Rating Rationale

­­­Acuite has assigned the long-term rating of ‘ACUITE BBB-’ (read as ACUITE triple B minus) and the short-term rating of ‘ACUITE A3’ (read as ACUITE A three) on Rs.50.00 crore of bank facilities of Ultech Energies Private Limited. The outlook is ‘Stable’. Rationale for the rating The assigned rating reflects the group’s established track record of operations spanning over a decade in the same line of industry. Further, group witnessed an improvement in its scale of operations marked by an operating income of Rs. 225.61 Cr. in FY2025 as against Rs. 23.62 Cr. in FY2024. The current order book of Rs. 536.42 Cr. approximately as on 30th September 2025 provides revenue visibility over the medium term. The ratings also factor in group’s healthy financial risk profile marked by its moderate net worth, low gearing ratio and healthy debt protection ratios. However, the ratings are constrained by intensive working capital operations.

Key Rating Drivers

Strengths

Experience management The group started its operations in the year 2015 and has a long track record of operations. the group benefits from the long-term experience of the promoters in this industry including key promoters who are Mr. Upendra Panchi, Mr. Aditya Panchi and Mr. Abhijeet Kaldate and have more than two decades of experience in this field and oversee the overall operations of the group. Acuite believes that the long track record of business has enabled the development of an established customer and supplier network. Improvement in scale of operations The revenue from operations of the group shows a significant growth in FY25 which stood at Rs. 225.61 Cr. against Rs. 23.62 Cr. in FY24. This growth is primarily attributed to a change in business strategy. Until FY24, the group focused solely on manufacturing solar pumps and supplying them to various EPC contractors, distributors, and dealers, mainly in the Maharashtra Region. In FY25, the promoters infused capital, allowing the group to qualify and successfully bid for Maharashtra Government tenders related to the installation of solar projects for irrigation purposes. Additionally, operating margin of the group stood at 8.94% in FY25 against 5.19% in FY24 mainly due to increase in the scale of operations and the PAT margin of the group stood at 7.70% in FY25 against 3.21% in FY24. Group has unexecuted order book position to the tune of Rs. 536.42 Crore approximately as on 30th September 2025. The group has achieved the revenue of Rs. 141.72 Cr. till Oct 2025. Acuite believes the group is expected to showcase an increase in the scale of operations along with stable margins in near to medium term. Healthy Financial Risk Profile The financial risk profile of the group is healthy marked by net-worth of Rs. 51.15 Crore as on 31st March 2025 against Rs. 1.90 Crore as on 31st March 2024, increase in net worth is on account of profit accretion, infusion of funds by the promoter, and subordination of USL brought in by promoters to bank loan. Further, the total debt of the group stood at Rs. 16.33 Crore as on 31st March 2025 against Rs. 21.57 Crore as on 31st March 2024. The capital structure of the group is comfortable marked by gearing ratio which stood at 0.32 times as on 31st March 2025 against 11.34 times as on 31st March 2024. Further, the coverage indicators of the group improved reflected by interest coverage ratio and debt service coverage ratio of the group which stood at 12.14 times and 11.32 times respectively as on 31st March 2025 against 2.60 times and 2.49 times respectively as on 31st March 2024. The group is currently planning capex of Rs. ~30 Cr. to establish a solar module manufacturing facility, which will be funded through a mix of external debt and internal accruals. Acuite believes that financial risk profile of the group is expected to remain healthy in near to medium term despite the presence of debt-funded capex.

Weaknesses

Intensive Working Capital operations The working capital operations of the group is intensive marked by GCA days which stood at 207 days as on 31st March 2025 improved against 374 days as on 31st March 2024. The improvement in the GCA days is mainly due to high debtor days of the group which stood at 148 days in FY25 against 267 days in FY24 and inventory days of the group stood at 9 days in FY25 against 45 days in FY24. However, creditor days of the group stood at 139 days in FY25 against 55 days in FY24. Acuité believes that the working capital operations of the group will remain at same level due to the nature of the business. Customer Concentration Risk There is a customer concentration risk as more than 72.56% of net revenues are booked from one particular entity in FY 25. Any change in the agreement between counterparties may impact the revenue and profitability profile of the group. Acuite believes that the customer concentration risk will continue to loom over the business risk profile of the group over the medium term.

Liquidity Position

Adequate

The liquidity profile of the group is adequate. The net cash accruals of group stood at Rs. 17.46 Cr. in FY 25 against the minimal debt obligation for the same period. The group has cash & bank position of Rs. 20.03 Cr. and current ratio stood at 1.50 times for FY25. The average fund based bank limit utilization is at 30.72% for the 5 months’ period ending September 2025. Acuité believes that the liquidity position of the group will remain adequate on account of steady net cash accruals against matured debt obligations albeit debt funded capex plans over the medium term.

Outlook: Stable
