Published margin termsThe Kanakadhara page overview states 15% margin for a tenor up to 6–12 months and 25% up to 24 months. Its product-labeled Kanakadhara rate rows cover the 6–12 month range at 15%; the separate 25%/ 24-month row is labelled Agri/ Allied Activities, not Kanakadhara, so do not treat that longer row as confirmed Kanakadhara pricing.Effective 18 Mar 2026View source
The page overview and separately labelled rate rows are preserved without extending Kanakadhara-specific pricing into a differently named Agri/Allied facility.

Published gold-loan rates and source discrepancyFor up to 6 months: 6-month MCLR, shown as 8.70% effective. For above 6 through 12 months: UCO's agriculture catalogue and gold-loan table show MCLR + 0.05% / 8.75%, while the MCLR-linked rate schedule lists 0.10% / 8.80% for the same named band. The official pages conflict; confirm the applicable 6–12 month rate with UCO before applying.Effective 10 Jul 2026View source
The current named scheme pages show 8.75% for the 6–12 month row, but the bank's schedule shows 8.80%; the 8.70% up-to-six-month row agrees. Both figures are retained as an unresolved official-source conflict.
