Rating Rationale
­Acuité has downgraded the long term rating to 'ACUITE BB' (read as ACUITE double B) from ‘ACUITE BB+’ (read as ACUITE double B plus) on the Rs.9.00 Cr. bank facilities of Anjali Kitchenware Private Limited (AKPL). This rating is now an indicative rating and is based on best available information.  The rating is downgraded on account of information risk.

About the Company
­Mumbai based, AKPL was initially incorporated in 1974 as a partnership firm by Late Mr. Atmaram Patel. Later, the partnership firm was converted into a private limited company in 2007. The day to day operations are currently handled by the Mr. Sanjay Patel, son of Mr. Atmaram Patel. The company is currently engaged in manufacturing of all types of kitchenware items including non-stick cooking ware. The company has two manufacturing facilities located in Malad and Vasai of Maharashtra.
 
Non-cooperation by the issuer/borrower
­Acuité has been requesting for data, information and undertakings from the rated entity for conducting surveillance & review of the rating. However, the issuer / borrower failed to submit such information before the due date. Acuité believes that information risk is a critical component in such ratings, and noncooperation by the issuer along with an unwillingness to provide information could be a sign of potential deterioration in its overall credit quality. This rating is therefore being flagged as “Issuer not-cooperating”, in line with prevailing SEBI regulations and Acuité’s policies. 
 
Limitation regarding information availability
­The rating is based on information available from sources other than the issuer / borrower (in the absence of information provided by the issuer / borrower). Acuité endeavored to gather information about the entity / industry from the public domain. Therefore, Acuité cautions lenders and investors regarding the use of such information, on which the indicative credit rating is based.
