Rating Rationale |
|
Acuite has assigned the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE BBB' (read as ACUITE triple B) on the Rs. 150.00 Cr. bank facilities of Arisinfra Solutions Limited (AISL). The outlook is ‘Stable’.
Rationale for Rating The rating assigned reflects the promoters’ extensive experience in the industry and company’s moderate financial risk profile, marked by an improvement in net worth on account of the fresh equity raised through the IPO, which was utilised to repay/prepay outstanding borrowings. The rating further considers the company’s steady operating performance, with revenues increasing to Rs. 724.11 Cr. in 9M FY26 from Rs. 546.52 Cr. in 9M FY25, and EBITDA rising to Rs. 72.19 Cr. from Rs. 46.94 Cr. over the same period. The rating also factors in the company’s diversified customer base, across real estate and infrastructure segments. However, the rating remains constrained by the limited operational track record of the company, working-capital-intensive nature of operations and the inherent cyclicality in the real estate sector. |

| Key Rating Drivers |
| Strengths |
| Experienced management and established relationships with diversified clientele
AISL was incorporated in 2021, The company is managed by Mr. Ronak Kishor Morbia, Mr. Bhavik Jayesh Khara and Mr. Srinivasan Gopalan, along with a team of experienced professionals. The directors bring around a decade of industry experience, enabling the company to cultivate long-standing relationships across its supplier and customer network. AISL services a diversified base of established real-estate developers and infrastructure contractors. Its clientele includes Capacit’e Infraprojects Limited, J Kumar Infraprojects Limited, Larsen & Toubro Limited, Tata Projects Limited, and Megha Engineering Private Limited, among others. On the supply side, the company collaborates with recognised partners such as Jainam Enterprise, Swarajya Stones LLP, Sun X Concrete India Private Limited, Bigbloc Building Elements Private Limited, and Fosroc Chemicals India Private Limited, ensuring reliable sourcing across key material categories. Between April 1, 2021 and December 31, 2025, AISL facilitated the supply of approximately 20.62 million MT of construction materials through 2,083 vendors, catering to 3,133 customers across 1,075 pin codes in major markets including Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Chennai. The breadth of its network and operational scale underline the company’s ability to service large, complex procurement needs across geographies. Acuite believes that AISL’s established presence, experienced management team, and sustained relationships with reputable clients and suppliers will continue to support its growth trajectory. Improving Scale of operations and profitability AISL derives its revenues from B2B material supply, contract manufacturing arrangements, and service-related activities, with contributions from aggregates, ready-mix concrete (RMC), steel, cement, walling solutions, and various other construction materials. In FY25, the on consolidated basis, reported revenues of Rs. 767.67 Cr., compared with Rs. 696.84 Cr. in FY24, supported by higher transaction volumes and increased scale across the B2B supply and contract-manufacturing segments. EBITDA improved to Rs. 48.10 Cr. in FY25 from Rs. 33.01 Cr. in FY24, with margins rising to 6.27% from 4.74%, driven by an improved product mix, a higher share of third-party manufactured materials, and better operating processes. PAT margin increased to 0.78% in FY25, compared with –2.48% in FY24, reflecting stronger operating performance and the absence of certain one-time non-cash expenses recorded in the previous year. During 9M FY26, the company on consolidated basis, recorded revenues of Rs. 724.11 Cr., compared with Rs. 546.52 Cr. in 9M FY25, supported by higher volumes, deeper penetration within existing customers, and increased revenue from service-related activities. EBITDA for 9M FY26 stood at Rs. 72.19 Cr. versus Rs. 46.94 Cr. in 9M FY25, with the EBITDA margin improving to 9.97% from 8.59%, aided by a favourable product mix and higher contribution from value-added services. The PAT margin strengthened to 5.32% in 9M FY26, compared with 1.19% in 9M FY25, reflecting improved operating efficiencies and lower finance costs. Acuité believes that AISL’s operating profile is expected to strengthen over the medium term, supported by sustained scale expansion, improved profitability metrics, and increasing contribution from value-added services Improving financial risk profile on the back of equity infusion and repayment of debt AISL’s financial risk profile remained moderate in FY25, supported by a healthy net worth position, moderate gearing, and average debt-protection metrics. The company reported a tangible net worth of Rs. 235.69 Cr. in FY25, compared with Rs. 142.13 Cr. in FY24, driven by the conversion of compulsory convertible preference shares (CCPS), a bonus issue, and a fresh equity infusion. Gearing (debt to equity) stood at 1.46 times in FY25, compared with 1.94 times as of March 31, 2024. Debt-protection indicators also improved, with the Interest Coverage Ratio (ICR) improving to 1.38 times in FY25 from 0.57 times in FY24, and the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) improving to 1.22 times from 0.55 times over the same period. The TOL/TNW ratio improved to 1.92 times in FY25 from 2.43 times in FY24, while Debt/EBITDA moderated to 6.02 times in FY25, compared with 15.04 times in FY24. In June 2025, AISL completed its Initial Public Offering (IPO) of 2,25,04,324 equity shares of face value Rs. 2 each, issued at Rs. 222 per share, aggregating Rs. 499.596 Cr. The equity shares were listed on the NSE and BSE on June 25, 2025. Of the total IPO proceeds, Rs. 203.19 Cr. were utilised for repayment/prepayment of borrowings, Rs. 176.97 Cr. for working-capital requirements, Rs. 47.87 Cr. for investment in subsidiary Buildmex Infra Private Limited, Rs. 39.27 Cr. for general corporate purposes, and Rs. 21.16 Cr. towards issue expenses. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had utilised Rs. 488.46 Cr., leaving an unutilised balance of Rs. 11.13 Cr. Consequently, the net worth increased to ~Rs. 718 Cr. in 9M FY26 with long term debt at Rs.0.00 Cr. as on Dec 2025. Acuité believes AISL’s financial risk profile is expected to strengthen further over the near to medium term, supported by higher net worth, reduced leverage following the IPO, and improved debt-protection metrics. |
| Weaknesses |
| Working capital intensive nature of operations
AISL’s operations remain working-capital intensive. Gross Current Asset (GCA) days increased to 267 days in FY25, from 196 days in FY24, largely due to higher vendor advances, which form an integral part of the Company’s asset-light procurement model. The debtor collection period is high although improved to 155 days in FY25, compared with 168 days in FY24, supported by better collections. Inventory days remained at 1 day in both years, reflecting the nature of the Company’s procurement-led business model. Creditor days increased to 38 days in FY25, up from 26 days in FY24, remaining broadly aligned with the standard credit cycle of 30–45 days and aided by improved supplier terms as operations scaled. The working capital cycle continued to show improvement, with debtor days reducing to 118 and creditor days extending to 44, thereby bringing down the net working capital cycle (NWC) to 74 days as on December 31, 2025. The average utilisation of fund-based working-capital limits remained moderate at 54.52% over the four-month period ending November 2025. Acuité expects the company’s working capital operations to remain intensive given the nature of its business and elongated debtor cycle. Exposure to Cyclicality in the Real Estate and Infrastructure Sector AISL remains exposed to the inherent cyclicality associated with the real estate and infrastructure sectors, given that a significant portion of its revenues is derived from developers and EPC contractors operating in these segments. Although the Company itself is not engaged in project development, fluctuations in construction activity—stemming from regulatory changes, funding constraints, execution delays, or shifts in demand—can influence order flows, material procurement volumes, and payment cycles. Periods of sectoral slowdown may also lead to elongated receivable cycles and variability in working-capital requirements. As a result, AISL’s business performance is indirectly linked to the broader investment and activity levels within these end-user industries. |
