NBFCs lead March CP issuances; corporate borrowing may ease in FY27: Ind-Ra

: Non-banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) continued to drive activity in the commercial paper (CP) market in March, even as corporates turned cautious amid elevated short-term borrowing costs, a report by India Ratings and Research (Ind-Ra) said. The rating agency expects the divergence in borrowing patterns to persist, with NBFCs continuing to access the CP market actively to meet funding requirements, particularly during the financial year-end period, while corporates remain selective due to higher funding costs and comfortable internal liquidity. March typically marks the peak funding requirement period for NBFCs, and their demand has remained strong despite the rise in yields, the report noted. Reflecting this trend, CP issuances by NBFCs surged to Rs 70,300 crore in March 2026, up from Rs 45,500 crore in February 2026. In contrast, corporate CP issuances declined sharply to Rs 26,600 crore from Rs 40,700 crore during the same period. "The current environment suggests that NBFC
