Syndicate Bank Cuts Lending Rate
Syndicate Bank reduced MCLR by one per cent to 8.35% from 9.35% for one-month tenor.

New Delhi: Syndicate Bank on Friday slashed its benchmark lending rate by up to 1 per cent, in the footsteps of bigger lenders like State Bank of India (SBI), ICICI Bank and others.
