Qualification reduction
In February of this year, the Crisil qualification reduced the qualification of AGS Transacta ₹ 900 million rupees in the installation of bank loans to ‘d’ or garbage from ‘A’, since it delayed the payment of its loan.

The company has not yet revealed any instance of delay or breach. They have an adequate average to support the debt obligations nearby by 2024 in December 2024 in its declaration of breach presented in November 2024 “, said the chry -grades.
As for interactions with AGS’s management, Crisil said he believes that the company’s liquidity has deteriorated sharply in the last 2-3 months due to the delay in collection of collection, since AGS could not meet the service level funds. Despite a repeated follow -up with AGS for more details, the agency said it has not yet resorted to any detail about AGS’s deficiencies to fulfill its SLA.
