The rating assignment factors the extensive experience of the promoters in the line of ceramic tiles and improvement in the operation and profitability. However, the rating is constrained by the stretched working capital cycle, liquidity and intense competition in the tile industry. Further, the ratings draw comfort from the financial support by promoters and relatives.
Going further, the Company's ability to manage the working capital backed by the improvement of sales and profitability will remain a key rating sensitivity.
KEY RATING DRIVERSCredit Strengths:
The promoters are having extensive experience in the ceramic industry vide their association with another entity in a similar business line. The Company also benefits from the established relationship of the promoters with the dealers. Promoters have financially supported the Company by infusing the funds as unsecured loans.
In the first year of operation, the level of Total Operating Income has remained low at Rs. 15.96 Crs in FY19 and improved to Rs. 34.85 Crs in FY20. However, in the current financial year, the company has achieved sales of Rs, 42.11 Crs up to 31st January 2021. The profitability of the Company remains vulnerable to fluctuations in raw material and fuel prices. The company has reported a net profit of Rs. 1.88 Crs in FY20 as compared to a net loss of Rs. 24.99 Crs in FY19. Going forward the Company’s ability to increase the operation and profitability will remain key rating sensitivity.
Credit Risks:
The company’s commercial operations were delayed for around one year and operated at 50-60% of the capacity utilization in FY19 which gradually improved in FY20. The financial risk profile is average as reflected by high gearing and stretched working capital position. Promoters and relatives have financially supported the company with the infusion of funds by the way of interest-free unsecured loans of Rs. 41.60 Crs in FY20. Considering the same, the analysed gearing is 2.51x and the analysed net worth is Rs. 40.76 Crs in FY20. Debt protection metrics are comfortable with DSCR at 1.47x and ISCR at 2.72x as of 31st March 2020.
The ceramic tile-manufacturing the industry is fragmented, which results in intense competition and exerts pressure on the profit margins. Also, the profit margins are susceptible to the adverse movements in raw material and gas prices. Further, as demand for ceramic products is correlated to the performance of end user industries such as construction and real estate, operations are exposed to the inherent cyclicity or any slowdown in these industries.
Positive: Substantial growth in revenue and profitability, efficient management of working capital cycle, promoters financial support as and when required.
Negative: Decline in operating income and profits thereby weakening of capital structure, debt coverage indicators or liquidity profile owing to stretch in the working capital cycle.
