Geographic Concentration Risk
Significant concentration in India, though international trading subsidiaries provide some geographic diversification.
Third Party Dependencies
Dependent on dividend income from listed group companies (GCPL, GPL, GAVL) to service interest expenses.
Credit & Counterparty Risk
Adjusted gearing increased to 5.98 times as of March 31, 2025, from 4.03 times in 2023, primarily due to infusions into Godrej Capital.
