Rating Rationale

­­­Acuité has downgraded the long-term rating to ‘ACUITE B+’ (read as ACUITE B plus) from 'ACUITE BB' (read as ACUITE double B) and short term rating to ‘ACUITE A4’ (read as ACUITE A four) from ‘ACUITE A4+’ (read as ACUITE A four plus) on the Rs. 9.25 crore bank facilities of K V Prateek Enterprises on account of information risk. The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” and is based on the best available information.


About the Company

­Established in 1991, K V Prateek Enterprises (KVPE) is a New-Delhi based proprietorship firm promoted by Mr. Madan Mehta engaged in laying and commissioning of EHV cables up to the level of 400KV, installation of third rail/conductor rail for metro and monorail projects, erection and commissioning of grid sub-stations up to the voltage of 220KV and AMCs for complete EHV systems (66KV & 33KVnetwork) for state government, PSU’s and private sector.

 
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.
