Asian Credit Monitor: Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services – INR Bond Default

We chose to study Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services Ltd (ILFS)’s default case. The company is engaged in infrastructure development and financing activities in India. Since the start of June 2018, the company has defaulted on a series of payments, resulting in rating downgrades. More recently, in January 2019, ILFS’ affiliated company Jharkhand Road Projects Implementation Company failed to pay INR760m due to its lenders. This resulted in CRISIL downgrading the bonds to D, which amounts to junk status. ILFS is one of the most important companies in the Indian infrastructure space and this default indicates signs of worry for investors.
