S P Global Projects 12-14% Credit Growth Amid Rural Lending Risks in India
S P Global projects 12-14% credit growth in India's financial sector for the fiscal year despite risks from weak monsoon rains potentially slowing rural lending. The agency forecasts 7% GDP growth for FY27 and anticipates moderate monetary policy tightening. While public investment remains steady and private investment improves in sectors like data centers and semiconductors, challenges such as inflation and rural income pressures may affect unsecured loans and microfinance profitability.
