Mumbai: Bank of India (BoI) is set to become the latest entrant in the home loan rate war, after biggies like SBI and HDFC, by offering 8 per cent fixed rate for the first two years.
BoI is planning to offer 8 per cent fixed rate for loans up to Rs 30 lakh and is expected to come with an announcement by the end of this month, the bank's Executive Director, B.A. Prabhakar, told PTI here.
"We plan to announce this scheme (8 per cent fixed rate for two years) probably by the end of this month. This would be applicable for loans up to Rs 30 lakh," Prabhakar said.

After the offer period, the rates will be calculated on a floating basis, based on the then benchmark prime lending rate.
With this, BoI will be joining the club of other leading banks in the country like SBI, ICICI Bank, Kotak IDBI Bank and home loan financier, Housing Development Finance Corporation, who have already come with similar schemes.
