BWR has downgraded the long-term rating to "BWR B/Stable" and reaffirmed the short-term rating at "BWR A4" for the bank loan facilities of Rs. 22.28 Crs of “ Aakriti Super Snacks Pvt. Ltd. ” and continues the ratings under the 'Issuer Not Cooperating' category as the issuer did not cooperate.
Going forward, BWR has consistently reached out to the issuer to provide the required information over email, apart from telephonic communication, but no response has been received from the client. Further, BWR is unable to reach the banker; the banker's feedback regarding the conduct of the account is not available. Despite the best efforts of BWR to get at least the minimum required information for the review, the entity has not provided the same. In the absence of adequate information from the entity, BWR is unable to assess the entity's financial performance and its ability to service its debt and maintain a valid rating.
The lenders/investors may note to exercise due caution while using the above rating, which mentions "Issuer Not Cooperating," since the rating lacks any projections or forward-looking component, as it is arrived at based on the best available information without any management/banker's interaction.
LIMITATIONS OF THE RATINGInformation availability risk is a key factor in the assessment of credit risk as generally, non-cooperation by the rated entities to provide required information for a review of the assigned rating may also be accompanied by financial stress. Users of the credit rating should therefore take into account possible deterioration in the credit quality of the rated entity arising from its non-transparency withholding of information required for a review of the rating
