The rate cut is in line with easing of interest rate in the market following moderation in interest rates by the RBI last month.
The RBI reduced benchmark repo rate by 75 basis points to 4.40 per cent in the bi-monthly Monetary Policy Committee meeting on March 27.
The step was part of RBI's action plan to ease the economic burden of the coronavirus outbreak.
