War on the home loans turf continues but with a difference. Banks and companies are not directly slashing interest rates, but are offering innovative products with attractive pricing to lure customers.

IDBI Bank is offering the lowest interest rate of 2 per cent in the first year of repayment, rising to 10.5 per cent in the fifth year.
