Credit Market Indicator – December 2025

Retail Credit Demand Buoyed by GST Rationalization and Festive Season Sentiment in Q3 2025

 
The CMI is a comprehensive measure of data elements that are summarized monthly to analyse changes in credit market health, categorized under four pillars: demand, supply, consumer behaviour, and performance. These factors are combined into a single, comprehensive indicator, and pillars can also be viewed in more detail individually. The CMI for September 2025 was 99, higher than 98 in June 2025.
  • The Goods and Services Tax (GST) rationalisation and the festive season boosted retail credit demand, particularly for consumer durable, auto and two-wheeler loans
  • Younger borrowers and new-to-credit consumers (NTC) expanded their share, particularly in semi-urban and rural regions
  • Early delinquencies emerging in micro-loans against property (LAP) and small-ticket housing loans, which calls for proactive monitoring of these portfolios
