Rating Rationale

­Acuite has reaffirmed the long term rating of 'ACUITE A-' (read as ACUITE A minus) on the Rs. 507 Cr. bank facilities of RDB Primarc Techno Park LLP. The outlook remains 'Stable'.
Further Acuite has assigned the long term rating of 'ACUITE A-' (read as ACUITE A minus)  and short term rating of 'ACUITE A1' (read as ACUITE A one) on the Rs. 80.50 Cr. bank facilities of RDB Primarc Techno Park LLP. The outlook is 'Stable'.

Rationale for Rating:
The rating derives comfort from experienced management in real estate operations, favourable locational advantage, and a stabilized operating profile, with the LLP has already generated total revenue of approx. Rs. 107 crores in FY26. The tenant profile largely comprises large corporates and multinational companies (MNCs), providing healthy visibility of cash flows and significantly mitigating counterparty credit risk. Supported by its strategic location, the firm continues to benefit from strong tenant traction and the ability to command relatively higher rental rates, underpinning revenue stability and growth. The liquidity position remains adequate, providing comfort in meeting ongoing debt-servicing obligations, supported by steady cash flow generation, an escrow-controlled rental mechanism, and maintenance of the debt service reserve account (DSRA). The rating also remains sensitive to timely rent collections, potential cost escalations, and inherent lease renewal risks.

Key Rating Drivers

Strengths

Locational Advantage and reputed lessee profile
The property, spanning approximately 14.85 lakh sq. ft., is located in one of Kolkata’s prime central business districts (CBD) in West Bengal. It enjoys excellent connectivity, with close proximity to a metro station and the airport, ensuring ease of access and convenience. The tenant profile includes several MNCs and corporates such as IBM India Private Limited, Concentrix Daksh Services India Private Limited, Hyland Software Solutions India LLP, Bharti Airtel Ltd. Nestle India Limited, Khadim India Limited, Linde India Limited , Lexmark International Private Limited etc, Also, they are planning to open a food court in their premises with reputed food brands . The property is being managed by CBRE. Acuite believes that the strategic location of the asset, coupled with its strong and reputed tenant base, will continue to support the firm’s prospects going forward.

Scale of Operation:
Since the acquisition of the building by the LLP in December 2024, RDB generated revenue of Rs. 33.97 crore in FY25 from rental, CAM, and parking income, followed by a healthy scale-up to Rs. 107 crore in FY26, reflecting stabilised operations. Revenue growth during FY25–26 was supported by rent commencement for five new tenants, including Linde India Ltd. and GreenWave Technologies (the balance being kiosk counters) at higher per-square-foot rental levels, along with additional space taken up by existing tenants and general escalation in rental rates. Their lease agreements include an escalation clause of 15% every three years. Owing to strong demand and locational advantage, any vacated space is expected to be re-leased at higher rentals, supporting medium-term revenue growth.
The firm plans to develop a 12,500 sq ft food court, for which an LOI has been signed with KFC, including a minimum guarantee and revenue-sharing arrangement. KFC will relocate to the food court, vacating its current space. The firm is also in advanced discussions with Domino’s and Subway. The estimated project cost is Rs. 1.30 crore, to be funded through internal accruals, and the facility is expected to be operational from the last quarter of FY26–27.Additionally, the firm has a 90,000 sq ft garden podium area that will be developed into a sports zone (box football, box cricket, pickleball, paddle court), along with a café, lounge, kiosks, and a dedicated space/lawn for corporate events. For operating the sports zone, they are in the process of signing an LOI with “Sportsplex,” with a revenue-sharing arrangement of 75% (firm) : 25% (operator). This facility is expected to be operational by the end of the current year. The estimated cost for developing the sports courts is approximately Rs. 60 lakh. Acuite believes that the sustained revenue growth, strong tenant profile, locational advantage and contractual rental escalations provide good medium-term cash-flow visibility. The planned food court and sports zone developments are expected to further support revenue diversification.


Weaknesses

Average Financial Risk profile:
The financial risk profile remains average, characterized by a modest net worth, very high gearing, and average coverage indicators. Total tangible net worth stood at Rs.37.87 crore as on FY25. Total borrowings amounted to Rs.623.40 crore, comprising LRD loans of Rs.491 crore, unsecured loans from directors and promoters of Rs.118.95 crore, and CPLTD of Rs.13.45 crore. Consequently, the gearing level remained elevated at 16.46 times as on FY25.The LLP is paying interest on USL @12% as well as on partners current capital account. However, the LLP is expected to pay of USL of Rs.90 crores in FY 27 though this Axis bank enhancement and post FY 27 it is expected to Rs.2.5 crores each. Interest coverage remained modest, with the ICR at 1.04 times in FY25. However, the company has received sanction for an enhancement of Rs.90 crore, of which Rs.45 crore has already been disbursed in April 2026 and utilised towards repayment of unsecured loans from promoters and directors. The balance Rs.45 crore is expected to be disbursed by Q1 FY27, which will also be utilized to further reduce the unsecured loan component. Acuite believes that the financial risk profile is expected to improve over the medium term, supported by reduction in promoter unsecured loans and an increase in cash accruals, which should result in gradual improvement in leverage and coverage metrics.

Moderate Customer Concentration Risk
Since IBM India Private Limited and Concentrix Daksh services India private limited holds 42% of the total property area and 44% as a share of revenue, leading to customer moderate concentration risk. Acuité believes that any change in the business plan of the lessee along with their non-renewal or early exit might impact the revenues and margins of the firm. This risk is partially mitigated by the fact that the has renewed their contract and tenancy in the property in the past.

Assessment of Adequacy of Credit Enhancement under various scenarios including stress scenarios (applicable for ratings factoring specified support considerations with or without the “CE” suffix)

The LLP maintains a Debt Service Reserve Account (DSRA) equivalent to 2 months of interest and instalment repayment obligation for both Axis Bank and Bank of Maharashtra along with the ESCROW mechanism.

Stress Case scenario :
Acuite believes that, given the presence of DSRA mechanism, The LLP will be able to service its debt on time, even in a stress scenario.

The firm maintains escrow mechanisms, ensuring that all cash flows—including, but not limited to, lease rentals, other charges received from lessees, insurance proceeds, and proceeds from the disposal of assets—are deposited into the escrow account. The firm has created a two-month DSRA (interest and principal) with both Bank of Maharashtra (BOM) and Axis Bank. As on date, a Debt Service Reserve Account (DSRA) of Rs. 10.45 crore is maintained with Axis Bank., which covers debt servicing requirements for both Axis Bank and BOM facilities. Acuite believes that the firm’s liquidity will remain adequate over the near to medium term, supported by a comfortable average DSCR of 1.31 times over FY27–FY31 and overall DSCR of 1.54 times during the overall tenure of LRD facility.
