With no change in the repo rate, any change in the Marginal Cost Based Lending Rate (MCLR) will now depend on bank-specific internal factors. Remember, a bank’s MCLR is determined both via internal factors such as cost of funds and external factors such as repo rate etc.
Usually, home loans linked to MCLR comes with a reset period of either one-year or six months. Thus, even if your bank reduces its MCLR, the reduction will result in lower EMIs only when the reset date of your home loan arrives. On the reset date, your future EMIs will be calculated based on the interest rate prevailing on that date (i.e., reset date).
A likely pause in reduction in FD interest rates
Just as banks have been cutting interest rates on loan, they have been announcing reductions in their FD rates as well. So, no change in key policy rates may prompt banks to go easy on cutting fixed deposit (FD) rates.
In a relief to the small savings schemes investor, the governemnt has decided to keep the interest rate unchanged for the third quarter of FY 2020-21. No change in the interest rate of post office deposit schemes would be a relief for investors who are already reeling from the interest rate cuts on the fixed deposits.

Since the rates remain unchanged vis a vis an expected rise, the markets perceived this as a positive move and will pave way for more liquidity as the RBI proposes to buy bonds and  be active in OMO.
