India Inc sends mixed signals on H2 FY25 capital expenditure path

India Inc is adopting a prudent stance towards their capital expenditure (capex) for the latter half of the fiscal year concluding in March 2025 following lackluster earnings in the initial months amidst worldwide challenges, as indicated by corporate executives.

The latest records from the monetary policy gathering held in October reveal the Reserve Bank of India’s positive outlook on the rise of private investments. The RBI highlighted the increasing traction in private corporate investments, noted an enhancing trend in seasonally adjusted capacity utilization in the initial quarter of FY25, and underlined the robust financial positions of both banks and corporations. These aspects play crucial roles as the main propellants of the gross domestic product: consumption and investment.
