Why Indian Banks aren’t growing like before | The Daily Brief

Описание: In today's episode of The Daily Brief, we cover 2 major stories shaping the Indian economy and global markets:

1. Indian Banks Losing Their Shine
India’s banking sector is slowing down — credit growth is weakening, margins are getting squeezed, and cheap deposits are drying up. Public banks are chasing loan volumes in priority sectors, while private banks are playing it safe for profitability. Treasury gains gave profits a temporary boost, but the outlook remains uncertain.

2. Batteries Powering a New Business Model
A new opportunity is emerging in India’s power market — buy cheap solar power in the afternoon, store it in batteries, and sell it at peak prices in the evening. Ember’s analysis shows it can be profitable, but high costs, tech risks, and regulatory hurdles mean the business is far from easy.
