ICRA Reaffirms Long-Term Rating of Srinivasa Rice Industry

Srinivasa Rice Industry, a leading player in the rice milling industry, has been reaffirmed with a long-term rating of ICRA B+ (pronounced ICRA B plus) by ICRA, a leading credit rating agency in India.

The company's policy restrictions on open market sales, competitive industry landscape, and exposure to climatic risks are also significant constraints.
