Rating Rationale

Acuité has withdrawn the long term rating on the Pass Through Certificates (PTCs) of Rs. 0.62 Cr. issued by NORTHERN ARC 2021 SBL MARINA (the trust) under a securitisation transaction originated by SVAKARMA FINANCE PVT LTD (SFPL) (The Originator). The PTCs are backed by a pool of secured and unsecured MSME loans with principal outstanding of Rs. 1.18 Cr. (including Rs. 0.56 Cr of over collateralisation). The transaction also includes Equity Tranche PTCs of Rs. 0.15 Cr, and any redemption of Equity Tranche PTCs shall be fully subordinated to the Series A1 PTCs payments.

The transaction has been paid in full. It has also been redeemed and all the contractual obligations and pay-outs to the investors have been duly completed. Hence, the rating is being withdrawn without assigning any rating. The rating withdrawal is in accordance with Acuité's policy on withdrawal of rating as applicable to the respective instrument/facility, and pursuant to a request received from the company in this regard, and the No Dues Confirmation received from the trustee.

Note on Complexity Levels of the Rated Instrument
­In order to inform the investors about complexity of instruments, Acuité has categorized such instruments in three levels: Simple, Complex and Highly Complex. Acuite’s categorisation of the instruments across the three categories is based on factors like variability of the returns to the investors, uncertainty in cash flow patterns, number of counterparties and general understanding of the instrument by the market. It has to be understood that complexity is different from credit risk and even an instrument categorized as 'Simple' can carry high levels of risk. For more details, please refer Rating Criteria “Complexity Level Of Financial Instruments” on www.acuite.in
