Agency rationale

Note: CRISIL's AAA is a corporate credit rating based on the support Standard Chartered's Indian branches receive from the UK parent. We found no separate rating for its fixed deposits.

How to read these ratings
  • Scale: AAA is the highest long-term grade (lowest credit risk), then AA (very low risk), A (low risk) and BBB (moderate risk, the lowest investment grade). A + or − moves a grade up or down a notch. Short-term ratings such as A1+ cover obligations of up to a year.
  • Outlook: Stable, Positive or Negative is the agency's view of where the rating is likely to go over the next one to two years. Rating watch means the agency is reviewing the rating after a specific event, such as a change of owner.
  • Instrument: a rating belongs to a specific instrument, not to the whole bank. Tier I (AT1) and Tier II bonds can be written down if the RBI declares a bank non-viable, so they are usually rated no higher than the bank's deposits.
  • Headline grade: we use the rating on fixed deposits where an agency gives one; otherwise the issuer or Tier II rating. We take each agency's latest rating and show the lowest, so the headline is never more generous than any agency's latest view.
  • A rating is an opinion about the ability to repay on time. It is not a guarantee or a recommendation. Whatever the rating, deposits in a bank are insured by DICGC up to ₹5 lakh per depositor per bank (principal and interest together).

Sources: we list a rating only when we can point to the document that states it: the agency's own rating rationale, the bank's Regulation 30 filing on the NSE or BSE, a rating letter, or the bank's own rating page. A weekly automated check re-opens each linked document to confirm it still shows the grade and scans stock-exchange announcements for new rating filings. Last checked: 9 Nov 2026.
