The agency has also upgraded the company’s short-term rating to ‘CRISIL A1’ from ‘CRISIL A2+’.

CRISIL’s rating upgrade reflects the improvement in IWL’s business risk profile on account of substantial improvement in operating performance.

Further, it notes that the company’s deleveraging efforts through equity raise significantly improves its financial risk profile.

Going ahead, a healthy net order book of 2.7 GW as of 31 May 2024 provides large revenue growth visibility and sustained profitability for IWL, supported by policy tailwinds in the wind sector.

Kailash Tarachandani, CEO of Inox Wind, said: "The latest ratings upgrade by CRISIL is an outcome of all the efforts undertaken by the company in the recent past.

We have successfully raised funds to strengthen our balance sheet and also ramped up our operations. Further, with the transition to our state-of-the-art 3MW WTGs, we have embarked on a superlative growth journey with strong profitability. With the support and confidence of all our stakeholders, we are striding ahead from strength to strength."
