Rating Rationale |
Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE B+’ (read as ACUITE B plus) on the Rs. 7.50 crore bank facilities of Nikunj Industries (NI). The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not Cooperating” based 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 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 notcooperating”, 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 endeavoured 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.
