Shadow Banking Crisis and the
Indian Economy
Rohini Sanyal, Research Economist, India
September 2018 – The Crisis
DSP Mutual Fund starts
selling commercial
papers of DHFL in the
secondary market at a
discount
Credit Rating agencies
downgrade IL&FS debt
instruments
IL&FS defaults on a series of
payment obligations
Total Debt – INR 910bn
India’s own Near-Lehman Moment
Lehman Brothers, an investment bank, invested in
mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and collateral
debt obligations (CDOs) in 2003
Defaulted on subprime mortgages, starting 2007,
due to poor credit appraisal
Moody’s Investor service announced review of
credit rating
Filed for bankruptcy on September 15, 2008
$639 billion in assets and $619 billion in debt
The systemically important NBFC, IL&FS, had
undertaken many important infrastructure project
Financed long term projects by raising short and
long-term bonds
Defaulted in meeting its payment obligation
Credit Rating Agencies downgrade company’s
credit rating
Subsequent stock market crash
No bail-out package from Government Rapid intervention by Government helped
What led to the payment defaults?
Complex organizational structure – operating through:
 24 direct subsidiaries
 135 indirect subsidiaries
 6 joint ventures
 4 associates
Ambitious infrastructure projects that IL&FS had invested in
had their own inherent risk issues such as cost overruns,
protracted implementation, delayed or withheld
regulatory approval, natural calamities, and other
contingencies
• Spillover effects from IL&FS
• DSP MF selling DHFL commercial papers at discounted
rates sent warning signals to investors
• DHFL Net Debt had considerably increased in FY2018
On September 21, 2018, the benchmark NIFTY 50 index
plummeted by more than 100 points over the previous
day, and the DHFL stock plummeted by 42% the very day
In January 2019, rumors of DHFL siphoning money through
shell companies impacted its reputation, and led to
subsequent downgrades by rating agencies.

 Upward bias on bond yields as market moved to short
term treasury bills
 Indian Rupee was reeling under a depreciating bias
and tight liquidity conditions added more stress
Corporate Bonds and Liquidity
Trading in Corporate Bonds
 Corporate bond and debentures market faced rising
yields and a shortage of liquidity
 Yield differential of AAA-rated NBFCs and government
papers with similar maturity spiked after the crisis
Net Liquidity Injection or Absorption, INR Bn, 2018
 Primary lending source – Banks and Mutual Funds,
which became risk averse after the crisis
 Banking system recovering from severe NPAs stopped
lending to NBFCs and HFCs
 Sharp increase in cost of funds for the NBFC sector due
to asset liability mismatch

Commercial Paper Corporate Debt
 Debt mutual funds are a major source of credit for NBFCs
 Both retail and institutional investors reduced the amount
of investments in mutual funds
 Crisis caused a redemption pressure and mutual funds
had to liquidate their high-quality debt papers to meet
the sudden surge in redemption requests, impacting the
quality of returns
 Exposure of mutual fund to the NBFC sector through debt
funding declined by INR 795bn from July 2018 to October
2019, more prominently in commercial papers
 Percentage of total debt deployed by mutual funds to
the NBFC sector has fallen to 12.75% by the end October
2019 from 19.04% in July 2018
