A credit rating downgrade can affect borrowing costs and investor confidence, potentially impacting the company's ability to raise funds for its projects.
The credit rating has been downgraded, indicating a negative outlook on the company's financial health and risk profile.
Vikran Engineering Limited (VEL) announced an update to its credit rating by Infomerics Valuation and Rating Limited, as per a report dated 19th June 2026. The company's long-term fund-based facilities, previously rated IVR A-/Stable, have been revised to IVR BBB+/Stable. Similarly, non-fund-based facilities, previously rated IVR A-/Stable/IVR A2+, are now revised to IVR BBB+/Stable/A2. The total amount for fund-based facilities is ₹184.73 crore, and for non-fund-based facilities, it is ₹395.00 crore.
The downgrade is attributed to significant equity funding requirements for solar projects, concentration risk in the order book with a substantial portion related to solar projects, and the critical need for timely financial closure, equity infusion, and project execution. The rating rationale also considers the company's high working capital intensity, tender-based business model, and the competitive industry environment.
However, the rating continues to be supported by VEL's improved scale of operations, a healthy order book providing revenue visibility, a comfortable capital structure, and debt protection metrics. The extensive experience of its promoters and its established clientele base are also key supporting factors. The detailed rating rationale is available on Infomerics' website.
