Detailed Rationale

CRISIL Ratings has reaffirmed its CRISIL B-/Stable/CRISIL A4 ratings on the bank facilities of Jiwanram Sheoduttrai Industries Ltd (JSIL).

 

The ratings continue to reflect the stretched working capital cycle of the company and its constrained financial risk profile because of weak debt protection metrics. These weaknesses are partially offset by the promoters extensive experience in the leather industry.

Analytical Approach

Unsecured loans of Rs 26.00 crore as of March 2024 have been considered as quasi-equity as these loans have remained in the business for the long term and are subordinated to bank debt.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description

Weaknesses:

  • Stretched working capital cycle: Gross current assets (GCA) were around 802 days as on March 31, 2024, on account of delayed realisation of bills and large inventory. Reduction in working capital intensity will remain the key rating driver over the medium term.

 

  • Constrained financial risk profile because of weak debt protection metrics: Net cash accrual to total debt and interest coverage ratios were around 0.11 time and 2.48 times, respectively, during fiscal 2024.

 

Strength:

  • Established business risk profile supported by promoters experience: Industry presence of around two decades has enabled the promoters to develop a strong understanding of market dynamics and establish healthy relationships with suppliers and customers.

Liquidity: Poor

Bank limit utilisation was 95.15% for the 12 months through March 2024. Expected annual cash accrual of Rs 3-4 crore will be sufficient to meet yearly term debt obligation of Rs 0.72 crore over the medium term.

Outlook: Stable

The extensive experience of the promoters will support business risk profile.

Rating Sensitivity Factors

Upward factors:

  • Increase in revenue by 15% and sustenance of profitability above 10% leading to sufficient accrual over the medium term
  • Improvement in liquidity and decline in bank limit utilisation
  • Improvement in GCAs

 

Downward factors:

  • Decline in revenue by 20% and drop in profitability leading to lower cash accrual
  • Further stretch in working capital cycle impacting liquidity
