Credit Rating Advisory for CRISIL.
CRISIL, part of S&P Global, is one of India's oldest and largest credit rating agencies, widely used as a benchmark by lenders. We prepare the financial, business and governance case a company presents when seeking a CRISIL rating, so the outcome reflects genuine credit strength.
CRISIL Rating Preparation · Rating Enhancement · Pre-Rating Diagnostic
Where This Applies
- A CRISIL rating is needed for a debt issuance, bank facility, or as a standing credibility signal.
- The current financial and governance profile needs review against what CRISIL typically evaluates.
- A weaker-than-expected rating in the past needs to be understood and addressed before reapplying.
- Rating-linked pricing on existing or planned borrowing makes the outcome commercially significant.
How We Approach It
We run a pre-rating diagnostic against the criteria CRISIL typically evaluates — leverage, coverage, governance and business risk — and address genuine gaps before the rating process begins, rather than reacting after a rating outcome.
Why EquiFin
- Independent advisory — we structure the rating narrative, we are not a rating agency ourselves.
- 60+ active lender relationships across PSU banks, private banks, NBFCs and private credit funds who rely on these ratings.
- One point of contact from pre-rating diagnostic through to the final rating outcome.
