Rating Rationale
Acuite has assigned long term rating of 'ACUITE BBB+' (read as ACUITE triple B plus) on the Rs. 54.50 Cr. bank facilities and short-term rating of 'ACUITE A2' (read as ACUITE A two) on the Rs. 245.50 Cr. bank facilities of T and T projects limited. The outlook is 'Stable'.
Rationale for rating
The rating takes into account benefits derived from the promoters, established Government clientele base, increase in revenues to Rs. 363.72 Cr. in FY 26(Prov) as compared to Rs. 246.85 Cr. in FY 25 along with stable operating profitability. The unexecuted orderbook position amounts to Rs. 542 Cr. as on May 2026 providing revenue visibility in the near term however, the Company’s ability to bag new orders would remain a key monitorable. The financial risk profile of the company is healthy marked by improving networth, low gearing and healthy debt protection metrics. The company has an adequate liquidity position with sufficient net cash accruals, moderate bank limit utilization and free deposits with bank. However, these strengths are partly offset by moderately-intensive working capital cycle and Inherent risks in tender-based construction businesses
