The Reserve Bank of India reports NBFC credit growth of 15.4% year on year in September 2026, compared with 13.3% a year earlier. The figures come from the central bank's sectoral lending release and reflect its stated reporting coverage.

The Reserve Bank of India published its September 2026 sectoral credit figures for non-banking financial companies (NBFCs) on 6 November 2026. The central bank says the data were collected from major NBFCs and housing finance companies. This bulletin records the source statement; it is not an independent survey of every lender.

The RBI reported NBFC credit growth of 15.4% year on year in September 2026, against 13.3% in the corresponding period a year earlier. The comparison is taken directly from the RBI's own monthly credit-release text. The figures should be read within the scope of the RBI's reporting sample.

The original release contains sectoral details for agriculture, industry, services and retail loans, along with the supporting statement. Readers should consult the full RBI publication for definitions, sample coverage and whether a particular series is provisional or subsequently revised.
