Rating Rationale

­­Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE B-’ (read as ACUITE B minus) and the short term rating of ‘ACUITE A4’ (read as ACUITE A four) on the Rs.10.35 crore bank facilities of The Canara Workshops Limited (TCWL). The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not Cooperating” and is based on the best available information.


About the Company

The company manufactures leaf springs and related components used in commercial and passenger vehicles. The facility is equipped with rolling mill with capacity of 7,000 TPA and machining capacity of 7,200 TPA.

 
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 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 non-cooperation 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.
