WSP HOLDINGS: Significant Sales Decline Cues Going Concern Doubt
----------------------------------------------------------------
WSP Holdings Limited filed on July 15, 2010, its annual report on
Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu CPA Ltd., in Beijing, expressed
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.  The independent auditors noted that the Company
has experienced a significant decline in sales in the United
States due to the anti-dumping and countervailing duty on seamless
pipes made in China and is required to repay a significant amount
of short-term borrowings {totaling $506.4 million].

"In 2009, products exported to the United States accounted for
9.0% of the Company's net revenues, compared to 22.7% and 34.3% of
the Company's net revenues, in 2007 and 2008, respectively."

"For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company had negative
operating cash flow of US$116.5 million compared to a positive
cash flow of US$67.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Further, the Company did not meet certain financial covenants
contained in its loan facilities."

The Company reported net income of US$1.6 million on US$577.0
million of revenue for 2009, compared with net income of US$100.7
million on US$912.1 million of revenue for 2008.

The Company's balance sheet at December 31, 2009, showed
US$1.394 billion in assets, US$960.1 million of liabilities, and
US$434.3 million of stockholders' equity.

annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2009.

Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu CPA Ltd., in Beijing, expressed
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern.  The independent auditors noted that the Company

liabilities exceeded its current assets by US$50.9 million, its
total liabilities exceeded its total assets by US$26.2 million,
and its net shareholders' deficiency [attributable to Xinhua
Sports shareholders] was US$61.4 million.

The Company reported a net loss of US$313.6 million on US$99.2
million     of revenue for 2009, compared with a net loss of
US$274.2 million on US$121.5 million of revenue for 2008.

The Company's balance sheet at December 31, 2009, showed
US$242.6 million in assets, US$268.7 million of liabilities, and
US$33.8 million of Series B redeemable convertible preferred

AK LUMBERS: CRISIL Assigns 'BB-' Ratings to Various Bank Debts
--------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'BB-/Stable/P4+' ratings to the bank
facilities of AK Lumbers Ltd.  The ratings reflect the AKL group's
weak financial risk profile, resulting from large working capital
requirements, and exposure to risks related to adverse changes in
regulations on timber imports.  These rating weaknesses are
partially offset by the benefits that the AKL group derives from
its promoters' experience in the sawmill business.

   Facilities                           Ratings
   ----------                           -------
   INR50.0 Million Cash Credit Limit    BB-/Stable (Assigned)
   INR2.5 Million Term Loan             BB-/Stable (Assigned)
   INR0.5 Million Long-Term Bank Loan   BB-/Stable (Assigned)
                             facility
   INR10.0 Million Letter of Credit     BB-/Stable (Assigned)
   INR35.0 Million Letter of Credit     P4+ (Assigned)
   INR2.0 Million Bank Guarantee        P4+ (Assigned)

CRISIL has combined the financial risk profiles of AK Lumbers,
Punjab Metal Works Pvt Ltd, and Jindal Wood Products (P) Ltd,
collectively referred to as the AKL group. This is because the
three entities are in the same line of operations and are managed
and promoted by the same family. Moreover, AK Lumbers has given
corporate guarantees for the other group companies.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that the AKL group's financial risk profile will
remain constrained over the medium term, marked by high gearing
and weak debt protection measures.  The outlook may be revised to
'Positive' in case of fresh equity infusion, resulting in
improvement in gearing and net worth, or if it improves its
working capital management.  Conversely, the outlook may be
revised to 'Negative' in case of any large, debt-funded capital
expenditure or decline in profitability.

Set up in 1987 as a proprietary firm, AK Lumbers (formerly, A K
Traders) was incorporated as a public limited company in 2000. The
company is engaged in trading and processing of timber logs,
mainly from teak wood and hard wood.  The company's plant situated
in New Delhi has processing capacity of 30 cubic meters per day
(cmpd) and its new plant in Kandla (Gujarat) has capacity of 60
cmpd.

The AKL group includes two other entities: Jindal Wood and Punjab
Metal. Incorporated in 1990, Jindal Wood has its plant in Kandla,
which caters mainly to the exports market. Punjab Metal was taken
over as a sick unit by the group in 2005 and is now engaged in the
manufacture of plywood.

The AKL group reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR9 million on
net sales of INR503 million for 2008-09 (refers to financial year,
April 1 to March 31), against a PAT of INR7 million on net sales
of INR459 million for 2007-08.


ASHOK TRANSFORMERS: CRISIL Cuts Rating on Cash Credit to 'BB-'
--------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has downgraded its rating on the long-term bank facilities
of Ashok Transformers Pvt Ltd to 'BB-/Stable' from 'BB+/Stable'
and has reaffirmed its rating on the short-term bank facilities at
'P4'.

   Facilities                               Ratings
   ----------                               -------
   INR100.0 Million Cash Credit Limit       BB-/Stable (Downgraded
                                                from 'BB+/Stable')

   INR10.0 Million Standby Line of Credit   BB-/Stable (Downgraded
                                                from 'BB+/Stable')
   INR140.0 Million Bank Guarantee          P4 (Reaffirmed)
   INR10.0 Million Letter of Credit         P4 (Reaffirmed)

The downgrade reflects deterioration of ATPL's financial and
business risk profiles following the continued decline in sales in
2009-10 (refers to financial year, April 1 to March 31) and
stretch in working capital cycle because of competitive pressures.
The company's sales have been declining for the past two years by
around 17 per cent each year; however, the company has been able
to maintain its operating margin at 14 per cent.  The working
capital cycle is stretched: it had high debtor level of around 156
days and considerable inventory build-up as on March 31, 2010.

The ratings reflect ATPL's large working capital requirements,
customer concentration in revenue profile, and exposure to risks
related to intense market competition, small scale of operations,
and tender-based business.  These weaknesses are partially offset
by ATPL's strong track record in, and healthy growth prospects
for, the electrical transformer segment.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that ATPL will maintain its business risk profile
over the medium term, supported by its stable, albeit modest,
order book and long track record in the electrical transformers
industry.  The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if the company
bags more-than-expected orders and maintains profitability.
Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if the
company significantly delays in recovering its dues, or if its
revenues decline further.

Set up as a partnership firm in 1970, ATPL was reconstituted as a
private limited company in 1974. It manufactures electrical
transformers at its plant in Surat (Gujarat).

ATPL reported (provisional) a profit after tax (PAT) of INR7.8
million on net sales of INR192.4 million for 2009-10 (refers to
financial year, April 1 to March 31), against a PAT of INR10.3
million on net sales of INR224.4 million for 2008-09.


DECCAN JEWELLERS: CRISIL Reaffirms 'BB-' Rating on INR200MM Credit
------------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL's ratings on Deccan Jewellers Pvt Ltd bank loan facility
continue to reflect the company's below-average financial risk
profile, and its exposure to risks relating to intense competition
in the fragmented jewellery industry, and to volatility in the
prices of gold.  These weaknesses are partially offset by the
benefits that Deccan Jewellers derives from its promoters'
experience, and its recognised brand name in tier 2 cities in
Andhra Pradesh (AP).

   Facilities                          Ratings
   ----------                          -------
   INR200.00 Million Cash Credit       BB-/Stable (Reaffirmed)

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that Deccan Jewellers will maintain a stable
business risk profile, supported by its established brand in AP.
The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if the company's business
risk profile improves substantially, owing to increase in revenue
diversity and scale of operations, and if its financial risk
profile improves on the back of higher-than-expected cash accruals
and a healthy capital structure.  Conversely, the outlook may be
revised to 'Negative' if Deccan Jewellers' operating margins
decline substantially, or if it undertakes large debt-funded
capital expenditure.

                       About Deccan Jewellers

Deccan Jewellers, which began operations in 2007, has retail
outlets at Vijayawada, Kakinada, Rajahmundry, and Warangal in AP.
Deccan Jewellers is owned by the families of Mr. Azizul Rahaman
Khan and Mr. Fazulul Rahaman Khan.  The promoters have been in the
jewellery business for more than three decades; the promoters have
also been in the tobacco business for more than a decade.

Deccan Jewellers posted a provisional profit after tax (PAT) of
INR16.8 million on net sales of INR525 million in 2009-10 (refers
to financial year, April 1 to March 31), as against a PAT of
INR11.5 million on net sales of INR303.5 million for 2008-09.


EAST WEST: CRISIL Reaffirms 'BB+' Ratings on Bank Facilities
------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'P4+' rating to the proposed short-term
bank facility of East West Freight Carriers Pvt Ltd, while
reaffirming its ratings on the company's other bank facilities at
'BB+/Stable/P4+'.

   Facilities                              Ratings
   ----------                              -------
   INR71.0 Million Cash Credit (Enhanced   BB+/Stable
                    from INR46.5 Million)

   INR3.5 Million Standby Line of Credit   BB+/Stable (Reaffirmed)

   INR74.5 Million Proposed Short-Term     P4+ (Assigned)
                    Bank Loan Facility

   INR1.0 Million Bank Guarantee (Reduced  P4+ (Reaffirmed)
                     from INR100 Million)

The ratings continue to reflect East West's exposure to risks
related to operating in the highly competitive and fragmented
logistics industry, and the company's heavy reliance on export
cargo.  These weaknesses are partially offset by East West's
established position in the freight forwarding business, and its
above-average financial risk profile marked by healthy debt
protection measures and low gearing.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that East West will maintain its market position
and credit risk profile over the medium term, supported by its
longstanding relationships with clients and improving cash
accruals.  The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if there is a
significant improvement in the company's capital structure,
primarily driven by equity infusion or significant increase in
scale of operations coupled with improvement in profitability.
Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if there is a
further stretch in East West's liquidity, or if its profitability
is lower than expectations.

                         About East West

East West was started as a proprietorship concern in 1976 by Mr.
Mohammed Shafi, and was reconstituted as a private limited company
in 1979.  The Mumbai-based company provides freight forwarding and
customs clearing services.  East West has 14 branches across the
country. It is an approved International Air Transport Association
agent for issue of airway bills, and a registered Custom House
Agent. It also has a Multi Modal Transport Operator licence from
the Directorate-General of Shipping.

For 2008-09 (refers to financial year, April 1 to March 31), East
West reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR11.9 million on net
sales of INR1.20 billion, as against a PAT of INR13.3 million on
net sales of INR1.06 billion for the previous year.


J. D. INDUSTRIES: CRISIL Places 'B+' Rating on INR41.2MM Term Loan
------------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'B+/Stable/P4' ratings to J. D. Industries
(India) Ltd's bank facilities.

   Facilities                         Ratings
   ----------                         -------
   INR130.0 Million Cash Credit       B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR41.2 Million Term Loan          B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR20.0 Million Stand by Line      B+/Stable (Assigned)
                       of Credit
   INR20.0 Million Letter of Credit/  P4 (Assigned)
                   Bank Guarantee

The ratings reflect JDIL's weak financial risk profile, marked by
high gearing and high bank limit ulitiZation, and exposure to
risks related to its small scale of operations in the electric
resistance welded (ERW) pipes industry.  These rating weaknesses
are partially offset by the healthy growth in JDIL's operating
income, driven by expected increase in the proportion of trading
business.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that JDIL will continue to benefit from its
promoters' experience in ERW pipes industry, over the medium term.
The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if JDIL's operating
income and cash accruals grow significantly driven by increased
capacity utilisation or if fresh equity infusion from promoters
leads to improved capital structure.  Conversely, the outlook may
be revised to 'Negative' if the company's profitability declines
or if the company undertakes a larger-than-expected debt-funded
capital expenditure programme, leading to deterioration in its
debt protection measures.

JDIL was set up by Mr. Janardan Gupta in 1994. Currently, the
company is managed by Mr. Gupta along with his sons, Mr. Sainish
Gupta and Mr. Manish Gupta. The company manufactures ERW mild
steel tubes and pipes with diameters ranging from 15 millimetre
(mm) to 200 mm. The company has manufacturing facilities at three
locations, three production lines in Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh),
two lines in Bhiwadi (Rajasthan), and one line in Siliguri (West
Bengal). Currently, JDIL has capacity to manufacture 68,400 tonnes
of pipes per annum.

JDIL reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR11.4 million on net
sales of INR918.4 million for 2008-09 (refers to financial year,
April 1 to March 31) against a PAT of INR8.4 million on net sales
of INR562 million for 2007-08.


MAA DURGA: CRISIL Assigns 'B' Rating to INR21.7 Million Term Loan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'B/Stable/P4' ratings to the bank
facilities of Maa Durga Rice Processing and Exports Pvt Ltd.

   Facilities                         Ratings
   ----------                         -------
   INR101 Million Cash Credit         B/Stable (Assigned)
   INR21.7 Million Term Loan          B/Stable (Assigned)
   INR10 Million Letter of Credit &   P4 (Assigned)
                     Bank Guarantee

The ratings reflect Maa Durga's weak financial risk profile marked
by a high gearing, large working capital requirements, small net
worth, and weak debt protection metrics, and susceptibility to
volatility in raw material prices, vagaries of monsoons, and
adverse regulatory changes.  These rating weaknesses are partially
offset by the assured rice offtake by Food Corporation of India
(FCI) and stable demand for rice.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that Maa Durga will continue to benefit over the
medium term from the healthy prospects in the rice processing
industry. Maa Durga's financial position will, however, remain
strained over the medium term, and its debt protection measures,
weak, because of debt contracted to meet its large working capital
requirements.  The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' in case of
significant infusion of equity or a substantial increase in cash
accruals, resulting in an increased net worth and a stronger
financial risk profile for Maa Durga. Conversely, the outlook may
be revised to 'Negative' if decline in profitability or large,
debt-funded capital expenditure leads to deterioration in Maa
Durga's financial risk profile.

                          About Maa Durga

Maa Durga, formed in 2003 by Mr. Prasanta Chandra Rath, has been
into rice processing since inception. The company processes both
raw and parboiled rice, with a capacity of 240 tonnes per day, at
its facilities in Cuttack (Orissa). It procures rice mainly from
traders in Orissa, Chandigarh, and Delhi, with around 75 per cent
of the procurement being from Orissa. Its sales are generally to
traders in Orissa, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, and Bihar.

Maa Durga reported a provisional profit after tax (PAT) of INR2.76
million on net sales of INR218.98 million for 2009-10 (refers to
financial year, April 1 to March 31), against a PAT of INR1.49
million on net sales of INR196.38 million for 2008-09.


MEDICA PHARMACY: CRISIL Cuts Ratings on Various Debts to 'B-'
-------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has downgraded its rating on the bank facilities of Medica
Pharmacy Pvt Ltd, which is a part of the Medica group, to
'B-/Negative' from 'BB-/Stable'.

   Facilities                       Ratings
   ----------                       -------
   INR42.1 Million Cash Credit      B-/Negative (Downgraded from
                                                   'BB-/Stable')
   INR4.7 Million Proposed Cash     B-/Negative (Downgraded from
                         Credit                    'BB-/Stable')
   INR73.2 Million Term Loan        B-/Negative (Downgraded from
                                                   'BB-/Stable')

The downgrade reflects pressure on the Medica group's liquidity
profile; the group may not be able to extend financial support to
MPPL, if required, over the near to medium term.  The weak
liquidity stems from the initial losses that the group is
incurring upon commencement of its Kolkata hospital, and the
increase in the scope of the project, resulting in time and cost
overruns.  However, MPPL, on a standalone basis, has started
generating operating profits and has been meeting its debt
obligations on time; CRISIL believes that MPPL's cash accruals
over the near to medium term would be just sufficient to service
its debt obligations.

The rating also factors in the Medica group's weak financial risk
profile, small scale of operations of the pharmacy division, and
its exposure to operational risks because of the recent
commencement of the Kolkata Hospital. These weaknesses are
partially offset by the benefits that the group derives from its
promoters' experience in the healthcare industry.

For arriving at the rating, CRISIL has combined the business and
financial risk profiles of MPPL, Medica Hospitals Pvt Ltd, Medica
Synergie Pvt Ltd, and North Bengal Clinic Pvt Ltd, together
referred to as the Medica group.  This is because MHPL, MPPL, and
NBCPL are held by MSPL, and the four companies share a common
management, are in similar lines of business, and have integrated
operations.

Outlook: Negative

CRISIL believes that the Medica group's liquidity profile may
deteriorate over the medium term as the group's main project, the
Kolkata-based multi-speciality hospital, is yet to generate cash
accruals and needs financial support over the near to medium term
to meet debt obligations.  The rating could be downgraded in case
the group is not able to generate adequate accruals for servicing
its debt. Conversely, the outlook could be revised to 'Stable' in
case the group is able to raise additional funds to meet its
payment obligations to its creditors, and it starts generating
healthy operational cash flows.

                          About the Group

Set up in January 2007, MPPL handles the Medica group's pharmacy
retail business. The company currently has 28 outlets, all in
Kolkata, under the Medica Health Shoppe brand. MPPL is a 100-per-
cent subsidiary of MSPL.

The Medica group comprises four companies. Set up in March 2003,
MSPL is the flagship company of the group. I-VEN Medicare, a
special investment vehicle of the ICICI Venture in the healthcare
segment, owns a two-third stake in MSPL while the remaining is
owned by Dr. Alok Roy, along with his friends and relatives.
MPPL's main activities include consultancy and advisory services
for setting up hospital projects, which are divided into three
domains: public health, hospital planning and management, and
quality and accreditation. The company's boutique ear, nose, and
throat (ENT) hospital, which has around 15 beds, commenced
operations in October 2008. The hospital is managed by three
Indian doctors, who have had previous experience in the UK. In
November 2007, MSPL acquired a 67 per cent stake in the 31-year-
old NBCPL, based at Siliguri (West Bengal).

The Medica group reported a provisional consolidated net loss of
INR62.3 million on net sales of INR333.9 million for 2009-10
(refers to financial year, April 1 to March 31), as against a net
loss of INR165.0 million on net sales of INR294.1 million for
2008-09.


MEDICA HOSPITALS: CRISIL Downgrades Rating on INR460MM Loan to 'D'
------------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has downgraded its rating on the bank facilities of Medica
Hospitals Pvt Ltd, which is a part of the Medica group, to 'D'
from 'BB/Stable'.

   Facilities                       Ratings
   ----------                       -------
   INR460.00 Million Term Loan      D (Downgraded from
                                       'BB/Stable')

The downgrade reflects the delay by MHPL in repaying its term loan
instalment that was due on July 1, 2010; the delay was caused by
MHPL's weak liquidity owing to initial losses upon commencement of
the Kolkata hospital, and to the increase in the scope of the
project, resulting in time and cost overruns.

The Medica group has a weak financial risk profile, and is exposed
to operational risks because of the recent commencement of the
Kolkata Hospital. However, the company benefits from its
promoters' experience in the healthcare industry.

For arriving at the rating, CRISIL has combined the business and
financial risk profiles of MHPL, Medica Pharmacy Pvt Ltd, Medica

referred to as the Medica group.  This is because MHPL, MPPL, and
NBCPL are held by MSPL, and the four companies share a common
management, are in similar lines of business, and have integrated
operations.

Set up in January 2007, MHPL handles the Kolkata hospital project
of the Medica group. MHPL is a 100-per-cent subsidiary of MSPL.
MHPL recently, in January 2010, commenced operations at its multi-
speciality 209-bed hospital in Kolkata. Besides this hospital, the
company plans a multi-specialty hospital at Asansol (West Bengal),
on the National Highway, for which it has acquired two acres of
land, and a few small brownfield projects.

The Medica group comprises four companies. Set up in March 2003,
MSPL is the flagship company of the group. I-VEN Medicare, a
special investment vehicle of the ICICI Venture in the healthcare
segment, owns a two-third stake in MSPL while the remaining is

2008-09.


NARAYAN AGRO: CRISIL Cuts Rating on INR70MM Cash Credit to 'C'
--------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has downgraded its rating on Narayan Agro Foods Ltd's cash
credit facility to 'C' from 'BB+/Stable'.  The downgrade reflects
instances of delay by Narayan Agro in repayment of its vehicle
loan instalment (not rated by CRISIL) due to weak liquidity; the
liquidity is weak because of the company's large working capital
requirements.

   Facilities                     Ratings
   ----------                     -------
   INR70.0 Million Cash Credit    C (Downgraded from 'BB+/Stable')

The rating also reflects Narayan Agro's small scale of operations,
and dependence on contractors for milk procurement. These rating
weaknesses are partially offset by Narayan Agro's established
presence in the dairy products industry.

Narayan Agro was initially incorporated in 1976 by the Goyal
family as Jiwan Milk and Allied Specialities Ltd; after being
renamed Roadmaster Foods Ltd in 1997 and RMI Foods Ltd in 2002,
the company got its current name in 2007.  Narayan Agro
manufactures skimmed milk powder (SMP) and ghee, and has capacity
of 7000 tonnes per annum (tpa) or 0.5 million litres per day
(lpd). It sells its products under the Shakti, Jiwan, and Gauma
brands.

Narayan Agro, on a provisional basis, reported a net loss of
INR4.7 million on net sales of INR415 million for 2009-10 (refers
to financial year, April 1 to March 31), against a profit after
tax of INR1.3 million on net sales of INR412 million for 2008-09.


NOMAX ELECTRICAL: CRISIL Assigns 'B+' Rating to INR30MM Term Loan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'B+/Stable/P4' rating to Nomax Electrical
Steel Pvt Ltd's bank facilities.

   Facilities                           Ratings
   ----------                           -------

   INR60 Million Bills Discounting      B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR30 Million Term Loan              B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR120 Million Letter of Credit      P4 (Assigned)

The rating reflects NESL's exposure to risks related to intense
competition and revenue dependence on transmission and
distribution (T&D) activity of state electricity boards (SEBs) and
its below-average financial risk profile characterized by weak
capital structure and modest debt protection measures.  These
rating weaknesses are partially offset by NESL's established
market position in transformer cores segment aided by extensive
experience of promoters.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that NESL will continue to benefit from its
established market position, and healthy growth potential in the
power sector. However, the ratings are likely to remain
constrained by the company's below-average financial risk profile.
The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' in case of increase in
its scale of operations and profitability.  Conversely, the
outlook could be revised to 'Negative' if the company undertakes a
large, substantially debt-funded capex programme, or in case of a
steep decline in its revenues and deterioration in its
profitability.

                       About Nomax Electrical

NESL was set up as a partnership firm in 1986 named Eastern
Electricals, and was rechristened as Nomax Electrical Steel
Private Limited in April 2007. NESL is engaged in the business of
processing of transformer cores, such as, wound and tordial cores;
cold rolled grain oriented (CRGO) strips slit coils, and stacked
cores which are used in the manufacture of distribution and power
transformers.  The promoter directors of the company Mr. Moinuddin
Mondal and Mr. Nasiruddin Mondal have been in this line of
business since 1981.

NESL reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR11.62 million on net
sales of INR332 million for 2008-09 (refers to financial year,
April 1 to March 31) against a PAT of INR12.10 million on net
sales of INR262.20 million for 2007-08.

   INR90.0 Million Letter of Credit   P4 (Assigned)
   INR58.0 Million Bank Guarantee     P4 (Assigned)

The ratings reflect RMS's constrained financial flexibility
because of the covenants imposed by banks, and its working-
capital-intensive operations because of its high debtor level.
These rating weaknesses are partially offset by the diversity in
RMS's product profile.

RMS manufactures medical diagnostic equipment.  It was founded as
a proprietorship firm by Mr. Suman Jolly in 1977, and
reconstituted as a company in 2005. RMS has two manufacturing
facilities, one in Panchkula, Chandigarh, for sheet metal work,
and the other in Baddi, Himachal Pradesh, for manufacture of
diagnostic equipment.  The Baddi facility has 100 per cent
exemption from excise duty and income tax till 2013-14 (refers to
financial year, April 1 to March 31). RMS manufactures 23 products
with multiple variants serving different therapeutic categories.

For 2008-09, RMS reported a profit after tax (PAT) of INR16
million on net sales of INR810 million, against a PAT of INR33
million on net sales of INR351 million for the previous year.


SRI VELA: CRISIL Assigns 'B+' Rating to INR130MM Long-Term Loan

CRISIL has assigned its 'B+/Stable/P4' ratings to Sri Vela
Smelters Pvt Ltd's bank facilities.

   Facilities                           Ratings

   INR100.00 Million Cash Credit        B+/Stable (Assigned)
   INR130.00 Million Letter of Credit   P4 (Assigned)

The ratings reflect SVSPL's below-average financial risk profile,
marked by high gearing, exposure to risks related to intense
competition in the steel industry, and susceptibility to
volatility in raw material prices.  These rating weaknesses are
partially offset by SVSPL's promoters' experience as a scrap
trader, and its cost-efficient and integrated operations.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes that SVSPL will continue to benefit from its
promoter's experience in the steel industry, over the medium term.
The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' if the company's
realisation and profitability increase, and revenues become more
diversified, coupled with improvement in capital structure.
Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' if the
company operates at lower-than-expected capacity utilization, its
operating margin declines, or it undertakes a larger-than-expected
debt-funded capital expenditure programme.

                           About Sri Vela

Incorporated in 2003, SVSPL was promoted by Mr. T M Murugasen.
Its manufacturing facility is in Paramathivelur (Tamil Nadu).
SVSPL manufactures mild steel ingots and thermo-mechanically

plans to expand its manufacturing facility with a new furnace, at
a cost of Rs.150 million in 2010-11. The company sells TMT steel
bars under the brand Vela in Tamilnadu and Kerala.

SVSPL reported an estimated profit after tax (PAT) of INR13.8
million on net sales of INR520 million for 2009-10 (refers to
financial year, April 1 to March 31), against a PAT of INR12.2
million on net sales of INR389.7 million for 2008-09.


STATEX ENGINEERING: CRISIL Assigns Default Ratings to Bank Debts
----------------------------------------------------------------
CRISIL has assigned its 'D/P5' ratings to Statex Engineering
Private Limited's bank facilities.

   INR25.00 Million Letter of Credit    P5 (Assigned)
   INR5.00 Million Bank Guarantee       P5 (Assigned)

The ratings reflect the delay by Statex in servicing its term
loan; the delay has been caused by Statex's weak liquidity, owing
to its stretched receivables and small scale of operations.

Statex has a below-average financial risk profile, marked by high
gearing and below-average debt protection metrics, and
susceptibility of margins to volatility in raw material prices.
However, Statex derives benefit from its diversified revenue
profile and its promoters' experience in the textile and
engineering industries.

                           About Statex

engineering and textile. The company commenced operations with the
engineering division: in this, it trades in instruments and other

NIKKO ELECTRONICS: Bursa to Delist Securities on July 27
--------------------------------------------------------
The securities of Nikko Electronics Berhad will be de-listed and
removed from the Official List of Bursa Securities on July 27,
2010.

The bourse said the delisting of the company's securities was in
accordance to the decision of Bursa Securities announced by the
Company on October 23, 2009.  It is noted that the Securities
Commission had rejected Nikko's proposed restructuring scheme and
the Company's board of directors had decided not to appeal against
the decision.

On June 30, 2008, Nikko Electronics Bhd. was classified as an
affected listed issuer under Practice Note 1/2001 (PN1/2001) of

The company had been loss-making and its ventures to manufacture
new products had also failed to make a profitable contribution
to it.  Nikko will also be suspending its business activities to
prevent incurring further losses.

TAS to finalize a conclusive debt restructuring proposal with the
lenders under a scheme of arrangement to restructure the debts

Bhd's Proposed Restructuring Scheme.

HwangDBS Investment Bank Berhad and Hong Leong Investment Bank

and Main Beach's Westfield Queensgate store in Lower Hutt shut
last week.

PHILIPPINE AIRLINES: In Talks With Several Possible Investors
-------------------------------------------------------------
Philippine Airlines Inc. is in talks with several fund managers
and Asian carriers for possible investment in the company, The
Manila Times reports.

"The shareholders want [investors] to inject fresh capital.  So,
PAL will not get from the shareholders.  That's the structure that
we are looking at rather than the shareholders selling their
shares," Jaime Bautista, the flag carrier's president told
reporters on Friday, according to The Manila Times.

"We will issue new shares -- that's the ideal. It's possible
through PAL Holdings Inc.," the report quoted Mr. Bautista as
saying.  Lucio Tan's stake may be diluted if the tobacco tycoon
decides not to infuse additional capital into the firm, Mr.
Bautista added, the report notes.

According to Manila Times, Mr. Bautista ruled out Cathay Pacific
and the International Airline of United Arab Emirates as among the
carriers interested to invest in PAL.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific on
April 21, 2010, the Manila Bulletin said that the Philippine
Airlines is spinning off its three non-core units as a last resort
to avoid bankruptcy.  PAL will spin off its three non-core units:
inflight catering services; airport services, including ground
handling, cargo handling and ramp handling; and call center
reservations by May 31, the Manila Bulletin said.  According to
The Manila Standard Today, the PAL Employees Union estimated that
2,000 to 4,000 employees assigned to those departments could be
retired.  The Manila Standard related that PAL president Jaime
Bautista said competition from overseas carriers, slower global
economic growth, and higher oil prices had prompted the airline to
slash its non-core businesses.  The carrier had approached several
investors but failed to secure financial help, and equity had
dropped to a worrisome US$1.1 million as of February 2010,
according to the Manila Standard.

                      About Philippine Airlines

Philippine Airlines -- http://www.philippineairlines.com/-- is
the Philippines' national airline.  It was the first airline in
Asia and the oldest of those currently in operation.  With its
corporate headquarters in Makati City, Philippine Airlines flies
both domestic and international flights.  First taking off in
1941, the carrier has grown into a fleet of about 40 aircraft
(including five Boeing 747-400s) flying to more than 20 domestic
points and about 30 foreign destinations.


PHILIPPINE AIRLINES: EU Refuses to Lift Ban on Philippine Carriers
------------------------------------------------------------------
The European Union has refused to remove the Philippines from a
list of countries whose airlines are banned from flying to the
continent due to the lack of substantial industry-wide reforms in
their local aviation sector, the Philippine Daily Inquirer
reports.

According to the Inquirer, Philippine Airlines said it was able to
convince EU officials that PAL was of international standards.
However, the report says, the company's pleas to be excluded from
the ban fell on deaf ears.

"We made a presentation to the EU last June and we were able to
convince them that we are a safe airline," the Inquirer quoted PAL
president and chief operating officer Jaime J. Bautista as saying.
"But they told us they were sorry and they could not give in to
our request to be taken out of the blacklist," he said, the report
adds.

According to the report, Mr. Bautista said that although PAL has
no flights to Europe at the moment, the ban kept the airline from
making plans to revive operations in the continent.  The report
relates Mr. Bautista likewise said that as a result of the ban,
European travel agencies have stopped selling PAL tickets to
tourists who may want to take the flag carrier to visit
attractions in the Philippines.

Philippine carriers were thrown into a blacklist of airlines
banned from flying to Europe following the poor grade received
from the International Civil Aviation Organization, according to
the Inquirer.  The Philippines was also downgraded to a category 2
status by the U.S. Federal Aviation Authority, the report notes.

As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific on
April 21, 2010, the Manila Bulletin said that the Philippine
Airlines is spinning off its three non-core units as a last resort
to avoid bankruptcy.  PAL will spin off its three non-core units:

Tuesday's edition of the TCR-AP delivers a list of indicative
prices for bond issues that reportedly trade well below par.
Prices are obtained by TCR-AP editors from a variety of outside
sources during the prior week we think are reliable.   Those
sources may not, however, be complete or accurate.  The Tuesday
Bond Pricing table is compiled on the Friday prior to
publication.  Prices reported are not intended to reflect actual
trades.  Prices for actual trades are probably different.  Our
objective is to share information, not make markets in publicly
traded securities.  Nothing in the TCR-AP constitutes an offer
or solicitation to buy or sell any security of any kind.  It is
likely that some entity affiliated with a TCR-AP editor holds
some position in the issuers' public debt and equity securities
about which we report.

A list of Meetings, Conferences and Seminars appears in each
Wednesday's edition of the TCR-AP. Submissions about insolvency-
related conferences are encouraged.  Send announcements to
conferences@bankrupt.com

Friday's edition of the TCR-AP features a list of companies with
insolvent balance sheets obtained by our editors based on the
latest balance sheets publicly available a day prior to
publication.  At first glance, this list may look like the
definitive compilation of stocks that are ideal to sell short.
Don't be fooled.  Assets, for example, reported at historical
cost net of depreciation may understate the true value of a
firm's assets.  A company may establish reserves on its balance
sheet for liabilities that may never materialize.  The prices at
which equity securities trade in public market are determined by
more than a balance sheet solvency test.
