Rating Outlook: BWR believes the Bhaskar Industries Private Limited business risk profile will be maintained over the medium term. The outlook indicates a low likelihood of rating change over the medium term. The given rating essentially captures performance of DBL, since BIPL currently does not have strong operational cash flows and the NCD structure involves pledge of DBL equity shares provided as security. Security cover of 1.50 times provides cushion to investors. T- 30 days and T-3 days clause requiring the Company to deposit principal and interest amount respectively payable under the facility in the Designated Bank Account charged addresses the liquidity aspects to an extent should there is a need to invoke the security. Performance of DBL and other promoter companies, adherence to the structure are the key sensitivities to the Rating. The rating outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if the if the credit quality of DBL declines.
