Brickwork Ratings (BWR) had last rated the bank loan facilities of Rs.12.40 Crs on 14-Feb-2023 by downgrading the ratings to BWR B/Stable and reaffirm the short-term ratings at BWR A4 ISSUER NOT COOPERATING*. BWR has consistently taken up with the company through emails and telephone calls to provide the requisite information for the review of the ratings. Despite the best efforts of BWR to get at least the minimum required information for a review, the company has not been submitting the monthly “No Default Statement” (NDS) as required by regulatory guidelines and remains to be non-cooperative. Due to the lack of management cooperation, BWR is unable to assess the company’s financial performance and its ability to service its debt and maintain a valid rating. Hence, owing to lack of management cooperation, Brickwork Ratings downgrades the long-term to BWR B-/Stable, reaffirms the short-term ratings at BWR A4 and continues the rating under ISSUER NOT COOPERATING* category, based on best available information.
The lenders/investors may note to exercise due caution while using the 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 RATING
Information 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 ratings 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.
