Key Concerns The base rate regulation may put pressure on the loans given at sub PLR rates. If substitute mode of financing comes up, so the bank might see corporate opting for these lower cost financing options. The base rate regulation will also dampen the margins since yield on loans of more than 12.5% will decrease. SKP Securities Ltd www.skpmoneywise.com Page 8 of 11
