    PROFILE

    Mirz a Jute Mil l Ltd. (hereinafter r eferred t o as MJML

    or the Company) is a private limited company

    incorporated on 13 April 2005. The production

    facili ty is located at Fulbari, Dinajp ur. MJML produces

    Gunny Bag and Twine of jute. The production

    capacity is 8 Ton per day of either bag or twine. The

    Company runs under the flagship of Mirza Group.

    The businesses of Mirza grup is established in

    Dinajpur region of Rajshahi division of Bangladesh.

    The Group has 3 other concerns Mirza Woven Bag

    (Pvt.) Ltd., Mirza Auto Rice Mills Ltd., and Noor Alam

    EXIM Industries Ltd. run under t he leadership of Md.

    Noor Alam and his son Md. Mizanur Rahman (Ripon).

    RA T I O N A L E

    Credit Rating Agency of Bangladesh Ltd. (CRAB) has

    assigned BB1(Lr) rating to BDT 250.00 million Bai-

    Muajjall limit and BDT 39.30 million Long Term

    Outstanding (LTO) credit facilities availed by Mirza

    Jute Mill s Ltd.

    The rating takes into account the group strength of

    Mirza Group with i ts presence in agro- based

    businesses Rice mill, food grain crushing mill

    (flour, pulse), and packaging producti on units- jut e

    mill and polypropylene woven bags marketed in the

    agro based economy of Dinajpur and other markets

    of the country. The gradual rise of the group and

    diversifying risk of business by engaging in different

    type of business has also been considered in the

    rating assigned.

    MJML serves the regional m arket f or packagi ng ofagro products through its jute bags and twines

    produced t hrough jut e spinning. MJML procur es raw

    jute fr om local mark et and sell s it s pr oduce to

    regional local market. The rating takes in to account

    the stabilit y in p roduction and sales volume of MJML.

    However unavailability of past data limits scope of

    analyzing the gr owth att ained b y MJML over t he tim e.

    The rating takes into consideration the demand for

    the product in the regional agro- based market where

    MJML operates. The increase in establi shment of

    auto rice mills as well as other agro products would

    keep the demand for the product intact indicating a

    prospective business opportunity in future.

    The assigned ratings are highly constrained due to

    unavailability of past audited financials and absence

    of proper books of accounts which could aid in

    quantitative analysis of the financial performance of

    the Company; absence of which eventually limits the

    scope of assessing the credit worthiness of the

    entity. As a result CRAB abstains from assigning

    entity rating. However, the bank loan ratings are

    assigned considering the nature of the industry in

    which the Company operates, terms and conditions

    of the loan facilities, banking transaction and

    relation with bank.

    The rating draws comfort from the succession

    planning of the business and the successors vision

    of setting up a corporate structure; although at

    present the business though being a company

    registered under the Registr ar of Join t Stock

    Companies lacks adequate record keeping for

    operational and financial references.
