SBI to incentivize green home loan takers
Mint Mumbai
|June 20, 2023
State Bank of India (SBI) is looking to reintroduce a scheme that will encourage borrowers to buy units in green housing projects, offering them a 10-25 basis points (bps) discount on the prevailing interest rates, a person aware of the development said
-
SBI had earlier implemented a similar home loan scheme, but discontinued it in 2018, the person said seeking anonymity.
In 2009-10, the state-owned lender launched the ‘SBI Green Home’ initiative to encourage developers build environment-friendly residential projects, as per the disclosures in its annual report for the financial year.
The proposed plan is to evaluate environmental, social, and corporate governance, or ESG-compliant builders, and offer them and homebuyers cheaper loans, he added.
