Most large funding delays arise from credit committee objections , DSCR sustainability concerns , capital structuring gaps, sanction-stage risk exposure, or covenant alignment issues.
As a project finance consultant advising large-ticket mandates across India, ClariScore becomes relevant when a funding process is already active — but approval clarity is weakening, lender comfort is reducing, and sanction risk is increasing.
