The Reserve Bank of India reported a 25.8% increase in proposals for external commercial borrowings (ECB) in May, totaling over $4.73 billion. The Indian Railway Finance Corporation led with $1.11 billion, while NTPC sought $750 million. This surge reflects strong NRI interest in higher returns from ECBs and related initiatives, indicating potential liquidity inflows for banks.

• Indian Railway Finance Corporation: $1.11 billion

• NTPC: $750 million

The trend may enhance funding availability for infrastructure projects and boost market sentiment.
