This is for your information and records.

Rating Rationale

August 14, 2019 | Mumbai

DCM Limited

Ratings downgraded to 'CRISIL D/CRISIL D'

Rating Action

TotalBankLoanFacilitiesRated Rs.375.88Crore
LongTermRating CRISILD(Downgradedfrom'CRISILBB+/WatchNegative')
ShortTermRating CRISILD(Downgradedfrom'CRISILA4+/WatchNegative')

1 crore = 10 million Refer to annexure for Details of Instruments & Bank Facilities

Detailed Rationale

CRISIL has downgraded its ratings on the bank facilities of DCM Limited (DCM) to 'CRISIL D/CRISIL D' from 'CRISIL BB+/CRISIL A4+/Watch Negative'. The downgrade reflects delays by DCM in repaying the interest and principal obligation on the term loan.

The ratings continue to reflect the moderate debt protection metrics, stretched working capital cycle, and susceptibility to volatile cotton yarn prices and continues off take from the automobile sector. These weaknesses are partially offset by extensive experience of the promoters and DCM's moderate financial risk profile.

Key Rating Drivers & Detailed Description

* Delays in debt repayment

Stretch in receivables have constrained cash flow, resulting in delays by DCM in servicing the interest and principal payment on the term loan.

Weaknesses

* Moderate debt protection metrics: Debt protection metrics are moderate, with interest coverage and net cash accrual to total debt ratios at 2.4 and 0.17 times, respectively, for fiscal 2019.

* Working capital-intensive operations: Gross current assets stood at 123 days as on March 31, 2019, due to large inventory of 74 days and receivables of 33 days. Working capital management was however, aided by payables of 48 days extended by suppliers.

* Vulnerability to fluctuations in cotton yarn prices, and continuity in sales to the automobile sector: Susceptibility to fluctuations in raw material prices and to continuity in sales to the automobile sector continue to constrain operations margin. The margin has fluctuated between 2.3 and 7.2% in the five fiscals through March 2019 (combining the business and financial risk profiles of DCM and DCM Engineering Ltd [DCME] for fiscals before 2016).

Strengths

* Extensive experience of the promoters: The present management comprises the fourth generation of the promoter family. Over the years, the group has diversified into real estate, engineering, and information technology segments, and forged healthy relationships with customers and suppliers.

* Moderate financial risk profile: The financial risk profile is marked by a healthy adjusted networth of Rs 194.2 crore and total outside liabilities to adjusted networth ratio of 2 times as on March 31, 2019. Financial risk profile is expected to remain moderate in FY 20.

Liquidity

Liquidity is stretched, marked by delay in debt repayment.
