Zaggle Prepaid Ocean Services Limited's Long-Term Bank Facilities Reaffirmed at CARE A- Stable
Zaggle Prepaid Ocean Services Limited's long-term bank facilities of ₹100 crore have been reaffirmed at 'CARE A-; Stable' by CARE Ratings Limited. The rating reflects the company's market presence and growth, balanced by profitability and regulatory concerns. Total operating income grew to ₹1,302.65 crore in FY25.
A reaffirmation of a credit rating, especially for a significant portion of bank facilities, is important for a company's financial standing and access to credit, but it does not represent a significant positive or negative development.
The credit rating was reaffirmed, indicating stability, but the report also highlighted both strengths and weaknesses, leading to a neutral sentiment.
Zaggle Prepaid Ocean Services Limited has received a reaffirmation of its credit rating for long-term bank facilities amounting to ₹100 crore from CARE Ratings Limited. The rating has been maintained at 'CARE A-; Stable'.
The rating agency highlighted Zaggle's established market presence in the digital expense management solutions sector, supported by robust growth in operations, a growing user base, and diverse customer segments. The company's strong partnerships with network partners, diverse revenue streams including interchange fees and software products, and a comfortable financial risk profile with strong liquidity and debt coverage metrics were key factors in the reaffirmation.
However, CARE Ratings also noted constraints such as moderate profitability margins, primarily due to the pass-through nature of reward point redemptions, risks associated with acquisition-led growth and expansion into new geographies, a competitive landscape, regulatory risks, and continued dependence on third-party network partners.
Zaggle's total operating income has shown consistent growth, rising from ₹239.97 crore in FY21 to ₹1,302.65 crore in FY25. The company serves approximately 3,700 corporate customers with over 3.5 million platform users. Its financial structure remains comfortable, with overall gearing improving to 0.01x as of March 31, 2025, and interest coverage ratio increasing to 15.09x in FY25.
The company's liquidity position is assessed as adequate, supported by healthy cash accruals and a strong current ratio. Zaggle also maintains a significant cash and liquid investment balance and has recently raised approximately ₹595 crore from a QIP, intended for debt repayment, strategic expansion, acquisitions, and general corporate purposes.
