Rating Rationale
­Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE B’ (read as ACUITE B) on the Rs. 9.00 crore bank facilities of R N Trading Co (RNTC). The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” and is based on the best available information.

About the Company
­RNTC was established in 2002 by Mr. Raj Kumar Agarwal to trade in plastic granules. From 2013, the firm began manufacturing plastic household goods and furniture (buckets, mugs, stools) at Kolkata, West Bengal with capacity of 160 tons per month. With plans to expand capacity further to 320 tons per month, the firm has set up a project at South 24 Parganas in West Bengal. The operations of which are expected to commence from January 2018. The firm procures raw materials (granules) from Haldia Petrochemicals Limited.
 
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). Acuité endeavored 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.
