Moderation in growth was primarily driven by subdued growth in infrastructure, a major constituent of the segment. • Credit growth in services sector moderated to 17.6 per cent (y-o-y) in June 2026 as against 22.4 per cent a year ago. While credit in ‘commercial real estate’ marked buoyant expansion, credit growth in ‘trade’ and ‘transport operators’ segments witnessed moderation. • Retail loans growth accelerated to 20.3 per cent (y-o-y) in June 2026 compared to 14.3 per cent a year ago. Within retail loans, ‘housing’, ‘vehicle’ and ‘loans against gold jewellery’ segments displayed robust credit growth.
