*Issuer did not cooperate; based on best-available information
 
'Please note that the entity whose ratings are being published via this press release did not make the payment towards surveillance fees due and is therefore classified as 'non cooperative'.

 

Non cooperation by Issuer

In accordance with the terms of the rating agreement with Parsvnath Developers Limited (PDL), CRISIL Ratings has sent repeated reminders for payment of fees towards the surveillance exercise through letters and emails dated Apr 24, 2024, May 24, 2024 among others, apart from telephonic communication. However, the issuer has remained non cooperative.
 
'The investors, lenders and all other market participants should exercise due caution while using the rating assigned/ reviewed with the suffix 'ISSUER NOT COOPERATING'.

 

On account of lack of management cooperation towards non-payment of fees, CRISIL Ratings has reaffirmed the rating on bank facilities of PDL at ‘CRISIL D Issuer Not Cooperating'.

Detailed Rationale

The rating on cash credit facility of Rs 15.5 crore, has been withdrawn at the company’s request as these limits were reduced from existing facilities of PDL. The rating action is in line with CRISIL Ratings' policy on withdrawal of its ratings on bank facilities.

 

The reaffirmation reflects delay in servicing of debt obligations of Cash Credit account. The cash credit account though remains overdrawn for less than 30 days. Further, the balance sheet for fiscal 2023 also reflects default on debt facilities. Management has articulated that it has entered into agreements and requesting with lenders for repayment of defaulted debt in a time bound manner. Some of these agreements are under process. However, CRISIL Ratings has not been able to verify the same through independent sources. The reaffirmation at D, thus, reflects delay in servicing of debt obligations of Cash Credit account and inability to confirm timely debt servicing on entire debt.

 

PDL is also exposed to cyclicality inherent in the real estate sector. However, it benefits from the extensive experience of its promoters in the real estate industry.

Analytical Approach

For arriving at the rating, CRISIL Ratings has combined the business and financial risk profiles of PDL and its subsidiaries and associates. This is because all these entities, collectively referred to as PDL, are managed by the same promoters and have financial linkages.

 

Please refer Annexure - List of Entities Consolidated, which captures the list of entities considered and their analytical treatment of consolidation.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description

Weaknesses:

  • Stretched liquidity reflected by ongoing overdues in the group: There has been sustained overdues in debt servicing in group on account of stretched liquidity. The group continues to show interest accrued and due of Rs 330 crores as on March 31, 2023. For the rated amount of cash credit facility, the overdues have been upto 30 days in recent months, primarily due to levy of monthly interest. Regularization of debt servicing will remain a key rating sensitivity factor.

 

  • Susceptibility to cyclical demand inherent in the real estate sector: The real estate sector in India is cyclical and affected by volatile prices, opaque transactions and a highly fragmented market structure. Hence, business risk profile will remain susceptible to risks arising from any industry slowdown 

 

Strength:

  • Promoters’ extensive experience: Healthy track record of over two decades in the real estate sector has enabled the promoters to develop a well-diversified portfolio, which includes residential apartments and townships, commercial and retail space, special economic zones (SEZs), information technology (IT) parks, and hotels. It is also engaged in the construction contracting business.

Liquidity: Poor

Liquidity is Poor due to the slowdown in sales and flow of customer advances from projects. Company has been reducing its existing limits in the bank.

Rating Sensitivity factors

Upward Factors:

  • Track Record of timely debt servicing for atleast 90 days
  • Sustainable improvement in financial risk profile

About the Group
