On the macroeconomic front, the company expects India's gross domestic product to grow at 7.1 % in the base case for this fiscal, compared with 7.6% last fiscal. However it cautioned downside risks to base case. If the conflict and disruptions prolong through April, GDP growth could slow down to 6.8% this fiscal. This is mainly due to energy supply shortages and rising input and logistics costs. On the other hand, private consumption should continue to support growth, given the government has maintained energy supply and fuel prices for consumers.

Meanwhile, the company's board declared a dividend of Rs 9 per equity share of face value Re 1 each for financial year ending 31st December 2025, which will be paid on 8 May 2026.

Amish Mehta, managing director & CEO, Crisil, said, Our businesses saw growth during Q1 FY26, driven by customer centricity and differentiated, domain-led solutions. The ongoing geopolitical issues underscore the essentiality of our insights and risk solutions for clients navigating complexity.
