Key takeaways

| Revenue growth | Ratings H1 up 15.2%; non-ratings flat near ₹80 Cr/quarter. |
|---|---|
| Margins | Ratings margin 37.6% in FY26, up from 20.8% in FY21; risk-analytics margins compressing by design. |
| Demand visibility | Bank credit growth about 21% in H1; bond issuance low single digit; H2 expected buoyant. |
| Management confidence | Balanced; deflects market share and Moody's questions with timing explanations. |
Growth

No numeric guidance given. Basel III risk-weight reset called positive but unquantified. Buyback or special dividend under consideration, no decision.
Risks
Bond-yield-driven ratings slowdown, flat Moody's revenue, bank-tech H1 moderation, margin compression from mix shift, and D2K/Fintelix losses.
