Corporate credit profile continues robust performance in H1FY24: Ind-Ra

18 Oct 2023 Evaluate

Credit rating agency, India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) in its latest report has stated that the corporate credit profile continued its robust performance in first half of the current financial year (H1FY24), third year in a row. Among the sectors which witnessed positive rating actions are infrastructure asset operators, largely from the renewable power sector. 

According to the report, there were positive rating actions for construction (EPC for railways, solar power) and capital goods companies, supported by continued government capex spending and green shoots in private capex. Besides, premiumisation of consumption in sectors such as auto & auto components, realty and companies in consumer services helped them in witnessing rating upgrades.

Ind-Ra further noted that financial sector entities witnessed high stability in their ratings, with more than 90% of the ratings being affirmed. Continued strengthening of balance sheets and strong credit growth driven by sustained retail and continued corporate credit growth benefitted the sector’s credit profile. 

However, the credit rating agency  noted that the banking system credit growth is likely to reduce to 13.5% year on year (yoy) in FY24 (FY23: 15.0% yoy) due to the continuing global economic challenges and concerns on inflation in the domestic market, leading to a possible moderation in the credit profile.
