SEPC Limited's Credit Rating Downgraded to 'D' by CRISIL and Infomerics
SEPC Limited's credit ratings have been downgraded by CRISIL Ratings and Infomerics. Long-term and short-term bank facilities are now rated 'D' by both agencies, indicating a default or near-default situation. This represents a significant downgrade from previous ratings.
A credit rating of 'D' typically indicates default or is expected to default. This has a high impact on the company's ability to access further credit, its borrowing costs, and overall financial stability.
The credit rating downgrade to 'D' by two agencies signifies a severe negative development for the company's financial health and its ability to service its debt obligations.
SEPC Limited has been informed of a credit rating downgrade by two major rating agencies, CRISIL Ratings Limited and Infomerics Valuation and Rating Ltd.
CRISIL has downgraded SEPC's Long Term Bank Facilities rating to 'CRISIL D' from 'CRISIL BB+/Negative' and its Short Term Bank Facilities rating to 'CRISIL D' from 'CRISIL A4+'.
Similarly, Infomerics has downgraded SEPC's Long Term Bank Facilities rating to 'IVR D' from 'IVR BB+ / Negative' and its Short Term Bank Facilities rating to 'IVR D' from 'IVR 4+'.
The company has requested that these rating changes be taken on record.
