Acuité has reaffirmed the long-term rating at ‘ACUITE A’ (read as ACUITE A) and the short term rating at 'ACUITE A1' (read as ACUITE A one) on the Rs.58.60 Cr. bank facilities of RMG Polyvinyl India Limited (RPIL). The outlook is ‘Stable’.
Acuité has assigned the long-term rating at ‘ACUITE A’ (read as ACUITE A) on the Rs.38.00 Cr. bank facilities of RMG Polyvinyl India Limited (RPIL). The outlook is ‘Stable’. Rationale for reaffirmation Reaffirmation of rating takes into account the established track record of operations, healthy financial risk profile and comfortable working capital management. Company has seen improvement in scale of operations wherein operating income stood at Rs. 397.57 Cr in FY 2023 (Audited) registering growth of 12.65% over FY 2022 (Audited) wherein operating income stood at Rs. 352.94 Cr. However, company has witnessed decline in profitability due increase in raw material prices which has led to slight moderation in debt protection metrics. The company's profitability is linked to the volatility in raw material prices as can be seen from the past trends. The company has strong competition from other players in the industry. The company is going for a CAPEX of Rs. 40 Cr. in FY24 and the timely implementation and stabilization of the production remains a key monitorable. |

Weaknesses |
Susceptibility of margins to raw material price fluctuation
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 in future. High volatility in crude prices in past two fiscal was on account of pandemic and later due to Russia Ukraine war hence the margins saw sharp dip. Due to the aforesaid factor the company’s profitability saw dip in FY 2023. EBITDA margin declined from 12.91% in FY 2022 to 8.45% in FY 2023. The moderation is a result of increase in raw material cost and decrease in realization. PAT margin declined from 8.62% in FY 2022 to 5.60% in FY 2023. Competition from other organized and unorganied players The company is facing strong competition from organized players as well as the unorganized players in the industry. Further, the company has competition from imported products traded in the country. |
