Commenting on the business performance, Mr. Ganesh Narayanan, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of CreditAccess Grameen Ltd, remarked, “The Company delivered a steady and disciplined performance in Q1 FY27. AUM grew 16.4% YoY to INR 30,319 crore, notwithstanding the typical Q1 seasonality and continued write-offs over the past 12 months. Retail Finance now constitutes 20.6% of AUM, up from 18.1% a quarter ago, driven by the graduation of long-vintage, credit-tested customers into secured, higher-ticket products, a trend that is expected to gain further momentum. During the quarter, we also completed a private NCD issuance of INR 425 crore, which further diversifies our liability base. Our overall funding profile remains healthy, with foreign borrowings at 23.9% of our liability mix and capital position remaining strong with CRAR at 24.9%.

Our asset quality metrics remained within our expected range through the quarter, supported by sustained collection efficiency across all operating geographies. Our continued ability to recover quickly, drove strong improvement in profitability, a trend now visible for the second consecutive quarter. We expect this trajectory to be sustained through the rest of the year helping achieve our FY27 performance guidance. Operating metrics continued to strengthen, with PPOP up 33.6% YoY to INR 873 crore, followed by 62.8% YoY decline in Credit Cost to INR 212 crore, resulting in a PAT of INR 493 crore, up 719.7% YoY. These outcomes lay a strong foundation to undertake 'Project Shakti,' our transformational journey anchored in the strength and resilience of the communities we serve.”

The transaction involved the issuance of pass-through certificates (PTCs) by “Micro-LAP Empower June 2026”, a special purpose vehicle trust set up exclusively for the transaction. The Series A1 PTCs of INR 43.4 million were fully subscribed to by DMI Housing Finance. The PTCs are backed by a pool of mortgage-backed loan receivables from 148 loan contracts originated by Shiksha Finance.

The Series A1 PTCs have been assigned a provisional rating of ICRA A- (SO), with the credit enhancement in the structure being in the form of (i) a CC (Cash collateral) of 11.00% of the initial pool principal provided by Shiksha Finance, (ii) subordination of 10.00% of the initial pool principal for Series A1 PTC, and iii) the EIS of 41.80% of the initial pool principal for Series A1 PTC.

The PTC transaction with DMI Housing Finance is the third in a series of similar transactions concluded by Shiksha Finance. With this transaction, Shiksha has cumulatively raised over INR 200 million through the securitisation route. The rating of PTCs from the previous two transactions has been maintained at A- (SO) by ICRA after their annual review.

“The transaction with DMI Housing Finance is an important one for us at Shiksha, as this adds a new investor and a new class of investors to our list of supporters and stakeholders,” said Mr V L Ramakrishnan, CEO of Shiksha Finance. “We see PTCs and direct assignments as significant avenues for debt fundraise and treasury management in the future.”

Lucknow-headquartered AI-infrastructure platform InfoBay.AI. has crossed Rs 100 crores in revenue and Rs 50 crores in Profit After Tax (PAT) in FY 2025-26. While Profit Before Tax (PBT) increased to 3x, the platform clocked a Net Revenue Retention (NRR) of 140%-160% in the last fiscal year. This 10x revenue growth over the past two years is supported by a structural Gross Margin of 80%+, a hallmark of a scalable software infrastructure business.

InfoBay.AI has also expanded into five countries: Indonesia, Kenya, the Philippines and Uganda, besides India, as part of its expansion plan to 14 countries by 2027. In line with its expansion plans, it has also strengthened its leadership team with a new Chief Financial Officer, VP-Global Sales and R&D Manager on board. These key hires reinforce its governance and capacity for international enterprise scaling.

"AI is here to dominate, pivoting to a mission-critical AI-infrastructure platform, InfoBay.AI, is in line with our commitment to playing an even bigger role in India's growth story. It is also a testament to our unwavering belief in continuous evolution to cater to the changing needs of the industry. We are among the most profitable AI- powered companies in India, powering half of the world's frontier labs," said Rohit Manglik, Founder & CEO, InfoBay.AI.

"InfoBay's success is founded on a strategic evolution that converted EduGorilla’s legacy assets into proprietary AI infrastructure. It is not merely a rebranding; it is a sophisticated asset-repurposing strategy that leverages years of building complex STEM and reasoning content into structured data that now fuels the TIBET engine and provides a unique "reasoning trace" foundation for AI- driven models. The team structure and operations are now entirely aligned with this structurally superior, pure-play AI mandate," he added.

InfoBay's proprietary Asset Layer now includes a massive repository of structured data, including 2 million de-identified medical patient records and 34 million vertical videos. It has an expanded linguistic moat, with audio coverage in 40 languages and educational data in 15. The platform is actively leveraging multimodal capabilities (video, audio, text) to build deeper, vertical-specific datasets in adjacent, high-value domains like Physical AI.

As InfoBay continues to expand, its focus remains laser-sharp on being the Mission-Critical AI Infrastructure Platform. Every expansion, hire, and product roadmap decision is engineered to strengthen our moats—technical (TIBET), operational, and relationship-driven—ensuring sustained, high-margin growth.

Pramerica Life delivers third straight year of double-digit growth; Expands insurance reach across India

Last financial year, the company reported 19% year-on-year growth in New Business Premium (NBP), while Annualised Premium Equivalent (APE) grew 29% year-on-year, driven by healthy momentum across distribution channels. A Claims Paid Ratio of 99.29%, rising for three successive years, indicates towards the sound quality of the business.

The company also delivered strong growth in Retail New Business Premium, reflecting the continued expansion of its retail network into customer segments where the need for financial protection is high but availability has not always kept pace with that need. Notably, this growth was achieved with an average ticket size approximately 42% lower than the industry median - a measure of how deliberately the company has built its distribution to serve customers at varied income levels, not just at the higher end of the market.

Performance Snapshot for FY26:

• Total New Business Premium of Rs 1,471 crore, registering a 19% Y-o-Y growth

• Individual New Business Premium grew 30% year-on-year, 2.5x faster than the overall private industry

• A strong 3-year CAGR of 28% in Total New Business Premium, reflecting one of the most consistent growth trajectories among private life insurers in India

• Embedded Value grew 15% year-on-year

• 99.29% claims paid ratio, up from 99.18% last year

The company also continued to deepen its protection footprint, covering over 8.7 Cr+ lives including over 3.5 lakh defence personnel since inception. In line with its long-standing focus on developing solutions for insurance buyers with distinct protection needs, Pramerica Life was the first life insurer to develop specialised protection offerings designed around the service conditions and requirements of armed forces and paramilitary personnel, forging a deep and enduring association with these communities.

Over the years, this relationship has evolved beyond customer outreach into a wider people philosophy, with the company continuing to create meaningful second-career opportunities for veterans and ex-servicemen. Since inception, over 8,500 veterans have been employed by the company, with ex-servicemen today constituting nearly 17% of its employee base.

Pankaj Gupta, MD & CEO, Pramerica Life Insurance, said, "We are focused on building a business anchored in steady progression - and our third consecutive year of double-digit growth is a reflection of that intent. This record has been driven by a well-balanced mix of distribution channels, a sharp focus on the customer, a product approach built around genuine relevance and a strong risk management framework.

As we grow, our priority is to scale responsibly while staying grounded in what matters most to our customers: reliability and a strong claims experience. Looking ahead, we remain committed to expanding access to life insurance through wider market presence and delivering solutions that align with the evolving needs of new-age India, all while building a business that creates lasting value not just economically, but also through broader financial inclusion and community impact."

The growth momentum in FY26 was bolstered by a diversified strategy, with strong contributions across both proprietary and newly seeded channels. These channels serve a wide spectrum of customers across geographies, income profiles, professions and life stages, enabling more inclusive insurance penetration across the country.

This commitment to serving a diverse set of customers has also shaped the way Pramerica Life thinks about its products, making accessibility and relevance in product design an extension of its customer-first philosophy. On the non-participating side, the company offers some of the most competitive propositions in the industry - products designed to deliver certainty in an uncertain market environment, which have found strong resonance with customers seeking reliable, long-term financial protection. In the market-linked segment, the company has been at the forefront of product innovation, with offerings such as Smart Invest 1Up - an industry-first ULIP proposition - reflecting Pramerica Life's commitment to designing products that are differentiated in design and relevant to the evolving needs of today's India.

This thinking extends to the company's expanding fund portfolio as well. Recognising the growing investor appetite for India's long-term growth story, particularly in the midcap segment, Pramerica Life introduced the Nifty Midcap 50 Correlation Fund and the Rising Bharat Fund as part of its market-linked offerings last financial year. Both funds have delivered strong performance relative to broader market benchmarks, reinforcing the company's focus on identifying high-potential investment themes early and translating them into relevant customer propositions.

Grounded on these pillars, Pramerica Life Insurance has focussed on expanding its brand visibility through targeted, insight-driven marketing capabilities. At the forefront of this effort is This Is My Climb, a brand campaign that speaks to the aspirations and resilience of everyday Indians. The campaign's most recent chapter made its presence felt on the front pages of national and regional dailies, extending the brand's reach to a wide and diverse readership across the country.

This kind of engagement with customers does not emerge in isolation; it is the outward expression of an organisation that holds itself to the same standard of commitment internally. A culture of trust, inclusion and accountability - reflected in the company being Great Place To Work Certified for four successive years and recognised among the Top 25 Best Workplaces in the BFSI sector - forms the bedrock of how Pramerica Life grows from within. The company’s commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce is equally deliberate. Recognised among India’s Best Workplaces for Women and featured in India’s first DEI 100 Index by Team Marksmen and Ernst & Young, Pramerica Life believes that an organisation reflecting the diversity of the country it serves is best positioned to serve it meaningfully.

The steadiness of Pramerica Life’s growth story finds its roots in customer centricity being at the core of every decision. The company’s focus remains on shaping a business that combines scale with sustainability and growth with responsibility, while continuing to expand access to purposeful financial protection across India. Anchored in trust, inclusion, governance and long-term value creation, this is the foundation on which Pramerica Life is charting its next chapter.

FY 2026 Business Highlights

Yatra reported its most profitable year in its history despite some very significant macro headwinds that impacted 3 out of the 12 months of the year.

• Gross Margin (RLSC) for the year grew 24.5% YoY to INR 4,824 Mn, ahead of the revised guidance of 22.5%

• Adjusted EBITDA of INR 917 Mn, a YoY growth of 37.5% came in line with revised guidance while EBITDA improved to INR 855 Mn, a YoY growth of 53.2%.

• PAT improved to INR 468 Mn, a YoY growth of 28.1%. The PAT growth for the year was adversely impacted by the introduction of the new wage code in Q3, excluding the effect of which the PAT for the year would have been INR 506 Mn, a YoY growth of 38.5%.

Q4-FY26 Business Highlights

Despite disruption from the war-related environment, Yatra reported resilient operating performance:

• Gross bookings grew 8.3% YoY

• Gross margin grew 3.6% YoY

• Total transactions increased 15.2% YoY

• Air passengers grew 9.6% YoY, roughly 2x industry growth, reflecting further market share expansion.

• The Corporate business maintained strong momentum, adding 55 new corporate customers during the quarter, representing an annual billable potential of INR 2,709 Mn. This compares favourably with 40 closures worth INR 2,234 million in Q3

However, the war-related disruption significantly affected the company’s MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences & Exhibitions) business, particularly international corporate group travel. Several Q4 bookings were either cancelled or deferred into FY27.

Management Comments

Commenting on the results, Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Siddhartha Gupta stated, “Yatra delivered a strong FY26, with execution remaining strong despite a volatile macro and geopolitical backdrop. Performance was broadly in line with revised guidance, supported by 24.5% RLSC growth and 37.5% Adjusted EBITDA growth, reflecting operating leverage and disciplined cost control.

Across businesses, Yatra strengthened its competitive position. The Air segment delivered healthy TTV growth while maintaining margin discipline, with passenger growth outpacing industry levels throughout the quarter and the full year. The Hotels & Packages business also gained momentum, led by strong growth in standalone hotels and margin expansion driven by a better mix and improved monetization.

The Corporate (B2E) business remained a key growth driver. During FY26, Yatra added 163 new corporate customers with an annual billable value of about INR 9,568 Mn, up from 148 customers and INR 7,475 Mn in FY25, underscoring continued traction in the enterprise travel market.

Q4 was affected by geopolitical disruptions and war-related uncertainty, which weighed on international travel demand, particularly in MICE. Some corporate bookings were deferred or cancelled, though management expects a meaningful portion of this demand to return as conditions normalize.

Despite these temporary headwinds, Yatra continued to post healthy growth in gross bookings and transactions, supported by market share gains, improving take rates, and a strong corporate pipeline.

While macro challenges are likely to persist in the first half of the year, Management remains optimistic about FY27. Backed by structural growth in India’s travel and corporate mobility markets and Yatra’s continued investment in AI technology, customer acquisition, hotel supply, and its B2E platform. Management remains confident of its medium-term growth CAGR of 20% RLSC growth and 30% Adj EBITDA growth.”

Experion Developers’ landmark luxury project showcases design-led architecture and premium living spaces

The milestone reflects the emergence of a developer steadily reshaping the contours of luxury housing through a disciplined, design-led, and institutionally anchored approach to development. At a time when real estate growth is often associated with aggressive expansion, Experion has quietly almost doubled its revenue from Rs. 2,200 crore in the previous financial year through calibrated market selection, strong demand absorption, and a clear focus on the luxury segment.

B.K. Malagi, Vice Chairman, Experion Developers said, “Crossing Rs. 4,000 crore in revenue is a significant step for us and reflects the steady momentum we’ve built over the past years. It comes from a clear focus on tapping the right markets, strong execution, and staying fundamental in how we grow.

Continuing this legacy, One42 Golf Course Road has emerged as a benchmark in ultra-luxury living, with recent transactions exceeding Rs. 1 lakh per sq ft. The project reflects an elevated, design-led philosophy centred on exclusivity, spacious living, and low-density residences for UHNI buyers.

Saatori, Experion’s second project in Noida after the success of Experion Elements, recorded approximately Rs. 1,800 crore in sales at launch, with more than 400 units sold. The response underlined the strength of demand for premium housing in Noida and demonstrated Experion’s ability to extend its success beyond Gurugram.

Orange Health Labs today announced strong financial performance for FY26, reporting ₹138 crore in revenue and exiting the year at a ₹180 crore ARR, marking a 65% year-on-year growth for both LTM revenue and ARR. With over 3 million orders served to date, the company reinforces its position as India’s fastest diagnostic lab and among the fastest-growing consumer healthcare brands in the country.

From left to right: Tarun Bhambra and Dhruv Gupta, Co-founders of Orange Health Labs

Headquartered in Bengaluru, the company has scaled its presence across Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, and Hyderabad, building a strong multi-city footprint.

Along with fast scaling, the company hit key milestones on profitability as well - it achieved 20% EBITDA profitability in Bengaluru, and became operationally profitable across all cities, underscoring its strong unit economics and a sustainable growth model.

Orange Health Labs continued to deepen its consumer promise of speed and reliability, delivering 99%+ on-time sample collection. It also scaled its omnichannel presence, from 15 stores last year to 75+ company-owned collection centres, with almost 50 stores in Bengaluru, bringing its differentiated at-home experience into physical retail.

Beyond direct-to-consumer services, the company has built a strong healthcare ecosystem. With 2,000+ clinics onboarded through its proprietary platform, it enables faster diagnosis and better clinical decision-making for doctors. 

Orange Health Labs is among the top-rated diagnostic brands in the country, with 50,000+ five-star Google reviews, reinforcing consistent consumer experience and growing brand trust. 

The company also advanced its digital innovation stack with NeO Reports which enables customers to get a quick view of their health parameters, filter, tag and share easily with their family and healthcare providers. Additionally, the company launched Orange One—a first-of-its-kind annual diagnostics plan in India - moving beyond the traditional pay-per-test model to enable proactive, long-term health management.

Commenting on this milestone, Dhruv Gupta, Co-founder, Orange Health Labs, said, “This year marks a defining inflection point for us. Delivering strong growth across all cities, alongside profitability in our home market, validates the strength of our model. More importantly, it reflects a deep and growing consumer trust in a category that has traditionally lacked it. Our focus has been simple—build the fastest, most reliable diagnostics experience—and the market is responding to that clarity.”

Adding to this, Tarun Bhambra, Co-founder, Orange Health Labs, added, “We are reimagining diagnostics as a real-time, consumer-first service—where speed, accuracy, and transparency are non-negotiable. Operational excellence, like 30-minute sample collection and 6-hour report delivery, is just the starting point. With innovations like NeO Reports and Orange One, we are moving the category from reactive testing to proactive health management at scale.”

Backed by leading global investors including Y Combinator, Accel, General Catalyst, Bertelsmann India Investments, and Amazon Sambhav Venture Fund, the company has raised a total of $50 million to date.

Balu Forge Industries Ltd. (the “Company” or “BFIL”) (BSE: 531112 | NSE: BALUFORGE), a leading precision engineering and manufacturing company, has announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter and nine months ended 31st December 2025.

Consolidated Financial Performance:

Consolidated 9M FY26 Revenue from Operations by End – User Industry:

Balu Forge Industries Reports Strong Q3 FY26 Performance

Commenting on the performance, Mr. Jaspal Singh Chandock, Chairman & Managing Director of BFIL stated: “In 9M FY26, the Company reported revenue from operations of Rs. 8,438 million, representing a year-on-year growth of 29.0%, driven by sustained demand momentum. EBITDA for the quarter was Rs. 2,396 million, with a year-on-year growth of 36.1%, with a margin of 28.4%, reflecting stable cost structures and operating leverage benefits, while profit after tax was Rs. 1,932 million, translating into a PAT margin of 22.6%. The performance underscores disciplined execution, margin resilience, and the ongoing strengthening of Balu Forge’s integrated manufacturing platform.

During the quarter, we successfully operationalised a set of high-impact strategic assets that position the Company for sustained growth over the next decade. Our newly commissioned precision machining facility has now been fully commercialised, equipped with advanced 7-Axis and 11-Axis CNC machining lines. This capability enables us to manufacture highly complex components from specialised alloys with micron-level accuracy, decisively moving Balu Forge up the value chain and strengthening our role in mission-critical applications.

In parallel, we have commercialised our dedicated artillery shell production line, with a specific focus on the high-demand 155mm large calibre. This represents a significant milestone in our defence manufacturing journey and reinforces our commitment to the Atmanirbhar Bharat vision by building indigenous capabilities in a strategically critical segment.

These operational achievements have already translated into meaningful external validation. During the quarter, Balu Forge was formally inducted into the NATO Supply Chain, an endorsement that reflects our adherence to the highest global quality, compliance, and reliability standards, and one that opens access to some of the world’s most demanding defence markets.

This external recognition, along with the Company's requisite manufacturing infrastructure and operational capability, reinforces our position to support long-term supply programs and maintain the capacity to service engagements for up to five years. With advanced precision machining facilities and production lines, Balu Forge is well equipped to meet both current and future demands efficiently.

In summary, Q3 was the quarter in which our strategic investments were converted into operational assets, global credentials, and expansion initiatives. With these foundations firmly in place, Balu Forge is now positioned on a trajectory of scalable and sustainable growth in defence and other critical segments.”

Q3 FY 26 saw strong performance across its key business segments. CDMO saw a revenue growth of over 16% spurred on by double digit increase in volumes. The international branded formulation segment more than doubled sequentially led by demand recovery across its key markets.

Adj EBITDA increased 21% YoY to Rs 147 cr as better capacity utilization along with a steady ramp up in the newer facilities led to margin improvement. Tighter control over overheads and portfolio rationalization helped mitigate losses in the API and Trade generics segment as well.

Our march towards becoming a global manufacturing company continued unabated with the Company receiving European Union Good Manufacturing Practice (EU GMP) certification for two of its manufacturing facilities. The certification includes the renewal of EU GMP approval for our Oral Solids’ plant and the grant of EU GMP certification for our Oral Liquids Plant. Akums also received its first approval from the UK MHRA for Rivaroxaban tablets

Commenting on the development, Mr. Sandeep Jain, Managing Director, stated, “The EU GMP certifications reflect the strength of our compliant infrastructure, robust quality systems, and the expertise of our skilled teams. We remain focused on disciplined growth while steadily strengthening our presence in regulated markets.”

Mr. Sanjeev Jain, Managing Director, added, “Our continued focus on operational excellence and disciplined growth is aligned with our long-term global vision, enabling us to expand responsibly across regulated markets and strengthen partnerships worldwide.”

Union Budget 2026

A central focus for technology and services executives is the Government’s prioritisation of the services sector as a key engine for national growth. In this context, Ankit Agarwal, Vice-Chairman and Non-Executive Director, Invenia-STL Networks, said, “The Union Budget 2026 firmly positions the services sector as a core growth engine of Viksit Bharat, reinforcing its role in driving economic growth, employment and exports.” This framing sets the tone for the broader industry reading of the Budget as a document aimed at delivering sustained structural progress rather than short-term stimulus.

For leaders in digital infrastructure, the Budget’s emphasis on foundational assets such as data centres and cloud capabilities has been welcomed. Reflecting this, Agarwal noted that “A clear emphasis on data centres recognises them as critical enablers of India’s digital growth and its ambitions in artificial intelligence, cloud computing and digital public infrastructure.” He further underscored that incentives aimed at strengthening this infrastructure will support India’s drive to attract foreign investment, enhance domestic innovation and build a credible foundation for future technologies.

From a broader technology strategy perspective, CP Gurnani, Co-Founder and Vice Chairman of AIONOS, interpreted the Budget as signalling a decisive shift toward building strategic technological capability. He said, “Union Budget 2026 signals a decisive shift in how India is approaching technology, from adoption to strategic capability building.” Highlighting the emphasis on AI, semiconductors, cloud and data infrastructure, Gurnani noted that “Leadership in the digital economy is built bottom-up, starting with strong foundations.”

Gurnani emphasised that the Budget links technological ambition with inclusion and competitiveness, saying that aligning AI investments with skills development, workforce readiness and MSME enablement means that “Scale, inclusion and competitiveness must move together.” Notably, he pointed to initiatives such as “Bharat Vistar, which provides farmers local-language, data-driven crop guidance” and “The Centre of Excellence in AI for Education, which promotes research into AI tools for improving the quality of learning.” These examples illustrate how technology policy is being connected to real-world outcomes across sectors and regions.

Leaders in mobility and operational services also saw strategic value in the Budget’s broader agenda. Sriram Kannan, Founder and CEO, Routematic, observed that “Budget 2026 sends a strong signal on where India’s next phase of growth will come from, through sustained public capex, the creation of rare-earth magnet corridors to support EV and advanced manufacturing, and the proposed MSME Growth Fund to help smaller enterprises scale.” He noted that as manufacturing and services deepen in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities, enterprises will increasingly focus on operational challenges such as employee mobility. Kannan stressed that organised, technology-enabled workforce mobility will be critical to ensure policy measures translate into productivity gains and workforce participation improvements.

The real estate industry responded positively to measures designed to unlock value and broaden investment channels. Hardeep Dayal, President – Commercial, Bhartiya Urban, described the Government’s introduction of dedicated REITs for CPSE assets as “An innovative step for India’s real estate and capital markets.” He explained that by unlocking value from under-utilised government property and recycling capital into new infrastructure, the Government has created “A transparent, market-driven pathway for investment.” Dayal said these reforms are expected to deepen liquidity, broaden the investor base and strengthen commercial real estate markets across India.

Finally, advisory professionals pointed to tax reforms that can support both domestic and global service engagement. CA Nidhi Goyal, Managing Director, Avinav Consulting and Partner, Nivesa Advisors LLP, said the Budget is “Setting a long term vision for India's services sector; expanding its global market share; creating employment, analysing impact arising due to artificial intelligence and tax reforms for services sector such as tax certainty to BPO, clubbing of services under IT services with a common safe harbour margin of 15.5%.” Goyal described these measures as enhancing the appeal of India’s services ecosystem for both domestic and international players.

Taken together, reactions from across sectors indicate that Budget 2026 is being read as a strategic document focused on long-term competitiveness, structural capability building and inclusive growth. By combining digital infrastructure incentives, services tax clarity and capital-market reforms, the Budget sends a consistent signal that India is aiming to strengthen its position as a global hub for services, digital innovation and investment.

The report lays out solutions that could reduce PM2.5 levels significantly, mitigate business losses and support the creation of new jobs

Air pollution continues to create a significant burden for the economy through reduced productivity, unplanned absences, lower consumer activity, and increasing healthcare expenditure.

This report follows a previous study from 2021 by Dalberg Advisors, Air Pollution in India and the Impact on Business, which quantified the economic losses due to particulate matter (PM2.5) pollution levels in India. The 2021 study estimated these economic losses at USD 95 billion annually, equivalent to 3% of India’s GDP.

Despite recent improvements due to initiatives by national and state governments and city authorities, average PM2.5 levels in many cities remain significantly above national standards.

The new report evaluates high-impact solutions across key economic sectors: transport, industry, agriculture, waste, power, construction, and residential combustion. If implemented effectively, these solutions could:

• reduce PM2.5 levels by ~20% by 2030 from current levels;

• generate USD 220 billion in economic opportunity;

• avert USD 85 billion in business losses by 2030;

• avoid nearly 10 million Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) annually

• support approximately 1.4 million job transitions and new jobs

Speaking on the launch of the report, Jagjeet Sareen, Partner and India Head, Dalberg Advisors said, “Clean air is not only a public health priority but also an economic imperative. This analysis highlights where targeted investments can deliver measurable returns for businesses, workers, and the broader economy.”

Clean Air Fund’s recent report, The State of Global Air Quality Funding 2025, shows an increase in air quality investments from development finance institutions flowing to South Asia. This growing priority for development donors is an opportunity for South Asian countries to unlock further public and private capital that will deliver economic, health and environmental benefits.

Shirish Sinha, Executive Director of Programmes at Clean Air Fund added, “Asia’s development financial institutions and agencies are some of the biggest players in international public finance, and countries across the continent are working to tackle air pollution. Development donors recognise that funding clean air measures is an opportunity to see multiple returns on investment through climate and health co-benefits, while catalysing private capital in South Asian countries. India has demonstrated significant progress through the National Clean Air Programme. The next step is to scale proven solutions and align clean air more closely with India’s economic and development priorities.”

The report also outlines five enabling actions critical for scale:

1. crowding in private capital;

2. prototyping solutions in priority regions;

3. building a skilled green workforce;

4. strengthening community participation; and

5. investing in digital public infrastructure.

Together, these steps can help position clean air as a driver of growth and resilience. Integrating clean-air action into India’s economic planning can improve public health, enhance productivity, and strengthen long-term competitiveness.

The project will deliver clean, affordable solar solutions in South Africa and India, driving down operational costs and advancing sustainability for Candi’s clients. Candi’s portfolio has more than doubled to 220+ MWp in just 18 months, driven by 85 MWp of open-access projects in India and flagship sites including auto components manufacturer Pricol Limited in India, Ngwenya Lodge in South Africa, and the solar plant at Kings Park Stadium HQ, home of The Sharks rugby team. Candi also powers leading corporations such as IFF, Toyota, Pick n Pay, and Suryalakshmi Cotton Mills - proving the strength of its model across manufacturing, retail, and commercial real estate.

• USD 6.5 million from the Canada-IFC Blended Climate Finance Platform

• up to USD 42 million equivalent for IFC’s own account (composed of rands, rupees, and US dollars) a portion of which is supported by IFC’s Managed Co-lending Portfolio Program (MCPP).

• A concessional loan of up to USD 10 million (mixed local rands and rupees) from IFC acting in its capacity as the implementing entity of the Climate Investment Funds' Clean Technology Fund.

“This is the largest funding facility we have ever closed,” said Bruno Rauis, Director of Candi Solar. “It propels us into our next phase of growth and strengthens our ambition to be the leading distributed energy partner in India, South Africa, and beyond. IFC’s involvement is catalytic - it builds confidence among global investors and enables us to access larger pools of capital to scale faster in the years ahead.”
 

“This milestone marks an inflection point for Candi Solar in India,” said Nishant Sood, Managing Director of Candi Solar. “It empowers us to scale distributed projects faster, deliver substantial energy savings for our clients, and advance India’s net-zero pathway. IFC’s trust is a strong endorsement of our model — which has placed us among India’s leading distributed solar developers — and reflects the increasing depth and significance of the sector in a rapidly expanding market”

A Gateway for Global Capital

By blending concessional and commercial components, the IFC-led multicurrency facility (including local currency), which will support Candi’s growth across key regions for distributed generation, is structured to absorb early-stage financial, operational, and performance risks while maintaining stringent ESG and governance standards. This financing structure is not just about enabling Candi’s next phase; it is also about mobilising other global capital to an asset class once considered “too risky.”

“This facility is a strong validation of our results-based model and its ability to deliver reliable returns,” said KJ Mahoney, Head of Capital Structuring at Candi Solar. “IFC’s involvement demonstrates that distributed solar can meet the highest standards of performance, governance, and impact, paving the way for global investors to support this sector at scale.”

“At IFC, we see distributed solar as a powerful lever for accelerating energy access and efficiency in emerging markets,” said Claudia Conceicao, IFC Regional Director for Southern Africa. “Our partnership with Candi Solar demonstrates how innovative financing models can unlock private capital at scale - supporting small and medium-sized businesses to create jobs, reduce energy costs, and strengthen operational resilience.”
 

Impact Beyond Megawatts

The facility will directly finance nearly 200 MWp of new projects, with a broader impact on:

• Sustainability - advancing clean energy adoption across key industrial clusters to lower emissions.

• Resilience - strengthening grid stability for businesses and communities facing power volatility.

• Employment & supply chains - creating jobs and building local industrial capacity.

• Affordability - giving companies predictable energy costs and long-term competitiveness.

This round follows Candi’s USD 24 million equity and mezzanine raise earlier this year, laying the foundation for a high double-digit-million Series D in 2026.
 

A Clear Runway to 2026

With this milestone, Candi Solar is preparing for its next growth chapter. By 2026, the company aims to expand its contracted portfolio beyond 400 MWp across India and South Africa, while deepening its performance-linked product suite including storage energy solutions. Candi’s evolution reflects a bigger global story: distributed solar in emerging markets is no longer aspirational - it is proven, investable, and central to the world’s clean energy transition.

With a contracted portfolio of over 200 MWp, Candi delivers reliable, affordable, and sustainable power while absorbing the technical and performance risks on behalf of its clients.
