Add a comment ↓I perfectly agree that how the rating agencies, like Infomerics, could give such AA rating despite the company incurring losses in the past.
SEBI has rightly embarked upon a plan, now, to check and put in place a system of regulating the rating agencies which have mushroomed like any thing.
Thanks for your comments Kamalji
