Theoretical and Applied Economics, 2016, vol. XXIII, issue 3(608), Autumn, 197-204

Abstract: The paper models default probabilities for Indian companies in Black-Scholes- Metron (BSM) framework. The objective Probability of Default (PD) estimates are found to be higher for firms registered with Board of Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR). The proposed method can be applied to obtain direct PD estimates of companies to track their default status, calculate credit capital and corporate pricing by investors and financial institutions.
