Rating Rationale

­Acuité has downgraded and withdrawn its long-term rating of ACUITE BB+’ (read as ACUITE double B plus) from ACUITE BBB-’ (read as ACUITE Triple B minus) on the Rs. 9.75 crore bank facilities of Jolly Spinners Private Limited (JSPL). The rating withdrawal is in accordance with Acuité's policy on withdrawal of rating as applicable to the respective facility / instrument. The rating is being withdrawn on account of request received from the company and NOC received from the banker.

Rationale for Downgrade
The rating downgrade takes into account the decline in operating revenue and volatility in profitability margins of the group in FY2024(prov.) and FY2023. The revenue of the group stood at Rs.469.21 Cr. In FY2024 (Prov), Rs.343.31 Cr. in FY2023 as against Rs.512.89 Cr. In FY2022. The net loss of the company stood at Rs. 2.34 Cr. in FY2024 (Prov), and Rs. 4.70 Cr. in FY2023 as against net profit of Rs.8.30 Cr. in  FY2022. The rating, however, is supported by a moderate financial risk profile, adequate liquidity and moderate utilisation of bank limits.

Key Rating Drivers

Strengths
Established track record of operations and experienced management
­Jolly group(JG) consists of three companies namely Jolly Enterprises, Jolly Spinning Mills Private Limited and Jolly Spinners Private Limited. The group is engaged in ginning, pressing and spinning of cotton yarn. The group is also engaged in trading of cotton yarn and cotton bales.

Jolly group procures raw material from local markets and exports yarn to Europe, China and Bangladesh. In terms of revenue mix JG derives 80 percent of its revenue through exports and 20 percent through sale in domestic markets. Further, JG group has achieved the operating revenue of Rs. 469.21 Cr. in FY2024(Prov.) against Rs. 343.31 Cr. in FY2023. 
Acuite belives that the group will continue to benefit from established presence in textile industry and extensive experience of promotors.

Comfortable working capital management
JG's working capital operations are comfortable marked by gross current assets (GCA) days of 48 days in FY2024(Prov.) as compared to 75 days in FY2023. The GCA days are mainly dominated by inventory holding period of 8 days in FY2024(Prov.) as against 25 days in FY2023. The collection period was at 4 days in FY2024(Prov.) as against 16 days in FY2023. Further, the company’s average bank limit utilisation stood at ~53.25 percent for the last 06 months ended May 2024.
Acuite’ believes that working capital operations of the company may continue to remain comfortable considering the nature of business.

 

Weaknesses
Decline in financial risk profile
The financial risk profile is moderate marked by declining net worth, moderate gearing and moderate debt protection metrics. The net worth of the company declined and stood at Rs. 41.62 Cr. as on 31 March, 2024(Prov.) as against Rs. 42.27 Cr. as on 31 March, 2023 and Rs. 50.42 Cr. as on 31 March, 2022.  The company follows a moderate financial policy reflected through its gearing (debt-equity) which stood at 1.08 times as on 31 March, 2024(Prov.) as against 1.00 times as on 31 March, 2023. The coverage indicators , marked by interest coverage ratio (ICR) stood at 1.79 times in FY2024(Prov.) as against 0.71 times in FY2023. The DSCR stood at 1.56 times in FY2024(Prov.) against 0.57 times in FY2023. Although there is an improvement in the coverage indicators in FY24 it is still much lower than the FY22 levels which stood at 5.53 & 1.45 times of ICR and DSCR respectively. The total outside liabilities to tangible net worth (TOL/TNW) stood at 1.37 times as on 31 March 2024(Prov.) as against 1.53 times as on 31 March, 2023. Acuité, believes that the financial risk profile may continue to remain moderate despite routine capex supported by stable operating margins.


­Volatility in raw material prices and government regulations
Cotton prices are highly regulated by the government through MSP (Minimum Support Price). However, the purchase and selling prices depend on the prevailing demand-supply situation restricting bargaining power with suppliers and customers. Any adverse movement of cotton prices further impacts profitability.

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.
