Credit rating agency, CARE has reaffirmed A2 (SO) rating to short-term bank facilities (Invoice Discounting Facilities) worth Rs 1,700 of Essar Oil.
The rating continues to remain on ‘credit watch’ pending review of certain developments concerning the deferred sales tax liability due to the Government of Gujarat (GoG) and the possible impact of the same on the credit profile of the company. CARE will take a view on the rating once the exact implications of the above on the credit risk profile of the company are clear.
The company has received the said rating on the back of its credit quality of the underlying receivables and the escrow account structure that has been implemented by company to service the liability towards HDFC Bank arising out of discounted invoices.
Essar Oil is a fully integrated oil & gas company of international scale with strong presence across the hydrocarbon value chain from exploration and production to refining and oil retail.
