Red Herring Prospectus
Analysis & Guidance:
1) Crisil rating has been ‘CRISIL A+/Stable’
2) Certain parameters require attention. The interest coverage ratio is just 1.18%, which we believe is somewhat risky. Gross Stage 3 Assets ratio is 5.7% and Net Stage 3 Assets ratio is 2.97, which are also on higher side. The company has Tier-1 Capital Adequacy ratio of just 13.40%, which we consider somewhat low. The absolute amounts of net profits, compared to total assets, compared to total income etc. are very small.
3) Considering above aspects, the rate of interest is not quite attractive.
May be avoided.
