Detailed Rationale

CRISIL Ratings has reaffirmed its ratings on the bank facilities of RR Kabel Limited (RR Kabel) and subsequently withdrawn the ratings at the company's request and on receipt of a no-objection certificate from the bankers. This in line with the policy of CRISIL Ratings on withdrawal of bank loan ratings.

Analytical Approach

CRISIL Ratings has treated preference share capital of Rs 400 crore as equity as the shares are fully convertible and do not carry any preference dividend. CRISIL Ratings has also combined the business and financial risk profiles of RR Kabel and Ram Ratna Electricals Ltd, which was amalgamated into RR Kabel with effect from fiscal 2020.

 

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

For the six months ended September 30, 2020, operating income and profit after tax (PAT) were Rs 1,095 crore and Rs 49 crore, respectively.
