Published interest-rate terms — source conflictSBI's product page says MSME loans and non-MSME loans below ₹50 lakh are EBLR + 200 bps; other non-MSME loans of ₹50 lakh or more follow bank guidelines. SBI's 15 September 2026 product-code sheet names EB-TL-AGR-AHIDF SCHEME and gives EBR + 200 bps, but its remarks say non-MSME loans below ₹50 lakh use 1-year MCLR + 200 bps and loans of ₹50 lakh or more use 1-year MCLR linked to CRA. The non-MSME benchmark wording conflicts; confirm the applicable borrower rate with SBI. No customer-specific rate is inferred.Effective 15 Sept 2026View source
page states +200 bps for the non- sub-₹50-lakh band, while the new rate sheet's row remarks specify 1-year +200 bps; for ₹50 lakh and above the page says extant bank guidelines and the sheet specifies 1-year linked to CRA. The product-code row's +2% spread is retained alongside its remarks.

Agriculture term-loan upfront feeSBI's current advances tariff charges (excluding GST) 1.25% for CRA/ CUE ratings 1–4, 1.50% for CRA/ CUE 5–10, and 2.00% for CRA 11 or below/ unrated or CUE 11 or below. Agriculture term loans up to ₹2 lakh are nil; qualifying Micro/ Small Enterprise bank loans up to ₹5 lakh are exempt under the schedule. A separate processing charge is not collected where a term-loan upfront fee is recovered. The final charge depends on SBI's rating and borrower classification.Effective 1 Jun 2025View source

Above ₹50 crore, the tariff lists 0.05% for SB1–SB4, 0.10% for SB5–SB10 and the ambiguous literal band “Below SB 10” at 0.15%; do not infer how that last band is intended.

The schedule states nil up to ₹25 lakh, staged rates through ₹50 crore, and rating bands above ₹50 crore; its last band is literally written “Below 10”. It defines sanctioned-limit versus outstanding-balance basis and the anniversary date.

Project-cost exclusions and commencement conditionsInterest subvention is not available for land purchase, working capital, pre-operative expenses, working-capital margin, interest during construction, acquisition of existing infrastructure, old machinery or vehicles for personal use.
