Rating Rationale

­Acuite has reaffirmed and withdrawn its long-term rating of 'ACUITE BB+' (read as ACUITE double B plus) on the Rs.23.90 Crore bank facilities of Atish Infradevelopers Private Limited. The rating is being withdrawn on account of request received from the company and NOC (No Objection Certificate) received from the banker.
Acuité has withdrawn the long-term rating on the Rs. 9.30 Cr. for the proposed long term facilities without assigning any rating of Atish Infradevelopers Private Limited as it is a proposed facility. The rating is being withdrawn on account of request received from the company.
The rating withdrawal is in accordance with Acuité's policy on withdrawal of rating as applicable to the respective facility / instrument.

Rationale for Rating
The rating reaffirmation considers steady scale of operations as reflected by the revenue of the company which stood at Rs.186.89 Cr. in FY25 against Rs. 163.03 Cr. in FY24. The growth in revenue was due to increase in the volume sales. The operating margin of the company stood at 4.06% in FY25 against 4.84% in FY24. The PAT margin stood at 0.80% in FY25 against 0.82% in FY24. The financial risk profile of the company is marked moderate reflected by improving net worth, comfortable gearing levels, and moderate debt protection metrics. However, these strengths are offset by working capital management of the company which is intensive in nature marked by high Gross Current Asset (GCA) days of 104 days in FY2025 as compared to 80 days in FY2024.

Key Rating Drivers

Strengths

­Experienced management
The company was incorporated in 2015. The directors of the company are Mr. Atiqur Rahman, Mr. Ayaz Ahmad and Mr. Aftab Ahmad , have been engaged in flour milling segment for more than five years. The promoters' long track record in the industry has an established relationship with customers and suppliers, leading to gradual improvement in revenues on y-o-y basis (Rs. 186.78 crore in FY25 as against Rs. 163.03 crore in FY24). Acuite believes, that extensive experience of management will help the entity to flourish in near to medium term.

Steady scale of operations 
The revenue from operations of the company stood at Rs. 186.89 Cr. in FY25 against Rs. 163.03 Cr. in FY24. The growth in revenue is due to increase in the volume sales. The operating margin of the company stood at 4.06% in FY25 against 4.84% in FY24. The decline in the operating margin of the company is due to the increase in the raw materials expenses, labour expenses and other operating expenses. The PAT margin stood at 0.80% in FY25 against 0.82% in FY24. 
The company’s Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) stood at 4.98% in FY2025, up from 5.71% in FY2024.


Weaknesses

Intensive working capital management
The working capital management of the company is intensive marked by GCA days of 104 days in FY2025 as against 80 days in FY2024, the increase in the GCA days are driven by increase in inventory days and debtor days. The inventory days stood at 55 days in FY2025 as against 46 days in FY2024. The debtor days stood at 37 days in FY2025 as against 30 days in FY2024. Creditor days stood nil day in FY25 and FY24 as the company purchases materials on cash and carry basis.

­Vulnerability to governmental rules and agro-climatic risk
The primary ingredient used to make sooji, maida, and aata is wheat. Agro-climatic conditions are the primary determinant of wheat production. Any unfavourable shift in the agro-climatic conditions could cause the supply chain for wheat to break. Furthermore, the government's strict regulation of wheat prices through the Minimum Support Price (MSP) could put pressure on AIPL's profitability. The Company also faces competition from both the organised and unorganised business in this industry which tends to put pressure on the margins of the Company.
