RATING ACTION / OUTLOOK

Brickwork Ratings (BWR) has previously reaffirmed the long-short term ratings at BWR BBB with change in outlook to Positive and BWR A3+ for the bank loans facilities of Rs.187.53Crs of T.C. Spinners Pvt Ltd (TCPL or the company) on 16 March, 2022. 

The ratings were due for review in March, 2023. BWR took up with the issuer vide emails dated 22 March 2023, 28 March 2023, 25 April 2023 and through multiple telephone calls for information and documents as required for review of ratings. Later the company has taken up with BWR for withdrawal of its ratings, along with No Objection Certificates (NOCs) from its lender for withdrawal of existing ratings with BWR.

Accordingly, based on best available information at the time of withdrawal, BWR has downgraded the long-short term ratings to BWR BBB- with change in outlook to ''Stable'' and BWR A3 for the bank loan facilities aggregating Rs.183.45Crs of TCPL while simultaneously withdrawal of its ratings with immediate effect. The withdrawal of the rating is as per the company’s request for withdrawal and pursuant to receiving No Objection Certificates (NOC) from its lender Central Bank of India. The withdrawal of ratings is in line with BWR's policy on the withdrawal of its ratings on bank loan facilities, and the relevant documents are held on record. 

The downgrade in rating factors in declining performance of the company in FY23 (provisional), non-achievability of management/BWR projections for FY23 along with working capital intensive nature of business marked by elongated operating cycle and high utilization of its FB limits during the year. The 'Stable’ outlook indicates a low likelihood of rating change over the medium term as BWR believes T.C. Spinners Pvt Ltd’s business and financial risk profile will be maintained over the medium term.

As per the information available, the company has reported y-o-y decline of 17.50% in its Total Operating Income (TOI) to Rs.333.15Crs as against Rs.403.84Crs in FY22. The company has reported y-on-y decline of 75.99% in its bottom line as Profit After Tax (PAT) stood at Rs.1.81Crs as against Rs.7.54Crs respectively in FY22. The OPM and NPM stood at 6.69% and 0.54% respectively in FY23 (provisional) as against 8.06% and 1.87% respectively in FY22.
