CARE Ratings also declared a second interim dividend of Rs 6 per equity share for 2016-17.
"While growth in top line and bottom line has been positive resulting in improvement in profit margins, we are waiting for the economy to get into a higher gear which will increase the volume of debt raised through both the banking system and debt market," said MD and CEO Rajesh Mokashi.
Several reforms introduced by RBI on deepening the debt market do augur well for the rating industry and the company expects business to improve further once they are in place, he added.
The CARE Ratings stock closed 2.18 per cent lower at Rs 1,365.55 on BSE.
