Rating Outlook: Stable BWR believes, The Bombay Dyeing and Manufacturing Company Limited’s business risk profile will be maintained over the medium term. The ‘Stable’ outlook indicates a low likelihood of rating change over the medium term.

Marketing risk for the project which if of relatively high-ticket value. Challenging market conditions and relatively high ticket sizes for the project exposes BDMC to some market risk with respect to the balance unsold inventory. However, post receipt of OC the sales are expected to improve on account of attracting zero GST.
