Icra revise long-term rating of R-Com debt
Credit rating agency Icra Ltd said on Wednesday that it has revised the long-term rating of some of Reliance Communications Ltd’s (R-Com) debt instruments downwards.
The rating on R-Com’s Rs5000 crore non-convertible debenture and Rs28,116 crore long-term fund and non-fund based limits to LAA from LAA+. The long term rating continues to remain under watch with negative implications, Icra said in its statement.
“The rating action takes into consideration the delay in proposed equity infusion and continuing regulatory uncertainty, which in Icra’s opinion may impact the company’s ability to deleverage its balance sheet," Icra said.
The agency added that R-Com’s ability to service short-term debt repayment obligations had eased considerably with the company availing a long-term facility of $1.93 billion from the China Development Bank.
