The transaction is backed by consumer durable loan receivables origniated by Home Credit India Finance Pvt Ltd (HCIFPL; rated 'CRISIL BBB+/Stable'). The ratings are based on the credit support available to PTCs, credit quality of the underlying receivables and soundness of the transaction's legal structure. 
 
The transaction has a 'par' structure Total credit support available in the transaction at the time of securitisation was:

 

  • Internal credit support in the form of scheduled cash flow subordination, aggregating Rs 4.15 crore (7.4% of pool principal) and Rs 2.40 crore (4.3% of pool principal)  for Series A1 PTCs and Series A2 PTCs, respectively
  • External credit-cum-liquidity collateral of Rs 2.57 crore (4.58% of pool principal) in the form of fixed deposit provides support to Series A1 PTCs and Series A2 PTCs.

Series A1 PTCs are senior, and will have the first priority right on the trust property. These PTCs are entitled to monthly interest. Principal and interest payments for Series A2 PTCs are fully subordinated to payouts for Series A1 PTCs on each payout date. The transaction envisages ultimate payment structure for principal payouts for both Series A1 and Series A2 PTCs. On maturity of Series A1 PTCs, Series A2 PTCs are entitled to monthly interest. Catalayst Trusteeship Ltd (CTL) has been appointed to monitor the transaction on behalf of the PTC holders. HCIFPL will continue to service the pool contracts as the servicing agent. The trust is settled by CTL.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description
Supporting Factors
  • Credit support available in the structure
    • Credit collateral of Rs 2.57 crore (4.58% of the pool principal) provides credit support to Series A1 and Series A2 PTCs. The PTCs also benefit from scheduled cashflow subordination aggregating Rs 4.15 crore for Series A1 PTCs and Rs 2.40 crore for Series A2 PTCs.
  • Moderate seasoning of contracts in the pool
    • The contracts in the pool have a weighted average seasoning of 3.8 months, and consequently, the pool is amortized by 60.7% as of the cut-off date.
 Constraining Factors
  • Risk profile of borrowers and low recoveries due to nature of underlying asset
    • The pool is backed by receivables extended to borrowers with limited or no credit history and consequently, the underlying borrowers have high credit risk. Performance of the pool will, hence, remain susceptible to risks inherent in the unsecured lending business (no recoveries expected due to the nature of underlying asset).
About the pool
The pool cash flow is securitised and comprises receivables from zero interest consumer durable loan receivables originated by HCIFPL. The pool has a weighted average net seasoning of 3.8 months, with Maharashtra, Gujarat and Delhi accounting for 44.5% of the pool principal outstanding. Average ticket size of the pool is Rs 11.3 thousand. All contracts in the pool were current as on the cut-off date (May 31, 2018). CRISIL has adequately factored all these aspects in its rating analysis.
 

Rating Assumptions
To assess the base case shortfalls for the transaction, CRISIL has analysed static pool information (with data on 30+ and 90+ delinquencies) on zero interest consumer durable loan portfolio provided by HCIFPL for originations in the period FY2016 to May 2018 (with performance data till May 2018). As of April 2018, 90+ dpd for zero interest consumer durable portfolio is 5.7%

CRISIL has also factored in pool specific characteristics and estimated the base case peak shortfalls in the pool in the range of 4.0 to 6.0% of pool cash flows.
  • Based on its assessment of HCIFPL's short-term credit risk profile, CRISIL has factored in the risk arising out of commingling of cash flows.
  • CRISIL has adequately factored in the risks arising on account of counterparties (refer to counterparty details below)
CRISIL has run sensitivities based on various shortfall curves (front-ended, back-ended and normal) and has adequately factored the same in its analysis.
