India Ratings Assigns TruAlt Bioenergy's Bank Facilities 'IND A-/Stable'
India Ratings has assigned TruAlt Bioenergy Limited 'IND A-/Stable/IND A2+' rating to its ₹17,660 million bank facilities. The company is India's largest cane-based distillery with expansion plans in CBG. 9MFY26 revenue grew 13% to ₹11.2 billion, EBITDA rose 10% to ₹1.9 billion. Credit metrics are expected to improve in FY27.
A credit rating is a significant factor for a company's access to finance and its cost of borrowing. This rating can positively influence investor and lender confidence, impacting the company's financial flexibility.
The assigned credit rating of 'IND A-/Stable/IND A2+' is generally positive, indicating a stable outlook for the company's bank loan facilities.
TruAlt Bioenergy Limited (TBL) has been assigned a credit rating of 'IND A-/Stable/IND A2+' for its bank loan facilities by India Ratings & Research Private Limited (India rating). The rating was assigned on April 27, 2026, with an issue size of ₹17,660 million.
The rating considers TBL's strong market position as India's largest cane-based distillery with a capacity of 2,000 klpd, and its growth potential driven by a strong order book. The company plans to expand its compressed biogas (CBG) capacity through joint ventures with GAIL India Limited and Sumitomo Corporation. While TBL is not backward integrated into molasses and cane production, this risk is mitigated by arrangements with group companies.
The company's consolidated revenue grew 13% year-on-year to ₹11.2 billion, and EBITDA jumped 10% year-on-year to ₹1.9 billion in the first nine months of FY26. India Ratings expects credit metrics to improve materially in FY27, driven by increased EBITDA from the ethanol order book. The presence of an escrow mechanism and timely payments from oil manufacturing companies provide comfort for debt servicing.
However, the ratings are constrained by TBL's exposure to regulatory changes in the ethanol and CBG businesses. Limited visibility beyond the 20% blending target may restrict near-term ethanol sales growth, and absence of price hikes to offset rising raw material costs could affect EBITDA margins. The company's ability to scale volumes while maintaining EBITDA margins in the CBG segment is a key monitorable, given the large expansion plans.
