AI summary

CRISIL downgraded Deccan Cements long-term rating to BB/Stable from BBB/Stable, and short-term rating to A4+ from A3+. CRISIL cited issuer non-cooperation as the reason. The company counters that it had fully repaid all term loans before the rating action and had informed CRISIL, but CRISIL did not verify this with the banks. BB rating falls below investment grade.

Likely market impact

Rating cuts below investment grade may hurt sentiment. Company disputes the move citing full loan repayment, so real financial impact could be limited.
