RATING ACTION / OUTLOOK

BWR has upgraded the long term rating and reaffirmed the short term rating of the bank facilities sanctioned to Praveedh Decor Pvt Ltd at BWR BB-(Stable) Upgrade/A4 Reaffirmed. The rating upgradation, inter-alia, factors like experience management, moderate gearing ratio, strong debt protection metrics, diversified customer concentration, moderate profitability and expansion plans. However, the rating is constrained by the risk of moderate net worth, along with the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic on the industry. 
 
BWR has essentially relied upon the audited financial statements of Praveedh Decor Pvt Ltd up to FY20, provisional financials of FY21, and projected financial statements of FY22, publicly available information and information/clarifications provided by the entity’s management.
 
BWR believes that the Praveedh Decor Pvt Ltd  business risk profile will be maintained over the medium term. The 'Stable' outlook indicates a low likelihood of rating change over the medium term. The rating outlook may be revised to 'Positive' in case the revenues and profit show sustained improvement. The rating outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if the revenues go down and profit margins show lower than expected figures

Going forward the ability of the company to improve its risk of moderate net worth, along with the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic would be its key rating sensitivity.
