Further, the interest rate applicable to non-salaried borrowers used to be 0.15 percent higher than the interest rate applicable to salaried borrowers.

SBI said that this time around, we have made the offers more inclusive and the offers are available to all categories of borrowers, irrespective of the loan amount and profession of the borrower. The 6.70% home loan offer is also applicable on balance transfer cases.
SBI Managing Director (Retail and Digital Banking), CS Setty said, “We believe zero processing fees and concessional interest rates will make home-buying more affordable during the festive season.
