The rating takes comfort from promoters backed by Kerala based Malabar Group, revenue generation started from April 2018 due to COD of Phase I of the project achieved in March 2018 and Occupancy by area of 86% along with long term lease agreement. The rating strengths are partially offset by highly competitive nature of business, vacancy risk and project execution risk associated with Phase II of project which is yet to be constructed. Going forward, renting out remaining area followed by achieving projected turnover, improving footfalls for sustaining the sales of tenants and generating sufficient cash flow for the timely repayment of debt obligation will be key ratings sensitivities. 1 8 Jan 2019 Description of Key Rating Drivers ● Credit Strengths: Promoters backed by Kerala based Malabar Group: The company is promoted by Mr. Ahammed M P, the Chairman and Managing Director of Malabar Gold Private Limited and a promoter of Malabar group.
