The ratings also factor established position of the promoter group of SIL in the styrene based polymer business globally, its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, established arrangement for procurement of key raw materials along with its comfortable leverage and improved profitability in H1FY21 (FY refers to the period from April 1 to March 31). CARE also notes that SIL has not availed any moratorium as a Covid relief measure, in line with Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines, for servicing of its bank facilities which underlines its adequate liquidity profile. The above rating strengths, however, continue to be constrained by susceptibility of SIL’s moderate profitability to volatile raw material prices as they are derivatives of crude oil and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations associated with imported raw materials along with inherently low profit margin of its polystyrene business.
