Detailed Rationale

CRISIL has reaffirmed its 'CRISIL B+/Stable/CRISIL A4' ratings on the bank facilities of Goyal Agencies Private Limited (GAPL).

The ratings continue to reflect the company's large working capital requirement and leveraged capital structure as reflected in high total outside liabilities to adjusted networth (TOLANW) ratio. These weaknesses are partially offset by the extensive experience of the promoters in the industrial equipment trading business and established relationship with its principal supplier; diversified product portfolio, and moderate scale of operations.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description
Weaknesses:
* Working capital-intensive operations: Gross current assets (GCAs) are expected to be around 234 days in fiscal 2020. Inventory is sizeable and is expected at around 137 days. The company extends credit of around 90 days to customers, and gets limited credit of around 30 days from suppliers, resulting in large working capital requirement.
 
* Highly leveraged capital structure: Despite expected networth of around Rs 11 crore in fiscal 2020, the capital structure is highly leveraged. This is reflected in expected TOLANW of 4.54 times on account of higher reliance on debt to fund the working capital requirement of the business. CRISIL believes that with GAPL continuing to rely on external debt to fund working capital requirement, the capital structure would remain highly leveraged.
 
Strengths:
* Extensive experience of the promoters: Presence of around five decades in the industrial machinery trading business has enabled the promoters to successfully set up sales offices in Punjab, Chandigarh, Uttrakhand, Jammu and Kashmir, and Haryana.
 
* Diversified product portfolio: GAPL is operating in various verticals such as robotics, machinery, chemicals, and spare parts along with highly diversified product portfolio that allows the company to cater to different industries. CRISIL believes this will benefit the company over the medium term.
 
* Moderate scale of operations: The revenue has increased to Rs 95.90 crore in fiscal 2019, from Rs 80.30 crore in fiscal 2018. However, the revenue is expected to decline to around Rs 80 crore in fiscal 2020 on account of the recent outbreak of corona virus impacting the prices and supply of chemicals, which the company imports from China. CRISIL expects GAPL's scale to remain moderate over the medium term.
Liquidity Stretched

Net cash accrual is expected at Rs 1.2-1.8 crore, over the medium term, against maturing debt obligation of Rs 0.8 crore. Bank limits were utilised at 85% on average over the 12 months through February 2020. The promoters have supported the company in the form of need based unsecured loan outstanding at Rs 5.58 crore as on March 31, 2019.

Outlook: Stable

CRISIL believes GAPL will continue to benefit from the extensive experience of its promoters and its established relationship with its principal supplier.

Rating Sensitivity factors
Upward factors
* Decline in GCAs to around 180 days resulting in less reliance on external borrowings to fund the working capital requirement
* Sustainable increase in revenue with operating margin maintained at around similar level

Downward factors
* Decrease in cash accruals to less than Rs 1 crore leading to poor liquidity situation
* Higher reliance on external borrowings leading to more leveraged capital structure
