Impact of RBI Repo Rate Changes on Kotak Mahindra Bank Home Loan Rate

Since Kotak Mahindra Bank's RLLR-linked rate is directly benchmarked to the RBI repo rate (currently 5.25%), any change in the repo rate is reflected in the bank's home loan pricing. At the June 2026 MPC meeting, the RBI kept the repo rate unchanged. The next RBI Monetary Policy Committee meeting is scheduled for August 2026.
