Healthy Growth in Revenue and slight moderation in profitability margins TIMPL generates up to 80 percent of its revenue from sale of vehicles and 11 percent revenue through workshops services. TIMPL’s operating income increased from Rs. 209.92 Cr. in FY2022 to Rs. 271.68 Cr. in FY2023. Further operating profits decreased from Rs. 8.84 Cr. in FY2022 to Rs. 8.44 Cr. in FY2023 with dip in operating margins from 4.21 percent in FY2022 to 3.11 percent in FY2023. The dip in profitability is on account of higher employee cost and higher cost of vehicles on account of discounts given. ROCE declined from 25.42 percent in FY2022 to 16.58 percent in FY2023. Increase in revenue is attributable to improvement in car sales is on account of improved microchip supply and steady growth in income levels coupled with introduction of new models by Maruti Suzuki. Comfortable Working Capital Management The working capital operations of TIMPL is marked comfortable with Gross current asset (GCA) days of 59 days in FY 2023 as against 41 days in FY 2022 increase in GCA days is due to increased inventory days from 18 days in FY2022 to 24 days in FY2023.

Weaknesses |
Moderation in Financial risk profile
TIMPL’s financial risk profile has moderated marked by moderate capital structure and moderate coverage indicators. Company’s net worth stood Rs. 19.07 Cr. as on March 31, 2023 as against Rs. 15.37 Cr. as on 31 March, 2023. Total debt increased to Rs. 36.25 Cr. as on 31st March 2023 from Rs. 16.13 Cr. as on March 31st 2022. The total debt increased on account of higher working capital requirement and CAPEX done in FY23. The total debt consists of Rs. 28.27 Cr. short term debt, Rs. 5.79 Cr. of long term debt and Rs. 2.18 Cr. of CPLTD. Interest coverage ratio and DSCR declined and stood at 3.97 times and 2.96 times simultaneously, as on March 31st, 2023 as compared to 5.47 times and 4.52 times as on March 31st 2022. The net cash accrual (NCA) to total debt(TD) is 0.15 times as on March 31st 2023 and 0.37 times as on March 31st 2022. The Total outside liabilities to Tangible net worth stood at 2.46 times for FY2023 as against 1.52 times in FY2022. Exposure to intense industry competition The passenger car industry in India is highly competitive. Being an authorized dealer for Maruti Suzuki India Ltd (MSIL), the company has to compete with dealers of other car brands such as Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, Tata Motors Ltd . Auto manufacturers also encourage more dealerships (thereby increasing competition among dealers) to improve market penetration and sales. Thus, the business risk profile may continue to be constrained by limited bargaining power with principals, and exposure to intense competition. |

|
Outlook: Stable |
Acuité believes that TIMPL will maintain a ‘Stable’ outlook and continue to benefit over the medium term owing to its promoter’s extensive industry experience, Strong product profile, and strong dealership network. The outlook may be revised to 'Positive' in case of sustained improvement in the scale of operations and profitability while maintaining comfortable financial risk profile and liquidity position. Conversely, the outlook may be revised to 'Negative' in case of a steep decline in revenue and profitability or if the financial risk profile weakens, because of stretch in the working capital cycle or higher than expected debt-funded capital expenditure.
