Strengths & Weaknesses

Strengths

Reputed brand and established market position: Mohan Meakin enjoys strong brand recognition and an established position because of its Old Monk brand in the domestic IMFL (Indian Made Foreign Liquor) market. Healthy brand reputation of Old Monk continues to drive healthy growth (both in value as well as volume terms) across own and franchisee networks.
Operational Performance: Mohan Meakin’s operating profit grew by 24.6% to ₹111.2 crore in FY 2024, supported by a 6% growth in volumes. Strong demand in the domestic dark rum segment, along with recent launches in whiskey, gin, and vodka, is driving continued growth.
Financial Strength: Mohan Meakin’s credit metrics are expected to remain strong, with robust revenue growth, a debt-free capital structure, and healthy liquidity. Profit margins improved in FY 2024 due to operational efficiencies and stable input prices. Mohan Meakin is setting up a ₹100 crore distillery, funded through internal accruals.
Pan-India Presence: The company has an established pan-India presence and generated ~18% of its total volumes from exports in FY2024.

Weaknesses

Lower Profit Margins Compared to Larger Players – Despite having a strong brand, MML’s operating margins are lower than some competitors. This is mainly because Old Monk is priced more affordably, and the company has limited flexibility in increasing franchisee fees.
Heavy Dependence on Rum Sales – A large part of MML’s revenue comes from the rum segment, with 87% of its total sales in FY2024 coming from rum alone. While the company is expanding into whiskey, gin, and vodka, rum remains its core product.
Strong Market Competition – MML faces tough competition from well-established liquor brands in India. While Old Monk has a loyal customer base, the company competes with premium and mass-market players, limiting its ability to capture higher-margin segments easily.
