Further the total debt of $620.7 billion as a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) was 19.9 per cent and the debt service ratio was 5.2 per cent.
Experts also said India cannot be compared with Sri Lanka that is into severe economic crisis.
The share of central government in short term debt - maturing in a year's time - is only $7.7 billion out of the total $267 billion.
