Deccan Cements: Credit Rating Review Withdrawn Due to Dropped NCD Issue
Deccan Cements Limited has withdrawn its proposed NCD issuance of up to ₹50 Crores. The company informed Infomerics Valuation and Rating Limited of this decision on March 31, 2026. Infomerics has assigned a BB+/Negative rating with an 'ISSUER NOT COOPERATING*' outlook.
The impact is considered low as the company had already decided not to proceed with the NCD issuance, making the credit rating review a consequence of a withdrawn plan rather than a reflection of current financial distress or a new financing event.
The announcement is a factual update on a credit rating review that was withdrawn by the company. While the rating action itself is negative, the company's decision to withdraw the NCD issuance due to internal financial management is a neutral development.
Deccan Cements Limited (DCL) has provided an update regarding the credit rating review of its proposed Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs). The company had initially planned to issue NCDs up to ₹50 Crores, for which a partial mandate was given to Infomerics Valuation and Rating Limited for rating an issue up to ₹25 Crores. However, DCL decided not to proceed with the NCD issuance as the company's expansion project was completed within budget, leading to a reduction in capital cost and term loan.
Consequently, DCL communicated its decision to withdraw the rating exercise to Infomerics via email on March 31, 2026. Despite this, Infomerics reportedly insisted on reviewing the rating for the dropped NCD proposal. Consequently, Infomerics has assigned a rating of IVR BB+/Negative with an 'ISSUER NOT COOPERATING*' outlook, with the review date as August 20, 2026. Previously, on June 9, 2026, the rating was BBB-/Negative with the same 'ISSUER NOT COOPERATING*' outlook.
The company clarifies that the rating exercise was unnecessary as the NCD proposal was dropped. The review was conducted by Infomerics without the company's full cooperation, leading to the current rating status.
