India’s securitization volume rises to Rs 73,000 crore

Blitz Bureau

NEW DELHI: Securitisation volumes in India reached approximately Rs 73,000 crore in the second quarter of current fiscal (Q2 FY26), a report showed on October 10. This reflects a healthy increase from the roughly Rs. 70,000 crores recorded in the corresponding period of the previous year (Q2 FY2025), according to credit rating agency ICRA. The composition of this growth, however, signifies a notable shift in market dynamics.

The previous year’s uptick was primarily driven by significant activity from a single large bank. In a shift for the current quarter, the increase is attributed to a more diversified base, stemming from a few large corporate transactions, the report mentioned. “Securitisation volumes for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 (Q2 FY2026) reached approximately Rs. 73,000 crore. This marks an increase from the roughly Rs. 70,000 crore recorded in the same period of the previous year (Q2 FY2025),” said Manushree Saggar, Senior Vice President and Group Head, Structured Finance.

In Q2 FY2025, uptick in market volume was mainly due to significant activity by one large bank. In contrast, the increase observed in Q2 FY2026 can be attributed to a few of corporate transactions, Saggar noted. However, routine volumes remained stable at Rs. 50,000 crore, consistent with the rating agency’s projections. Although certain large vehicle and mortgage lenders reduced their sell-down activity, this decline was counterbalanced by enhanced participation from micro-finance lenders.
