Where India’s power comes from

Power demand has been on the rise. For supply to keep pace, along with a push to attain net zero emissions, the net installed capacity has been growing at a CAGR of 4.7 per cent since FY 2009-10 until now. Solar as a source, however has been growing at a different scale of 36.6 per cent CAGR during the same period with Wind, a distant second at 7 per cent. While the supply has fallen short of demand in India since FY 2009-10, the gap has been on a declining trend. While fossils are expected to do the heavy-lifting in the near term, investments in renewables are expected to start generating yields. Compiled by Arun K Shanmugam

How the retail segment is pushing systematic credit growth faster

Systematic credit has been growing at 8 per cent CAGR since FY19 and at a much faster 12.5 per cent CAGR since FY21. The share of retail within systematic credit is also increasing Y-o-Y from 30 per cent in FY19 to 37 per cent in FY24. Retail credit, on the other hand, witnessed solid Y-o-Y growth at low teens since FY23 and the share of personal loan and gold loan have increased while that of housing and auto loan has decreased. However, moderation in retail credit growth is expected on account of RBI’s increase in risk weight mandate for riskier loans.  Compiled by Arun K Shanmugam
