      A Once a year Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Once every six months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Once every three months Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Once every month Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E No specific frequency is prescribed Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      • RBI’s circular on External Benchmark Based Lending (EBLR) mandates that interest rates on floating rate loans linked to external benchmarks must be reset at least once every three months. • This ensures that lending rates move in tandem with market interest rate changes, providing transparency and faster transmission of monetary policy. • Example: If a loan is linked to the RBI repo rate, and repo changes, the loan interest rate must reflect this change within one quarter.
