Rating Rationale
­­ACUITE has downgraded the long term rating to ‘ACUITE D’ (read as ACUITE D) from ‘ACUITE B+’ (read as ACUITE B plus) on the Rs. 9.60 crore bank facilities of Kamla Rice and General Mill (KRGM).

The downgrade is on the basis of  ongoing delays in their repayments of  the company . The company has been non-cooperative with us since the past four years and has not been submitting No Default Statement (NDS) also. The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” and is downgraded on account of information risk.

About the Company

The firm is engaged in the milling and processing of basmati and non-basmati rice and has an installed capacity of 1920 ton rice per month. The firm sells its products under the ‘Good wish’ brand name.
 
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 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).

Note on Complexity Levels of the Rated Instrument
­In order to inform the investors about complexity of instruments, Acuité has categorized such instruments in three levels: Simple, Complex and Highly Complex. Acuite’ s categorisation of the instruments across the three categories is based on factors like variability of the returns to the investors, uncertainty in cash flow patterns, number of counterparties and general understanding of the instrument by the market. It has to be understood that complexity is different from credit risk and even an instrument categorized as 'Simple' can carry high levels of risk.
