Comments :

Subject is an established company having moderate track record.

 

Management has failed to file the latest financial of 2013 with the government department.

 

Mr. Naresh Khanna, Assistant General Manager at Oriental Bank of Commerce, Greater Kailash Branch confirmed that the company’s account is under Non Performing Asset (NPA) and has not transferred any assets from long period of time.

 

Further, he also mentioned that it might be true that the company will opt for liquidation.

 

As per available, the company possesses a weakening financial profile marked by a huge loss witnessed during 2012.

 

Furthermore, even though the promoters have infused sizeable funds, there seems to be a huge debt reported as a part of the capital structure.

 

The ratings also factor in stretched liquidity position resulting from high dependence on bank borrowings for working capital requirements, high receivable and huge outside liabilities payable during the year under consideration.

 

However, trade relation appears to be fair. Business is active. Payment terms are reported as delayed.

 

In view of promoters support, the subject can be considered for business dealings on a safe and secured trade terms and conditions.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

The Company is engaged in the business of manufacturing/selling of apparels and related accessories.

 

 

FINANCIAL RESULTS/ OPERATIONS

 

There is difference of Rs. 17.600 Millions in disclosed figures for the Financial Year 2011 in finance cost due to regrouping of figures for previous year, however it has no effect on Profit/ Loss of that year due to regrouping.

 

The year has been very challenging for the Company. As the members are aware that during the year the Company was planning to bring its Initial Public Offering (‘IPO’) hence the Company was on an aggressive expansion plan. However in September 2011, the representatives of then shareholders namely BC India Private Investors I and Star Markets Asia Inc. received certain anonymous calls about certain financial irregularities in the Company. Acting on such baseless anonymous calls, they withdrew their consent to the IPO and hence started the dispute among its shareholders interse. The company and the Promoter went into litigation against the investors against such unreasonable withdrawal. Although the same was a internal matter to the Company but due to high profiling of the company and investor shareholders, the matter was covered extensively in financial media which created negative publicity for the Company and resulted in the Banking facilities of the Company being put on hold as both the investors and the Banks sought the scrutiny of the Books of Accounts of the Company.

 

The main lender Bank had appointed Aggarwal Anil and Company Chartered Accountants as Special Auditors for conducting special audit as per scope assigned by the Bank who conducted detailed audit into the operations and books of accounts and submitted satisfactory report to the bankers. However due to the exaggerated reaction from all the corners, the business suffered. The bankers stopped releasing sanctioned limits and went into panic mode for reducing their exposures, thereby aggravating liquidity position of the company. Aggressive expansion plans went awry and company suffered heavy losses due to capital expenditure already committed. The primary reason for the panic among the suppliers was that the Banks started dishonoring the LC?s that they had issued to suppliers by pointing out minor discrepancies and returning the documents unpaid which created insecurity among the suppliers who then in turn refused to deliver the merchandise without 100% advance payment. Although the dispute was over domestic business of the company, its ramifications spilled over to the export division also as due to their investors profile the matter was covered by US media also and the buyers became apprehensive about financial stability of the company and timely deliveries of the export orders, hence they shifted/cancelled the orders already confirmed which resulted in extra-ordinary losses. Due to prolonged dispute, operations of the company suffered due to financial crunch. Although they decided to consolidate their operations and focus on the sustaining the retail operations of the Company, the operations of the Company suffered greatly therefore though they were able to retain their sales their margins came really under pressure as the stores were offering discount on merchandise throughout the year then and because they had to take such a huge write off due to these extra-ordinary reasons.

CASH-STRAPPED LILLIPUT PLANS TO FLOAT IPO

 

Mumbai  

February 13, 2013

 

Strapped apparel company Lilliput Kidswear plans to cash in on the booming stock market. It is in talks with merchant bankers to float an initial public offering (IPO) the next financial year. According to sources, the company has plans to raise Rs 4000.000 Millions through the IPO.


The company was in talks with a few private equity players, including Chinese ones, to raise another round of funds.

The company, with a debt of Rs 8500.000 Millions, had restructured Rs 5860.000 Millions last year. Lilliput founder Sanjeev Narula confirmed the plan to enter the public market, without giving further details. The retailer had hit the headlines after its battle with private equity investors Bain Capital and TPG. In 2011, Bain and TPG had accused promoter Narula of fudging the books and not providing auditors access to financials. Narula alleged the investors were trying to stall the IPO plans and seize majority control.


In October, Sanjeev Narula, who had approached the company law board, withdrew all the cases against the investors, after they sold their 45 per cent stake to Narula, with no returns. Bain and TPG had together invested $86 million in Lilliput in 2010.


Admitting the $4-million default by Lilliput Kidswear to Bangladeshi garment exporters, Narula said, "At the time, the dispute between the shareholders had occurred, due to which the banks had put on hold the banking facilities, and the letters of credit (LoCs) could not be honoured."


“We had a complete intention to pay, which is a reason why we accepted the documents under the expired LoCs also. The first thing we have done is to invite them to India for arriving at a repayment schedule," he added.


Narula said all disputes with foreign investors have been resolved and 100 per cent equity is with the promoter.


"After multiple audits by the bankers, we were fortunate enough to receive their full support. Of our total banking limits of Rs 8500.000 Millions, 85 per cent of debt is restructured and the rest is under the process, expected to be complete by February- end," he said.


Major lenders Allahabad Bank, Axis Bank and Oriental Bank of Commerce had agreed to pay Rs 1000.000 Millions as working capital with an 18-month moratorium.


"The banks have been supportive in releasing the additional limits to the company and it is currently working on positive cash flows," added Narula. As on date, Lilliput owns 240 stores across 165 cities with a retailing space of around 6,50,000 sq. ft.

 

 

NO CHILD'S PLAY

 

HOME-GROWN RETAILERS OF CHILDREN'S WEAR ARE STRUGGLING ALONG A STEEP LEARNING CURVE.

 

July 21, 2013

 

Being taken to court by a private equity investor in May was just the latest on the list of troubles of home-grown kids' wear retailer Catmoss. The private equity firm, SAIF Partners, alleged that Catmoss was selling company assets, doctoring its books and fudging meeting minutes. Last year, SAIF roped in accounting firm KPMG to carry out a limited audit of Catmoss Retail, suspecting that Catmoss's management mismanaged its Rs 1000.000 Millions investment.


In 2011, PE firms Bain Capital and TPG Capital took Lilliput Kidswear to court over alleged accounting fraud. In a compromise last October, both the PE investors wrote off their entire investment in Lilliput and transferred their holdings to the promoters.


The organised children's wear market is suffering from growing pains. Catmoss and Lilliput are two of its three organised retail chains - and the third retailer, Gini & Jony, is not in great shape either. The organised segment, according to PwC, accounts for about five per cent of the market. It is paying the price for reckless expansion, in the form of heavy debt, poor brand recall, high rent costs, and continued competition from mom-and-pop shops in a highly fragmented market.

 

Things need not have been this way. The potential market - children up to 12 years old - is a good 23 per cent of the population. The kids' wear segment is one of the fastest growing in the country's apparel industry.


KPMG estimates the size of the kids' wear market in India at Rs 280000.000-300000.000 Millions, and expects it to reach Rs 430000.000 Millions by 2016 and Rs 720000.000 Millions by 2021. Given such expectations, companies went on expansion sprees, and PE investors backed them.


"One calculates as per the market forecast," says Anil Lakhani, Executive Director of Gini & Jony, which opened India's first exclusive kids' wear store in 1996/97 in Hyderabad. "Before 2009, everyone bought into the India shining story." Such was the euphoria that the company was set to go public in 2008, and planned to have a total of 260 exclusive brand outlets by the end of 2009 and 300 a year later. "Gradually, we went through a learning curve and corrected as per the new market reality," he says. Gini & Jony shelved its IPO plans and now depends heavily on internal accruals for expansion. The number of its exclusive outlets went up from 191 in 2010/11 to 203 in 2011/12, and dropped to 188 in 2012/13.


Lilliput, which had exported to international retailers since 1991, ventured into direct retail in India with its first store in New Delhi in 2003. By September 2011, it had 290 exclusive stores in India and 40 in 10 other countries. It has since shut down international operations, and the number of stores in India had dropped to 240 by 2012.


Sanjeev Narula, Lilliput's Chairman and Managing Director, says: "We have shut down international operations. The focus now is on cash sales to improve cash flow." Lilliput, which is servicing debt of Rs 8500.000 Millions, says its entire debt has been restructured by 10 banks.

 

Rival Catmoss - which opened its first store in New Delhi in 2004 and had 165 exclusive outlets as of last year - had secured loans of Rs 768.200 Millions and unsecured loans of Rs 77.000 Millions, according to its filing with the Registrar of Companies on March 31, 2010. More recent figures are not available.


PwC Associate Director Rashmi Upadhya says funding will remain the biggest challenge for companies in this sector. Accusations of financial irregularities have sent out the wrong signals to investors, making growth harder for these cash-strapped companies, which are already wrestling with huge debts.


Analysts say that all three retailers expanded too quickly to achieve deeper penetration in a nascent market.

PwC's Upadhya says that given the high cost of real estate, even though revenues grew in some cases, revenue per store lagged, and this hurt cash flow. Stretched balance sheets became a breeding ground for financial irregularities.

Ritu Marya, Editor-in-Chief at Franchise India Holdings Limited, a franchise and retail solutions company and publisher of Retailer magazine, says some companies dabbled in too many things, although they did not have adequate resources and supply chain support. They lacked not only the funds necessary for the aggressive expansion of company-owned and -operated stores, but also the organisational strength to service franchisees.

Besides, these companies could not build brand recall, especially as their products did not stand apart from the offerings in the larger unorganised market. Nor were they able to overcome the personal relationships that mom-and-pop stores had with customers . Giny & Jony's Lakhani says the biggest competition for branded products is the value market.

 

Take the example of art teacher and customer Shikha Joshi, who shops for her 20-month-old daughter at a local store in her West Delhi neighbourhood. She says: "A branded dress costs Rs 500 to Rs 600. Even on sale, it would cost at least Rs 350. I can get a similar one from the local store for Rs 200." She adds that she does buy her daughter branded clothes, but only for special occasions; most of her child's clothes are from the local shop.

As if they don't have enough on their hands, the three branded wear companies now have to worry about new rivals entering the market - rivals with deep pockets and a clear strategy. Mahindra Retail Private Limited, part of the $15.9-billion Mahindra Group, launched a venture called Mom & Me in Ahmedabad and Ludhiana in 2009, which quickly gained a foothold in the infant market. Mahindra Retail Managing Director K. Venkataraman says: "We entered with a focus on the mother and child segment and developed relationships with customers so that they grow with us. Women who have used our products during maternity continue to do so in the baby's infant years, followed by toddler years." 


Mahindra is not the only threat to the older kids' wear brands. Shoppers Stop has launched its own brand, Carrot, in the segment. Benetton, Pantaloons and Allen Solly have also jumped on to the children's wear bandwagon. So have international luxury brands such as Zara, Gucci, Fendi and Dior. Analysts say this rising tide has helped create brand awareness and clearly segment the market.


"With less time on hand, the family would like to complete its entire apparel shopping under one roof, rather than going ... to an exclusive kids wear store," says Lakhani of Giny & Jony. "These retailers give them the comfort of shopping for everything under the same roof." He says his company plans to concentrate on kids' wear, as that is its area of expertise.

 

Most companies agree that there is a market for just about every player in India. Home-grown children's wear brands are banking on their expertise in production, sourcing, and design. Lilliput's Narula says: "We have learnt the hard way how this market works, the power of regional designing - what sells in the North does not sell in the South - and how colours work in different markets."

 
Lessons learned, Lilliput plans to float an IPO. Narula says: "India is the biggest kids' wear market in the world. The Indian consumption story is intact. It's a great opportunity. In the next 10 months, we will hit the market."
