit
4. Export Credit
Base rate system is arrived at taking into the account, the cost of deposits and cost of keeping
aside cash to meet CLR and SLR . It is convenient for the banks to adjust the lending rates
after the changes on policy rates by the RBI.

Main advantages of Base rate system:
y More transparency for customers in knowing about base rate as it is based on cost of funds.
y Stoppage of sub-prime loans to bigger corporate.
y Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) may get better rates. TheSMEs and small borrowers are subsidizing the corporate loans.
y Deregulation of interest rates as banks will stop lending at lower rates to loans below Rs 2 lakhs. RBI has given freedom to banks tocharge commercial rates for loans below Rs 2 lakh at rates linked to
base rate. With this, RBI
wants to increase the credit flow to small borrowers.
y Increase in liquidity of banks. As loans are not doled out on sub- prime rates, more money is left with banks.

Suggestions:
y Deregulation will have another major advantage in that it willhelp improve the monetary transmission.
y This (the base rate model) would help more scientific bargainingrather than bargaining without any base.
y This will also ensure that banks can charge their customersaccording to their risk appetite.
y The new system prevents banks to lend below their base rateeven to top-rated clients.
y A borrower will have to pay would be the base rate plus theborrower-specific charges like premium related to maturity of loans.
