Among major industries, credit growth (y-o-y) to 'basic metal & metal products' and 'textiles' accelerated in August 2023 as compared with the corresponding month of the previous year, while that to 'chemicals & chemical products', 'food processing' and 'infrastructure' decelerated.

• Credit growth to services sector accelerated to 20.7 per cent (y-o-y) in August 2023 from 17.4 per cent a year ago, primarily due to 'Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs)' and 'commercial real estate'.

• Personal loans growth decelerated to 18.3 per cent (y-o-y) in August 2023 (19.4 per cent a year ago), due to moderation in credit to housing.
