Moody’s highlighted that despite the rupee hitting record lows against the US dollar, most rated Indian companies have managed currency risks effectively through hedging and robust financial buffers. Investment-grade firms also continue to access overseas capital markets without difficulty.

“India will lead growth among emerging markets and across the region,” the agency said, noting that Asia-Pacific GDP is expected to grow 3.6% in 2025 and 3.4% in 2026. Emerging markets in the region will expand at an average 5.6%, far outpacing the 1.3% projected for advanced economies.

Moody’s said India’s expanding economic base, stable corporate performance, and strong investment momentum will keep it ahead of regional peers through 2026.
