  • Chennai Petroleum Corporation Limited: Rating Reaffirmed
    January 06, 2020 Revised Chennai Petroleum Corporation Limited: Rating reaffirmed Summary of rating action Previous Rated Amount Current Rated Amount Instrument* Rating Action (Rs. crore) (Rs. crore) Commercial Paper 6000.0 6000.0 [ICRA]A1+; reaffirmed *Instrument details are provided in Annexure-1 Rationale ICRA has taken a consolidated view of CPCL along with its parent Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) (rated [ICRA]A1+), which has 51.9% stake in CPCL, because of the strong business linkages, particularly with respect to imported crude oil sourcing and product off-take. ICRA is of the opinion that IOC would support CPCL to meet its financial obligations, should the need arise. CPCL remains strategically important to IOC as the latter meets its product requirements for the South Indian market from the former. The rating reflects CPCL’s strategic position within the IOC group, which result in low demand risk; its long standing track record in refining business; and the high financial flexibility with lenders by virtue of being a subsidiary of IOCL. The IOCL group has a diversified refinery base at 11 locations on a consolidated basis and its integration into marketing, pipelines and petrochemicals segments reduces the impact of cyclicality associated with the refining segment (which contributed ~22% of EBIDTA in FY2019). The rating reflects the consolidated entity’s dominant and strategically important position in the Indian energy sector, and its role in fulfilling the socio-economic objectives of the GoI. The rating also reflects IOC’s high financial flexibility arising from its large sovereign ownership (53.88% stakes owned by the GoI), the significant portfolio of liquid investments (~ Rs.
