RATING ACTION / OUTLOOK

The ratings assigned to the bank loan facilities of PRG International Electricals Pvt Ltd (PREP or the Company) factor in the experience of promoters, growth in revenues, and a reputed client base. The revenues of the company have improved from Rs.202.93 crores in FY21 to Rs.288.08 crores during FY22 and are expected to improve to Rs.320 in FY23 and Rs.380 crores in FY24. On a provisional basis, the company has achieved revenues of Rs.153 crores during 6MFY23 (i.e up to September 2022). The ratings are, however, constrained by thin profit margins, low debt coverage ratios, high gearing and commodity prices, and business concentration risks. 

RATING OUTLOOK 
BWR believes PRG International Electricals Pvt. Ltd.'s business risk profile will be maintained over the medium term. The ‘Stable’ outlook indicates a low likelihood of rating change over the medium term.
