  • ABT Industries Limited
    January 19, 2017 ABT Industries Limited Instruments* Amount Rated (Rs. crore) Rating Action Term Loans 24.00 [ICRA]BB+(stable) / reaffirmed Long-term Fund based 48.00 [ICRA]BB+(stable) / reaffirmed Long term Non-fund Based 0.65 [ICRA]BB+(stable) / reaffirmed Long term Unallocated 8.52 [ICRA]BB+(stable) / reaffirmed Short-term non-fund based 0.75 [ICRA]A4+ / reaffirmed *Instrument details are provided in Annexure-1 Rating action ICRA has reaffirmed the long-term rating of [ICRA]BB+ (pronounced ICRA double B plus) on the Rs.24.00 crore term loan facility, Rs.48.00 crore long-term fund based facilities, Rs.0.65 crore long-term non-fund based facilities and 8.52 crore Long term Unallocated facilities of ABT Industries Limited (“AIL”/ the company). The outlook on the long term rating is stable. ICRA has also reaffirmed the short-term rating of [ICRA]A4+ (pronounced ICRA A four plus) on the Rs.0.75 crore short-term non-fund based facilities of AIL. Rationale The rating reaffirmation considers AIL’s strong market position in the commercial vehicles (CVs) dealership business in Madurai, the company being an authorized dealer of Tata Motors Limited (TML), and the stable market share in dairy segment in the region it operates. While the CV dealership division continues to report losses due to the inherently thin gross margins amidst heightened competition and pricing pressures, the same remains buffered by dairy segment. In March 2015, AIL pruned its non-profitable CV dealership division in Calicut which resulted in a 10% reduction in overall revenues.
