Chor ICICI bank has played its trick again. After increasing the Lending Rates by 400 basis point, its has just reduce the lending rates by 50 basis point for the existing borrowers, despite RBI steep cut of CRR by 350 bp and Repo rate by 250 bp. Shame on
KV Kamath and his team.

LIC is offering interest rate of 8.75% for the first year for home loan. What is the intrest rate in the 2nd and 3rd year. They have not published. For SBI the 2nd year intrest rate is higher than their first year. Just reducing the 1st year interest rate will give some false idea for the customer. Need the interest rate for 2nd and 3rd year for LIC home loan.
