Technology, automobiles, telecom, infrastructure, logistics, industrials, and power generation benefit from deleveraging, policy support, export opportunities under new trade agreements, and long-term demand visibility.

“While sectors such as chemicals and textiles face margin pressures, and transport and airports remain relatively leveraged, their credit profiles are supported by strong solvency, improving profitability, and stable revenue visibility,” said K. H. Patnaik, Chief Ratings Officer, Brickwork Ratings.

Of the 25 sectors across 8 industry clusters, the ratings agency has given a negative-to-stable rating to the Power Distribution segment.

“The weakness in the segment is on account of elevated and unsustainable debt levels reflected in the weak credit profile and continued cash gap created due to muted or delayed tariff hikes. DISCOMS which have identified and reduced distribution losses and improved collection efficiency will be better positioned to curb losses and meet the LPS terms,” said Niraj Rathi, Senior Director – Ratings, Brickwork.

From a macroeconomic perspective, the ratings agency maintained that India's macroeconomic environment remains resilient, providing a supportive backdrop for credit quality despite heightened geopolitical uncertainties.
