Key Rating Drivers

Strengths
­Established track record of operations with experienced management
RPIL is based out of Uttar Pradesh and was incorporated in the year 1998 reflecting an established track record of operations for more than two decades. The company is promoted by Mr. Arvind Goenka who have been engaged in the PVC industry for more than three decades. The operations of the company are managed by the promoters as well as well experienced senior management team who are ably supported by a strong line of mid-level managers. The extensive experience of the promoters has helped the company to established long and healthy relationships with its customers and suppliers over the years. The key customers of the company include names such as The Kothari Multitrade, Poddar Interior, Premier Polyfilm Limited amongst others with no major concentration in revenues. The company currently has one manufacturing facility located in Sikandrabad, India with a current installed capacity of producing 50,000 MT per annum. Acuité believes that the company will sustain its existing business profile over the medium term on the back of an established track record of operations with an experienced management.



Healthy financial risk profile
Company has healthy financial risk profile marked by tangible net worth of Rs.126.49 crore as on 31 March, 2022 as against Rs.98.59 crore as on 31 March, 2021. The improvement in net worth is attributable to higher accretion to reserves on account of consistent growth in profitability. Total debt of Rs. 27.40 Cr in FY 2022 consists of Rs. 6.48 Cr of term loan, Rs. 18.07 Cr of working capital borrowings and Rs. 2.85 Cr of CPLTD. Debt to Equity (Gearing) moderated to 0.22 times in FY 2022 as against 0.11 times in FY 2021 due to increase in debt levels. Interest coverage ratio improved and remained strong at 22.68 times in FY 2022 as against 18.12 times in FY 2021 while DSCR improved to 10.40 times from 6.45 times in FY 2021. NCA/TD moderated but remained strong at 1.33 times in FY 2022 as against 2.52 times in FY 2021.

Efficient working capital management
The working capital of the company are managed efficiently marked by low GCA days of 89 days for FY 2022 compared to 84 days for FY 2021. Inventory days increased from 44 days in FY 2021 to 54 days in FY 2022. Debtors days stood at 22 days in FY 2022 as against 23 days in FY 2021. Creditor days increased to 39 days in FY 2022 as against 36 days in FY 2021. Average bank limit utilization remained moderate at 67.83% for the 10 months’ period between February 2022 to November 2022.
Weaknesses
­Susceptibility of margins to raw material price fluctuation and foreign exchange fluctuation risk
As RPIL is engaged into manufacturing of PVC products, the major raw material required to manufacture such products is PVC resin which is a derivative of crude oil and the prices of crude oil are directly affected by various macroeconomic factors. Similarly, the prices of PVC resins are also volatile in nature and such fluctuations in the major raw material price may impact the operating profit margin of the company.
Rating Sensitivities
  • ­Significant improvement in scale of operations while maintaining profitability margins.
  • Stretch in the working capital cycle leading to an increase in reliance on working capital borrowings and stretched liquidity position.
 
Material covenants
­None.
 
Liquidity Position
Strong
­Company has strong liquidity position marked by healthy net cash accruals against maturing debt obligations. The company generated cash accruals of Rs.36.34 crore in FY 2022 compared against maturing debt obligations of Rs.1.51 crore over the same period. Going forward company is expected to generate NCA of Rs. 39.58 Cr and Rs. 42.41 Cr in FY 2023 and 2024 respectively against maturing debt obligation of Rs. 2.85 Cr in each year’s respectively. Company in FY 2022 has unencumbered term deposits of Rs. 38.45 Cr and mutual fund investments of Rs. 17.58 Cr. Company had unencumbered cash and bank position of Rs. 6.98 Cr in FY 2022.
 
Outlook: Stable
­Acuite believes that RPIL will maintain a 'stable' outlook in the medium term and will continue to benefit over the medium term due to its experience management, established market position and healthy financial risk. The outlook may be revised to 'Positive', if the company demonstrates substantial and sustained growth in its revenues and/or operating margins from the current levels while maintaining its capital structure through equity infusion. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative', if company’s generates lower-than anticipated cash accruals thereby impacting its financial risk profile, particularly its liquidity.
