Tara Air Private Limited: Ratings Placed on Watch with Negative Implications April 6, 2020
Tara Air Private Limited: Ratings placed on watch with negative implications April 6, 2020 Summary of rated instruments Instrument* Rated Amount (Million) Rating Action Facilities Rated in NPR Million Long-term loans; fund based 137.08 [ICRANP] LB@ 1 ; placed on watch with negative implications Short-term loans; fund based 662.31 [ICRANP] A4@; placed on watch with negative Short-term loans; non-fund based 169.07 implications Total (NPR Million) 968.46 Facilities Rated in USD Million Long-term loans; fund based 5.75 [ICRANP] LB@; placed on watch with negative implications Short-term loans; fund based 0.41 [ICRANP] A4@; placed on watch with negative implications Total (USD Million) 6.16 * Instrument details are provided in Annexure-1 Rating action ICRA Nepal has placed the ratings assigned to the bank loan limits of Tara Air Private Limited (Tara or the company) on watch with negative implications. These ratings include the rating of [ICRANP] LB@ (pronounced ICRA NP L B) assigned to the company’s long-term loans and the rating of [ICRANP] A4@ (pronounced ICRA NP A four) assigned to the company’s short-term loans (including non-fund based limits). Rationale The ratings for Tara have been placed on watch with negative implications, given the expected impact of Covid-19 on the Nepalese tourism sector and hence the domestic aviation sector. The initially assigned ratings drew comfort from the Government initiatives in celebrating 2020 as a Visit Nepal Year which has been cancelled recently, amid the global coronavirus outbreak. The outbreak resulted in a marginal decline in tourist arrivals in January-February 2020, with a sharp decline expected in the months to follow.

Managing director of Sita Air, Rajendra Singh, says, “We in Nepal are in our fourth week of lockdown now with the [looming] possibility of an extension, but STOL operators like us are still busy in the mountains with relief e˛orts.” “The Ministry of Health has tasked us with Ùying medics to rural and mountain regions. These regions have limited healthcare facilities and are short of the manpower needed for widespread [COVID-19] testing. The immediate need is testing, not just of likely infections, but also for random sampling to help the health authorities better understand the geographic spread of the virus,” he says.
