Rationale for rating reaffirmation
­The rating continues to take into consideration significant improvement in capitalisation levels of the Trust Group as reflected in net worth of Rs. 1245.97 Cr. as on March 31, 2025 as against Rs. 1041.68 Cr. as on March 31, 2024. The rise in net worth has enabled the Group to further scale up its volumes in its key businesses viz. merchant banking and portfolio management services which have recently witnessed improved and sustained traction. The rating continues to factor in demonstrated track record of operations, the Group’s very competitive positioning in the domestic debt capital market, and established relationships with marquee clients and investors. The strengths are partially offset by susceptibility of revenue to volatility in capital market and credit acceptance of market in terms of structures of the debt instruments.
For the NCD rated ‘ACUITE AA+, the rating takes the additional support from the Debt Service Reserve Account (DSRA) and the Structured Payment Mechanism.

The rating on the Rs.175.00 Cr. NCD for TIAPL is converted from provisional to final rating as Acuite has received the following :
-Appointed SEBI registered Debenture Trustee details
-Creation of requisite DSRA ( Hypothecation Agreement )
-Debenture Trust Deed
-Final term sheet and confirmation from trustee regarding the compliance with all the terms and condition of term sheet.

The rating on the Rs. 325.00 Cr. proposed NCD for TIAPL is provisional and the final rating is subject to:
-Appointment of a SEBI registered Debenture Trustee
-Creation of requisite DSRA 
-Execution of signing of Trust Deed
-Receipt of the final term sheet and confirmation from trustee regarding the compliance with all the terms and condition of term sheet.

Analytical Approach

Extent of Consolidation

Rationale for Consolidation or Parent / Group / Govt. Support
­Acuité has taken a consolidated view on TIAPL and its subsidiaries collectively referred to as Trust group. This is because of the common promoters, shared brand name, significant operational and financial synergies between the companies.
Key Rating Drivers

Strengths
­Long operational track record coupled with competitive position in domestic capital market

The Trust Group has presence in merchant banking, wealth management, advisory business, and portfolio management services. The group offers a wide array of financial services to domestic and overseas clients. Trust Group has recently made a foray into overseas markets through Chanakya Capital Partners which is the advisory arm of the group catering to international clients. The group has been able to fortify its presence in both capital markets with its strong sourcing, structuring, underwriting, and distribution capabilities for debt issuances. Trust Group has been associated with some of the marquee issues across banks & NBFC's.  The group’s clientele includes leading banks, family offices, provident funds and high networth individuals (HNIs). The group has also demonstrated expertise in structuring and syndication of innovative and marquee structured transactions such as commercial mortgage-backed securities, climate and sustainable energy bonds, BASEL III bonds for various banks, credit enhanced state government bonds  in the past. 

Acuité believes that the group’s track record and established relationships with marquee clients and investors will provide a strong platform to leverage on the opportunities created due to expected buoyancy in the volumes of the bond market.

 Comfortable capitalisation levels boosted by substantial dividend payout
The Group’s capitalisation levels are comfortable, marked by net worth of Rs. 1,245.97 Cr. as on March 31, 2025 (March 31, 2024: Rs. 1,041.68 Cr.). The rise in net worth has enabled the Group to further scale up its volumes in its key businesses viz. merchant banking and portfolio management services. For FY2025, the borrowings for Trust Group stood at around Rs. 3657.52 Cr.  (March 31, 2024: Rs.2,825.41 Cr.) against a networth of Rs. 1,245.97 Cr. translating into gearing ratio of 2.94 times (March 31, 2024: 2.71 times). Acuité believes that the comfortable net worth will enable the Group to further scale up business volumes in its key businesses.

Healthy and sustained traction in key businesses’ performance to support earnings profile
Trust Group generates revenue from diverse sources viz. merchant banking business, portfolio management business, interest and dealing income from fixed investments portfolio, fixed income broking, mutual fund and lending business. The group’s earnings profile improved during FY2025 with profits (PAT) of Rs. 104.59 Cr. on total income of Rs. 405.23 Cr. (FY2024: PAT of Rs. 70.54 Cr. on total income of Rs. 236.89 Cr.). This performance was largely driven by uptick in the merchant banking volumes. Acuité believes the ability of the group to sustain the current trend in its key business’ performance and thereby drive earnings profile will be a key monitorable.

Weaknesses
­Susceptible to volatility in demand in the debt capital market
The revenues of the Trust Group are linked to level of activity in the bond markets, which in turn is linked to the overall economic activity. Any significant slowdown in the economy will result in lower demand for funds, which in turn would translate to lower volumes of bond issuances. The corporate bond market in India has mostly been dominated by issuances from non-banking finance companies. Occurrence of significant credit events such as credit cliffs i.e. sharp deterioration in credit quality, often results in a material decline in bond prices and impacts the liquidity of the counter. Such events could trigger demands for accelerated payments by lenders in case of pledge-based borrowings. The group has had exposure to certain bonds which faced credit cliffs in the recent past, however, they have been able to initiate prompt corrective action and materially curtail their exposures to these counters. Any significant concentration to a single bond that may face a credit cliff would expose the Group to a high level of credit and liquidity risk. Acuité, therefore, believes that the group’s performance will be susceptible to volumes in the bond markets, adverse macro-economic events, and ability to maintain an optimal risk-return trade off in respect of its investment exposures. The Group’s ability to maintain an optimal buffer of unencumbered liquid investments at all times will be critical.
Assessment of Adequacy of Credit Enhancement under various scenarios including stress scenarios (applicable for ratings factoring specified support considerations with or without the “CE” suffix)
­Strength of underlying structure
For Rs 475 Crore NCDs rated ‘ACUITE AA+’, Rs 175 Crore NCD's rated ' Acuite AA+' converted from provisional to final rating and Rs 325 crore NCDs with 'Provisional ACUITE AA+’  & reaffirmed 
The rating factors in the presence of a DSRA in the form of 20 percent of the outstanding principal amount. DSRA needs to be maintained in the form of cash, bank fixed deposit, ‘AAA’ rated debt securities, sovereign debt securities or listed InvIT units issued by any InvIT (having a credit rating of AAA for its Senior Debt) in any combination, for the minimum duration covering the tenor of the NCDs along with the T structure. The differential in the ratings of regular NCDs & bank facilities vis. a vis. the rating on these NCDs is on account of these structures. The notch-up is based on DSRA and T-n mechanism and the structure.

Given that the DSRA if in any form other than cash or bank FD, the same shall be liquidated atleast 15 days prior to the Date of Redemption and deployed in bank FDs having maturity atleast 3 days prior to the date of such redemption, provides the sufficient liquidity cushion. Further with the company’s investments in NCD’s around Rs 2306.84 Crore out of which over 70% is in AA and above category provides additional comfort for managing debt servicing even in stress case scenarios.
 
ESG Factors Relevant for Rating
­Trust Group has a diversified revenue stream with a majority portion accruing from the financial services sector. Adoption and upkeep of strong business ethics is a sensitive material issue for the financial services business linked to capital markets to avoid fraud, insider trading and other anti-competitive behavior. Other important governance issues relevant for the industry include management and board compensation, board independence as well as diversity, shareholder rights and role of audit committee. As regards the social factors, product or service quality has high materiality so as to minimise misinformation about the products to the customers and reduce reputational risks. For the industry, retention, and development of skilled manpower along with equal opportunity for employees is crucial. While data security is highly relevant due to company’s access to confidential client information, social initiatives such as enhancing financial literacy and improving financial inclusion are fairly important for the financial services sector. The material of environmental factors is low for this industry. Trust Group board comprises a total of seven directors out of which two are women directors. The Group maintains adequate disclosures with respect to the various board level committees, mainly Audit Committee, Nomination and Remuneration Committee along with Stakeholder Relationship Committee. The Group also maintains adequate level of transparency with regards to business ethics issues which can be inferred from its policies relating to code of conduct, whistleblower protection and related party transactions. In terms of its social impact, the Group is promoting healthcare by providing support for treatment of cancer patients.
