ICRA Rating Update
In its filing to stock exchanges on Monday, June 16, DLF said that credit rating agency ICRA has upgraded its credit rating on the long-term facilities/instruments of DLF Cyber City Developers Limited (‘DCCDL’), a material subsidiary of the company.
Here is the latest update.
Facilities/ Instrument | Revised Rating | Rating Action |
---|---|---|
Non-Convertible debentures ISINs: INE186K07080; and INE186K07098 | [ICRA]AAA (Stable) | Rating upgraded from [ICRA]AA+; Outlook revised to Stable from Positive |
Long-term – Fund based – Term loan | [ICRA]AAA (Stable) | Rating upgraded from [ICRA]AA+; Outlook revised to Stable from Positive |
Long-term – Fund based/ non-fund based – others | [ICRA]AAA (Stable) | Rating upgraded from [ICRA]AA+; Outlook revised to Stable from Positive |
Short-term – non-fund Based | [ICRA]A1+ | Rating reaffirmed |

ICRA said that the rating upgrade factors in the improvement in the scale of operations and net operating income projections for FY2026 and FY2027, which is driven by the commencement of rentals from the recently completed assets and strong occupancy levels in the existing assets.
“The rating action positively factors in the company’s conservative expansion plans, with the overall under-construction portfolio to remain at a moderate level over the medium to long term,” ICRA said.
The stable outlook reflects ICRA’s opinion that the DCCDL Group will benefit from the large portfolio of completed assets with a reputed tenant profile and healthy leasing levels, comfortable leverage position and strong financial flexibility, it further said.
