Utilization 0.00% 13.75% 0.00% 0.00% While the collections of all pools have been about 100%, that for Aragorn it has been about 97%. This is because of some delays in receiving collections from in all the pools. The share of in the balance pool of Aragorn is very high at 72% and hence the impact of delayed collections from the company is highest in this transaction. Nevertheless, despite the delay, subsequently collections have come from and owing to the strong performance of pools of all other issuers, there is negligible delinquencies in the pools. On account of this no cash collateral has been utilized till date. In our view, the credit enhancement available in all the transactions is sufficient to support the revised rating level of the PTCs. ICRA will continue to monitor the performance of these transactions. Any further rating action on these pools will be based on the performance of the pools, the availability of credit enhancement and the credit profile of the Servicers.
