IRFC Chairman and MD Manoj Kumar Dubey said the company plans to increase its share of overseas borrowing while continuing strong domestic fundraising. With expanding investments in metro, ports and logistics projects, IRFC’s net interest margins are rising and expected to keep improving as the portfolio shifts beyond its traditional rail financing. Despite the stock declining more than 23% over the past year, the company expects strong disbursements and higher profitability going forward.
