Icra CEO Says Corporate India's Credit Profile Remains Healthy Despite Sector Challenges
Corporate India's credit profile remains healthy following post-Covid deleveraging, with rating upgrades outnumbering downgrades, according to Icra Group CEO Ramnath Krishnan. While sectors like chemicals, airlines, gems and jewellery, and oil refining face challenges due to geopolitical tensions, no major systemic crisis is expected. However, prolonged geopolitical conflicts, inflation, rising oil prices, and a weaker rupee could pressure credit ratios and dampen private sector investment amid uncertain consumer demand.
