Key highlights:

  • Amid the global challenges, India's economic growth accelerated to 7.8% in Q1 FY24 from 6.1% in the previous quarter and high-frequency economic indicators also depict resilience.

  • Our credit ratio has moderated in this backdrop to 1.67 in H1 FY24, down from 2.72 seen in H2 FY23. Nevertheless, upgrades still continue to outnumber downgrades with 217 upgrades and 130 downgrades during H1 FY24.

  • The credit ratio for the banking and financial services sector improved sharply to 4.20 in H1 FY24 from 1.91 in H2 FY23 with upgrades seen in both, non-banking financial companies and banks.
