Rating Rationale

­­Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE B+’ (read as ACUITE B plus) on the Rs.13.00 crore bank facilities of Tirupati Oil Industries (TOI). The rating continues to be flagged as “Issuer Not-Cooperating” and is based on the best available information.

About the Company
­Established in 1996, Gujarat-based partnership firm Tirupati Oil Industries (TOI) is promoted by Mr. Babubhai Patel and his family. The firm is engaged in the business of cotton ginning. The firm also undertakes pressing and crushing operations. Oil produced out of crushing of cotton seed is sent to its refinery Tirupati Agro Oil Private Limited. The firm has 42 ginning machines and a pressing machine with capacity of 350 cotton bales per day. Besides, it also has 10 expellers with capacity of 900 tons of cottonseed oil per annum.
 
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 an 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.

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.
