What is RLLR?
Repo-linked lending rate (RLLR) is the interest rate at which banks extend loans to customers, based on the repo rate set by RBI. The term 'repo-linked lending rate' refers to an interest rate that is linked to the repo rate. An RBI circular issued in October 2019 mandates that banks link their retail loans to external benchmark lending rates, known as E-BLR. Consequently, the repo rate has become the benchmark for most banks.
