EVALUA PTY: Liquidators Put Assets Up for Sale
----------------------------------------------
Cliff Sanderson at Dissolve.com.au reports that expressions of
interest are sought for the sale of the assets of Evalua Pty
Limited. The company entered liquidation Nov. 27, 2014 with Frank
Lo Pilato and Jonathon Colbran of RSM Bird Cameron being appointed
as liquidators of the company, the report says.
Dissolve.com.au relates that the assets for sale include software
development environment, source code for the software products of

FIRSTMAC MORTGAGE: S&P Assigns 'BB' Rating to Class B-3 Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's Ratings Services assigned its ratings to six
classes of prime residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS)
issued by Firstmac Fiduciary Services Pty Ltd. as trustee for
Firstmac Mortgage Funding Trust No.4 Series 3PP-2014.
The ratings reflect:
-- S&P's view of the credit risk of the underlying collateral
portfolio, including the fact that this is a closed
portfolio, which means no further loans will be assigned to
the trust after the closing date.
-- S&P's view that the credit support is sufficient to
withstand the stresses it applies. This credit support
comprises lenders' mortgage insurance to 55.5% of the
portfolio, which covers 100% of the face value of these
loans, accrued interest, and reasonable costs of
enforcement, as well as note subordination for all rated
notes.
-- S&P's expectation that the various mechanisms to support
liquidity within the transaction, including an amortizing
liquidity reserve equal to 0.9% of the invested amount of
all notes that is provided through note overissuance,
principal draws, a spread reserve that builds from
available excess spread, and 24 months' timely payment
cover on approximately 44.4% of loans in the portfolio, are
sufficient under S&P's stress assumptions to ensure timely
payment of interest.
-- The extraordinary expense reserve of A$150,000, funded from
day one by Firstmac Ltd., available to meet extraordinary
expenses. The reserve will be topped up via excess spread
if drawn.
-- S&P's view of the underwriting standards and centralized
approval processes of the originator, Firstmac Ltd.,
together with S&P's view on the servicing standards of
Firstmac Ltd. as the servicer of the loans.
-- The fixed-to-floating interest-rate swap provided by
National Australia Bank Ltd. to hedge the mismatch between
receipts from fixed-rate mortgage loans and the variable-
rate RMBS.
The issuer has informed Standard & Poor's (Australia) Pty Limited
that the issuer will not be publicly disclosing all relevant
information about the structured finance instruments that are
subject to this rating report.
STANDARD & POOR'S 17G-7 DISCLOSURE REPORT
SEC Rule 17g-7 requires an NRSRO, for any report accompanying a
credit rating relating to an asset-backed security as defined in
the Rule, to include a description of the representations,
warranties and enforcement mechanisms available to investors and a
description of how they differ from the representations,
warranties and enforcement mechanisms in issuances of similar
securities.

GIPPSLAND SECURED: ASIC Deregisters Company Auditor
---------------------------------------------------
The Australian Securities and Investment Commission has cancelled
the registration of the auditor of Gippsland Secured Investments
(GSI) following a deficient audit of the since collapsed debenture
issuer.
Under an enforceable undertaking (EU) with ASIC, Joanne Keng Yee
Loh of Morwell, Victoria, has agreed to never reapply for
registration or perform any duties or functions of an auditor.
Ms Loh was the lead auditor responsible for the audits of GSI for
the 2011 and 2012 financial years. In September 2013, receivers
were appointed to the company.
ASIC Commissioner John Price said, 'Ms Loh failed to properly
carry out her work as auditor.
'Auditors need to be at the top of their game and apply the
appropriate standards to ensure that the investing public can have
confidence in the financial reports of public companies and
debenture issuers.'
An ASIC investigation found Ms Loh did not conduct the audits in
accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards. ASIC formed the
view Ms Loh failed, among other things, to:
-- design and perform audit procedures in relation to loan
receivables and obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to
reduce the risk of material misstatement in the financial reports
to an acceptably low level
-- display an appropriate level of professional scepticism when
auditing the provision for impairment of loans receivable, and
when assessing related party transactions and GSI's ability to
continue as a going concern, and
-- prepare audit documentation sufficiently to enable an
experienced auditor to understand the audit procedures performed
and evidence obtained.
GSI was an unlisted public company based in the Bairnsdale,
Victoria involved in raising funds by issuing debentures and
making loans primarily for property investment purposes. The
loans were secured by registered mortgages granted by the
borrowers in favour of GSI.
In September 2013, receivers were appointed to GSI, with the
company's loan book consisting of 232 loans totalling
approximately AUD117 million and with issued notes/debentures of
approximately AUD143 million to 3,500 account holders.
ASIC has taken action against the auditors of several failed
debenture issuers, including Brian Patrick Kingston (Wickham
Securities) and Warren John Sinnott (Banksia Financial Group).
GOLDCON CONSTRUCTION: Administrators Seek Expression of Interest

According to the report, the sale also includes a fleet of

tampers and other related equipment. The company has been famous
for its record on culvert construction, derailment incident
management and rail improvement. The new owner will also obtain
rail accreditation completion and a skilled workforce.

MAN TO MAN: Menswear Chain Placed in Voluntary Administration
-------------------------------------------------------------
James Stewart and Brendan Richards of Ferrier Hodgson, on Dec. 17,
2014, were appointed Voluntary Administrators of Man to Man
(Imports) Pty Ltd, Toman Investments Pty Ltd, and Stone Shoes Pty
Ltd and.
"The Administrators are conducting a marketing campaign to seek
offers for the sale of the business as it continues to trade,"
Ferrier Hodgson said in a statement.
"The Administrators have advised that employee entitlements are
expected to be paid however it is too early to form a view as to
the likelihood of a return to unsecured creditors."
SmartCompany says creditors are owed a total of AUD28 million,
which includes AUD7 million owed to trade creditors and landlords,
AUD13 million owed to related parties and $8 million owed to other
creditors.
SmartCompany says Mr. Stewart said the collapse was caused by a
"failed investment decision in a men's show retail chain and tough
retail trading conditions during 2014".
"The business is continuing to trade normally while the
administrators conduct a marketing campaign and seek offers for
the sale of the business as a going concern," the report quotes
Mr. Stewart as saying.
Man to Man is a Melbourne-based menswear chain. It employs
approximately 400 people. Man to Man has 80 stores across
Australia.

DELTA TECHNOLOGY: Nasdag Retains Listing of Warrants
----------------------------------------------------
Delta Technology Holdings Limited on Dec. 16 disclosed that on
December 11, 2014, the Nasdaq Hearings Panel determined to grant
the Company's request to have its warrants remain listed on The
Nasdaq Stock Market, subject to certain conditions.
The Panel's decision was based upon the Company's December 4, 2014
appeal of the Nasdaq Staff's decision to delist the Company's
warrants from Nasdaq due to a failure to comply with Listing Rule
5560(a), which requires, in part, that warrants listed on Nasdaq
must have an underlying security that is also listed on Nasdaq or
is a Covered Security.
The Panel's continued listing decision is conditioned upon Delta's
application for its ordinary shares listing on the Nasdaq being
approved by the Listing Qualifications Staff on or before April
29, 2015.
The Company is working to have its ordinary shares resume trading
on Nasdaq. The Company completed its initial business combination
on September 19, 2014, and on October 1, 2014, the Company's
Series A Shares ceased trading on Nasdaq.

Exchange Commission its quarterly report on Form 10-Q disclosing
a net loss of $205,682 on $85,776 of sales for the three months

of sales for the same period in 2013.
For the six months ended Oct. 31, 2014, the Company reported a net

assets, $1.02 million in total liabilities, all current, and $2.42
million in total stockholders' equity.
"The Company has incurred material losses from operations. At
October 31, 2014, the Company had an accumulated deficit in
addition to limited cash, limited revenue and unprofitable
operations. For the six months ended October 31, 2014, the
Company sustained net losses. These factors, among others, raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern for a reasonable period of time. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the
amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The
Company's continuation as a going concern is contingent upon its
ability to obtain additional financing and to generate revenue and
cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis."

B.D. AGRICARE: ICRA Assigns B Rating to INR4.85cr Cash Credit

Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Long Term Fund based
limits - Term Loan 3.50 [ICRA]B; (Assigned)
Long Term Fund based
limits - Cash Credit 4.85 [ICRA]B; (Assigned)
ICRA's ratings take into account the company's modest scale of
operations and limited operational track record and its presence
in the intensely competitive non-basmati rice segment in the
domestic and export markets. The ratings also factor in BDAP's
modest profitability, which is further limited by low contribution
of export revenues and which is vulnerable to agro-climatic risks.
The agro-climatic risks may impact the availability of paddy in
adverse weather conditions and may result in lower capacity
utilization for the rice mill. The ratings also take cognizance of
the weak financial profile of the company which is characterized
by its leveraged capital structure. However, the ratings
favourably factor in the extensive experience of the promoters, of
more than two decades, in rice milling operations along with the
company's satisfactory performance during the initial months of
operations. The plant is located in one of the major paddy
cultivating belts, which provides easy access to paddy.
Going forward the ability of the company to scale up its
operations while improving its debt coverage indicators, along
with optimally managing the working capital requirements would be
the key rating sensitivities.
Incorporated in 2011, BDAP is promoted by Mr. Krishna Murari
Gupta, Mr. Suraj Kumar Gupta and Mrs. Uma Shanker Gupta. The
company mills, processes, and sells non-basmati rice in the
domestic as well as export markets. Its plant is located at Basti
in Uttar Pradesh has a milling capacity of 8 Tonnes per hour and a
sorting capacity of 6 Tonnes per hour. The plant commenced
commercial operations from September 2013. The company derives
about 70% of its revenues from the domestic market and sells to
merchant exporters and distributors across India under various
brands like 'Swadisht bhog'. The balance revenues are contributed
by exports to Nepal and Bangladesh.
Recent Results
BDAP reported a profit after tax of INR0.07 crore on an operating
income of INR15.51 crore in 2013-14.

---------- ----------- -------
Fund Based-Term Loan 0.93 [ICRA]B+ reaffirmed

The reaffirmation of rating continues to factor in Bhavani Cotex's
(BC) modest scale of operations and financial profile
characterized by low profitability, high gearing and low debt
coverage indicators. ICRA also takes note of the highly
competitive and fragmented industry structure with the limited
value additive nature of operations which leads to pressure on
profitability. The rating further incorporates the vulnerability
of margins to adverse movements in raw material prices, which in
turn is linked to the seasonal nature of the cotton industry and
government regulations on MSP and export. Also, being a
partnership firm, any substantial withdrawal by the partners can
have an adverse impact on the capital structure of the firm.
The rating, however, positively considers the long experience of
the partners in the cotton industry as well as the favorable
location of the firm, giving it easy access to high quality raw
cotton.
Bhavani Cotex was established in 2010 as a partnership firm. The
firm is promoted and managed by Mr. Gordhanbhai Patel, Mr.
Rakeshbhai Patel, and Mr. Naineshbhai Patel. It is engaged in raw
cotton ginning and pressing. The manufacturing unit is located at
Bodeli, Vadodara, Gujarat. It has 32 ginning machines and one

COBB APPARELS: ICRA Reaffirms B+ Rating on INR20cr LT Bank Loan

term fund based limits of Cobb Apparels Private Limited.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Long Term Fund- 20.00 [ICRA]B+; Reaffirmed
based bank
facilities
Rating Rationale
The rating continues to remain constrained on account of the
company's weak financial profile characterized by high leverage,
stretched liquidity and low profitability levels. Despite high
gross margin, the fixed overhead expenses (such as rentals,
employee costs and other store expenses) continue to remain high,
which coupled with significant proportion of discounted sales
undertaken to liquidate the unsold apparels of the previous
season, continue to result in low operating profitability.
Further, the working capital intensity continues to remain high
(NWC/OI at 42% as on March 31, 2014) which coupled with increase
in scale of operations (operating revenue increased by ~17% year-
on -year in FY14) in FY14 necessitated additional working capital
requirements which were funded through enhanced working capital
limits. This, coupled with moderate net worth, low profitability
and cash accruals continue to result in high gearing, weak debt
coverage indicators and stretched liquidity as reflected in
consistently high utilization of the working capital limits. The
rating however favorably factors in the improvement in sales
realization and the growing presence of its exclusive brand
outlets in the National Capital Region (wherein sales per outlet
is comparatively higher) and closure of low profit outlets.
Going forward, the ability of the company to improve its
profitability and attain a sustained reduction in its gearing
shall be the key rating sensitivities.
CAPL was incorporated in September 2007 and is engaged in
designing and retailing branded apparels for men in the domestic
market under its brand 'Cobb'. The company offers a wide range of
apparels which comprises of shirts, trousers, suits, T-shirts,
Bermudas, pullovers, jackets and men's accessories.
Recent Results
The company reported a net profit of INR0.22 crore on an operating
income of INR58.4 crore in FY 2013-14, as against a net profit of
INR0.21 crore on an operating income of INR49.8 crore in the

INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT: ICRA Rates INR10cr Term Loan at 'D'
------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has assigned a long term rating of [ICRA]D to the INR10.0
crore term loans of Institute of Management & Information Science.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Fund Based-Term Loans 10.00 [ICRA]D assigned
Rating Rationale
The assigned rating takes into account the recent delays in debt
servicing by the society, its adverse financial profile
characterized by continuing cash losses incurred over the last
couple of years and the significant decline in occupancy levels
during the last two to three academic years, thus leading to
continuous decline in the Society's fee revenues. The rating also
takes into account the moderate scale of IMIS's operations and its
exposure to revenue concentration risks, given that significant
proportion of the revenues are being derived from the MBA courses.
The rating however, draws comfort from the experience of the
management in the education sector with over two decades of
association with the same. Going forward the ability of the
society to attract students to increase the occupancy levels, in
order to generate adequate profits and cash accruals for timely
servicing of its debt obligations, will remain a key rating
sensitivity.
Incorporated in 1995, Institute of Management & Information
Science (IMIS) offers two full time MBA courses at its campus in
Bhubaneswar, Odisha. The institute has an intake capacity of 120
students for Post Graduate Diploma in Management and 60 students
for Post Graduate Diploma in Finance & Control. The current
strength of the students stands at 182.
Recent Results
IMIS reported a net loss of INR2.17 crore on an operating income
of INR6.07 crore during the financial year 2013-14, as compared to
a net loss of INR2.21 crore on an operating income of INR8.54
crore during the financial year 2012-13.
KARTIKA ISPAT: ICRA Suspends B Rating on INR8.4cr LT Loan

MADRAS MEDICAL: ICRA Ups Rating on INR24.85cr Term Loan to 'B'

Madras Medical Mission from [ICRA]D to [ICRA]B. ICRA has also
upgraded the short-term rating assigned to the INR60.35 crore
short term fund based and non-fund facilities (revised from 27.56)
of the Entity from [ICRA]D to [ICRA]A4.

Short term loan
facilities 40.00 [ICRA]A4/upgraded from
[ICRA]D
Non-fund based 20.35 [ICRA]A4/upgraded from
Facilities [ICRA]D
The rating upgrade factors in the regularisation in debt servicing
by the Entity, supported by revenue growth and margin improvement
during 2013-14, aided by improvement in occupancy in the flagship
Chennai facility. The ratings are constrained by MMM's stretched
capital structure due to accumulated losses over the years and
debt funded capital expenditure (to support periodic capital
expenditure), which is expected to remain under pressure in medium
term due to additional planned capex; thin profit margins due to
concessions being extended to patients for being a "not for profit
organization" and are also dependent on donations; concentration
risk due to high dependence on Chennai facility and high
dependence on short term loans, coupled with large repayment
obligations on term loans exposes the Entity to refinancing risks.
The ratings however draws comfort from MMM's long standing
presence in healthcare market in Chennai, with strong technical
capabilities backed by state-of-the art equipment and quality
professionals. ICRA also takes note of the expansion being
undertaken in Chennai and Pondicherry, which is expected to aid
revenue and accrual growth in medium term and will be critical for
improvement in credit profile.
The Madras Medical mission (MMM) is a registered society (under
the Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975) established in
1982 by Bishop Zachariah Mar Dionysius. MMM commenced operations
in 1987 by providing cardiac care treatment out of rented premises
and over the years has developed into a multi specialty hospital.
Currently MMM has a cardiac centre, reproductive medicine centre,
transplant centre for renal cases, gastroentology division,
radiology division and a nuclear medicine centre with 270 beds in
Madras unit. In 2001, MMM started the Pondicherry Institute of
Medical Sciences (PIMS) to provide medical education with the
current capacity of 590 beds. MMM has also entered into public
private partnership with the Ministries of Health and Family
Welfare of several countries including Tanzania, Seychelles,
Bangladesh, Fiji, Bahrain, Maldives and Rwanda for treatment of
their patients and for training of their medical and paramedical
professionals. In 2008, MMM College of Nursing was established to
train nursing personnel to serve the global markets.
Recent Results
MMM has reported net profit of INR5.9 crore on an operating income
of INR207.0 crore in 2013-14, as against net profit of INR2.1
crore reported on an operating income of INR183.5 crore for 2012-

MID INDIA: ICRA Reaffirms B+ Rating on INR80cr Long Term Loan
-------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has reaffirmed its long term rating of [ICRA]B+ on the INR80
crore long term bank facilities of Mid India Creations.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Long term fund 80.00 [ICRA]B+; reaffirmed
based limits
ICRA rating reaffirmation takes into account the favorable project
location on the Indore bypass road, which has many upcoming
residential and commercial projects nearby. Further, the rating
also takes into account the extensive experience of the promoters
in the construction and real estate industry. While reaffirming
the rating, ICRA has taken note of increase in the scope of the
project which has increased the estimated project cost from
INR123.27 crore to INR164.37 crore. Due to the change in the scope
of the project, the commercial operations date (COD) of the
project has been shifted from the previously planned date of
October 2014 to July 2015. However, given that 55% of the costs
were incurred by August 2014 (majority of which comprise of land
costs), achieving the targeted COD will be challenging. The
additional costs are being funded in almost the originally planned
debt to equity ratio of 1.55x. Nevertheless, the terms of the
loans are favorable with a maturity of eight years, along with
ballooning repayments starting from December 2015. Subsequently,
ability to achieve planned occupancies and realizations and thus
generate adequate cash accruals to meet the repayments will be
critical. Further, the rating factors in the concentration risk of
the revenue stream by virtue of the single hotel property and
risks inherent in a partnership firm.
Going forward, timely infusion of promoter funds, completion of
the project within the revised estimates and subsequently achieve
targeted realizations and occupancies will be crucial for timely
debt servicing and hence will remain the key rating sensitivities.
MIC is a partnership firm incorporated in October, 2011 under the
Limited Liability Partnership Act 2008 and is constructing a 120
room hotel in indore, Madhya Pradesh. MIC has three partners
belonging to the BCM Group and the Naidunia Group of Madhya

NITYA HOTELS: ICRA Assigns 'B+' Rating to INR5.0cr Term Loan
------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has assigned its rating of [ICRA] B+ to the INR5.7 crore
fund-based bank facilities of Nitya Hotels Private Limited.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Term Loan 5.0 [ICRA]B+; Assigned
Cash Credit 0.7 [ICRA]B+; Assigned
The rating is constrained by the hotel being in the initial phase
of operations with the ramp up in revenues critically dependent on
the hotel's ability to attract corporate clients. The rating is
further constrained by the cyclicality associated with the hotel
industry. With the hotel having started operations and repayments
having commenced from June 2014, any delay in stabilization of
cash flows would result in a cash flow mismatch and necessitate
external financing. However, the rating favourably factors in the
management agreement between NHPL and the Carlson Rezidor Hotel
Group for their 'Country Inn & Suites by Carlson' brand, which is
expected to lend the hotel an established global brand name and
provide it with operational and management expertise. The rating
also takes into account the extensive experience of the promoters
in the real estate business, having managed resorts in the past as
well. Further, the rating also takes into account the first mover
advantage the hotel enjoys on account of it being the first
operational international brand hotel in Bhiwadi.
The stabilization of operations to help the company attain break
even and improvement in its financial risk profile will be the key
rating sensitivities.
Incorporated in 2006, NHPL is a private limited company and has an
operational hotel in the Bhiwadi region of Alwar, Rajasthan. The
hotel is branded under Country Inns & Suites by Carlson, a brand
owned by the Carlson Rezidor group. As part of the management
agreement with Carlson Rezidor Group, Carlson Bestech Management
Services, the Indian affiliate of the group will manage the
operations of the hotel. The hotel has 50 guest rooms; a banquet
hall, a resto-bar, a coffee shop, a business centre, a banquet
hall, a fitness centre and a swimming pool. The hotel commenced
operations in June 2014.
The directors of the company include Mr. Lalit Kumar Dhingra and
Mr. Anil Gupta. The directors have experience in the construction
and real estate business. The promoters have an existing shopping
mall operational at Bhiwadi known as KG Plaza. They also have a
hospital under construction in Gurgaon, Haryana.
PANDIT AUTOMOBILES: ICRA Suspends B+/A4 Rating on INR9.5cr Loan
---------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has suspended [ICRA]B+/[ICRA]A4 rating assigned to the
INR9.50 crore, long term loans & working capital facilities of
Pandit Automobiles Private Limited. The suspension follows ICRA's
inability to carry out a rating surveillance in the absence of the

PRATEEK APPARELS: ICRA Upgrades Rating on INR70cr Loan to 'B-'
--------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has revised the long term rating outstanding on the INR25.00
crore term loan facilities and the INR70.00 crore fund based
facilities of Prateek Apparels Private Limited to [ICRA]B- from
[ICRA]D. ICRA has also revised the short term rating outstanding
on the INR30.00 crore fund based facilities and the INR6.00 crore
non-fund based facilities of PAPL to [ICRA]A4 from [ICRA]D.

Fund Based Limits 30.00 [ICRA]A4/Revised from
[ICRA]D
Non-fund based 6.00 [ICRA]A4/Revised from
facilities [ICRA]D
The revision of ratings reflects timely servicing of the debt
obligations by the Company over the last six months. The ratings
however remain constrained on account of the stretched liquidity
profile of PAPL due to high inventory levels. The Company operates
in a highly competitive environment in both the retail and
manufacturing operations, which limits the pricing flexibility
thereby resulting in thin operating margins. The ratings however
factor PAPL's reduced dependence on low value additive trading
business in the context of subdued domestic market demand; its
recent foray into e-retail segment and new customer additions in
the export market improving the Company's business mix. PAPL's
well established relationships with its major customers coupled
with long standing experience of the promoters in the garmenting
industry further lends business support.
Incorporated in 1995, PAPL is engaged in the businesses of making
readymade garments, retailing apparels and trading in fabric.
Promoted by Mr. Pradeep Aggarwal and the Phulchand Group, PAPL has
five manufacturing units in Karnataka. The Company largely makes
men's and women's formal and casual wear. The Company entered
retail operations in 2007 through its subsidiary Prateek Lifestyle

QUALITY TEA: ICRA Assigns B+ Rating to INR6.60cr Cash Credit
------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has assigned a long term rating of [ICRA]B+ to the INR6.60
crore cash credit facility, the INR1.73 crore term loan, the
INR0.50 crore bank guarantee and the INR0.17 crore unallocated
limits of Quality Tea Plantations Private Limited.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Cash Credit Facility 6.60 [ICRA]B+ assigned
Term Loan 1.73 [ICRA]B+ assigned
Bank Guarantee 0.50 [ICRA]B+ assigned
Unallocated Limits 0.17 [ICRA]B+ assigned
The rating takes into account QTPPL's weak financial profile
characterised by its low net profitability, moderate capital
structure and weak coverage indicators. ICRA notes that tea being
an agricultural commodity exposes the company to agro climatic
risks. A single garden located in the Jalpaiguri district of West
Bengal along with the small scale of current operations further
accentuates this risk for the company. Further, the cyclicality
associated with the bulk tea industry also tends to keep profits
and cash flows volatile. The rating however, draws comfort from
the experience of the promoters in the domestic bulk tea industry,
the favourable age profile of tea bushes leading to better
productivity and the company's superior quality of tea commanding
a premium over industry averages. ICRA also factors in the
favourable price outlook for the domestic bulk tea industry at
least over the short to medium term.
Quality Tea Plantations Pvt. Ltd. (QTPPL) was incorporated in 1989
and has a tea garden in the Jalpaiguri district of West Bengal
covering an area of around 659 hectares. The company primarily
produces CTC variety of tea which it sells in the domestic market
through a mix of auction and private sales.
Recent Results
QTPPL registered a profit after tax of INR0.13 crore on the back
of OI of INR21.72 crore in 2013-14. In 2012-13, the company
registered a profit after tax of INR0.05 crore on the back of OI
of INR20.24 crore.
S.M. COLD: ICRA Assigns 'B' Rating to INR0.52cr Term Loan
---------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has assigned an [ICRA]B rating to the INR0.52 crore term loan
facility of S.M. Cold Storage Private Limited. ICRA has also
assigned an [ICRA]A4 rating to the INR5.03 crore fund based and
INR0.26 crore non-fund based bank facilities of SMCSPL. An
unallocated amount of INR0.19 crore has been rated by ICRA at
[ICRA]B and [ICRA]A4 on long term and short term scale
respectively.

The assigned ratings take into account SMCSPL's small scale of
operations, its weak financial risk profile characterized by low
profitability, highly leveraged capital structure, subdued
business return indicators and depressed level of coverage
indicators. The ratings also take into account SMCSPL's exposure
to agro-climatic risks, with its business performance being
entirely dependent upon a single agricultural commodity, i.e.
potato, and its exposure to counter party risk arising from loans
extended to farmers, which may lead to delinquency, if potato
prices fall to a low level. The ratings take note of the regulated
nature of the industry that makes it difficult for SMCSPL to pass
on the increase in the operating costs in a timely manner,
leading, in turn, to a downward pressure on profitability. The
ratings, however, take into account the long track record of the
promoters in the cold storage business, and the locational
advantage of SMCSPL by way of presence of its cold storage unit in
West Bengal, a state with large potato production. In ICRA's
opinion, the ability of the company to improve profitability while
managing its working capital requirements would be a key rating
sensitivity going forward.
Incorporated in 1984, SMCSPL is a cold storage set up in Bankura
district of West Bengal. SMCSPL is primarily engaged in the
business of storage and preservation of potatoes. Currently,
SMCSPL has an annual storage capacity of 17,000 tonnes.

SAHARA GROUP: Awaits Ct. Ruling on New Loan For Chief's Release
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Times of India reports that embattled Indian conglomerate
Sahara is readying for a court verdict on December 24 that will
determine if it can take on a new loan and refinance debt on its
overseas hotels, including the Plaza in New York, to secure the
release of its jailed chief.
TOI relates that Sahara chairman Subrata Roy has been held in a
New Delhi jail for more than nine months now in Sahara's long-
running dispute with the country's capital markets regulator. The
feud is over the company's alleged failure to repay, with
interest, billions of dollars it had raised in bonds that were
later ruled to be illegal, the report says.
Mr. Roy's release from jail is crucial for the group as he
directly oversees its main businesses and is its public face,
according to the report.
TOI notes that Sahara's total liability has been estimated at up
to $7.4 billion by the regulator and the Supreme Court has
demanded Sahara pay INR100 billion ($1.6 billion) initially before
it grants interim bail to 66-year-old Roy, a prominent business
tycoon.
The report says the group has sought the court's permission to
raise $650 million in new debt and provide the remaining $900
million-plus by refinancing a loan from Bank of China (BOC)
through a willing creditor.
According to the report, Sahara has named in court a company
called Oasis as among those interested to refinance the BOC loan
and provide the new debt, but its identity was not immediately
clear in court documents that are public.
The group has also tried to sell its trophy hotels, including the
Plaza and Grosvenor House in London, but has not been successful.
The court has prohibited Sahara from selling the hotels at a
discount of more than 5 percent to current market value, the
report adds.
"There is no plan B as of now," said a person with knowledge of
Sahara's plans, adding the company was betting on the court
accepting its refinancing-cum-debt-raising proposal after which it
would try to close the deal at the earliest and apply for a bail
for Roy, TOI relays.
"What can you do? The potential bidders know the situation, and
they would like to do a bargain deal," said the person, who
declined to be named due to sensitivity of the issue," notes the
report.
Although the court is expected to pass an order on Sahara's plea
on December 24, it can also defer a verdict, the report notes.
Sahara has previously said that it had repaid most investors, a
claim the court and the markets regulator, the Securities and
Exchange Board of India, have disputed, TOI adds.
Sahara Group operates businesses ranging from finance, housing,
manufacturing and the media. Sahara also sponsors the Indian
hockey team and owns a stake in Formula One racing team, Force
India.
SAVFAB DEVELOPERS: ICRA Assigns B+ Rating to INR35cr Term Loan
--------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has assigned its long-term rating of [ICRA]B+ to the INR35.0
crore long term loan of Savfab Developers Private Limited. The
rating favourably factors in the experience of SBPL's promoters in
the real estate sector in the National Capital Region (NCR) and
the low approval risks for SBPL's project Jasmine Grove. The
rating also factors in the debt tie-up and the fact that promoters
have brought in a substantial part of their envisaged
contribution.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Term loans 35.0 [ICRA]B+; Assigned
However the rating is constrained by the execution risks given the
initial stage of project completion and the modest level of
bookings. The company plans to fund large part of the project cost
through promoter funds and bank debt, however with substantial
debt repayment obligation in 2016-17, it will be exposed to
refinancing risk in absence of strong bookings and consequent
collections. Moreover, with the company envisaging enhancing the
scope of the project applying for additional Floor Area Ratio
(FAR) approvals, upfront funding requirements are expected to
increase.
Going forward, the company's ability to improve booking levels,
execute the project as planned while managing its cashflows will
be key rating sensitivities. Further, the timing of any additional
approval costs and revenue share to land owning entities will also
be rating sensitivities.
Incorporated in 2012, SBPL is developing a residential project
called "Jasmine Grove" at Village Mehrauli, NH-24, Ghaziabad,
Uttar Pradesh. The project has a current saleable area of 455120
sq ft with a total cost of INR105 crore. The same is envisaged to
be funded through bank term loan of INR35 crore, customer advances
of INR41 crore and balance through promoter funds. The land is
owned by a consortium of SBPL and other promoter owned entities.
The company is part of the Saviour group which is promoted by Mr.
Dhanesh Goel and Mr. Vineet Goel who have been executing projects
in NCR for the past many years.

SHREE GOVARDHAN: ICRA Reaffirms B+ Rating on INR10cr FB Loan
------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has reaffirmed the long term rating of [ICRA]B+ to the
INR10.00 crore (Enhanced from INR9.00 crore) fund based facilities
of Shree Govardhan Steels Private Limited.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Fund Based limits 10.00 [ICRA]B+ (reaffirmed)
The rating reaffirmation continues to be constrained by company's
presence in a highly fragmented nature of industry with low entry
barriers. Further ICRA takes note of the deterioration in the
financial risk profile of the company as reflected by the fall in
net profit, increased gearing level and weak debt protection
metrics coupled with company's small scale of operations with
moderate capacity utilization of the plant which impacts business
returns. The rating, however, favorably factor in the long
experience of the promoters in the iron & steel business and
positive demand outlook for the Iron angles driven by increased
demand from infrastructure, manufacturing sectors, indicates
robust business potential for the company.
Shree Govardhan Steels Pvt. Ltd (SGSPL) was incorporated in the
year 2010 with the manufacturing facility situated at Kasganj
(U.P). The company is primarily engaged in manufacturing of Iron
Angles with a installed capacity of 30000 tons. The Company is
professionally managed by Mr. Ashish Agrawal.

Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Long term Fund 11.00 [ICRA]B+ (reaffirmed)
based limits
Unallocated limits 3.60 [ICRA]B+ (reaffirmed)
The ratings reaffirmation takes into account the marginal growth
in sales reported by SFL in FY14 and relatively moderate debt
protection metrics with gearing and interest coverage at 1.45
times and 2.3 times respectively as on 31st March 2014. Further,
low but improved capacity utilization of induction furnace and
rolling mill. The company is also planning a debt funded capex in
the near future, which may further deteriorate the coverage
indicators. Further, cash flows of SFL remained stretched with
negative free cash flows in FY14 and the profitability of the
company remained thin and exposed to persisting high competitive
nature of the industry. However, the ratings continue to draw
comfort from the long experience of the promoters in the steel
industry. The rating also factors in the integrated plant with
capabilities to manufacture MS Billets and TMT bars and low
working capital intensity of the company. ICRA has also taken into
consideration of the well established dealer network of the
company, which help SFL to maintain its sales despite of downturns
in the industry.
Incorporated in 1996, SFL is engaged in the manufacture of mild
steel (MS) ingots and thermo-mechanically treated (TMT) bars. The
manufacturing facility of the company is located at Devarapalli
Hindupur in the Ananthapur district of Andhra Pradesh. The
installed capacity of the facility for MS ingots is 19,500 metric
tonnes per annum (MTPA) and that for TMT bars is 60,000 MTPA. The
customer base of the company mainly comprises traders and
retailers based in and around Bangalore.

SPICEJET LTD: Parent Says Can't Make Large Sums to Revive Carrier
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Times of India reports that the parent of loss-making SpiceJet
Ltd cannot make large investment into the carrier and can do no
more than provide a guarantee for a bank loan needed to keep the
airline from collapsing, said Sun Group chief financial officer.
"We do not have the liquidity to invest large sums at the time
which is why we need bank financing. For which the promoters are
willing to provide a guarantee. We cannot do more than this," the
report quotes SL Narayanan as saying.
SpiceJet was forced to ground its entire fleet on December 17
after oil companies, which are owed money by the airline, refused
to refuel its planes, TOI notes.
As reported in the Troubled Company Reporter-Asia Pacific on
Dec. 18, 2014, Economic Times said the Civil Aviation Ministry
said on December 16 it may request Indian banks/financial
institutions to extend loans of up to INR600 crore to SpiceJet Ltd
as part of measures to keep the carrier functional.
Besides, it will also request the Finance Ministry to permit
external commercial borrowing (ECB) for working capital as special
dispensation, a Ministry release said, ET related.
Bloomberg News said SpiceJet reported five straight quarterly
losses and tried for more than two years to woo an external
investor to one of the world's most expensive markets for fuel,
which accounts for as much as 50 percent of the costs for some
Indian carriers.
Bloomberg said SpiceJet reduced its fleet of Boeing planes,
delayed wages, and faced regulatory scrutiny after a spate of
cancellations.

TAXUS INFRASTRUCTURE: ICRA Assigns B+ Rating to INR6cr FB Loan
--------------------------------------------------------------
ICRA has assigned ratings of [ICRA] B+ to the INR6.00 crores fund-

Limited. ICRA has also assigned ratings of [ICRA]A4 to the short
term non fund based bank lines of Taxus.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Fund Based limits 6.0 [ICRA]B+ assigned
Non Fund Based limits 15.0 [ICRA]A4 assigned
The rating is constrained below average performance of the solar
power plant which has held to below average debt coverage
indicators. The company is also engaged in providing turnkey
solution for automation of capacitor banks which is highly working
capital intensive thus has resulted in poor cash generation from
operations. In addition the company remains exposed to delays in
payments from state utilities who are its primary customers. In
addition to above the rating also factors in Taxus's modest scale
of operations which coupled with the company's low profitability
has resulted in modest cash accruals. However the ratings continue
to draw comfort from the long standing track record of promoters
in the power industry and successful commissioning of the 5.0 MW
solar power plant and firm PPA in place with GUVNL at an
attractive preferential tariff.
Going forward, operations of the plant need to be monitored in
order to benchmark the actual performance against the initially
projected level. The credit risk profile would remain
significantly dependent on the timely collection from GUVNL.
Taxus Infrastructure & Power Projects Private Limited (Taxus) was
established in the year 2009 in Delhi for providing turnkey
services in power industry. The company was promoted by Mr. Satyen
Sharma. Taxus Infrastructure & Power Projects Pvt. Ltd. is engaged
in providing turnkey solutions in Reactive Power Management, Up
gradation of Fixed Type Capacitor Banks to Automatic Capacitor

VISHWA GREEN: ICRA Assigns D Rating to INR14cr Term Loan

term fund based facilities of Vishwa Green Realtors Private
Limited.
Amount
Facilities (INR crore) Ratings
---------- ----------- -------
Term Loans 14.00 [ICRA]D assigned
Rating Rationale
The assigned rating factors in the recent instances of delays in
debt servicing by the company on account of its weak liquidity
position arising as a result of lower sales realisations from the
sold area coupled with cost escalations in one of the projects,
and utilization of some part of proceeds from ongoing projects for
purchase of land for upcoming projects. The rating also takes into
account the company's exposure to risks of time and cost overruns
for the two ongoing projects which are currently in the initial
stages of construction; and vulnerability of the company's
profitability to fluctuations in prices of key raw materials.
Further, the assigned rating is constrained by the company's
exposure to selling risks for the unsold portion of the projects
and to funding risks as the proposed debt funding for the two
ongoing projects is yet to be tied up.
The rating however favourably factors in the clear land title,
presence of key regulatory approvals for the projects, and
favourable location of the projects in the rapidly developing Navi
Mumbai region.
VGRPL was set up in August 2010 by Mr. Sunil Khanna and his son
Mr. Siddharth Khanna with the objective of undertaking development
of real estate projects in Navi Mumbai region. Mr. Sunil Khanna is
a textile engineer by qualification and has been operating a
proprietorship firm named Sagar Enterprises from 1995, which is
engaged in the business of supplying hosiery and textile items to
the canteen store departments of Indian defence sector. Although
the company has not executed any residential or commercial
projects previously, it is currently developing three residential

XACBANK: Fitch Affirms B Issuer Default Rating; Outlook Negative
----------------------------------------------------------------
Fitch Ratings has affirmed the Long-Term Issuer Default Rating
(IDR) of Mongolia-based XacBank LLC at 'B'. The Outlook remains
Negative. The Viability Rating (VR) was affirmed at 'b' and the
Support Rating Floor (SRF) affirmed at 'B-'.
KEY RATING DRIVERS - IDRS, VRS AND SENIOR DEBT
The VR-driven IDR of the bank captures the weakening operating
environment in Mongolia. This contributed to a spike in impaired
loans in 2014 following the bank's shift towards SME lending,
which now account for more than half of its loans, from
microfinance operations. Management has been tightening its
lending policies and Fitch believes that measures, such as
limiting loan growth, reducing foreign currency lending and higher
provisioning, could help the bank to maintain the financial
characteristics associated with the current rating level.
Adherence to its significantly lower growth target, possibly at
the expense of market share, should enable the bank to maintain
adequate capitalisation; XacBank's Fitch core capital ratio stood
at 10.7% at 1H14. The ratings also capture the bank's
satisfactory deposit franchise and stable access to foreign-
currency funding from multinational and bilateral institutions.
Diversified ownership and involvement of international
shareholders in the bank's management underpin a reasonable degree
of corporate governance.
XacBank's Outlook remains Negative as Fitch considers it possible
that XacBank's loan quality will continue to worsen as the
weakening local currency lowers the capacity of borrowers to repay
their foreign-currency loans.
RATING SENSITIVITIES - IDRS, VRS AND SENIOR DEBT
Fitch would downgrade XacBank's ratings if the bank were to
increase its risk appetite, if its tightened risk management was
insufficient to contain further material loan deterioration or if
the bank was not able to quickly react to tougher operating
conditions.
Positive rating actions could derive from improving operating
conditions, including a favourable resolution to a dispute between
Rio Tinto and the government over the Oyu Tolgoi copper mining
project and successful gradual removal of government stimulus
measures. Less reliance on external parties to fund growth would
be another consideration.
KEY RATING DRIVERS AND RATING SENSITVITIES - SUPPORT RATING AND
SUPPORT RATING FLOOR
The Support Rating (SR) and SRF of the bank reflect Fitch's view
that sovereign support, although possible, cannot be relied upon.
Although Fitch believes the government is willing to support
systemically important banks, its ability to do so remains
limited.
The SR and SRF are sensitive to changes in the authorities'
ability and willingness to provide support. An upgrade of
Mongolia's sovereign rating (B+/Negative) could result in a higher
SRF while a downgrade may not necessarily trigger a change as the
existing SR and SRF already indicate poor prospects for timely
support.
The rating actions are:
XacBank
Long-Term Foreign Currency IDR affirmed at 'B'; Outlook Negative
Short-Term Foreign Currency IDR affirmed at 'B'
Long-Term Local Currency IDR affirmed at 'B'; Outlook Negative
Viability Rating affirmed at 'b'
Support Rating affirmed at '5'
Support Rating Floor affirmed at 'B-'
In accordance with Fitch's policies the issuer appealed and
provided additional information to Fitch that resulted in a rating
action that is different than the original rating committee
outcome.

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.
