A­cuité has assigned its long-term rating of 'ACUITE A-' (read as ACUITE A minus) and short-term rating of 'ACUITE A2+' (read as ACUITE A two Plus)  on the Rs.125.00 Cr. bank facilities of Triveni Engicons Private Limited. The outlook is ‘Stable’.

Rationale for rating
The rating reaffirmation factors improvement in scale of operations backed by healthy order book position and stable profitability margins. The rating factors experienced management and long operational track record with diversified portfolio. The rating also draws comfort from healthy financial risk profile and adequate liquidity position backed by steady cash accruals against maturing debt obligations. The rating is however constrained by moderate working capital cycle, risk of geographical concentration and inherent risks associated in tender-based nature of business in an intensely competitive construction industry.

Key Rating Drivers

Strengths
­Long track record of operations with diversified  portfolio & experienced promoters
The company is engaged into the business of civil construction for more than three decades and works for government and semi government companies like RITES Limited, WAPCOS Limited, Southeastern railways amongst few. The company has major projects in the eastern part of India i.e. Orissa, Jharkhand, Bihar, West Bengal. It undertakes projects pertaining to construction & maintenance of roads, bridges, railway parts and water irrigation projects which exhibits a diversified portfolio. Further, the directors of the company Mr. Govind Prasad Agrawal, Mr. Anand Dodrajka, Mr. Adarsh Dodrajka and Mr. Akshat Dodrajka, who manage the day-to-day operations of the company have more than four decades of experience in the field of civil construction.  Acuité believes that the extensive experience of the management, established long track record of operations of company coupled with healthy clientele relationships will continue to benefit the company going forward.

Augmentation in scale of operations 
TEPL witnessed improvement in the operating income and achieved revenue of Rs 491.41 Cr. in FY2025 as compared to Rs. 416.29 Cr. in FY2024 posting a growth of 18.04 percent on account of timely execution of work orders. Further it has an unexecuted order book of ~ Rs. 1,534.28 Cr. (3.12 times of operating income of FY2025) as on November 01,2025 which is to be completed in the coming 12 to 24 months thereby providing sound revenue visibility in near to medium term. Furthermore, the company has achieved revenue of Rs. 194.80 Cr. till Oct-25. The operating margin of the company marginally dipped in FY2025 and stood at 9.09 percent as compared to 10.39 percent in FY2024. However, the PAT margin improved to 8.46 percent in FY2025 on account of receipt of arbitration award income albeit increase in finance and depreciation cost. Acuité believes that, going forward, the sustainability of the healthy margins will remain a key monitorable.

Healthy financial risk profile
The financial risk profile of the company is healthy marked by healthy net worth, comfortable gearing and debt protection metrics. The tangible net worth of the company increased to Rs. 298.28 Cr. as on March 31,2025 as compared to Rs. 256.88 Cr. as on March 31,2024 mainly on account of accretion to reserves. The gearing stood comfortable at 0.37 times as on March 31,2025 (0.36 times as on March 31,2024) despite increase in debt (long term as well as short term) for purchase of equipment and meeting working capital requirement for execution of order. Furthermore, the debt protection metrics of the company is marked comfortable with interest coverage ratio at 7.15 times and debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) at 2.15 times as on March 31, 2025. Acuité believes that going forward the financial risk profile will remain healthy over the medium term backed by steady net cash accruals.

Weaknesses
­Moderately intensive working capital operations
The working capital operations of the company is moderately intensive marked by gross current assets (GCA) of 153 days as on March 31,2025 as compared to 133 days as on March 31,2024 owing to moderate inventory holding and other current assets (earnest money deposit). The inventory holding period increased to 72 days as on March 31,2025 as compared to 55 days as on March 31, 2024. However, the debtor’s holding period stood comfortable at 33 days as on March 31,2025.  
Acuité believes that the working capital operations of the company will remain at similar levels over the medium term based on the nature of business.

Inherent risks in tender-based businesses coupled with geographical concentration risk and intense competition in the industry
Intense competition from several players, and exposure to risks arising from dependence on tenders. Growth in revenue and profitability depends on the company's ability to bid successfully and executes order within stipulated time frame. Further, though company is executing orders in West Bengal, Chhattisgarh, Bihar and Odisha, a major portion of its order book is concentrated mostly in Jharkhand, thereby exposing TEPL to geographical concentration risk.
Rating Sensitivities
 
  • Consistent improvement in scale of operation while sustaining profitability margin
  • Timely execution of orders and growth in order book
  • Any significant increase in debt levels or stretch in working capital management thereby impacting the financial and liquidity profile
 
Liquidity Position
Adequate
The liquidity position is adequate marked by net cash accruals of Rs.59.07 Cr. as on March 31, 2025 as against long term debt repayment of Rs. 21.11 Cr. over the same period. Further the net cash accruals are expected to remain in the range of Rs 37.00 Cr. to 41.00 Cr. as against long term debt repayment of Rs 20.00 Cr. to Rs.29.00 Cr. in near to medium terms. The cash and bank balances stood at Rs. 19.88 Cr. as on March 31, 2025. The current ratio stood healthy at 1.59 times as on March 31, 2025. The average fund-based bank limit utilization stood at 54 percent & non-fund-based bank limit utilization stood at 88 percent over the last twelve months ended, October 2025.
Acuité believes that going forward the liquidity position of the company will remain adequate in the near to medium term marked by improving net cash accruals.
