lower risk.

A company with a AAA rating is considered very safe for investors. If it issues bonds,
investors are likely to buy them due to minimal risk of default.
Solvency Ratios
Debt-Equity Ratio: Measures how much debt a company uses compared to its equity.
o Example: If a company has ₹100,000 in debt and ₹200,000 in equity, the ratio
= 0.5. A lower ratio is preferable, indicating financial stability.

are better.
