Weaknesses
Any delay or
failure on the part of OEMs for providing products and to maintain
relationships with OEMs, or any material changes in the pricing, volume or
otherterms of existing agreements with the OEMs could impact operation as IIFL
is dependent on the OEMs, which are global technology brands, for its
offerings.
Failure to
maintain relationships or any loss or reduction of business from system
integrators can affect financial performance.
IIFL faces
significant competitive pressure from resellers and value-added distributors.
Certain
contracts or distribution agreements may have restrictive covenants and can
typically be terminated without cause, adversely affecting the business.
IIFLs business
is dependent on its ability to attract and retain skilled IT professionals
toidentify and curate technology solutions. Failure to do so will adversely
affect operations.
Experienced
negative cash flows from operating activities in FY 2023. Negative cash flows
from operating activities in future will affect the financial condition.
IIFL operates
in a rapidly evolving industry. If it is unable to capture technological
changes by successfully distributing new and enhanced solutions, revenue growth
will be affected.
Inability to
maintain or enhance the popularity of its brand among brands and customers could
adversely impact its business prospects.
Any
significant appreciation or depreciation of the Indian rupee against foreign
currencies in which the company does business could affect competitiveness in
the long-term. In FY2025, 66.2% of the gross sales billed to the customers were
through purchases made from OEMs outside India. IIFL earned around 12.5% of its
gross revenues from customers outside India.
Valuation
Consolidated sales were up by 18.3% to Rs 284.3 crore
in FY 2025. Growth in revenue was primarily due to increase in the domestic
revenue 19.8% to Rs 875.1 crore in FY2025 from FY2024. The OPM dropped 37 bps
