Bad loan ratio of banks likely to fall to 5-5.5% by March 2024: S&P Global

S&P Global Ratings on Thursday said non-performing loans of banks are expected to decline to 5-5.5 per cent of the total advances by March 2024. As per the latest Financial Stability Report published by the RBI, the gross non-performing assets (GNPA) declined to a six-year low of 5.9 per cent in March 2022. "We project the banking sector's weak loans will decline to 5-5.5 per cent of gross loans by March 31, 2024. Likewise, we forecast the credit costs to stabilise at 1.5 per cent for fiscal 2023 and further normalise to 1.3 per cent, making credit costs comparable to those of other emerging markets and India's 15-year average," the rating agency said in a report. The small and midsize enterprise sector and low-income households are vulnerable to rising interest rates and high inflation, but it expects these risks to be limited, the agency added. With an economic pick-up, residual stress for these segments should start abating, it said, adding that NPL recoveries are likely to ...

Moody's upgrades JSW Steel's corporate family rating to Ba1 from Ba2

Moody's Investors Service on Monday said it has upgraded the JSW Steel Ltd's Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to Ba1 from Ba2. At the same time, Moody's has changed the ratings outlook on JSW Steel Ltd and Periama Holdings LLC to 'stable' from 'positive'. "The upgrade reflects JSW's continued strong operating performance and consistently strong credit metrics while maintaining good liquidity," Kaustubh Chaubal, a Moody's senior vice president said. Ba1 rating means obligations are judged to have speculative elements and are subject to substantial credit risk. Moody's has also upgraded to Ba1 from Ba2 JSW's senior unsecured notes rating, the guaranteed backed senior unsecured rating on Periama Holdings LLC and the USD 40-million guaranteed senior unsecured revenue bonds issued by Jefferson County Port Authority. In Moody's view, JSW's substantially stronger operating performance will help sustain its deleveraging. The upgrade also reflects the successful commissioning of the company

Rail orders critical for survival of JSW Steel's Italian biz: Company exec

The fate of JSW Steel's businesses in Italy largely depends on contracts from Italian railway authorities, failing which it will look at other alternatives, a top official said. JSW Steel has so far failed to revive the company it acquired in 2018, and rising raw material cost and geo-political issues, including the Russia-Ukraine crisis, has not helped matters either. The losses have reduced. The loss is majorly attributed to rail orders that are not sustainable. We are striving for more rail orders. If those come, it's fine, otherwise some alternatives have to be thought of, JSW Steel Joint MD & Group CFO Seshagiri Rao told PTI. Revenue of the Italian facility in Piombino improved to euro 309 million during 2021-22 from euro 249 million earlier, while the operating loss narrowed to euro 6.4 million in the fiscal under review from euro 22.6 million a year ago. JSW Italy has in the past won rail orders to the tune of around 40,000 metric tonnes from two contracts by Rete ...
