“The Indian economy is entering a phase of productive and sustainable growth supported by a stable macro and political environment. Implementation of the country’s biggest tax reform, GST should widen the country’s tax net and improve the ease of doing business. The RBI and Finance Ministry’s strong resolve towards tackling the NPA situation is a step in the right direction. Markets have cheered these developments and have touched all-time highs on the back of increased inflows by investors.
Our fund based businesses continue to gain traction. We remain selective and are focused on asset quality in our lending business. Our ARC business remains focused on resolution of the acquired assets and opportunistically adding new assets.
With the strong momentum in the Capital markets we have successfully executed several transactions this quarter. Our capital markets and mergers and acquisitions deal pipeline remains robust.”
