Foreword
We’re pleased to present the August 2025 edition of ICRA Insight, continuing our commitment to delivering timely, research-backed perspectives on India’s evolving macro and sectoral landscape.
This month’s Monthly macro wrap highlights two key developments: the imposition of US tariffs on India and the state of India’s fiscal health. The tariffs have prompted a downward revision in our FY2026 GDP growth forecast to 6.0%, while strong Government capex and RBI dividends offer resilience. Our Chief Economist, Aditi Nayar, shares her insights on the evolving outlook.
The Research Recap covers macro trends, the PM E-Drive Scheme for e-trucks, and climate finance implications of the US withdrawal from the Paris Agreement.
In our Spotlight on CSR, we connected with students through creative learning. On July 29, ICRA Board members visited the VIDYA School in Gurugram, engaging with students through cultural and creative activities.
This edition also features upcoming webinar details, media coverage, rating updates, methodologies, and our latest podcast on edge data centres.
We hope you find this edition insightful and engaging.
