Healthy liquidity earns Infopark top rating
As CRISIL marks long-term banking facilities as a critical criterion in its ratings, the agency points out “healthy liquidity driven by fund infusion from the Government of Kerala” as a major reason for the state-run Infopark’s latest achievement.
“Infopark has a healthy financial risk profile marked by low gearing and comfortable debt protection metrics,” CRISIL said. “Driven by modest debt in capital structure, gearing has remained less than 0.1 times. Limited debt has also resulted in low financial charges, which has led to a healthy interest coverage ratio. The financial risk profile should continue to be moderate over the medium term.”

Infopark CEO Susanth Kurunthil said the A/Stable rating reveals a consistency in the growth profile of the IT hub which is completing two decades.
The 1987-founded CRISIL, headquartered in Mumbai, serves lenders, investors, issuers, market intermediaries and regulators by covering manufacturing companies, banks, NBFCs, PSUs, financial institutions, states, urban local bodies and mutual funds.
