Rating Rationale
­Acuité has downgraded the long-term rating to ‘ACUITE BB-’ (read as ACUITE double B minus) from 'ACUITE BB' (read as ACUITE dobule B) and reaffirmed the short term rating of ‘ACUITE A4+’ (read as ACUITE A four plus) on the Rs.16.50 Cr bank facilities of Eros Infrastructures Private Limited. The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” and is downgraded on account of information risk.

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 non-cooperation by the issuer along with unwillingness to provide information could be a sign of potential deterioration in its overall credit quality. This rating continues to be 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.
