Rating Rationale
Acuité has downgraded its long-term rating to 'ACUITE C’ (read as ACUITE C) from ‘ACUITE BB-’ (read as ACUITE Double B Minus) on the Rs. 53.00 Cr. bank facilities and its short-term rating to ‘ACUITE A4’ (read as ACUITE A four) from ‘ACUITE A4+’ (read as ACUITE A Four Plus) on the Rs. 30.00 Cr. bank facilities of Sri Satya Sai Infrastructure Private Limited (SSSIPL).
The rating is now flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” on account of information risk and is based on the best available information.
Rationale of Rating Downgrade:
The rating downgrade is on account of multiple delays in debt servicing being reflecting in the Credit Information Report of the issuer during Jan 2026 - April 2026.

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 surveilance & 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 unwilingness to provide information could be a sign of potential deterioration in its overal credit quality. This rating is, therefore, being flagged as “Issuer not-cooperating”, in line with prevailing SEBI regulations and Acuité’s policies.
