Rating Rationale

­Acuite has downgraded the long-term rating to 'ACUITE BB+' (read as ACUITE Double B Plus) from 'ACUITE BBB-' (read as ACUITE Triple B Minus) and short-term rating to ‘ACUITE A4+’ (read as ACUITE A four plus) from ‘ACUITE A3’ (read as ACUITE A three) to the Rs.172.00 crore bank facilities of JMC Constructions Private Limited (JMC).

The rating is now flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” and is based on the best information available. The rating is downgraded on account of information risk.

About the Company

In 1999, the proprietorship firm was reconstituted as partnership firm - ‘M/s A Srenevasulu & Co’ by Mr. A Srenevasulu and other family members. In June 2008, the firm changed its constitution to private limited company and currently is promoted by Mr. A Srenevasulu, Mr. A Jayararamulu, Mr. K Chandrasekhar and other family members. JMC, a family-owned business, undertakes civil construction activities primarily of Roads and Highways. JMC is a ‘Special Class’ contractor registered with Government of Andhra Pradesh, Telanpana, Karnataka, Bihar and undertakes work for Public Works Department, Roads & Buildings Department, State and National Highway development authorities.

 
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.
