Comments :

Subject is an established company incorporated in the year 1985 and it is having excellent track.

 

For the financial year 2017, the company has increased in its revenue from operations as compared to previous year and maintained decent profitability margin of 8%.

 

Rating takes into consideration strong financial profile of the company marked by healthy networth base and low debt balance sheet.

 

Further, rating also derives strength from strong technical support received from its collaborator entity i.e. JCL, diverse revenue streams supported by established relationship with clients along with distribution network and improvement in the revenue profile during the year.

 

However, this rating strength is partially offset by exposure to intense competition in the domestic storage batteries segment, especially in the automotive aftermarket and telecommunications telecom battery sub-segments.

 

Trade relations are reported as fair. Business is active. Payment terms are seems to be regular.

 

In view of the aforesaid, the company can be considered for business dealings at usual trade terms and conditions.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS

 

Global economic overview

 

Global GDP growth slowed marginally to 3.1% year-on-year, as deceleration in key emerging and developing economies overshadowed a modest recovery in major developed countries. This deceleration was accompanied by modest increase in commodity prices, subdued global trade, bouts of financial market volatility, and weakening capital flows. Global industrial production (IP) growth slowed to 1.5% year on-year in 2016, after growing by 1.8% in 2015. This could have been worse had it not been for a healthy uptick in global economy during the second half of 2016 especially in advanced economies which also provides optimism for economic resurgence in the current year.

 

Indian economic overview

 

The Indian economy has been growing at an accelerated pace since 2014, supported by favorable government reforms and stringent fiscal regime that reigned in inflation. But, India could not sustain its 7%-plus GDP growth momentum registered over the last three years. In 2016-17, India’s GDP growth has been pegged at 6.5% down from 7.9% recorded in the previous financial year –largely owing to policy initiatives like demonetisation. The Index of Industrial Production (IIP), a measure of industrial performance, registering a growth of 5% during 2016- 17, against 3.4% during 2015-16. The halving of global oil prices that began in late 2014, boosted economic activity in India, further improved the external current account and fiscal positions and helped lower inflation in the past.

 

Outlook:

 

India’s economic growth is expected to improve in 2017-18. This optimism is based on two critical realities. The adoption of the Goods and Service Tax (GST) promises to create a single national market which will enhance efficiency of the movement of goods and services. This critical fiscal policy could make an important contribution to raise India’s medium-term GDP growth to over 8% (Source: IMF). Further, the Union Budget 2017-18, Agenda to Transform, Energise & Clean India (TEC India) puts an unprecedented thrust on rural infrastructure development which will have a multi-sector cascading impact. This initiative promises to make an important contribution to India’s economic resurgence with a good news of India becoming energy surplus with various policy reforms.
