Comments :

Subject was incorporated in the year 2005. It is a manufacturer of pharmaceutical products. The company got listed on December 19, 2016.

For the financial year 2017, the company has achieved revenue growth of 6.09% as compared to the previous year along with a fair profit margin of 10.56%.

The sound financial risk profile of the company is marked by adequate net worth base along with strong debt protection metrics due to negligible debt balance sheet profile.


Rating takes into consideration the subject’s healthy Earning Per Share of INR 22.14 against the Face Value of INR 10.


The ratings also factors in ease in liquidity position on account of cash inflows from Initial Public Offering (IPO) coupled with trade advance from new customers, prepayment of term debt, experienced promoters having long-term presence in the pharma industry, healthy product portfolio and reputed customer base.

The ratings are, however, constrained by elongated operating cycle, ongoing capex risk, exposure to regulatory risk and foreign exchange fluctuation risk.

Payments are reported to be regular.


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

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Global Economy

 

The global economy gained momentum in the fourth quarter of 2016 from a rather lacklustre performance in the beginning of the year. Encouragingly, the impetus is expected to continue. Global economic growth is likely to strengthen from an estimated 3.1% in 2016 to 3.5% in 2017. The primary reasons for this growth, include buoyant financial markets and a long-awaited cyclical recovery in manufacturing.

 

The impact on global economic growth and business performance has been mixed so far. The performance of emerging and developing economies, except India has been rather challenging in 2016. With persistent structural shifts occurring in the global economy, emerging market and developing economies may have to reorient and recalibrate their strategies for future growth. However, the considerable income gaps in these economies vis-à-vis their advanced counterparts suggest further room for catch-up. Such a scenario will enable these economies to sustain relatively strong potential growth over the medium term.

 

China, the world’s second largest economy, is projected to grow by 6.7% in 2017. The major factors comprise: strong fiscal support provided by the government, loose monetary policy, and a booming property market. The currencies of advanced commodity exporters have also strengthened, reflecting the firming up of commodity prices, whereas the euro and especially the Japanese yen have weakened.

 

Outlook

 

Global economic activity is stabilising, but legacy challenges remain. The momentum can only be sustained if policymakers implement the right set of policies and avoid missteps.

 

For many economies, continued demand support and well-targeted structural reforms to lift supply potential and broaden economic opportunities across the skills spectrum remain the primary objectives. The precise combination of priorities differ across individual economies, depending on their cyclical conditions, structural challenges, and needs for enhancing resilience.

 

Indian Economy

 

India’s GDP for 2017 is expected to touch 7.1%, demonstrating the fact that India’s economic fundamentals continue to be strong. The year 2017 was marked by a variety of institutional reforms such as the implementation of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, creation of Monetary Policy Committee, redesigning of the FRBM framework, passage of GST, and finally, the policy thrust towards a less-cash formal economy. The National Health Policy 2017 is also a significant milestone in the history of public health in the country.

 

The Policy recommends prioritising the role of the Government in shaping health systems in all its dimensions. The country’s economic fundamentals (low fiscal and current account deficit, moderate inflation, and manageable trade deficit) and consistent thrust on infrastructure and reforms will create more opportunities for businesses and employment.

 

Outlook

 

India’s economic growth is expected to accelerate, backed by improved investor confidence, and better policy reforms. The Government’s continuing fiscal consolidation, and gradual improvement in rural demand are expected to drive growth, going forward.

 

The country’s growth rate is likely to touch 7.4% in 2018, driven by a rebound in consumption demand post demonetisation. In addition, long-term consumption growth will be driven by major factors: government’s impetus towards reforms across all sectors of the economy; low interest rates; benign inflation; favourable demographics (half of the population is below the age of 35), and an expanding addressable market size (India now has 50 large consumption hubs).

 

PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY

 

Global

 

The global spending on medicines is likely to reach US$ 1.5 trillion by 2021, up 33% from 2016 levels, but down from recent high growth rates in 2014 and 2015 (Source: Quintiles IMS, Outlook for Global Medicines Through 2021: Balancing Cost and Value). The medicine spending is expected to grow by 4-7% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during the next five years, down from the nearly 9% growth level seen in 2014 and 2015.

 

The short-term rise in growth in 2014 and 2015 was driven by new medicines in hepatitis and cancer. These factors will have a reduced impact through 2021. The total volume of medicines consumed globally is likely to increase by about 3% annually through 2021, only modestly faster than population and demographic shifts. Issues of pricing, market-access pressures, lower volume growth in emerging markets, and further generic drug movement will contribute to low level of growth.

 

The total global spend for pharmaceuticals through 2021 will increase by US$ 367 billion on a constantdollar basis. Most global spending growth, particularly in developed markets, will be driven by innovations in oncology, autoimmune, and diabetes treatments. The US will continue as the world’s largest pharmaceutical market and pharmerging markets will make up nine of the top 20 markets. The country will account for 53% of expected growth over the next five years, while China will continue as the second largest market, a position it has held since 2012, contributing 12% of the growth.

 

Developed market spending growth will be determined by original brands, while pharmerging markets will continue to be powered by non-original products that make up an average 91% of pharmerging market volume and 78% of spending. Specialty medicines are projected to increase their share particularly in developed markets.

 

The share of specialty medicines in global spending has risen from 20% 10 years ago to 30% in 2016 and to 35% by 2021. This is likely to approach half of total spending in the US and European markets, according to a study.

* Demand for direct taxes under appeal comprise demand from the Indian tax authorities for payment of additional tax for the financial year 2007-08 (Assessment year 2008-09) on account of disallowance of deduction under Section 10A of the Income Tax Act, 1961 as claimed by the Company under the Income tax Act, 1961 of INR 10.10 (March 31, 2016: INR 10.10, April 01, 2015: INR 10.10). As against the same, the Company has paid tax under protest for INR 7.05 (March 31, 2016: INR 7.05, April 01, 2015: 7.05). The matter is pending before the Honourable High Court of Karnataka.

 

Demand for indirect taxes majorly comprise demand for an amount of INR 99.78 (including 100% penalty on tax thereon) from the Commissioner of Central Excise, Customs & Service Tax, for the period October 2010 to March 2015, disputing that the Company is engaged in providing technical testing and analysis services performed in India but has not discharged service tax claiming them to be export of services.
