Will my Union Bank EMI change after the RBI policy on December 4, 2026?

Union Bank home loans are linked to an external benchmark, usually the RBI repo rate. If the RBI changes the repo rate, Union Bank revises its benchmark and your rate resets within the reset window. Most lenders extend your tenure by default rather than change your EMI.

My Union Bank home loan is at 8.75%. Should I shift it?

If the gap between your rate and a new offer is at least 0.40% to 0.50%, you have 5+ years left and your balance is above ₹20 lakh, a transfer usually saves money even after fees. Ask Union Bank for a spread reset first. If they refuse, compare offers.

Does Union Bank charge a prepayment or foreclosure fee?

RBI rules do not allow lenders to charge prepayment or foreclosure penalties on floating-rate home loans taken by individuals. Fixed-rate loans and business borrowers can be treated differently, so check your sanction letter.

Does GoVitt charge me anything?

No. GoVitt is free for borrowers. We are paid by partner lenders, and we tell you honestly when a switch is not worth it.

RBI hiked the repo rate by 25 bps on October 7, 2026. Repo now 5.5%.

How Union Bank decides your rate

Union Bank of India is a bank, so every new floating-rate home loan is linked to an external benchmark, which for most banks is the RBI repo rate.

Your Union Bank rate = repo-linked benchmark (RBI repo + bank spread) + your risk premium

Repo moves, your rate follows

The RBI repo rate is at 5.5% and the next policy decision is on December 4, 2026. If it changes, Union Bank revises its repo-linked rate and your loan resets within the reset window.

Your spread does not move

The spread set on day one usually stays for the full tenure, even if your CIBIL score improves. That is why older Union Bank borrowers often pay more than new ones.

Lenders stretch tenure, not EMI

When rates go up, most lenders keep your EMI the same and add months to the loan. Your statement may not show the real payoff date.

When a switch makes sense

Rate gap of 0.40% or more, 5+ years left, and a balance above ₹20 lakh. Below that, switching costs can eat the savings.
