India's Private Credit Growth and Government's New Financing Framework for Investments
India's private credit market remained steady in the first half of 2026, with healthcare becoming the second-largest sector, accounting for 13% of deal value. Domestic funds led 74% of deal value, focusing on refinancing, real estate, and acquisitions. Concurrently, the government is drafting a financing framework to accelerate investment projects by building a pipeline of bankable projects and deepening debt markets, aiming to meet an estimated ₹85 trillion external funding need for FY27-31 and reduce reliance on bank financing.
