Mumbai, 28 October 2025: Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Ltd. (IREDA) today received an upgrade in its long-term issuer credit rating from S&P Global Ratings, moving to ‘BBB’ from ‘BBB–’, with Stable Outlook. The short-term rating has also been revised to ‘A-2’ from ‘A-3’.
This upgrade brings IREDA’s international credit rating in line with India’s sovereign credit rating, underscoring the company’s strategic importance to the nation’s renewable energy mission.
S&P Global Ratings considered IREDA’s robust asset quality, sound capitalization and strong liquidity profile as key factors behind the upgrade.

Commenting on the development, Shri Pradip Kumar Das, Chairman & Managing Director, IREDA, said: “We are delighted with this upgrade by S&P Global Ratings, which not only validates IREDA’s financial strength but also highlights our critical role in India’s renewable energy transition. This alignment with the sovereign rating will enable us to access capital more competitively and deepen investor confidence in our long-term strategy.”
