We view Azure Power as “Low Risk” on the LARA scale. We like the company's contractual revenue streams and stable EBITDA margin, which are supported by: [1] a stable amount of solar radiation; [2] fixed tariffs based on long-term PPAs (25 years); and [3] minimal operating costs, as solar panels have no moving parts. The business risk profile is highly robust, with the impact from COVID-19 limited. However, the credit profile is somewhat weighed down by the company's high leverage and some delayed payments from distribution companies that could be facing financial stress.  Our fundamental Credit Bias is “Stable”, due to the stable and predictable revenues and EBITDA.
