E-governance. Indian Government’s interaction with its citizens (G2C) and businesses (G2B) is increasingly going electronic. Proposed laws on time-bound delivery via electronic platforms are imparting speed, timeliness and accuracy in important areas: (1) land, civil and judicial records, (2) benefits transfer and tax compliance, (3) procurement, auctioning and corporate affairs, among others. Transparency, accountability will reduce corruption; increase speed of doing business.

E-expressway: G2B and G2C interactions are increasingly electronic India, which works as the hub of global IT industry, has been a latecomer to leveraging IT for local governance.

States are also implementing digitization of land speed and efficiency records with the ultimate aim of moving to a Torrens land record system. As revenue departments of business get digitized and property tax becomes an important source of revenue, records of land and property are becoming available online.

We study the model of top-down planning and execution and also detail a few case studies across various sectors where digitization has made a marked impact. A transparent world governed by rule of law

The government, as part of its National e-governance Plan, proposes to digitize various facets of its interaction with its citizens and businesses. Bills like ‘Electronic Delivery of Service Bill, 2011’, ‘Right of Citizens for Time Bound Delivery of Goods and Services and Redressal of their Grievances Bill, 2011’ and ‘Public Procurement Bill, 2012’ are creating the legal framework for time-bound electronic service delivery.

GameChangers: Increase bandwidth; free data; involve citizens

Digitizing India has the potential of reducing bureaucratic hurdles in starting and running businesses in India. Making interfaces more customer friendly, introducing and publicizing penal actions taken and consolidating the data across platforms will make governing India easier and possibly a lot cheaper. More important, the data that is generated needs to be made public in a format that can be understood by both humans and machines: high-quality data coupled with in- depth analysis can lead to significantly improved outcomes.

Rush to comply with MPS norms. The Indian market has seen 44 OFSs (offer for sale) and eight IPPs (institutional placement program) worth US$9 bn since the announcement of an amendment in the minimum public shareholding (MPS) norms. We estimate a further sale of around US$1.9 bn over the next few days (by June 3, 2013) as 75 private-sector companies have yet to comply with the 25% MPS norm. Another 12 PSUs have to comply with the MPS requirement of 10% by August 9, 2013; we estimate the sale amount at US$680 mn at current prices.

QUICK NUMBERS • 87 companies (75 private and 12 PSU) Minimum public shareholding: 10% for PSUs, 25% for private companies are yet to comply with the revised On June 4, 2010, the finance ministry amended the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Rules, 1957 minimum public (SCRR), raising the minimum public shareholding (MPS) requirement to 25% for listed companies shareholding norms or those that proposed to list. Listed companies that did not meet the MPS norm would be required to increase public shareholding by at least 5% a year until they met the norm. On August • US$1.9 bn supply of 9, 2010, the SCRR was amended again to revise public-sector companies’ MPS norms to 10% paper is expected (from 25%) within three years from August 2010. over the next few 87 companies yet to comply with revised MPS norms days

Many large-capitalization companies have complied with the MPS norms (see Exhibits 1-3). 87 • 30 companies in the actively traded companies (12 public and 75 private companies) have yet to comply with the BSE-500 Index have revised MPS norms (see Exhibits 4-5). So far, the market has seen 44 OFSs (offer for sale) and eight yet to comply with IPPs (institutional placement program) worth US$9 bn. Other private companies are hurrying to the MPS norms comply with the MPS norms before the June 2013 deadline (for public companies the deadline is August 2013). SEBI has allowed companies to take either one of the routes—FPO (follow-on public offer), OFS, IPP or bonus/rights issues—to comply with the revised norms. A company wanting to take any other route must take SEBI’s permission before doing so.

SEBI to levy penalties on non-compliant companies

According to media reports, SEBI is working on penalties for companies that may be unable to meet the revised MPS norms, but would be lenient with companies that made an effort to meet them. The regulator also stated it would try to ensure that any action taken would not harm the interests of minority shareholders.

ADD State Bank of India (SBIN)

Banks/Financial Institutions MAY 24, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Can growth solve key problems? SBI’s move to grow its corporate loan portfolio Price (Rs): 2,178 aggressively (40% yoy) is raising new concerns on the outcome of such a strategy as it Target price (Rs): 2,430 has hurt its NIM profile, even as the weak economic environment suggests that chunky BSE-30: 19,674 loan impairment could surface in a shorter time-frame. Further, the bank is trading at a premium that could be tested over the next few quarters. While we do not derive comfort from this strategy, we believe the alternative option to shift to other public banks could be risky. SBI’s tier-1 ratio, liability profile and retail business offer comfort. Maintain ADD.

A bold move to grow large corporate loan portfolio as the shift is hurting near-term performance • Maintain ADD with TP of `2,430 (from SBI reported a weak revenue growth as NII declined 5% yoy despite a strong loan growth of 21% `2,420 earlier) yoy and using the balance sheet as effectively as possible (CD ratio >80%). Revenue growth saw limited contribution from non-interest income, especially treasury gains, while fee income declined 8% yoy. FY2013 saw NII growth at <3% yoy while balance sheet expanded 17% yoy.

Large corporate loans grew 40% yoy (12% qoq) led by infrastructure, iron and steel and textiles. However, to reduce risk of strong growth, management has opted for loan takeover and/or choosing companies with strong balance sheet. On the other hand, the bank is building its retail portfolio (15% yoy) through aggressive pricing, in portfolios where the stress is not as large as the corporate portfolio. The shift is hurting NIM, which has declined ~15 bps qoq (~70 bps yoy).

Loan impairment ratios showed mixed trends. NPLs declined on the back of lower slippages (2.4% of loans) and higher upgradation (2% of loans). However, upgradation was driven primarily by higher restructuring (3.5% of loans). Restructured loans increased 70 bps qoq to 3% of loans.

Multiple headwinds appearing in the short term; maintain ADD

We believe the outperformance witnessed against its peers in recent quarters is likely to be challenged in the medium term. The bank is trading at a significant premium to BoB and PNB— both have slowed their balance sheet growth to focus on reducing their loan impairment ratios. The strong growth in low-yielding, low-risk loans could result in further margin adjustment and/or rise in NPLs in some of these exposures. However, these banks are in a phase of consolidation of their respective business and have skewed balance sheet that is positioned for investment cycle.

We take a cautious approach to our earnings estimates as NIM compression has scope for reduction but keep credit costs elevated to factor (1) chunky loan impairment, (2) improvement in coverage ratio and (3) dynamic provisions. Our positive rating is driven by the bank’s strong liability profile (CASA ratio >40%), healthy tier-1 ratio (9.5%) and flexible model that allows growth in retail. We maintain our ADD rating with TP at `2,430/share (standalone at ~1.8X FY2014E adjusted book and its banking subsidiaries at 1X book).

Delinquencies high; improvement in provision coverage provides comfort

Fresh impairments remained high at 6% of loans, 2.4% of fresh slippages and 3.6% of fresh restructuring. Slippages for the quarter were largely driven by the corporate portfolio (~50%). Gross NPLs decreased 4% on an absolute basis driven by high upgradation (1.9% annualized). However, ~45% of these upgradations were led by approval of restructuring packages for the borrowers, which led to a commensurate increase in the restructured portfolio (24% of the fresh restructuring came from upgradation in the NPL portfolio). Decline in slippages and overall NPLs in the agriculture, SME and retail segments are encouraging but these are driven by seasonal factors. Performance in 1HFY14 would be crucial to understand the NPLs of these portfolios.

Outstanding restructured loans increased to 4% of overall loans from 3.4% in Dec 2012, the standard restructured advances being 3.1% of loan book. Of the `87 bn of fresh restructuring (3.6% annualized), 40% belongs to three accounts in the power sector. The management highlighted that the pipeline for restructured loans continues to remain high. The bank has `40 bn of SEB exposure to 3 SEBs, 90% (2 accounts) of which has been restructured recently and would be reflected in 1QFY14.

We derive some comfort from the additional provisions made to improve the provision coverage ratio during the quarter, 67% (500 bps qoq). However, we remain cautious on high stress (NPL and restructured loans) in the corporate portfolio: textiles (11%), engineering (11%) and iron and steel (14%). We factor slippages at 3-3.2% of loans and credit costs to remain at 1.4% for FY2014-15E.

NIM decline >10 bps qoq led by decline in lending yields and flat cost of funds

Overall NIM declined >10 bps qoq to 3.2% led by similar decline in domestic margins to 3.4%. International margins declined by ~10 bps to 1.5%. Yield on advances (KS-calc) declined >50 bps qoq as the impact of aggressive pricing done on asset side for high rated accounts started to reflect while cost of deposits remained relatively flat. The bank’s CD ratio is on the higher side (CD ratio moved up 300 bps qoq to 82%) with limited scope for further expansion from current levels.

We expect margins to remain under pressure and decline by ~10-15 bps by FY2015E as incremental growth is likely to be driven by refinancing opportunities and retail loans, where yields are lower, should exert a downward pressure on margins.

CASA ratio improved 100 bps qoq to 47% of domestic deposits. Overall growth in savings deposits remains healthy at 15% yoy, and current deposits grew 12% yoy. Contribution from wholesale deposits is less than 1% of the overall deposits.

Growth above industry average, high exposure to stressed sectors

Overall loans grew 21% yoy, much ahead of industry average, driven by strong growth in large corporate loans (40% yoy) and international loans (25% yoy). Large corporate loans grew 40% yoy, the fastest pace in past four quarters, led by capitalizing on refinancing opportunities and short-term lending. Loans to mid-corporate and SME segments grew at a subdued pace of 18% yoy and 9% yoy respectively, in line with management’s strategy as the bank witnessed elevated stress in these categories in the past few quarters. We are disappointed by the traction in retail loans, 15% yoy despite strong management focus. Housing loans grew 16% yoy compared to system (banks and NBFCs) average of 19% yoy, resulting in marginal decline in market share, 40 bps to 15.7% in housing loans.

The bank continues to show strong growth in exposures to stressed sectors (infrastructure, iron and steel, textiles and engineering), which is disappointing, 26% yoy (9% qoq, 24% of overall loans). Overall exposure to infrastructure stands at 11% (power 5.5%), iron and steel 6% and textiles 4% of total loans.

Other key financial highlights for the quarter

` Cost-income ratio increased 600 bps qoq to 53% compared to 47% in Dec 2012. Staff expenses increased 30% qoq (8% yoy) as the bank made high provisions for the new wage settlement in the current quarter; no provisions were made in the previous two quarters. Retirement-related expenses grew 21% qoq (declined 14% yoy on a high base) while non-staff expenses increased 22% qoq (68% yoy). We note that SBI had changed its retirement accounting policy in 1QFY13 and values the impact of these costs on a quarterly basis as compared to an annual exercise done earlier.

` Non-interest income increased 52% qoq, 5% yoy on a high base, driven by sharp rise in treasury gains (`2 bn). Ex-treasury gains, other income was flat compared to 4QFY12. Core fee income reported a decline of 8% yoy, while income from forex increased 42% yoy. Income from dividends increased 24% yoy. We expect fee income growth at 3% CAGR for FY2012-14E.

` Consolidated earnings declined 31% yoy to `39 bn. SBI Life reported a profit of `2 bn, while SBI Capital Markets posted a profit of `840 mn.

` Overall tier-1 ratio stands at 9.5% and overall capital adequacy at 12.92%.

SELL Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL)

Industrials MAY 24, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Ordering revival necessary for stock re-rating; not visible yet on sectoral issues. Price (Rs): 196 4QFY13 results were marginally better than flash results (revenues of Rs188 bn; margin Target price (Rs): 175 revised up to 22.8%; PAT of Rs32.3 bn, down 4% yoy). BHEL believes that slowdown/ BSE-30: 19,674 ordering has bottomed out (although FY2013 was supported by bulk tender wins; a support absent in FY2014E). Scale-up in industrial business remains unclear. Working capital has deteriorated on higher debtors (half are not collectible on milestones, retentions, etc.) and lower advances. Reiterate SELL on potential decline trajectory.

4QFY13: Results marginally better than provisional numbers; margin revised upwards by 60 bps

` Revenues at Rs188 bn, down 2% yoy. BHEL reported 4QFY13 revenues of Rs188 bn, broadly in line with the provisional numbers, down 2% yoy. Core power segment reported flat revenues of Rs155 bn, while the industry segment recorded a 7% yoy revenue decline to Rs43 bn.

` EBITDA margin revised upwards to 22.8%; ahead of our estimates. EBITDA margin of 22.8% (100 bps yoy decline) was better than provisional 22.2% and ahead of our 22% estimate. Power segment EBIT margin declined 130 bps yoy although was flat for the full year. Industry segment margin though declined ~900 bps in 4QFY13 and ~800 bps for the full year.

` PAT at Rs32.3 bn, down 4% yoy; 4% ahead of provisional number. BHEL reported a net PAT of Rs32.3 bn for 4QFY13, marginally higher (by about 4%) versus the provisional number reported (at Rs31 bn) and down 4% yoy (from reported net PAT of Rs33.8 bn in 4QFY12).

Expects power cycle to have bottomed out but less confident on pace of recovery

While BHEL cited some operational improvements (flattish adjusted full-year employee cost, 15% higher cash collection, establishment of super critical value chain), business revival would still depend on order inflows picking up. BHEL believes that power capex cycle has bottomed out (expects next year’s inflows to be better), although was less confident on the pace of recovery (refrained from sharing MoU revenue target, unlike previous years). Working capital has further deteriorated (127 days of sales) primarily on (1) higher debtors (50% are not yet collectible on milestones issues, retentions, etc.) and (2) lower advances.

Revise estimates on higher margin and inflow assumption; reiterate SELL with TP of Rs175

We revise our estimates to Rs21 and Rs16.2 from Rs19 and Rs16.4 for FY2014E-15E on (1) higher FY2014E margin estimate (80 bps revision) and (2) marginal higher inflows (2-5% revision). We retain our SELL rating (TP: Rs175) as valuations do not provide comfort with potential earnings decline on the back of inadequate backlog, slower execution and negative operating leverage.

4QFY13 results: Marginally better than provisional numbers

` Revenues record marginal decline (led by industrials; power segment remain flat. BHEL reported net revenues of Rs188.5 bn in 4QFY13, a small decline of 2% on a yoy basis (broadly in line with provisional numbers reported in April). For the full-year FY2013, BHEL reported net revenues of Rs476 bn, relatively flat on a yoy basis (from Rs472 bn in FY2012).

` EBITDA margin contracts 100 bps on negative operating leverage. EBITDA margin contracted by about 100 bps on a yoy basis in 4QFY13 to 22.8% against our estimate of about 22% EBITDA margin. The yoy contraction/expansion was primarily led by negative operating leverage (on higher employee and other expenses as a percentage of sales), while contribution margins in fact expanded by about 140 bps yoy. We believe that BTG/EPC price has fallen significantly in the Indian market in recent tenders, as bidders are desperate for orders, and thus even contribution margins would also start coming under pressure.

` Net PAT at Rs32.4 bn, down 4% yoy. BHEL reported a 4QFY13 net PAT of Rs33.4 bn, down 4% yoy from Rs33.8 bn in 4QFY12; FY2013 net PAT at Rs66 bn was down 6% yoy (form Rs70.4 bn in FY2012). For the full-year FY2013, EBITDA margin contracted to 18% (against 19.3% in FY2012).

Segmental: Margin decline sharper for industrial segment

` Power. Power segment revenues remained relatively flat on a yoy basis at Rs155.4 bn in 4QFY13. We believe BHEL’s revenue growth trajectory may face further downside risk in the coming quarters on the back of sluggish order inflows. Power segment reported an EBIT margin of 26.1% in 4QFY13, a contraction of 130 bps yoy versus 27.4% in 4QFY12 (18.3% in 3Q).

` Industry. Industry segment revenues declined by 7% yoy to Rs43.4 bn. Industrial segment EBIT margins also contracted to 21.6% for the quarter from very high margins of 30.4% in 4QFY12 (18.3% in 3Q).

Takeaways from the conference call

` Cites operational improvements. BHEL cited operational improvements in terms of (1) containment of FY2013 employee cost (flat yoy adjusted for increase in dearness allowance and actuarial revisions), (2) higher cash collection from debtors (up 15% yoy) and (3) establishment of super critical value chain. While these developments are positive, we believe business revival would still depend on order inflows picking up.

` Expects power cycle to have bottomed out. BHEL believes that power capex cycle has bottomed and expects higher inflows in FY2014E. It was less confident on the pace of revival. We note that the company has refrained from sharing MoU revenue target this time (usually declares this information publicly on its website). Higher inflows in FY2014E are debatable as FY2013 order inflows were supported by large bulk tender order wins as well.

Strong order inflows of Rs208 bn in 4Q against low inflows in 9M

BHEL reported relatively strong order inflows of Rs316 bn in FY2013 against only Rs107 bn reported in 9MFY13 (though significantly lower than guidance at the start of the year). This implies order inflows to the tune of about Rs208 bn in 4QFY13.

For the full year, Rs316 bn of order inflows comprised Rs256 bn from power (~7.8 GW), Rs41 bn from industry and Rs20 bn from international markets (~1.8 GW).

Backlog provides limited visibility for a 3-year execution period business

BHEL reported a year-end order backlog of Rs1.15 tn of which power contributed 81% share. This provides limited 2.6-year visibility on one-year forward revenues (already assume 12% decline) for a 3-year execution period business (3.5 years for power, 1.5 years for industry segment).

Balance sheet – debt at Rs14 bn on working capital deterioration

BHEL reported a gross year-end debt of Rs14 bn against almost nil debt (of Rs1.2 bn) at the start of the year. This is primarily on the back of deterioration in working capital levels – net working capital (excluding cash) has increased to about 127 days of sales at end-FY2013 against 86 days at end-FY2012; note that this is versus low levels of only 26 days at end- FY2011. Working capital has primarily deteriorated on (1) higher debtors (Rs400 bn out of which 50% are receivables that are not due as yet, such as retention money, revenue recognized on percentage completion but milestones for recognition not yet in place) and (2) lower advances (declined Rs30 bn yoy to Rs130 bn).

Marginally revise estimates on higher inflow assumption; retain SELL

We revise our estimates to Rs21 and Rs16.2 from Rs19 and Rs16.4 on the back of (1) increase in FY2014 EBITDA margin (80 bps revision on better-than-expected execution of current projects) and (2) marginal higher inflows (2-5% revision).

We retain our cautious stance (SELL, TP: Rs175) as valuations do not provide comfort with potential earnings decline on the back of inadequate backlog, slower execution and negative operating leverage.

ADD Tata Steel (TATA)

Metals & Mining MAY 24, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Neutral

Excellent overall performance. Tata Steel reported 4QFY13 consolidated EBITDA of Price (Rs): 300 Rs43.7 bn, 41% ahead of our estimate. Results were excellent, led by (1) solid EBITDA Target price (Rs): 370 generation in Tata Steel Europe and (2) the benefit of higher volumes, lower forex BSE-30: 19,674 losses and favorable power rates, which drove a 10% standalone EBITDA beat. Tata Steel took an impairment charge of Rs83.5 bn, largely on European operations. Strong 4QFY13 performance offers some comfort in execution and outlook in a challenging steel market. We maintain our ADD rating but cut target price to Rs370 from Rs400.

4QFY13 results: Strong operational quarter, Europe turns EBITDA positive

` Standalone EBITDA of Rs33 bn (+30.8% qoq, 10.4% yoy) was 10% ahead of our estimate. The beat was led by (1) a US$16/ton decline in power costs. This was a function of 6% decline in power tariffs from Tata Power and a reversal of provisions and (2) a Rs1.3 bn of forex swing sequentially and the benefit of higher volumes. EBITDA increased by 8% qoq to US$267/ton. Realization declined by 4.8% to US$872/ton possibly due to a weak mix and exports.

` Tata Steel Europe reported EBITDA of US$113 mn, a significant improvement over US$78 mn EBITDA loss in 3QFY13 and far higher than our estimate. The Improvement was led by a lag benefit of lower iron ore and coking coal prices. We understand EBITDA includes a one-off provision reversal of ~US$50 mn. EBITDA/ton for the quarter was US$33. EBITDA may however decline in the next quarter on a lag impact of higher iron ore costs.

` Tata Steel took an extraordinary charge of Rs83.5 bn. This comprises goodwill impairment of Rs47.5 bn and Rs36 bn of write-down of other assets. These write-downs pertain largely to European assets. Additionally, the company wrote down assets in the ferro-chrome business in South Africa and the mini blast furnace in Tata Steel Thailand. Tata Steel reported an extraordinary gain of Rs9.43 bn comprising sale of shares in Titan Industries. Consolidated net income before extraordinary items was Rs7.3 bn against our estimate of Rs0.7 bn.

FY2014E could be a better year, control on leverage a must for returns; We retain ADD

Growth drivers in FY2014E (after a disastrous FY2013) could be (1) better absorption of cost and incremental volumes from the Jamshedpur expansion and 2) value accretion from multiple cost savings initiatives and raw material projects. However, Tata Steel’s high leverage worries us (net debt/EBITDA of 4.5X and 3.9X in FY2013 and FY2014E). We maintain our ADD rating but incorporate cyclical and leverage risks through a cut in target multiple, resulting in an 8 % cut in target price to Rs370.

Exhibit 8 summarizes key changes to our estimates. We expect steel realizations to be muted from these levels (with a marginal decline) due to continued overcapacity, lack of supply discipline and muted demand in major steel consuming regions. We cut our HRC price by 3% to US$605/ton. We also incorporate our revised hard coking coal price forecast of US$170/ton. We maintain our ADD rating.

Conversion costs appear to be finally under control

After continued increase in conversion costs (Rs6,100/ton over the past two years), conversion costs appear to be declining. Conversion cost declined Rs4,260/ton qoq to Rs19,095/ton. This can be attributed to better absorption of fixed costs related to commissioning of new capacity. Sustainability of the decline in conversion costs remains a question mark, though.

Net debt declines marginally on a sequential basis but will rise over two years

The company’s net debt in 4QFY13 declined marginally to Rs554 bn from Rs580 bn in 3QFY13. This was due to significant inventory liquidation, sale of stake in Titan Industries and strong EBITDA generation. Tata Steel spent Rs152 bn on capex in FY2013; FY2014 guidance stands at ~Rs135 bn (US$2.5 bn). We expect net debt to increase to Rs633 bn and Rs668 bn in FY2014 and FY2015 due to Odisha capex (Rs230 bn in the first phase). While media reports indicate possible (partial) sale of European assets, we highlight that depressed valuations in the region could provide only marginal relief.

Net debt/EBITDA of 4.5X FY2014E and 3.9X FY2015E offer no comfort. Net debt/equity, after the impairment charge of Rs83.5 bn, increased to 1.6X, 1.7X and 1.7X in FY2013, FY2014E and FY2015E. The management indicated that it did not have consolidated debt/equity-linked debt covenants.

More details on the impairment charge and asset write-down

The Tata Steel management indicated that most of the impairment provisions were in the long products portfolio in Europe. Impairment charge was also taken for the ferro-chorme business in South Africa in the standalone and consolidated books. The company also took a charge on a mini blast furnace in Thailand.

The management indicated that it used a scientific process to assess the impairment charge. Essentially, Tata Steel allocated the GBP2.2 bn goodwill (acquisition consideration in excess of book value) at the time of acquisition to different business units, based on expected valuation of each unit. In a review, done in 4QFY13, the impairment charge to the extent of Rs83.6 bn was (1) first set off against the goodwill allocated to the assets found to be impaired and (2) if the impairment charge was higher than the allocated goodwill, the residual portion was set off against the PPE of the impaired asset.

The impairment charge of Rs83.6 bn comprises goodwill impairment of Rs47.51 bn and Rs36.04 bn of write-down of other assets. Write-down of assets will reduce the recurring deprecation charge.

Highlights from the analyst meet

` South East Asia operations reported EBITDA of US$41 mn (+59%qoq, +97% yoy). Performance was aided by robust construction demand in the region.

` Odisha project. The company expects project commissioning to commence from October 2014. The company has spent Rs83 bn on the project; FY2014 spend on Odisha is estimated at Rs80 bn. Total capex for the first phase (3 mtpa) is budgeted at Rs240 bn. Note that capex spent during the first phase will be higher as higher auxiliary facilities will be commissioned in the first phase to cater to phase II, as well; the management expects 65% of the project commissioning to be complete in phase I, itself.

` The company will procure ~500 kt of external coke in FY2014. After the commissioning of its coke oven battery 11, the external purchase is expected to be discontinued (in FY2015).

` Tata Steel Europe does not plan to sell carbon credits in the near future.

SELL JSW Steel (JSTL)

Metals & Mining MAY 24, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Neutral

Volume-led beat. JSW Steel reported 4QFY13 consolidated EBITDA of Rs17.3 bn, 18% Price (Rs): 688 higher than our estimate, led by strong steel deliveries and cost efficiencies. JSW’s Target price (Rs): 585 guidance indicates 10% growth in steel deliveries for FY2014, which we believe is a tad BSE-30: 19,674 aggressive. We believe iron ore sourcing challenges may continue in FY2014 and lead to sub-optimal utilization and/or result in elevated costs. Weak domestic demand is expected to put pressure on realization and profitability. High leverage does not help, either. We maintain SELL with an unchanged 12-month forward target price of Rs585.

Company data and valuation summary JSW Steel Stock data Forecasts/Valuations 2013 2014E 2015E 52-week range (Rs) (high,low) 939-566 EPS (Rs) 43.2 58.0 86.2 Market Cap.

Yield (%) 1.5 1.5 1.5

Good operational performance drives a handsome beat

JSW reported standalone EBITDA of Rs17.0 bn (+29.2% qoq, +2.8% yoy), 19% higher than our estimate. The beat was led by (1) 12% qoq growth in steel deliveries to 2.43 mn tons, 13% higher than our estimate and (2) a lag benefit of lower coking coal and power costs. Net income of Rs5.7 bn (-23.8 % yoy) was 45.4% higher than our estimate mainly due to the EBITDA beat and Rs0.7 bn forex gain. Steel realization was flattish at US$702/ton. EBITDA/ton increased 15.3% qoq to US$129.

Strong standalone drives consolidated performance; overall debt increases

JSW reported consolidated EBTIDA of Rs17.3 bn (+31.6% qoq, -8.2% yoy), 18% ahead of our estimate. The US plate mill disappointed again with marginal EBITDA generation and heavier losses. Increase in iron ore prices led to Chilean iron ore mines reporting EBITDA of US$6.6 mn after reporting a loss in 3QFY13. Overall leverage is a concern with net debt before acceptances increasing to Rs195 bn; net debt/ EBITDA stands at 3X on FY2013 and 3.7X on FY2014E numbers.

Management’s FY2014 volume guidance has downside risk

JSW’s guidance indicates 10% growth in crude steel production and steel deliveries to 9.25 mn tons and 9.75 mn tons respectively. JSW’s confidence in steel volumes is predicated on procuring 75-80% out of 24 mn tons of iron ore production (in Karnataka), broken up into (1) 10 mn tons by NMDC, (2) 5 mn and 5 mn tons by Category A and B mines and (3) dumps that have iron ore concentrate equivalent to 4 mn tons. We believe JSW’s iron ore procurement target appears aggressive due to the slow and gradual ramp-up of Category B mines. Procurement prices may stay elevated, which is an additional headwind.

High leverage and expensive valuations drive our SELL rating

Capex plans of Rs90 bn over the next two years means debt is unlikely to decline. Concerns about profitability, iron ore for production, high leverage and expensive valuations leave a lot of scope for downside. We maintain our SELL rating with a 12-month unchanged fair value of Rs585/share.

REDUCE Thermax (TMX)

Industrials MAY 24, 2013 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Negative outlook on broader capex scenario; seeing few large enquiries. TMX Price (Rs): 597 remains cautious on business recovery in FY2014E (hopes for double-digit growth in Target price (Rs): 575 order inflows/execution and stable margin). Its near-term outlook remains very weak BSE-30: 19,674 with few large prospects (still citing Kochi/Reliance with few enquiries in cement, steel and power) and lower visibility on medium-sized prospects. TMX still expects to grow order inflows in FY2014E on small-to-medium-sized and overseas orders.

Company data and valuation summary Thermax Stock data Forecasts/Valuations 2013 2014E 2015E 52-week range (Rs) (high,low) 691-419 EPS (Rs) 26.4 31.6 37.0 Market Cap.

Yield (%) 1.5 1.5 1.8

Company remains cautious on business recovery in FY2014E

` Order inflows to grow double digit at best. Thermax expects modest order inflow growth in FY2014E on (1) no new long opportunities (still citing Kochi, Reliance projects) and (2) lower visibility on medium-sized projects (versus the same time last year). The company is thus banking on (1) small-to-medium-sized orders (renewables, food, pharma) and (2) overseas orders.

` Revenue growth to be constrained by marginally better starting backlog. TMX’s starting backlog has marginally grown 3% yoy (5-6% adjusting for Rs1 bn of orders taken out). It thus hoped for double-digit growth in FY2014E but part of it depends upon short-cycle orders.

` Aims to sustain contribution margin. Post 170 bps increase in FY2013 contribution margin (which compensated for negative operating leverage), TMX aims to sustain the contribution margin in FY2014E (EBITDA margin may decline without support of strong execution).

On-ground feedback continues to be weak for key sectors (not enough enquiries)

The company cited that even inquiries are very weak from key sectors (cement, steel and power). The expectation of recovery in cement in 2H has not played out as the industry still has underutilized capacities (below 85% threshold). Large opportunities are limited to Reliance refinery project (yet to be tendered) and Kochi (recently got tendered). The company remains bearish on power, citing virtually no private-sector project being conceptualized.

Results surprise on strong margin; retain REDUCE on weak capex outlook and high valuations

TMX reported higher-than-expected PAT in 4QFY13 of Rs1.15 bn (13% beat; down 11% yoy) on positive margin surprise (11.4%, up 40 bps yoy) even as top-line declined by 13% yoy. Order inflows also maintained Rs11-12 bn quarterly rate, leading to Rs44 bn backlog (provides limited 0.9X visibility). Working capital increased, though still remains healthy, at 18 days of sales. We marginally revise our consolidated estimates to Rs31.6 and Rs37 from Rs31.4 and Rs38.3 for FY2014-15E. We retain REDUCE rating (TP revised to Rs575 from Rs550) on (1) a weak capex cycle, (2) full valuations (19X FY2014E P/E, 11X EV/EBITDA) and (3) potential margin risks.

Remains cautious on business recovery in FY2014E

` Order inflows to grow double digit at best. The company refrained from giving specific guidance in order inflows although does see double-digit growth as the best case scenario as of now. There are only a couple of large-sized orders in the pipeline and there is also lower visibility on medium-sized projects (versus the same time last year). The company is thus banking on (1) small-to-medium-sized orders (renewables, food, pharma) and (2) overseas orders (value engineering and currency have improved competitiveness), especially in ME (has opened local offices) and SE Asia (demand expected to pick up). Note that company’s full-year order inflows have grown 20% yoy (supported by strong overseas orders) versus mid-teens growth targeted by the company.

` Revenue growth to be constrained by marginally better starting backlog. Thermax has improved its starting backlog marginally by about 3% (5-6% growth accounting for Rs1 bn of orders taken out of backlog). It thus does not expect a significant double-digit growth in FY2014E. Key risks to execution of (1) client-specific delays and (2) tight liquidity would continue to constrain near-term execution. Over a longer 3-year period (2010-13), the company cited EPC contribution coming down (Rs11 bn in FY2013 versus Rs15 bn in FY2010) which has been covered up by increasing contribution from (1) services (Rs6.5 bn+ in FY2013, up 15% yoy), (2) standard products (25%+ growth in FY2013) and (3) renewable. The company expects these segments to support growth even in FY2014E.

` Margin: Aims to maintain at contribution level. The company has been able to broadly maintain overall margin at EBITDA level in FY2013 (10.8% versus 11% in FY2012) on the back of value engineering and other cost reduction focused initiatives as well as declining commodity prices (170 bps yoy increase in FY2013 contribution margin). Incrementally it aims to maintain margin at contribution level (focus is on winning orders). EBITDA margin profile in FY2014E would now depend on revenue growth (else negative operating leverage would drag margin down).

On-ground feedback continues to be weak for key sectors (cement, steel, power)

The company cited that even inquiries are minimal from key sectors of cement, steel and power. Tendering for the Reliance petrochemical project is yet to start while Kochi refinery orders have recently got tendered. Barring these two, there is no other large opportunity coming up. Cement was expected to revive in 2H (players have strong balance sheet and profitability), although weak capacity utilization for major players (lower than consider 85% threshold for new capacities) may further delay fresh investments. Some other opportunities which may come up later on are (1) Bhushan Steel and (2) JSPL (to invest in power if not in steel).

Current capacity can support 25% growth in business

Thermax cited share capacities in most of its segment (projects, EPC, air pollution, water) barring chemicals (full) and chillers (full in India, capacity available in China). It expects current capacity to be capable of supporting 25% business growth and thus does not intend to incur new capacity-related capex in FY2014E (below Rs1 bn primarily used for maintenance capex). It has done a capex of Rs1.2 bn in FY2013 (partly on new Baroda facility).

TBW: Capacity close to commissioning; expects no near-term orders

The 3 GW supercritical boiler facilities (TMX-B&W JV) are now ready although the company does not expect to win orders for the facility in the near future. It cited only 1-2 orders in the pipeline as of now (NLC-3X 660 in UP, Tamil Nadu state project). The company has qualified and would be bidding for both (1) BTG and (2) EPC projects (to be more selective here). It would bid for both modes in consortium although would not be the lead partner in EPC projects.

Subsidiary performance

` Dan stoker reports profit in 4QFY13. Dan stoker has marginally improved its top-line in FY2013 although has reported far superior growth in order inflows (bodes well for FY2014E). The company had earlier reported a loss for one quarter in FY2013 although has returned to positive territory in the fourth quarter. Thermax expects the subsidiary profitability to improve further as it benefits from the recently completed value engineering exercise.

` Chinese power construction subsidiary may remain in losses. In contrast, the Chinese power construction subsidiary continues to be in losses on weak FY2013 business (impacted by election). With the new government now being formed, order inflows have improved in the fourth quarter. The subsidiary, though, is expected to report losses in the near term.

4QFY13 results: Margin surprises positively despite double-digit execution decline

` Double-digit revenue decline continues in 4QFY13 as well, decline broadly spread across both energy and environment segments. Thermax reported 4QFY13 standalone revenues of Rs14.7 bn, registering a 13% yoy decline; broadly in line with our estimate of Rs14.5 bn. For the full-year FY2013, standalone revenues have declined by about 11.6% yoy to Rs47 bn. This decline was expected on the backlog of a lower starting order backlog at the beginning of the FY. The revenue decline was led by both the segments with energy segment revenues declining by 13.7% yoy (to Rs11.4 bn) and environment segment declining 16.9% yoy (to Rs3.5 bn). For the full year, both segments have reported about 12% yoy revenue decline.

` High contribution margin (potentially on favorable mix) offsets negative operating leverage. Thermax reported 4QFY13 EBITDA margin of 11.4%, expanding by about 40 bps yoy (versus our estimate of a 90 bps yoy contraction). The margin expansion was led by the contribution margin which expanded by about 100 bps yoy (possibly on favorable revenue mix with lower contribution from large project revenues as proportion to sales). At the EBIT level, energy segment reported a small 30 bps yoy margin expansion (to 10.5%) while the environment segment margin in fact declined by 120 bps yoy (to 11.8%) in 4QFY13. Note a high non-allocable income of Rs168 mn in the quarter (at Rs61 mn last year) leading to the net EBIT-level margin expansion.

` Higher-than-expected margin leads to PAT-level beat. Higher-than-expected EBITDA margin led to a net PAT of Rs1.15 bn for 4QFY13, about 13% higher than our estimate (of Rs1.02 bn) and down 11% yoy. For the full-year FY2013, Thermax reported a net PAT of Rs3.5 bn, a decline of 14% yoy.

Segmental: Energy holds on to margin; environment margin declines sharply

` Energy—sustains margin despite business contraction. Energy segment sales declined 14% yoy in 4QFY13 to Rs11.4 bn. EBIT margin though was stable sequentially and improved on a yoy basis to 10.5%. Full-year energy sales have also declined yoy (12% drop) while segment margin has been broadly flat at 10.5%.

` Environment—gives away margin with lower business volumes. Environment segment sales declined 17% yoy in 4QFY13 to Rs3.5 bn. EBIT margin has declined 200 bps yoy 11.8%. Full-year energy sales have also declined yoy (12% drop) while segment margin has declined by 190 bps yoy 10.5%.

Working capital deteriorates yoy, though still at low levels of 18 days Thermax working capital deteriorated on a yoy basis though still at relatively low levels of 18 days of sales (from 7 days at end-FY2012; relatively flat sequentially from 15 days at end-1H). This is reflected in higher yoy capital employed in the energy (up 29% yoy to Rs5.4 bn) and environment (up 33% yoy to Rs2.7 bn) segments.

ADD DishTV (DITV)

Media MAY 24, 2013 RESULT, CHANGE IN RECO. Coverage view: Neutral

Weak 4QFY13 on expected lines but operating metrics surprise yet again. Dish Price (Rs): 64 TV reported weak 4QFY13 EBITDA of Rs1.2 bn (-7% yoy, -13% qoq), below our Target price (Rs): 75 expectation; the negative variance resulted from (1) full impact of renewed MediaPro BSE-30: 19,674 deal, (2) weak ARPUs yet again and (3) lower-than-expected rental income. FY2013 performance was robust (+16% yoy subs growth; +18% yoy EBITDA growth). However, trends in operating metrics are either (1) against strategic direction of the company (and industry) or (2) churn policy of the company; we suggest the latter. Retain positive bias (ADD; BUY previously) with FY2014E FV of Rs75 (Rs80 previously); fair valuation at ~10.5X FY2014E EBITDA and ~29X FCF given fair accounting.

Weak 4QFY13 but robust FY2013; reconciling surprising trends in operating metrics

Dish TV’s reported operating metrics include: (1) ARPU growth of 4% yoy, (2) gross adds of 2.2 mn subs in FY2013E, (3) net adds of 1.1 mn subs (implying churn of ~10.5%), (4) SAC of Rs1,996 (-6% yoy) and (5) content cost at 35% of revenues (32% on adjusted basis, excluding ~Rs200 mn prior-period impact of renewed MediaPro deal). The trends in ARPU and churn operating metrics are surprising (also versus industry; see Exhibit 1). The pass-through of hike in pack prices to ARPU (+3% yoy) has been weak (Exhibit 2) and against strategic focus of the company on pricing versus subs (net adds +11% yoy). Churn policy is the differential, in our view. The ARPU trends do not reflect the ramp-up in HD subs over the past 2 years (HD channels launch in FY2012) at high ARPUs (>Rs350 after tax). Addition of ~0.3 mn subs from Phase-I DAS areas (~15% contribution higher versus historic trends) has also not contributed. The company (as well as industry) has also eliminated the free viewing period of subs (versus 3-4 months 2 years back). The company noted sharp down-trading by subs (from premium to base packs) but it has not impacted churn (in fact, improvement in FY2013) despite >50% of subs in base pack and option of analog cable (>70% of subs). Finally, the company has noted increase in subs in 0-120 churn period (suspension rate) from ~0.5 mn to ~1.5 mn over time.

Retain positive bias (ADD with FY2014E FV of Rs75); fair valuations given strong cash flows

Weak 4QFY13 financials, notably moderating growth in subscription revenues and weak traction in carriage + advertising income, result in 5-7% cut in FY2014E-15E EBITDA with FY2014E FV of

Rs75 (Rs80 previously). Retain positive bias (ADD; BUY previously) led by robust growth, cash flow business model and valuations (~10.5X FY2014E EBITDA but more important, ~29X FY2014E FCF).

We highlight that Dish TV has gone through its large investment phase garnering >9 mn subs (adjusted for 0-120 day churn, as above), with continued (moderate) growth in volumes and pricing resulting in robust revenue growth and operating leverage (relatively stable cost structure). Strong cash flows were further supported by (1) negative working capital (pre-paid model of operation) and (2) tax credits (>Rs20 bn of accumulated losses).

` Dish TV reported weak 4QFY13 EBITDA of Rs1.2 bn (-7% yoy, -13% yoy), much below our Rs1.4 bn expectation. The impact of renewed MediaPro deal (including prior period) on content costs (+34% yoy) was in line with expectations. However, subs revenue growth of only 1% qoq and 16% yoy decline in rental income disappoint. The latter is just a factor change in accounting policy for lease rentals by the company at the start of FY2013 and does not have any real (cash) impact. Additionally, carriage + advertising income also declined 16% qoq, below our expectations.

` Dish TV reported 4QFY13 subs revenues of Rs5 bn (+15% yoy but only +1% qoq). Gross subs adds at 0.4 mn were below our 0.6 mn expectation whereas net subs adds at 0.2 mn were above our expectation of 0.1 mn. Consequently, annualized churn rate at ~8% was significantly below our expected ~19%; the company noted win-back of subs from Phase-I DAS areas; we note the company’s limited presence in (Delhi is substantial) for any large visible impact. Dish TV reported ARPU of Rs157/month (+4% yoy, -2% qoq); the company noted reduced number of billing days in 4Q (90 days versus 92 days in 3Q), but ARPU growth disappointed on a yoy basis as well despite positive triggers discussed above (rate hikes, HD, reduced free viewing period).

` Bandwidth (carriage) + advertising revenues declined 24% yoy and 16% qoq. The decline in advertising on a qoq basis is understandable (4Q is weak advertising quarter versus 3Q), but yoy and qoq decline in carriage income surprised.

` Dish TV reported 4QFY13 rental income at Rs320 mn (-37% yoy, -16% qoq), much below expectation. The decline is on account of (1) change in accounting policy at the start of FY2013 (booking of rental income generated from subs over 5 years versus 3 years previously), (2) completion of booking of rental advances from 5-year old subs (rental income of Rs400/annum versus Rs200-300/annum for subs over past 2-3 years) as well as (3) lower accelerated rental booking from subscriber >500 days old, as per the churn recognition policy of Dish TV. The impact of the latter was also seen on depreciation expenses, which declined on a qoq basis.

` Dish TV 4QFY13 SAC at Rs1,996 declined 10% qoq. Reduced 4QFY13 ad spends (the company believes it had done enough marketing activities during 3QFY13 festival season) contributed but the larger impact was from price hikes taken during the quarter. The impact would be further visible in 1QFY14 (price hike in middle of 4QFY13). Dish TV and other DTH players increased entry prices by >Rs300. The decline in SAC is commendable in light of Rupee depreciation yoy and higher customs duty, and is likely to result in faster payback period from new subs. However, DTH is a scale model and 10% yoy decline in gross adds in FY2013 is an area of concern; stable SAC with some more focus on gross adds may be a more balanced approach.

` Dish TV reported incremental gains in gross adds still coming through from Phase-I DAS markets (Delhi-Mumbai) as well as 3-4X increase in gross adds from Phase-II markets in April. The trailing impact of Phase-I DAS was hardly visible in 4QFY13 gross adds. Nonetheless, we highlight a key issue with DTH companies with regard to DAS; given the limited deadlines, it is difficult for DTH companies to increase capacity to match demand (since the additional capacity becomes somewhat redundant after digitization in a city). Thus, we expect gains for DTH companies (in comparison to cable MSOs, where affiliate LCOs manage the seeding of STBs) to be somewhat muted.

` Content and other costs increased 34% yoy and 21% qoq, largely on account of renewed MediaPro deal (including prior-period impact). The company had already taken some provisions on this account in 3QFY13. As per the company, the prior-period impact was ~Rs200 mn (related largely to 2QFY13). 7% inflation in content and other costs in FY2013 was well within the guidance of 10-12%. One benefit of MediaPro deal is that the company has become the leader in HD content.

` The company (and we) expects the content cost as percentage of revenues to stabilize at 30-32%, below 35% in 4QFY13, but in line with 30% reported in FY2013. We agree with this assessment since broadcasters already derive >50% of their subscription revenues from DTH with ~30% share of paying subscribers. The incremental gains for broadcasters need to come from digital, also it’s necessary to bridge the large pricing gap (retail/wholesale) between DTH and digital cable.

` Other costs were largely in line or below our expectation. The company did not feel the need for advertising much in 4QFY13 since the trailing benefit of 3QFY13 festival advertising was available. Employee and overhead expenses were also under control. Distribution expenses were marginally ahead of estimates.

` Net interest expenses increased 65% qoq despite relatively stable net debt (~Rs9.5 bn at end-FY2013). The company is going to pay back ~Rs7.5 bn of debt over the next one year and new credit facilities have resulted in higher finance charges.

` Depreciation expenses increased a modest 7% yoy and declined 15% qoq. The negative variance was largely due to limited accelerated depreciation in 4QFY13 (versus 3QFY13, which likely bore the brunt of recognized churn subs in 2QFY12). Dish TV recognizes churn in financials if a sub has been inactive for >500 days. The reporting of churn in operating metrics happens beyond 120 days.

` Dish TV reported robust free cash flows to firm in FY2013 (~Rs650 mn). However, free cash flows to equity were negative due to large ~Rs9.8 bn of net debt in the balance sheet (net interest expenses of Rs904 mn reported in the P&L but higher interest paid, part of which is capitalized along with fixed assets). As discussed previously, the company will repay ~Rs7.5 bn of gross debt in FY2014E, funded from cash on balance sheet as well as rising free cash flows (expected ~Rs2 bn in FY2014E).

` Dish TV reported a reasonable balance sheet in FY2013. Net debt increased to ~Rs9.8 bn in FY2013 from ~Rs8.7 bn in FY2012, but largely on account of interest payments on the debt itself (as firm operations were FCF-positive). Net current liabilities (given negative working capital) increased to ~Rs6 bn from ~Rs5.4 bn in FY2012. However, ~Rs2.8 bn increase in net fixed assets surprised (and needs to be clarified).

CAUTIOUS Cement

India MAY 24, 2013 UPDATE

BSE-30: 19,674

4QFY13—disappointing on volume and pricing. Cement companies had a disappointing March quarter with volumes dropping by 3% yoy, pricing remaining flat, and production cost (10% yoy) offering no respite. Recent uptick in cement prices coupled with news flows on potential transactions (at rich valuations) have spurred stock performance—though continued earnings risk from lower volumes without valuation comfort prevents us from taking a constructive stance.

Exhibit 1: Cement companies have underperfomed the broader markets in the past 3 months

Source: Bloomberg, Kotak Institutional Equities Volume decline accompanied by weak pricing, profitability erodes with firm cost inflation

Our coverage universe registered a 3% yoy fall in volumes accompanied by weak pricing (3% yoy, -2% qoq). Firm cost-side inflation (10% yoy, -7% qoq) was led by higher freight (11% yoy) and raw material cost (9% yoy), leading to a sharp drop in profitability (-14% yoy, 5% qoq). We currently factor a less onerous cost inflation accruing benefits of low imported coal prices and moderated increase in railway freight; continued weakness in cement volumes could put to risk our earnings assumptions.

Spurt of price increases over the last week, partially rolls back sharp decline over the recent past

Cement prices in South India have increased by Rs10-40/bag over the past week. A similar spurt has been seen in markets outside of South as well—North (Rs10-35/bag) and East (Rs20-30/bag).

The current price increase partially rolls back the sharp decline in cement prices seen over the past few months, and offers some cushion to our price assumption. We do not also rule out industries’ ability to absorb the current price hike in the absence of demand, as has been seen in the recent past.

Price increase and potential transactions spurred stock performance

Recent stock performance was spurred by price increases announced over the week as well as acquisitions at potentially rich valuations (>US$150/ton). We highlight that continued weakness in volumes (-4% yoy) and price volatility could still put to risk our modest earnings assumptions—

7-10% revenue growth in CY2013E/FY2014E. Valuations being the benchmark for a largely homogenous business profile among coverage companies, we prefer Grasim Industries (5X EV/EBITDA) over UltraTech (9X EV/EBITDA), ACC (8X EV/EBITDA) and Ambuja (9X EV/EBITDA).

Potential deals could spark off re-rating of multiples

Capital markets have been abuzz with potential deals in the cement sector—aside from the recently concluded equity infusion by Barings in Lafarge’s India business, the Street continues to speculate on potential stake sale by Jaiprakash and Heidelberg. Interestingly, these deals are being speculated to be at significant premiums (see Exhibit 5) to current trading multiples/replacement cost. We do not rule out incremental safeguards/covenants for private equity stake sale that we are not privy to, and may have influenced the valuation of stake sale.

COMPAT order gives a breather, extends stay on payment of penalties

The Competition Appellate Tribunal (COMPAT) upheld the stay on imposition of penalties— restricting them to 10% payment within the next month, but has raised fresh questions on the adjudicatory (and penalty imposing) powers of the Competition Commission of India (CCI).

The grounds of argument brought out by cement companies before the COMPAT—denial of cross examination, chairman’s absence in oral hearing and procedural defects—have not found acceptance by COMPAT. However, raising concerns on the right of CCI to impose penalties, although clearly specified in the Competition Act, point towards a more prolonged judicial process.
