The long-term rating is unsolicited, alongside an A-2 short-term unsolicited sovereign credit rating.<\/p>\n\n    <h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_S_P_Said_About_Indias_Rating_Anchors\"><\/span>What S&amp;P Said About India&#8217;s Rating Anchors<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n    <div class=\"quote\">\n      <p>&#8220;The sovereign credit ratings on India are anchored by a dynamic and fast-growing economy, strong external balance sheet, and stable institutions that support policy predictability,&#8221; S&amp;P said in its affirmation.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <p>The stable outlook reflects the agency&#8217;s expectation that continued policy stability and high infrastructure investment will support India&#8217;s long-term growth prospects. S&amp;P added that the growth outlook, along with stable fiscal and monetary policies that moderate the government&#8217;s elevated debt and interest burden, will support the rating over the next 24 months.<\/p>\n\n    <h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Indias_Growth_Record_and_FY27_Forecast\"><\/span>India&#8217;s Growth Record and FY27 Forecast<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n    <p>India remains among the best-performing economies globally, recording average annual growth of 7.9% over the five fiscal years from FY22 to FY26.<\/p>\n\n    <div class=\"quote\">\n      <p>&#8220;We forecast growth to fall to 6.6% this fiscal year on account of an ongoing energy shock and challenging agricultural conditions. But we expect India&#8217;s strong growth dynamics to continue in the medium term with GDP growth averaging 7% annually over the next three years. This has a moderating effect on the ratio of government debt to GDP despite wide fiscal deficits.&#8221;<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <p>High energy prices and difficult agricultural conditions are likely to marginally slow expansion this year, but the agency expects economic fundamentals to remain sound and support robust output over the next two to three years.<\/p>\n\n    <h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Constrains_Indias_Rating\"><\/span>What Constrains India&#8217;s Rating<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n    <p>S&amp;P said India&#8217;s strengths are counterbalanced by three factors:<\/p>\n    <ul class=\"doc\">\n      <li><strong>Fiscal performance:<\/strong> Weak fiscal performance by the government<\/li>\n      <li><strong>Debt stock:<\/strong> A burdensome debt stock<\/li>\n      <li><strong>GDP per capita:<\/strong> Low GDP per capita<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n    <p>These constraints have kept India at the lowest investment-grade tier despite its strong growth record and improving external position.<\/p>\n\n    <h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_This_Compares_With_Fitchs_Recent_Decision\"><\/span>How This Compares With Fitch&#8217;s Recent Decision<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n    \n    <p>Earlier this month, Fitch also affirmed India&#8217;s rating at BBB-, citing a robust domestic economy. Both agencies have now retained India&#8217;s rating at investment grade with a stable outlook, reflecting a broadly consistent assessment of the country&#8217;s credit profile despite near-term energy and fiscal pressures.<\/p>\n\n    <h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Outlook\"><\/span>Final Outlook<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n    <div class=\"outlook\">\n      <p>S&amp;P&#8217;s affirmation frames India&#8217;s near-term growth moderation within a structurally strong medium-term trajectory. The agency&#8217;s 7% annual GDP growth expectation over three years, if realised, would help moderate the debt-to-GDP ratio even without a sharp improvement in the fiscal position. Energy prices, agricultural outcomes, and progress on fiscal consolidation will be the key variables shaping the next rating review.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"source\">\n      Source: Moneycontrol    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"disclaimer\">\n      <strong>Disclaimer:<\/strong> This content is for education and awareness purpose only and should not be considered investment advice or a recommendation.
