Comments :

Subject was incorporated in the year 1988 and it is engaged in the business of cultivating, planting, importing and exporting of grapes for producing wine, brandy and other liquors.

 

For the financial year 2017, the company has achieved a fair growth of 6.55 % in its revenue as compared to its previous year and has shown improved profitability margin during the year.

 

The company possesses moderate financial risk profile marked by negative reserve level, unfavourable gap between trade payables and receivables.

 

Rating gets constrained on account of high working capital intensity and exposure to intense competition and government regulation in wine-making industry.

 

However, these rating weakness gets partially offset by extensive experience and long track record of its promoters in the industry.

 

Payment seems to be slow but correct.

 

In view of aforesaid, the company can be considered for business dealing with some caution.

PERFORMANCE OF THE COMPANY:

 

The Company showed good progress during 2016-17 inspite of tough market conditions due to demonetization and news of liquor license ban on Highways. GZVL however registered good growth in top markets like Karnataka, Mumbai and Delhi. Several key markets showed decline including Kerala and Goa. Stock allocation and investment was directed towards potential and most profitable markets. Due to increase in price and shift towards the premium mix especially with a strong growth in sparkling wine category, the Company achieved overall value growth of around 10% at the last year volumes.

 

They achieved a strong organic growth in distribution across Pan India. The domestic footprint has extended to 22 markets. Distribution was further strengthen with over 10% increase in distribution points, consequently, building block for stronger growth opportunity in 2017-18.

 

Sourcing of premium quality grapes remained a challenge. Due to shortage of premium grapes the market saw an increase of grape price by 10%. Bulk wine was procured to meet the requirements of the sales. Subsequently, this could be a serious challenge in coming years. The cost of grape procurement from market is going up as there is strong competition to procure premium quality grapes. India's first super premium wine "Insignia" was launched at INR 5000. The wine was introduced in Magnum only pack and sold by invitation at our Bangalore winery. Sparkling wine sales from Bangalore winery was also started this year. The same was well received by consumer and trade.

 

The Company has won 30 international awards which helped with further penetration in domestic as well as International markets. It has been awarded 11 medals at “The Decanter Asia Wine Awards 2016” and 2 awards at “Decanter World Wine Awards 2016”. GZVL also won 6 awards at “The Hong Kong International Wine and Spirits Challenge 2016”. They participated again this year at “Sakura Japan Women’s Wine award 2016 and 2017” where GZVL won 4 and 3 awards respectively. Most accolades were awarded to Vijay Amritraj Reserve collection Red, Vijay Amritraj Reserve Collection White, Chêne Grande Réserve, Soirée Brut, La Réserve, Art Collection Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Shiraz.

 

The Company did several activations across the country and generated PR value. Over 329 activations across PAN India that included 198 consumer and 131 Food and Beverage trade events/tasting sessions were conducted.

 

GZVL has increased its international footprints to 27 countries. The key new markets include Mauritius, Canada and Sri Lanka. Good growth was registered in top 3 Markets: France, Japan and UK.

 

In view of the growth in the business and foreseeing the future business opportunities Company has decided to recognize the Deferred Tax Assets as it’s anticipated future taxable profits are going to be sufficient to offset the losses or the tax credit on carried forward losses.

 

Several initiatives were taken to both reduce and control expenses.

 

 

STATE OF THE COMPANY’S AFFAIR / FUTURE OUTLOOK

 

There is still a huge disparity between the consumption of wine and spirits in India. Wine is expected to grow by 20% as projected by Industry experts for next decade. Consumers are experimenting more with wine due to greater exposure due to travel, education or media. There is an increase in demand in key cities. With the same optimization, GZVL has put a plan of 30% growth in volumes. This is possible with stable socio-political and economy environment. However the year started with a liquor license ban along state Highways which resulted in drop on alcobev business across several markets. Inspite of this rough start, things are expected to be settled within Q1 and Industry possibly would show good growth during next 3 quarters. The wine segment continues to remains very competitive due to small Industry base. Majority of wineries were engaged in trade and consumer offers even upto 50% rebates or marketing support or a mix of both in order to get business. Since GZVL operated with the approved market schemes that was much lower than the market average, some key accounts were lost during the period.

 

GZVL will be focusing more on Land Lease and Management agreements with land owners and farmers. GZVL ownership/control on agricultural land is highly recommended for maintaining high quality and sell premium segment. Company plans to continue experimenting with new varietals and styles of winemaking.

 

As GZVL will be celebrating 25 years of winemaking, various initiatives for brand building and to gratify our consumers will be taken. The Company will be releasing a special celebration pack of sparkling wine to mark this celebration.

 

Strong measures will be taken to reduce fixed cost of the company in order to achieve healthier bottom line.

 

The key focus will remain on the premium brands like Insignia, Chene, Soiree, Vijay Amritraj Reserve Collection and La Reserve. Company intends to further grow its width of distribution and market penetration for premium segment to get better per case realization. With financial back up for Capex and Opex, GZVL is all set to achieve over 20 % YOY growth during the fiscal 2017-18.
