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.
