Amish Mehta, Managing Director and CEO of Crisil, said, "The Indian economy continues to show strength in the face of global uncertainties, with public investments, favorable monsoon, low inflation and healthy external markers supporting growth. Crisil, with its strong foundation and diversified portfolio, remains resilient in this environment. Our strategic investments in technology and talent, combined with domain-led solutions, are enabling us to navigate this complex landscape and capitalise on emerging opportunities. We are maintaining our momentum and continuing to deliver value to stakeholders."

As for India's gross domestic product (GDP), CRISIL forecast a growth of 6.5% for the current financial year (FY26). It mentioned downside risks due to likely tariff moves by the United States and the overhang from global uncertainties.

"The decline in the Consumer Price Index-based inflation to 2.1% in June, the lowest since February 2019, is supportive of growth. As are the moves by the Monetary Policy Committee of the Reserve Bank of India, to frontload the repo rate cut by 100 basis points (bps) so far and an additional 100 bps CRR cut in second half of this fiscal , is expected to boost rate transmission and support economic growth," it said.
