SBI Shaurya Home Loan
The SBI has introduced a new home loan scheme dedicated to the Army and defence personnel of the nation, named the Shaurya Home Loan. This special home loan scheme will be only provided to the defence employees. The SBI Shaurya home loans will have lower interest rates and other added benefits which will only be provided to the defence employee applicants.
