The long-term debt, estimated at US$ 499.1 billion, constituted the largest chunk of 80.4 %, while the short-term debt, at US$ 121.7 billion, accounted for 19.6 % of the total. As at end-March 2022, sovereign external debt (SED) amounted to US$ 130.7 billion, increasing by 17.1 % over the level a year ago, reflecting the additional allocation of SDRs by the IMF during 2021-22. The debt service ratio fell to 5.2 % during 2021-22 from 8.2 % during 2020-21 due to buoyancy in current receipts and a decline in debt service payments.
