Mukka Proteins' bank facilities totaling ₹495 crore have been reaffirmed at CARE BBB-; Stable / CARE A3.

Credit rating changes are important for a company's borrowing costs and investor confidence. A stable outlook and reaffirmation of ratings, especially after a negative outlook, suggest improved financial health and operational performance, which can positively influence the company's financial strategy and access to capital.
The credit rating has been reaffirmed with a stable outlook, and the outlook has been revised from negative to stable, indicating a positive development for the company's financial standing.
Mukka Proteins Limited (MPL) has had its credit rating reaffirmed by CARE Ratings Limited, with the outlook revised from Negative to Stable. The long-term/short-term bank facilities totaling ₹480 crore have been rated CARE BBB-; Stable / CARE A3, and the long-term bank facilities of ₹15 crore have been rated CARE BBB-; Stable.
The rating action reflects an improvement in MPL's operating performance in Q1 FY27, driven by rising global fish meal prices and steady demand. CARE Ratings expects sustained performance, leading to reduced inventory and improved liquidity. The company's revenue grew by approximately 187% year-over-year to ₹490 crore in Q1 FY27, with a PBILDT margin above 9%.
MPL raised approximately ₹47 crore in September 2026 through a preferential issue of convertible equity share warrants, which is expected to enhance its liquidity and improve leverage. The company is also establishing a fish meal production facility in Oman, slated to commence operations in H2FY27.
Key strengths supporting the ratings include MPL's established track record and market position in the fish meal industry, geographically diversified production facilities, and a healthy proportion of exports in its revenue mix. However, the ratings remain constrained by the working capital-intensive nature of its operations, exposure to price volatility in raw materials and fish meal, and forex fluctuation risks.
