Rating Rationale

­Acuité has downgraded the long-term rating to ‘ACUITE D’ (read as ACUITE D) from 'ACUITE C' (read as ACUITE C) and the short-term rating to ‘ACUITE D’ (read as ACUITE D) from ‘ACUITE A4’ (read as ACUITE A four) on the Rs. 4.50 crore bank facilities of Icon Design Automation Private Limited (IDAPL) .

Acuite has reaffirmed its proposed long-term rating of ‘ACUITE C’ (read as ACUITE C) and proposed short-term rating of ‘ACUITE A4’ (read as ACUITE A Four) on the  Rs. 7.50 Cr. bank loan facility of Icon Design Automation Private Limited (IDAPL).

The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” and is based on the best available information.

Rationale for Downgrade

The downgrade is based on the Publicly available information, owing to delays in servicing the long-term debt obligations by Icon Design Automation Private Limited (IDAPL).

Unsupported Rating

­Not Applicable

 
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 is, therefore, being flagged as “Issuer not-cooperating”, in line with prevailing SEBI regulations and Acuité’s policies.­
