Rating Rationale

­Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE A-’ (read as ACUITE A minus) on the Rs. 70.00 Cr. bank facilities (including proposed facilities) of Arman Financial Services Limited (AFSL). The outlook is 'Stable'.

Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE A-’ (read as ACUITE A minus) on the Rs. 80.00 Cr. Non-Convertible Debentures (including proposed facilities) of Arman Financial Services Limited (AFSL). The outlook is 'Stable'.

Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating of ‘PP-MLD ACUITE A-’ (read as Principal Protected Market Linked Debentures ACUITE A minus) on the Rs. 45.00 Cr. Principal Protected Market Linked Debentures of Arman Financial Services Limited (AFSL). The outlook is 'Stable'.

Rationale for the rating

The rating continues to factor in the group’s established track record of operations in three product segments i.e Micro Finance, Micro Small and Medium Enterprise (MSME) and two-wheeler finance supported by experienced management team. The ratings further takes into account the group’s healthy resource raising ability and healthy liquidity buffers. The group has well diversified funding profile with a lender base of over 30 banks and financial institutions. The rating further factors in growth in the scale of operations with rise in AUM from Rs. 1,233 Cr. as on March 31, 2022 to Rs. 1,943 Cr. as on March 31, 2023. The AUM grew to Rs. 2,437 Cr. as on Dec-23. Further, with a view to achieve deeper penetration, the group has expanded in the past four years into newer regions which has resulted in decline in concentration in the state of Gujarat from 57.20 percent in FY18 to 27.58 percent in FY23. (26.66 percent as on Sep-23). Additionally, the group's profitability improved in FY23 as marked by RoAA (on-balance sheet assets) of 5.78 percent (P.Y: 2.95 percent). The group reported a consolidated PAT of Rs. 93.81 Cr. in FY2023 (Rs. 31.72 Cr. in FY2022; Rs. 10.62 Cr. in FY2021). For 9MFY24, the profits stood at Rs.122.76 Cr. The improvement in earnings profile is also backed by increase in overall yield on advances through MSME financing as well as removal of interest rate cap on microfinancing. The rating is however constrained by a moderate albeit improving capital base; commensurate with the size and unsecured nature of the portfolio. Further, the gearing at group level stood moderate at 4.39 times as of March 31, 2023, which although improved slightly since FY2022 backed by the recent capital raise of Rs. 115 Cr. in H1FY23. The group has raised equity capital to the tune of Rs. 230 Cr. in Q3FY24 through QIP which is expected to aid the capital buffers. Going forward, the ability of the group to profitably scale up its operations while mitigating asset quality risk would be a key rating monitorable.

Analytical Approach

Extent of Consolidation
•Full Consolidation
Rationale for Consolidation or Parent / Group / Govt. Support
­Acuité has consolidated the business and financial risk profiles of AFSL and NFL (Hereinafter referred to as ‘Arman Group’) for arriving at the rating. The consolidation is in view of common promoters and management, integrated businesses, shared brand name, and significant operational and financial linkages between these entities.
Key Rating Drivers

Strength
­­Established track record of operations with experienced promoters and management
AFSL has been engaged in the financing business since 1992 and has demonstrated a long track record of operations through various business cycles. Arman commenced its operations with asset backed finance lending in the state of Gujarat and has built a strong experience of 29 years in the industry. Following the RBI directive for creating a separate category of NBFC for lending to micro finance sector, the company was the first in India to obtain "NBFCMFI" license for its wholly owned subsidiary - Namra Finance Ltd (Namra) on February 14, 2013. Accordingly, all the assets related to micro finance were transferred to Namra Finance Limited (NFL). In 2017, company began its MSME loan product segment. The group has geographical presence in the states of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, Haryana and Bihar with a network of 336 branches spread across 120 districts as on March 31, 2023. The company is promoted by­ Mr. Jayendra Patel, Vice Chairman and Managing Director, who has 25 years of senior managerial and board level experience in the finance sector. Mr. Patel is the founder member of Gujarat Finance Companies Association. He is supported by Mr. Aalok Patel, Joint Managing Director, who is also on the Board of the company and has more than 15 years of experience in the financial sector. Further, Mr. Alok Prasad is the present Chairman on the Board of AFSL, who is also on the Board of the company and is having 35 years of experience in regulatory, banking and financial services. He has been associated with MFIN as Founder Chief Executive Officer. The Board is well represented by nine directors with adequate and relevant experience in the corporate and finance domains.
Acuité believes that the established presence of the promoters and management coupled with effective guidance from the directors on the board, will support the business risk profile of the company in the near to medium term.

Increased scale of operations
The group’s operations have seen an improvement with rise in AUM from Rs. 1,233 Cr. as on March 31, 2022 to Rs. 1,943 Cr. as on March 31, 2023. The AUM grew to Rs. 2,437 Cr. as on Dec-23.  Further, with a view to achieving deeper penetration, the group has in the past 4 years, expanded into newer regions. As such, the company’s branch size increased from 80 branches as on March 2017 to 336 branches as on March 31, 2023 which has gradually resulted in reduced concentration of AUM in the state of Gujarat (27.58 percent as on March 31, 2023). The company added 44 new branches during FY2023. The company has three major segments- JLG (Micro-Finance through Namra Finance Limited), MSME and two wheeler loan, whereby MFI-JLG contributes 81.70 percent of the Total AUM as on March 31, 2023 followed by MSME (13.1 percent of the total AUM) and Two wheeler loans (3.13 percent of the total AUM).
Acuité believes that company has demonstrated the resilience to grow across various business cycles coupled with diversification in three segments.

Improving profitability; strong resource raising ability
The group's profitability improved in FY23 as marked by RoAA (on-balance sheet assets) of 5.78 percent (P.Y: 2.95 percent). The group reported a consolidated PAT of Rs. 93.81 Cr. in FY2023 (Rs. 31.72 Cr. in FY2022; Rs. 10.62 Cr. in FY2021). For 9MFY24, the profits stood at Rs. 122.76 Cr.  The improvement in earnings profile is also backed by increase in overall yield on advances through MSME financing as well as removal of interest rate cap on microfinancing. Acuité believes that company's ability to sustain the growth momentum and curb the credit costs will be a key monitorable. The group has established relationships with over 30 lenders; public and private sector bank and financial institutions. The debt profile of the group remains diverse with borrowings through Banks & SFBs (33 percent), DFIs (2 percent), NBFC/FIs (26 percent), borrowings through securitization (17 percent), ECB (9 percent) and debt securities (13 percent) as on March 31, 2023. Going forward, Acuité expects the group to continue to benefit from a diversified funding mix.

Weakness
­Moderate asset quality; albeit improving
The outbreak of COVID and the intermittent lockdowns significantly impacted the credit profile of most of the borrowers thereby impacting asset quality during FY21. Given the challenges and stress experienced by vehicle and micro finance sector, company reported GNPA (on-book; consolidated) at 4.44 percent as on March 31, 2022 as against 4.70 percent as on March 31, 2021 (1.13 percent as on March 31, 2020). However, on account of improved collections and write-offs in FY23, the GNPA as on March 31, 2023 stood at 2.79 percent; further improved to 2.38 percent as on Dec-23 on account of increase in portfolio. The on-time portfolio (AUM basis) as on March 31, 2023 stood at 95.49 percent vis-à-vis 89.74 percent as on March 31, 2022 (94.15 percent as on December 31, 2023). The provisioning on GNPA remained healthy at 90.91 percent as on September 30, 2023.

Modest capital structure
The group’s net worth stood at Rs. 212.68 Cr. as on March 31, 2022 (Rs. 186.76 Cr. as on March 31, 2021). Due to capital raise of Rs. 115 Cr. in Q2FY23 and internal accruals, the net worth grew to Rs. 365.69 Cr. as on March 31, 2023. (Rs. 721.75 Cr. as on December 31, 2023). The group has raised equity to the tune of Rs. 230 Cr. in Q3FY24 through QIP which is expected to aid the capital buffers. AFSL has adequate capitalization level with Capital Adequacy Ratio of 65.76 percent (standalone) as on December  31, 2023 (35.15 percent as on March 31, 2023). The group's consolidated gearing levels stood moderate at 2.5 times as on December 31, 2023. (4.39 times as on March 31, 2023).
ESG Factors Relevant for Rating
­Arman Financial Services Limited (AFSL) belongs to the NBFC sector which complements bank lending in India. Some of the material governance issues for the financial services sector are policies and practices with regard to business ethics, board diversity and independence, compensation structure for board and KMPs, role of the audit committee and shareholders’ rights. On the social aspect, some of the critical issues for the sector are the contributions to financial inclusion and community development, responsible financing including environmentally friendly projects and policies around data privacy. The industry, by nature has a low exposure to environmental risks. AFSL focuses towards overcoming the financial inclusion gap through vehicle finance and microfinance in semi-rural and rural areas. The entity has corporate governance policies on whistle-blower programme and vigil mechanism. The NBFC outlines the policies related to diversity, sexual harassment, and ethical business practices in its code of conduct and also has a high transparency in terms of disclosures related to board and management compensation. AFSL’s CSR policy focuses on development of marginalized communities and initiatives such as Hygiene Awareness programmes among rural women in Gujarat. As part of the ‘green initiative’, the company has switched to electronic mode to send annual reports or Notice of AGM to the shareholders and depository participants.
 
Rating Sensitivity
­
  • Timely infusion of capital
  • Movement in leverage
  • Movement in asset quality and collection efficiency
  • Movement in capitalization and liquidity buffers
  • Movement in profitability metrics
 
Liquidity Position
Adequate
­AFSL has adequately matched asset liability profile as on December 31, 2023 with a cumulative surplus in all maturity buckets. The group has adequate liquidity buffers by way of sufficient cash and cash equivalents of Rs. ~521 Cr. as on September 30, 2023.
 
Outlook- Stable
­­Acuité believes that the group will maintain a ‘Stable’ outlook over the near to medium term owing to its established presence in the key operating segment (i.e. MSME, MFI) and adequate capitalization buffers. The outlook may be revised to ‘Positive’ in case of significant and sustainable growth in AUM while maintaining asset quality, gearing levels and improved profitability. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to ‘Negative’ in case of significantly higher than expected asset quality pressures or profitability margins.

Note on Complexity Levels of the Rated Instrument
­In order to inform the investors about complexity of instruments, Acuité has categorized such instruments in three levels: Simple, Complex and Highly Complex. Acuite’s categorisation of the instruments across the three categories is based on factors like variability of the returns to the investors, uncertainty in cash flow patterns, number of counterparties and general understanding of the instrument by the market. It has to be understood that complexity is different from credit risk and even an instrument categorized as 'Simple' can carry high levels of risk. For more details, please refer Rating Criteria “Complexity Level Of Financial Instruments” on www.acuite.in.
