Valu(b)e and valu(be)able lessons from Castrol India stock. Investors may want to take cognizance of the flat performance of Castrol India stock over the past five years, understand the reasons for the stock’s de-rating over the past 2-3 years and see if certain expensive stocks in the branded and semi-branded categories can face a similar situation. In particular, we see two massive disruptions for branded and semi-branded products in the form of ‘standardization’ and ‘formalization’.

Castrol India: A case of price-value proposition becoming too skewed perhaps? QUICK NUMBERS

We wonder if Castrol stretched the price-value proposition too much over the past few years,  Castrol stock has de- which allowed other players in a semi-branded space to offer better price-value proposition. rated from 40-45X Castrol’s volumes have been stagnant for the past several years (see Exhibit 1 for volume data forward P/E to 20- for CY2012-17 and 1HCY18); better-quality lubes and engines may have also contributed to 25X forward P/E longer ‘drain’ times. Castrol’s realizations went up moderately over the same period despite a sharp decline in raw material (base oil) prices (see Exhibit 2), which led to a sharp increase in  Gross contribution is profitability (see Exhibit 3 for contribution/liter and EBITDA/liter). up to `88/liter in 1HCY18 from Or a case of market’s concerns about disruption from electric vehicles and terminal value? `64/liter in CY2012 The severe de-rating of Castrol stock (see Exhibit 4 for 12-month forward multiple) may reflect  Quarterly volumes the market’s concerns about eventual uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) and consequent lower usage of lubes as the share of EVs in total vehicle population (stock of vehicles) reaches a stagnant at around sizeable figure. In other words, this raises questions about the terminal value of the business in 50 mn liters over a ‘disrupted’ future. Exhibit 5 summarizes possible sources of disruption in the future (see our CY2012-1HCY18 April 12, 2018 report titled Disruption ahead on disruption across sectors for more details).

Price-value gap can close in several categories through new competition, standardization

Investors may want to review the business moats of companies in the context of their products (gap between price and value) and business models. In our view, ‘standardization’ will be a powerful disruption theme. If consumers were to have confidence about the basic quality of a product, the gap between price and value may close dramatically through (1) acceptance of new products with lower price points with similar value and/or (2) down-trading to products that may offer better price-value proposition. Semi-branded businesses (building components for example) will be first to see the disruption from ‘standardization’ of products. Private labels of organized players (e-commerce and physical) may even disrupt the stranglehold of FMCG companies, a possible outcome of ‘formalization’ of retailing in India. Sanjeev Prasad

The higher the P/E, the more one should worry about terminal value

A high P/E of a stock reflects the market’s confidence about strong growth in cash flows of the Anindya Bhowmik company for a very long period of time (and terminal value), which in turn reflects very high confidence in the business models of companies and their ability to withstand disruption (many Sunita Baldawa of which may be even unknown now). We can only marvel at the confidence of investors about certain stocks (looking at the high P/Es or P/Bs of so many stocks these days). Exhibit 6 provides a sample list while Exhibits 7-8 show the expansion in gross and EBITDA margins of automobile and consumer staple stocks over the few years.

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 7 BUY (SBIN) Banks AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Attractive

NPL reversal cycle takes shape. SBI reported a loss for the quarter led by high Price (`): 304 provisions for investments but the key takeaway of the result would be the decline in Target price (`): 370 NPLs as the resolution cycle seems to be finally getting reflected in headline ratios. As BSE-30: 37,869 several large NPLs are seeing a change of ownership, it would not be surprising if there is an acceleration in this decline of NPLs from here. We believe that the upside is quite attractive to maintain our positive view; our top pick in PSUs (TP unchanged).

Revenues grew 11% yoy despite a solid NII provision coverage growth of 24% yoy primarily on account of weak fee income growth and losses in the treasury book. The bank also made higher provisions for investment depreciation (fully accounted in (w/o) at ~70% 1QFY19) as well as made provisions for retirement/impending wage settlement cycle. NIM  Maintain BUY rating improved 30 bps qoq to 2.8% aided by recovery from NPLs. Cost-income ratio was high at with TP at `370 ~58% primarily on account of provisions for employees. Loans grew 4% yoy while deposits (unchanged) grew 6% yoy. CASA ratio was healthy at 45% and there is no negative impact of the merger.

The much-awaited recovery in NPLs has begun to take shape; coverage moves closer to 70%

After a few years, SBI saw some a healthy decline in gross NPLs as the resolution of a couple of NCLT cases took shape. Gross NPLs declined 5% yoy while net NPLs declined 11% qoq on absolute basis. Provision coverage ratio has moved to ~70% while calculated coverage is at 53%. This is important as we believe that the ability to take haircuts on loans has significantly improved. Of the overall slippages of 3% of loans, 35% came from existing accounts (LC default), 25% came from the corporate loans and the rest has come from retail and agriculture. There has been a reduction of 30% in the NCLT 1 exposure. 2QFY19 would be an important quarter, which is likely to see significant reductions in NPLs as more cases get completed. The management has guided for 2% fresh slippages and 2% credit costs for FY2019, which M B Mahesh CFA appears to be achievable and negative surprises are likely to be quite limited. Incremental risk from power sector appears to be quite limited given that 60% of the non-watch-list sector is in the public sector. Of the private sector, ~10% is BB and below portfolio indicating that the Nischint Chawathe negative surprise is likely to be low.

Maintain BUY: all conditions in place for a re-rating as NPLs on positive downward trajectory Dipanjan Ghosh

We maintain BUY rating on SBI with a TP of ₹370 (unchanged) valuing the bank at 1.3X book and 7X March 2020E EPS for RoEs in the range of ~15% in the medium term. Our broad thesis on the bank remains unchanged as it remains our preferred idea among public banks. We expect the stock to re-rate as we believe the bank has begun a positive journey on the NPL resolution cycle. This is likely to be followed by operating profit growth and recovery in RoEs.

91% of corporate slippages from the watch-list

 Slippages dropped 360 bps qoq and 320 bps yoy to 3.2%. Calculated slippages dropped in 1QY19 on the back of decrease in slippages from the corporate book. Only 25% of the slippages were from the corporate book (worth `37 bn). Out of the total corporate slippages, ~91% of the slippages were from the watch-list. The rest of the slippages were from retail, agriculture and SME portfolios. Agriculture slippages increased primarily on the back of stress in asset quality in the states of and Karnataka.

 ~90% of slippages from corporate book. SBI reported `328 bn slippages of which nearly 90% came from corporate accounts and the rest was spread out from SME, agriculture and retail. Around 60% of the corporate slippages were from the pre-defined stressed loans. SBI has recognized all SDR loans as NPL. Sectoral break-up within corporate slippages was power (13%), roads (8%), iron and steel (1%) and others (78%).

 Unrecognized stress of 1.3% of loans. SBI disclosed a watch-list of `246 bn, a potential source of incremental slippages from the corporate book. This watch-list includes all corporate SMA-2 and SMA-1 accounts. Power sector is about 41%, iron and steel is 14%, textiles is 2% and others is 33% (including roads, EPC construction and others), excluding accounts under SMA-1 and SMA-2 which were previously not classified under the watch-list.

 63% coverage on NCLT accounts. SBI has `630 bn exposure to NCLT accounts in the two lists with the comfortable combined coverage ratio of 71%. These accounts comprise nearly ~30% of the outstanding gross NPL for the bank. SBI expects 52% haircut on NCLT-1 accounts. Two accounts under NCLT-1 were resolved in 1QFY19 with recoveries amounting to 73.5% and 52.3%.

 High stress recognition in key sectors. Power sector NPL is around 18% and around 6% as part of the watch-list. Adjusting for exposure to PSU entities in stress loans in power is around ~38%.

 Retail GNPL up 8 bps qoq; agri NPLs increase 35 bps qoq. The bank has delivered qoq improvement in NPL ratios in SME (9.1% NPL; down 42 bps qoq) whereas agri (11.6% NPL; up 35 bps qoq) and retail (1.3% NPL; up 8 bps qoq) portfolios have seen deterioration. Management is confident of improving asset quality in the retail segment.

 We project slippages of 2.5% in FY2019E and declining to 1.0% slippages by FY2021E. GNPL will moderate to 5.5% by FY2021E from ~11% in FY2018.

Net advances muted at 4% yoy

 Overall loan growth (net) was muted at 4% yoy driven by low growth in the corporate book even as retail maintained robust growth. On gross basis, retail loans saw robust increase at 14% yoy. SME growth stood at 7% yoy. Overall growth in the corporate book continued to be low at 4% yoy (mid corporate loans dropped 3% yoy and top corporate loan increased 10% yoy). There was 1% yoy decline in the agriculture portfolio. The bank has moved some of its international loan exposure to its UK subsidiary which was recently formed by the bank.

 Retail segment constitutes ~28% of the loan book (up 40 bps qoq). Corporate book comprises 35% of loan book (down 100 bps qoq). The bank will look at maintaining the share of corporate book in 36-40% range based on the opportunities in the corporate segment.

 The bank remains cautious in lending to SME and the mid corporate portfolio after witnessing high levels of stress from these segments. Within retail, growth in the housing loans remains moderate at 13% yoy. Auto loans grew by 12% yoy. The growth in other retail loan picked pace, up 17% yoy.

 We are building 10% loan CAGR over FY20180-21E (growth to remain low at 7% yoy in FY2019E) in the medium term as we don’t think the growth will be sufficient to replace the repayment cycle of the loans taken in the previous capex cycle.

Lower interest reversals and interest recognition from resolved NCLT account drive NIM improvement

Calculated NIM improved 20 bps qoq to 2.9% in 1QFY19. Margins improved on the back of improvement in yields in 1QFY19. Calculated yields increased 80 bps qoq to 7.7% on the back of interest recognition from one resolved account under NCLT list 1 and lower interest reversals qoq. Adjusting for the one time interest gains, NIM was up 40 bps qoq to 7.3%. Reported domestic NIM improved 30 bps qoq to 3%. There was additional benefit from cost of funds (reported) which declined 20 bps qoq to 5.2%. Incrementally margins will get support from improvement in CD ratio (~70% now), lower competition from alternative channels like CP, NCDs due to rising bond prices and lower slippages. There will, however, be marginal drag from change in loan mix towards higher share of low-yielding retail products. We forecast NIM (calculated) to improve 35 bps over FY2018-21E to 3%.

Reported CASA ratio at 45%

CASA ratio stood at 45% in 1QFY19 (up 70 bps yoy). SA growth improved to 9% yoy while CA dropped 1% yoy. The bank has benefitted from higher average balances in savings accounts post demonetization, greater traction in corporate salary packages and new current accounts. We forecast 7% CASA CAGR over FY2018-21E and stable CASA ratio of 45% in medium term.

Incremental provisions for gratuity liabilities and wage revision lead to elevated cost ratios

 Overall operating expenses growth was high at 20% yoy, led by 26% yoy growth in staff cost and 13% yoy rise in non-staff expenses. Bank has utilized the dispensation to spread out the impact of change in gratuity amounts over four quarters, i.e. `9 bn out of `36 bn impact has been booked in 1QFY19 and rest (`18 bn) will spread over next two quarters. Additionally the bank made provisions worth `10 bn towards arrears for wage revision effective from November 2017. Adjusting the impact of the above, employee expense growth was muted at 1% yoy.

 The bank will see the benefit of higher retirements and branch rationalization – there was 5% yoy decline in employee strength and 7% yoy decline in branches. The bank is benefitting from retirements at the higher salary levels and fresh recruitments at lower salaries. We think this would be a long term gains that they are likely to see considering the declining age of the bank’s employee base. Average age of staff at associate banks is lower than the parent bank.

 We believe that the cost growth is a sustainable advantage for the bank. The management has indicated that it would like to keep growth in physical and human infrastructure at minimum levels. Further, it would look to reduce other non-staff costs though it may not be as material as what we have seen recently. We expect 6% CAGR in operating expenses over FY2018-21E.

Drop in treasury gains drags non-interest income

 Non-interest income dropped 17% yoy driven by decline in treasury gains (down 1.7X yoy). Growth across other categories such as miscellaneous income (up 2.7X yoy) and recovery in written-off accounts (2.4X yoy) supported overall other income. Fee income growth was muted at 2% yoy in 1QFY19.

 Within overall fee income, loan processing fees dropped 2% yoy, reflecting the pressure on corporate fees while miscellaneous fees (collections, locker, etc.) dropped 11% yoy. Cross-sell fee growth was ~31% yoy on low base.

22 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH ADD Coal India (COAL) Metals & Mining AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Attractive

Strong performance. Coal India reported strong earnings performance with PAT of Price (`): 276 `38 bn (+61% yoy) handsomely beating our estimates of `30 bn. The performance is Target price (`): 326 supported by 11.7% yoy growth in volumes and 9.9% yoy growth in blended BSE-30: 37,869 realizations, despite the 19% yoy growth in wage cost (1QFY18 had no wage provisions). CIL’s earnings performance over the past two years was bogged down by wage provisions without compensating for price increases. Maintain ADD rating with a target price of `326/share.

Yield (%) 6.0 7.2 9.1

All guns blazing: double-digit growth in volumes and realizations, contained wage cost

CIL has had a strong earnings show with double-digit growth in volumes (+11.7% yoy) and realizations (+9.9% yoy) leading to 23% yoy growth in revenues. Volume growth for the quarter stood at 11.7% yoy, while blended realizations improved 9.9% yoy to `1,472/ton. The improvement in realizations is visible across raw coal realizations (+9.3% yoy) as well as e-auction realizations (+51% yoy). Earnings performance should also be seen in the context of 19% yoy growth in employee cost to `96 bn. We note the provision for employee wage revision commenced from 2QFY18. The sequential drop in employee cost (and improvement in overall earnings) should be seen in the context of one-time provision for gratuities payment of `70 bn in 4QFY18.

Other income includes the levy of evacuation charge at `50/ton. The earnings performance was also aided by all-round cost containment with a reduction in power and fuel as well as stores consumption. We would seek clarity on composite production (coal + overburden) to get a better sense of the lower cost of production.

Strong volume trends continue in July 2018 as well, case for volume upgrade

Coal India reported 8.8% yoy growth in coal dispatches at 48.3 mn tons in July 2018 with all subsidiaries reporting positive volume growth, despite a strong base of 44.3 mn tons (+6.9% yoy) in July 2017. Rising power demand and improving utilizations could keep coal volumes healthy, with YTD volume growth of 11% tracking well ahead of our estimate of 3% growth.

Improved pricing and volume profile augurs well for earnings Murtuza Arsiwalla

Coal India’s earnings, which have been plagued by (1) increase in wage revisions and (2) grade slippages for coal, will likely see an improvement in realizations on the back of an increase in Samrat Verma notified coal prices as well as evacuation charge of ₹50/ton (in December 2017). Strong e- auction realizations coupled with improved power demand, will also aid topline performance. We maintain our rating ADD with a target price of `326/share. Our positive stance is backed by continued improvement in top-line performance, and limited cost-side shocks hereon. We will review our estimates post the analyst meet.

Key highlights of 1QFY19 results

 Volumes grow 11.7% yoy. Coal India reported 1QFY19 sales volumes of 153 mn tons, a growth of 11.7% yoy. We currently factor 3% yoy growth for full-year FY2019, though we highlight that 11% YTD growth (upto July 2018) makes a case for upgrade in our volume estimates. We do highlight that improving power demand as well as low inventory levels at power plants pose an upside risk to volume growth targets. Further, rising prices of imported coal as well as ban on usage of petcoke for captive power plants could also see improved off-take from industrial users.

 Blended realizations improve 10% yoy. CIL reported blended realizations of `1,472/ton in 1QFY19 (+9.9% yoy) compared to `1,339/ton in 1QFY18. Further, the improvement in realizations excludes the `7.6 bn (`50/ton) accounted for evacuation facility charge under other operating income. FSA realizations improved 9.3% yoy to `1,313/ton. However, a strong 51% yoy improvement in e-auction prices to `2,399/ton was the key contributor to improved earnings performance.

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 27 BUY GAIL (India) (GAIL) Energy AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Attractive Boon from bane. GAIL’s 1QFY19 results were well above our expectations, boosted by Price (`): 363 robust performance of the gas marketing and petrochemical businesses, both benefiting from relatively low-cost US LNG. We raise estimates by 4-5%, even while assuming Target price (`): 440 moderation of current LNG arbitrage. We reiterate BUY with a revised TP of `440 (`410 BSE-30: 37,869 earlier), expecting benefits from (1) higher regulated tariffs, (2) favorable crude and LNG prices and (3) inclusion of gas under GST, a major positive. Company data and valuation summary GAIL (India) Stock data Forecasts/Valuations 2018 2019E 2020E 52-week range (Rs) (high,low) 392-267 EPS (Rs) 20.4 26.1 28.7 Market Cap.

Yield (%) 2.0 2.3 2.6

Results boosted by strong gas marketing and petchem profits amid favorable US LNG prices GAIL reported a 29% jump in EBITDA to `22.4 bn in 1QFY19 driven by (1) higher contribution from gas marketing reflecting higher-than-expected margins on the US LNG volumes and (2) improvement in petchem profitability amid higher realizations and lower input gas cost. Adjusted net income increased by 45% yoy to `12.6 bn (EPS of `5.6), 23% above our estimate.  Steady gas transmission EBIT. Gas transmission revenues increased by 3% qoq to `13.1 bn, led by a 1% sequential increase in volumes to 107 mcm/d and blended tariffs to `1.35/scm. EBIT declined 1% qoq to `7 bn, reflecting modestly higher operating costs and depreciation.  Sharply higher gas marketing EBIT post ramp-up of US LNG supply. Gas marketing EBIT increased sharply to `5.5 bn as compared to a quarterly run-rate of ~`3 bn, reflecting higher margins for US LNG volumes. Higher margins reflect a combination of (1) mark-ups on GAIL’s well-hedged overseas LNG placement and (2) positive arbitrage between US LNG and crude-linked contracts amid rising oil prices. Gas sales increased to 97.2 mcm/d.  Robust improvement in petchem EBIT. Petchem EBIT increased sharply to `2.1 bn, well above our expectations, with a 13% qoq decline in volumes to 166 ktons more than offset by a 13% qoq increase in realizations to `97/kg and sequential decline in input LNG prices. The company attributed lower volumes to the unplanned diversion of gas to fertilizer units and higher profitability to a reduction in discount on its realizations for PATA II volumes.  Expected sequential decline in LPG/LHC EBIT. LPG/LHC segment EBIT declined 19% qoq to `5.3 bn (flat yoy), amid 8% lower realizations and a 3% fall in volumes to 314 ktons. Favorable crude/LNG prices, higher regulated tariffs and inclusion of gas in GST augurs well Elevated spot crude/LNG prices in the near term may continue to boost profits for GAIL’s LNG portfolio. The imminent upward revision in regulated tariffs for GAIL’s key pipelines and adoption of unified tariffs will structurally improve contribution from gas transmission business. The potential inclusion of gas under GST will enhance profitability for the LPG, petchem and transmission segments by removal of irrecoverable state VAT on input gas, which may Tarun Lakhotia incrementally contribute ~Rs2.4 (+8%) to GAIL’s FY2020E EPS. Raise estimates by 4-5%; reiterate BUY with the stock trading at 12X core-business EPS Akshay Bhor We raise EPS to `26.1 (+4%) in FY2019E and `28.7 (+5%) in FY2020E factoring in (1) higher petchem contribution, (2) higher gas marketing margins and (3) other minor changes. Our reverse valuation exercise implies that the stock is trading at attractive 12X core-business EPS on an FY2019 basis, adjusted for the value of investments—our FY2019 EPS does not include any material increase in regulated tariffs or any benefits from the inclusion of gas under GST.

34 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH BUY Hindalco Industries (HNDL) Metals & Mining AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Attractive Aluminum earnings improve. Hindalco’s India EBITDA increased 15% qoq to `18.5 bn Price (`): 223 (+28% yoy), broadly in line with our estimate. The earnings improvement was led by a 24% qoq increase in aluminum EBITDA/ton to US$760, led by higher prices, flat costs, Target price (`): 305 gains on lower INR/US$ rate and lesser drag from unfavorable hedges. Our positive view BSE-30: 37,869 on the stock is underpinned by falling global inventories and improving fundamentals— the stock trades at <5 FY2020E EBITDA even on assuming subdued aluminum prices.

The earnings improvement was led by (1) increase in aluminum EBITDA by 21% qoq to `15.3 bn (+31% yoy), and (2) marginal increase in copper EBITDA to `3.4 bn (+4% yoy, +2% qoq) due to a maintenance shutdown. We note that standalone EBITDA of `13.2 bn (+15% yoy, +5% qoq) was lower than our estimate of `15.5 bn largely due to higher transfer prices at Utkal alumina. Accordingly, EBITDA for Utkal Alumina increased by 51% qoq to `5.2 bn (+79% yoy), per our estimate. The increase in aluminum earnings was despite a 7% qoq decline in sales volumes to 300,000 tons (flat yoy) due to material stuck in port and lower sales booked at the end of the quarter due to adoption of the Ind-AS revenue recognition standard. We estimate aluminum EBITDA/ton improved by 24% qoq to US$760 led by (1) improvement in aluminum prices by 3% qoq, (2) steady production costs (in INR terms), (3) lower INR/US$ rate (-4% qoq which aids revenues), and (4) marginal relief from hedging losses when compared to the last quarter. The net income including Utkal increased 19% qoq to `7.3 bn (+101% yoy).

Aluminum production costs to remain steady; downstream operations to aid margins The management expects aluminum production costs to see an increase of 3-4% qoq in 2QFY19, led by higher coal costs and furnace oil prices. However, increased sales volumes should aid earnings from 2Q—we note that sales volumes for copper also declined by 24% qoq to 82,000 tons due to maintenance shutdown, besides lower aluminum sales. The improvement in downstream products will aid earnings as well—copper rod production increased by 24,000 tons qoq to 61,000 tons in 1QFY19, led by the commissioning of another copper rod plant-3 in 4QFY18. The company plans to sell 250,000-270,000 tons of copper rods Abhishek Poddar in FY2019E, up from 150,000 tons in FY2018. This will also help EBITDA as incremental sales will be directed in domestic markets versus exports where realization is higher by close to US$200/ton. Samrat Verma We maintain our BUY rating with unchanged TP of `305 Our positive view on the stock is led by improving aluminum fundamentals from widening deficit in aluminum markets outside, falling inventories and the expectation of restricted output growth in China. We maintain our BUY rating with an unchanged TP of `305. The stock is inexpensive at <5X FY2020E EBITDA even on assumed subdued aluminum prices.

Changes in our estimate

Exhibit 9 highlights key changes in our estimates.

We raise our Novelis EBITDA estimate by 1% to US$1.28 bn, US$1.33 bn and US$1.36 bn for FY2019E, FY2020E and FY2021E on improved metal spreads and better earnings performance in Asia region. This results in a 1% increase in our consolidated EBITDA estimate to `159 bn, `168 bn and `175 bn for FY2019E, FY2020E and FY2021E.

Our EPS estimate increases by 1% to `27.4, `31.1 and `34.2 for FY2019E, FY2020E and FY2021E.

We estimate consolidated adjusted EBITDA for 1QFY19 at 40.6 bn and EPS at `6.5.

Utkal EBITDA increases to `5.2 bn on higher alumina transfer price

Utkal Alumina EBITDA increased by 51% qoq to `5.2 bn in 1QFY19, as per our estimate. The improvement was led by the higher transfer pricing of alumina to standalone operations (Mahan and Aditya smelters). The company’s alumina transfer price increased to US$527/ton from US$445/ton in 4QFY18. We note that the company changed its policy for transfer pricing from Q-1 (essentially at benchmark prices of previous quarter) to M-1 (essentially at benchmark prices of previous quarter). This led to earnings at Utkal beating our estimate and lower standalone earnings.

Net debt increases to `420 bn led by forex translation impact

Hindalco’s consolidated net-debt increased to `420 bn in June 2019 from `393 bn in March 2018 due to forex impact—the 4% decline in INR/US$ rate led to higher debt in Rupee terms for Novelis debt (close to US$3.6 bn of net-debt). The company stated that net- debt/EBIDTA declined to 2.57X from 2.67X in March 2018.

Hindalco’s net-debt/EBITDA was 2.8X in March 2018 (trailing) as the company’s balance has de-levered by close to `150 bn in the past two years. Post the Aleris acquisition, we expect the pro-forma consolidated net-debt/EBITDA to increase initially to 3.7X based on FY2018 financials due to the acquisition, and then decline to 3.1X/2.5X over FY2020E (Exhibit 6).

We highlight that HNDL continues to earn strong FCF due to its low-cost operations even on LME aluminum price assumption of US$2,075-2,150/ton.

Other highlights from the results

 Copper—EBIDTA improves despite shutdown. Copper volumes declined 26% yoy to 81,000 tons (-22% qoq) due to a maintenance shutdown. Despite lower volumes, the copper EBITDA increased 2% qoq to `3.35 bn (+4% yoy) aided by improved profitability from by-products including DAP and sulphuric acid.

 Aluminum production cost to increase by 3% in 2Q. As per the management, the company’s aluminum production cost was flat qoq in 1QFY19 but they expect cost to increase by 3-4% qoq in 2QFY19 due to the increase in coal, furnace oil costs. There was some relief in the fixed costs in 1QFY19—the management highlighted that for SG&A costs, 4Q tends to have highest charge and 1Q the lowest. The company’s coal sourcing mix includes 15% coal from captive mines, 60% from linkage and balance from e- auctions.

 Aluminum hedged for rest of FY2019E. The hedging loss for the quarter was `1.8 bn compared to `1.98 bn in 4QFY19. In FY2019E, the balance hedge positions in aluminum are (1) about 27-28% of the balance aluminum volumes at the average prices of `1,40,000/ton—this includes impact of INR/US$ hedge as well, and (2) about 11% of its volumes US$2,274/ton—this is only a commodity hedge (has not hedged INR/US$ rate).

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 37 Metals & Mining Hindalco Industries

We note that the management had earlier highlighted that its hedging policy is also to cover their cost base. They want to keep the hedging quantity at an even keel and do not want to speculate on prices by increasing the hedges significantly.

 Value-added product volumes to improve. The company commissioned a continuous cast rod plant-3 in 4QFY18, which increases capacity by 200 ktpa which should aid improvement in FY2019E volumes by close to 90,000 -100,000 tons. As per the management, an additional US$200/ton of EBITDA is earned on the conversion of copper cathode to rods.

 Capex guidance for India. The company expects FY2019E capex for India at `15 bn (from `11 bn in FY2018)—this includes sustenance capex of `8-9 bn and balance `6 bn towards downstream capacity expansion, Utkal alumina expansion. Capex at Novelis will be close to US$450 mn.

ARBP’s 1QFY19 revenues were ~3% ahead of estimates, Price (`): 610 with US growing US$10 mn qoq and EU growth at 30%. One-off provisions of `0.9-1.0 bn constricted gross margins by 364 bps qoq, however, adjusting for the provisions, gross Target price (`): 640 margins and EBITDA were in line with estimates.

Strong on revenues; one-off provisions impact profitability ARBP’s 4QFY18 revenues increased 16% yoy, ~3% ahead of our estimates, driven by 30% yoy growth in the EU (+18% versus KIE) and RoW markets (+32% yoy, +15% versus KIE). Its US business generated revenues of US$282 mn, growing US$10 mn qoq, US$13 mn lower than our estimates, though, adjusting for Ertapenem launch (booked in 2QFY19), the miss was lower at US$8 mn. Oral formulations grew US$5-7 mn qoq while Natrol contributed to the balance, with Injectables disappointing marginally with flat revenues (US$36 mn). ARV segment continued to slide, declining 36% yoy (+6% versus KIE). However, gross margins disappointed, declining 364bps (-440bps versus KIE), due to `0.9-1 bn of one-off provisioning for past product recalls and shelf stock movements, adjusting for which, gross margins were in line with our estimates. Despite 11% lower R&D, EBITDA missed by 11% due to the gross margin miss, though, adjusted for provisions, EBITDA and PAT were in line with our estimates. ARBP generated negative US$33 mn FCF, due to US$70 mn capex and US$63 mn working capital, with 50% of working capital investments in finished goods inventory to prepare for upcoming US$100 mn new buying orders (NBO) that are likely to come up in FY2019. Consequently, net debt increased to US$570 mn, with the management guiding for US$100 mn reduction in net debt in FY2019, excluding Apotex acquisition. Strong pipeline for FY2019 positions ARBP for growth The steady US injectables performance was encouraging in the backdrop of discontinuation of the bag line in 4QFY18. We forecast US injectables to grow to US$202 mn in FY2019 from US$155 mn in FY2018, which implies a significant improvement from 2QFY19. This is largely driven by our expectations of a steady base business and contributions from ertapenem (launched) and vancomycin (2HFY19). Notably, our estimates do not include cyclophosphamide RTU (1HFY19 approval), which we believe can be a sizeable (>US$25 mn annualized), long- tailed opportunity. We expect omeprazole OTC (launched in June 2018), Welchol (2QFY19), Chirag Talati, CFA Prevacid ODT (1HFY19) and Toprol-XL (1HFY19) to help maintain the momentum in US launches. We believe ARBP is also well positioned to gain volumes in the US where the management expects US$100 mn worth of NBO’s in FY2019 and is well placed to capitalize on Kumar Gaurav any disruptions in US orals (e.g. valsartan). Valuations comforting - ADD We cut our FY2019 EPS by ~7% to take into account 1QFY19 one-offs, though, we raise our FY2020/21E EPS by 4% and 9% respectively. ARBP trades at 12.5X FY2020E EPS and 8X FY2020E EV/EBITDA. ADD.

Changing track. DLF reported sales of Rs6 bn, marking the third straight quarter of Price (`): 197 healthy sales, with collections of Rs8.1 bn during 1QFY19, even as land payments led to Target price (`): - a cash outflow of Rs7.2 bn. The lease property business (DCCDL) is maintaining BSE-30: 37,869 consistent net income of Rs10 bn. The change of strategy to sell completed units will likely lead to a period of consolidation, as the current inventory is sold and depleted and new inventory will take a period of 4-5 years to build. Our rating on DLF remains suspended as associated company is engaged in an advisory role to the company.

Cash flows—breaking even on an operational basis, new investments lead to increase in debt

DLF net cash inflow during the quarter was at Rs9.4 bn comprising cash inflows of Rs8.1 bn from residential sales and Rs1.3 bn from DLF’s own annuity portfolio. Operational cash outflow of Rs9.7 bn comprised Rs3.9 bn towards construction expenses, Rs2.2 bn towards finance cost and the balance towards taxes and corporate overheads. However, capex payments towards land acquisition led to capex of Rs7.5 bn. Management highlighted that acquisition of HSIDC and MRC land parcels were strategic due to proximity to extant land parcels and the company is not getting into land acquisition mode. DLF is in fact looking to rope in financial partners for balance land payments.

The management highlighted outstanding receivables of Rs30 bn (for sales made) against which construction costs of Rs20 bn are yet to be incurred and inventory of Rs135 bn that will likely support cash flows over the next few years. DLF currently has net debt of Rs71.2 bn and is targeting to become a zero debt company through equity infusion from the promoters (Rs22.5 bn) and potential equity raise through a QIP of 173 mn shares.

Sales metrics remain healthy for third straight quarter

DLF had net sales of Rs6 bn during the quarter, in line with the company’s guidance to achieve fresh sales of Rs20-22 bn during/for FY2019. As per management, DLF’s phase 5 projects Camillia and Crest contributed Rs4.5 bn to the total sales. DLF currently has Rs135 bn of unsold inventory—Rs60 bn in DLF Phase 5, Rs40 bn in rest of Gurgaon and Rs35 bn in the rest of India. The company intends to sell this inventory over the next 5-6 years even while developing new Murtuza Arsiwalla inventory in a time frame/span of 3-4 years. Annuity income (ex-DCCDL) was at Rs1.35 bn in 1QFY19. Of the ongoing Chennai SEZ projects, 0.43 mn sq. ft has been handed over to DAPL while the remaining 1.1 mn sq.ft is to be developed by 4QFY19. DLF currently has 6 mn sq. ft Samrat Verma under construction.

DCCDL—steady rentals, completion of projects will further boost annuities

DCCDL (jointly held by DLF and GIC) reported revenues of Rs9.8 bn, EBITDA of Rs6.8 bn and PAT of Rs3.6 bn in 1QFY19. The company leased 0.14 mn sq. ft during the quarter. DCCDL has an additional area of 3.7 mn sq. ft is currently under construction. DCCDL currently has net debt of Rs162 bn.

Impact of Ind-AS 115—revenue reversal of Rs140 bn

DLF has adopted Ind-AS 115 and moved to a project completion method of accounting, resulting in a reversal of revenues of Rs140 bn with a reversal of net worth of Rs54 bn. Essentially, revenue recognition of the last 2-3 years has been reversed during the quarter and will likely accrue over the next two years as these projects get completed and are handed over to buyers. Accordingly, forecasted earnings over the next 2-3 years cannot be compared to the earnings trajectory over the last 2-3 years. Our earnings model now reflects the change resulting in change in estimates for FY2019 and FY2020 to Rs5.3 (from Rs6.5) and Rs22.5 (from Rs3.9).

52 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH SELL Indraprastha Gas (IGL) Energy AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Attractive

Weak margins offset volume growth; limited success in CGD round. IGL reported Price (`): 300 modest 3-5% increase in EBITDA and adjusted net income, as robust 13% growth in Target price (`): 240 volumes was offset by weaker unit margins. IGL has won only one CGD licence area out BSE-30: 37,869 of its 11 bids; results for two are still pending. The rise in participation and now success of oil PSUs and private companies in the recent CGD bidding round, raise concerns of competition for the existing players in the long run. Reiterate SELL with a TP of `240.

3-5% increase in EBITDA and net income despite robust 13% growth in volumes IGL’s adjusted EBITDA and net income were 4-5% below our estimates at `2.95 bn and `1.76 bn, respectively, as modestly higher-than-expected 13% growth in volumes to 5.5 mcm/d was offset by weaker unit EBITDA margins at `5.8/scm.  13% growth in volumes led by 29% growth in industrial and commercial PNG. IGL’s overall volume growth remained robust at 13% in 1QFY19 driven by sharp 29% yoy jump in the industrial/commercial PNG consumption, which is benefiting from favorable policy- related developments. CNG volumes grew 10% yoy to 273 mn kgs, slower than the overall growth; we expect the growth in CNG consumption to moderate gradually given slower vehicles addition. Overall PNG volumes grew 18% yoy to 129 mscm, including 13% increase in residential off-take and 10% increase in supply to other CGDs.  Unit margins remain sequentially steady at `5.8/scm. Gross margins reduced 4% qoq to ₹10.8/scm from ₹11.2/scm in 4QFY18 despite likely higher margins on CNG, price of which was hiked adequately to offset increase in domestic gas price; higher share of industrial PNG may have impacted margins partly. Unit EBITDA increased 2% qoq to ₹5.8/scm from `5.7/scm a quarter ago, helped by expectedly lower costs and operating leverage.  Higher contribution of `190 mn from associates. IGL’s share of net income from CUGL and MNGL was at ₹190 mn in 1QFY19 as compared to `180 mn in 1QFY18.

Limited success of IGL and its JVs in the recent CGD bidding round raises concerns IGL has won only one licence area out of its 11 bids in the recent CGD bidding round; results for two of its bids are still pending. IGL’s JV, MNGL has won three licence areas out of its five bids, while CUGL lost the only bid it made. In our view, the rise in participation and now Tarun Lakhotia success of downstream oil PSUs and private companies in the recent CGD bidding round, raise concerns of possible competition for the existing players in extant geographical areas as well in the long run. It may be enabled by the finalization of regulatory framework for CGD tariffs by Akshay Bhor PNGRB and declaration of such tariffs for third-party usage in the existing areas subsequently.

Fine tune estimates; retain SELL with DCF-based TP of `240 We reduce IGL’s consolidated EPS estimates by modest 1% to ₹12 in FY2019 and ₹13.5 in FY2020, factoring in minor changes in volumes and margins. Our DCF-based TP remains unchanged at `240. We retain SELL noting expensive valuations at 25X FY2019E EPS, which leave no margin of safety against any disappointment on volumes growth and/or unit margins.

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 57 SELL Voltas (VOLT) Industrials AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Neutral Will margins rebound over time and market share gains sustain? Unlike in the Price (`): 621 past, current share gains in the room AC business for Voltas have taken place (1) in a contracting market and (2) at the cost of margin. Voltas would likely have to Target price (`): 530 maintain its UCP margin in the current range of 11-12% to retain its market share. BSE-30: 37,869 Such margin would further weaken in FY2019 given large build-up in UCP segment assets. The surprise support from EMP 1QFY19 would unlikely continue given declining order backlog and normalizing margin. We cut estimates by 2-7%; retain `530 SoTP on roll-forward.

UCP: Price leader turns aggressor; more downside to margin in the near term Voltas has increased its share in the MBO market for room ACs to 23.5% in 1QFY19, adding more than 100 bps gain to its room-AC market share on a yoy/qoq basis. This hints at FY2019 being the sixth year of large share gains for Voltas since 2005. On most of the past five occasions, Voltas had added share while either maintaining or improving profitability and mostly doing so in growing markets. Several sectoral factors have been pushing up costs but Voltas is being selective in increasing prices across products and geographies. The same is visible in this segment results declining by 16% over 1QFY17, negating share gains and modest market growth over this period. Large increases in segmental assets for the UCP segment should further weaken margin in FY2019, based on past similar instance for Voltas in FY2012. A second summer in parts of the country and the forthcoming festive season will help Voltas cover some ground on AC sales and bring down its large inventory levels. Strategies such as indigenization (indoor unit moulds, controllers) and increased focus on inverter SKUs will help it grow in the long term.

EMP springs a surprise, a likely one-off; Voltas-Beko launch well on schedule EMP segment had a stellar quarter with 31% topline growth at `8.6 bn and EBIT margin of 10.2%, a margin print not seen in the last eight years and much higher than the management’s threshold of 7-8%. Higher margin was led by efficient execution as well as a few projects crossing internal margin recognition threshold of 20% completion. Outstanding order backlog, however, declined 6% yoy and 9% qoq to `46 bn. The growth strategy remains on government contracts as private capex is still muted, with margin threshold of 7-8%. Aditya Mongia

We reduce estimates by 2-7%; retain `530 SoTP on roll-forward Ajinkya Bhat Voltas reported a steady operating performance with 10-13% yoy growth in revenues/EBITDA. Reduction in other income on lower support for a fair valuation of financial assets/instruments yielded flattish yoy and in-line PAT. The key miss was on UCP segment margin and the same was compensated by EMP segment margin. A large build-up in UCP segment assets, weak order inflows for the EMP segment and margin beat on EMP lead to a net 2-7% cut in our FY2019-21 estimates.

Analysis of 1QFY19 results

Voltas reported 1QFY19 revenues of `21.3 bn, up 10% yoy, in line with estimates. UCP segment reported flat revenues of `12 bn due to unfavorable weather, unseasonal rains and thus lower customer offtake. The segment also reported lower EBIT margin of 12.5%, down 200 bps yoy due to factors such as higher commodity prices and INR depreciation versus US$. Overall UCP market share in multi-brand outlets increased further to 23.5%.

The EMP segment, on the other hand, had a stellar quarter with 31% topline growth at `8.6 bn and EBIT margin of 10.2%, a margin print not seen in the past eight years and much higher than the management’s threshold of 7-8%. Higher margin was led by efficient execution as well as a few projects crossing internal margin recognition threshold of 20% completion. Outstanding order backlog, however, declined 6% yoy and 9% qoq to `46 bn.

Notes: (1) We exclude ~25% dealer margin to calculate company revenues from retail sales estimates. (2) Instead of directly using the US$100 mn of total equity contribution envisaged by the company over the next 10 years, we arrive at required investments based on estimated sales and an eventual asset turnover ratio of 4X (in line with key peer Whirlpool India). (3) Based on the above estimates and modeling internal accruals as the first preference for incremental capex, we conclude that the JV may need an eventual equity investment of only ~US$80 mn by FY2028 as opposed to US$100 mn stated by the company.

Slower road to recovery. JSP lowered steel volume expectations for FY2019E as it Price (`): 204 now expects its DRI plant to start only after the Angul blast-furnace achieves 85% Target price (`): 215 utilization. We continue to rein in our expectations regarding steel volume growth given BSE-30: 37,869 the challenges around the company’s product-mix. Deleveraging and improved assets sweating make for a good story, though we expect earnings to improve only gradually given the challenges of low PPAs in the power business and demand challenges for the steel product-mix.

Angul plant ramp-up—operating at 65% utilization, to improve to 85% by year-end JSP’s Raigarh steel plant is now operating at close to 97-98% utilization while the Angul steel plant is operating at 60-65% capacity utilization. The management now expects the Angul blast-furnace to achieve plant utilization of 85% or steel production of 270 kt – 300 kt/month gradually by end FY2019. We note that this is lower than earlier guidance of 400 kt/month by October 2018 and the expectation of 300-350 kt/month of steel production till then. The management also highlighted that it will start the DRI plant only once the Angul blast-furnace monthly production rate improves to 270-300 kt (as indicated above), later than earlier guidance of August 2018. Our earlier estimate for FY2019 steel production at 5.8 mn tons for JSP was lower than production numbers computed per earlier guidance from management. We now cut our India steel volumes estimate by 3-5% to 5.5 mn tons, 6.2 mn tons and 6.4 mn tons for FY2019E, FY2020E and FY2021E. We believe the company may struggle to increase plant utilization at some of its finishing facilities such as the Plate mill due to weak end-user demand and may resort to more intermediate product sales such as billets, etc. However, the pick-up in infrastructure activity in India will augur well for JSP’s rebar, rail-mill capacity over 1-3 years. Net-debt increases due to forex translation losses JSP’s net-debt increased to Rs427 bn in June 2018 from Rs420 bn in March 2018 largely due to forex translation losses of Rs7 bn. We note that company has close to US$2 bn of loan in overseas subsidiaries and 5% qoq decline in INR/US$ rate in June 2018 will result in such currency adjustment on debt. We expect net-debt at Rs400 bn by FY2019E end, which can decline to Rs370 bn by FY2020E, if the company limits its capex to close to Rs15 bn. The capex Abhishek Poddar for 1QFY19 was Rs5.3 bn and the company expects Rs15 bn for FY2019E, which includes residual project capex. We cut our TP to Rs215 (Rs255 earlier) and maintain REDUCE rating Samrat Verma We cut our consolidated EBITDA estimate for FY2020-2021E by 2-4% on lower volume assumptions and revise target prices to Rs215 (Rs255 earlier). We maintain our REDUCE rating on the stock. We believe JSP offers a good asset sweating and deleveraging story over next 2-3 years though we expect the improvement in earnings to gradually due to challenges around company’s end-product steel capacity and volatile long product prices.

Changes in our estimates

Exhibit 7 highlights key changes in our estimates.

We cut our India steel volume estimate by 3-5% to 5.5 mn tons, 6.2 mn tons and 6.4 mn tons for FY2019E, FY2020E and FY2021E. We also lower our PLF assumption for JPL by 1- 4% to 47%, 52% and 62% for FY2019E, FY2020E and FY2021E.

This results in changes to our consolidated EBITDA estimate for FY2019-FY2021E by (4)-1%. We raise our EBIDTA estimate by 1% for FY2019E despite lower steel volumes due to higher steel prices. However, we cut our EBITDA estimate by 2-4% to Rs91.5 bn, Rs99 bn for FY2020E, FY2021E. Our EPS estimate is cut by 15-25% to Rs13.7, Rs22.1 for FY2020E, FY2021E. Note that the impact on EPS is large due to the company’s high leverage and weak profitability.

Other highlights from the results

 Oman steel plant, higher gas sourcing can aid earnings. The Oman steel plant reported another strong quarter with EBITDA of US$68 mn in 1QFY19 (US$32 mn in 1QFY18). We note that this operation continues to benefit from the improved spread between steel prices and gas prices: higher steel prices and cheaper gas sourcing has benefitted this operation more than traditional blast-furnace operations which use coking coal, the cost of which has also risen.

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 69 Metals & Mining Jindal Steel and Power

The company’s production at Oman steel plant was close to 430,000 tons in 1QFY19. The company’s profitability at Oman can now increase as it is able to source more gas (+15% over old quantity) and this will enable them to produce more metalliks (and reduce dependency on external sourcing). JSP will also be commissioning another caster plant in Oman. The additional gas sourcing will be at a marginally higher cost of US$3.5/mmbtu versus US$3/mmbtu for old gas sourcing.

 Inflation realization and raw-material cost in 1QFY19. In 1QFY19, while JSP’s EBITDA/ton was flat qoq at Rs12,900/ton, we note the strong increase in blended realization (+Rs6,700/ton to Rs56,200/ton) as well as raw-material costs (+Rs6,750/ton). The management highlighted that this increase was led (1) in part by higher steel prices as well as higher iron-ore, coal sourcing costs, and (2) in part due to sales of intermediate products such as pig-iron, granshots—this increased the cost as well as revenues by close to Rs3 bn, thereby inflating per ton realization and costs.

 DRI plant commissioning at Angul. The management highlighted that DRI production is expensive and it wants to start these operations at Angul only once they achieve the desired production rate at Angul blast furnace (85% utilization). The DRI plant will use 25-30% gas from the coke oven and close to 70% of energy will be sourced from the coal gasification plant. We note that company has two coke oven batteries operations at Angul and two more could be commissioned by March 2019.

 Steel production in 1QFY19. JSP’s steel production increased by 1% to 1.19 mn tons. As per management, production in1QFY19 could have been higher but for a shutdown of 10 days at Angul in April 2018.

74 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH ADD Tata Communications (TCOM) Telecom AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Disappointing run continues. Even as TCOM’s headline EBITDA print for 1QFY19 was Price (`): 569 in line with our expectations, internals of the earnings print disappointed, especially the Target price (`): 660 sharp adverse working capital swing. The management, on its part, stuck to its 3-year BSE-30: 37,869 guidance on EBITDA construct and ROCE. The guidance looks increasingly optimistic and the ask rate keeps going up with every disappointing quarter. We cut FY2019-21E EBITDA forecasts by 7-8% and our target price to `660 (from 725). Our constructive view does reflect benefit of doubt on improved execution. ADD.

1QFY19 – in-line headline but internals disappoint

Revenues were down 2.4% qoq and 9.2% yoy to `39.1 bn, 2% below expectations. Revenues were impacted partly by adoption of the Ind AS 115 revenue recognition standard; this, however, did not have a material impact on EBITDA. Underlying US$ revenue decline was sharper. EBITDA of `5.55 bn, flat both qoq and yoy, was in line with expectations. EBITDA margins stood at 14.2%, +30 bps qoq and +120 bps yoy. Margin surprise was on account of better-than-expected margin delivery in voice and traditional data service segments even as growth/innovation services and the two subsidiaries (transformation and payment services) disappointed on the EBITDA front. Net loss for the quarter stood at `585 mn, again broadly in line with our estimate.

Adverse working capital swing is key disappointment

EOP net debt increased to `88.4 bn from `75 bn at end-Mar 2018. Of the `13.4 bn swing, we believe nearly 50% was on account of adverse working capital movement and the balance on account of FC debt translation at a depreciated USDINR rate. EBITDA broadly funded the aggregate capex, cash interest and cash tax requirements. In its commentary, the management did indicate that (a) the adverse working capital swing is a reflection of the underlying shift in revenue mix towards higher-receivables data business and (b) the adverse movement will likely continue for another couple of quarters before working capital levels normalize. The data business has not been generating enough incremental EBITDA in the past few quarters to make up for the decline in the voice business. In that backdrop, the increase in working capital is ROCE dilutive at this point. We have adjusted our model to bake in the revised working capital Rohit Chordia outlook and net debt has accordingly gone up.

Cut EBITDA forecasts by 7-8% and price target to `665 (from 725). ADD stays Aniket Sethi The stock’s weak run over the past few quarters reflects increasing fatigue with the increasing gap between promise and delivery. The fatigue thus far was limited to EBITDA delivery; the working capital aspect adds to the fatigue. We have been believers in the top management’s execution prowess but we now share the fatigue. Reasonable valuations keep us positive.

Other result highlights and takeaways from the earnings call

 Voice segment EBITDA declined 2.5% qoq and 21% yoy. Contribution to overall EBITDA is now down to under 13%. Data segment EBITDA was flat qoq and up 3.1% yoy in INR terms at `4.86 bn.

 Traditional data services saw a modest 40 bps EBITDA margin expansion qoq and EBITDA growth of around 3.5%. Growth services EBITDA losses reduced a tad qoq but innovation service losses expanded. Combined EBITDA loss stood at US$22.1 mn versus US$24.3 mn in 4QFY18.

 TCPSL and TCTSL had poor quarters.

 Management characterized the industry demand environment as challenging, yet full of opportunities, belaboring the point of TCOM’s ongoing transformation from a ‘pure connectivity’ to a ‘digital infrastructure’ player and how this is helping the company build a strong foundation to tap growth opportunities in the future.

 Capex for the quarter was US$72 mn; this is in line with guidance of US$250-275 mn for the year.

 EOP net debt increased US$117 mn qoq to US$1.3 bn; the management attributed this to higher working capital requirements due to the ongoing change in the revenue mix and also slightly higher capex spends in the quarter.

 For its innovation business, the company is investing US$12-13 mn every quarter. Management believes that these investments are necessary to remain relevant to the client, going forward.

Weak quarter; profitability disappoints. AMRJ reported 1QFY19 EBITDA of `2.2 bn Price (`): 825 (+14% yoy), which was 16% below our estimates due to lower-than-expected gross Target price (`): 780 margin. Revenues increased by 18% yoy and were 5% above our estimates due to BSE-30: 37,869 market share gains in home UPS segment and greater traction in e-rickshaw segment. We expect margins to improve over the next few quarters driven by recent decline in lead prices but continued weakness in industrial segments remains a concern. At 20X FY2020E EPS, valuations are expensive; REDUCE stays with an unchanged TP of `780.

As per our discussions with the management, (1) four-wheeler segment revenues grew by 30% yoy due to a low base, (2) two-wheeler segment revenues were up 20% yoy, (3) home UPS and e-rickshaw battery revenues grew by 30% yoy and (2) industrial revenues were flat yoy as growth in commercial UPS was offset by decline in telecom segment. We note that for AMRJ, home UPS and e-rickshaw segments account for ~12-15% of revenues, which reflect significant market share gains. Even Exide seems to have made strong inroads in e-rickshaw segment, as per our checks – we believe that there is more room for both these companies to gain share in this segment, which is still largely dominated by unorganized players.

 EBITDA margin came in at 12.4% (down 50 bps yoy), which was 300 bps below our estimates. Gross margin declined by 280 bps qoq; as per the company, this was due to (1) a weaker mix—higher share of OEM and traded revenues and (2) increase in electrolyte prices and possibly delayed benefit of recent decline in lead prices. Lead prices have come down by around 8% over the past few months (Exhibit 3); this should aid gross margin going ahead. Employee cost and other expenses increased by 4-15% yoy leading to operating leverage benefits. AMRJ reported PAT of `1.1 bn (up 13% yoy), 23% below our estimates.

Expect 14% revenue CAGR over FY2018-21E; EBITDA margin to range in 14.5-15%

We expect AMRJ to deliver 14% revenue CAGR over FY2018-21E led by (1) double-digit revenue growth in auto segment and (2) market share gain in home UPS and e-rickshaw battery Nishit Jalan segments. We expect telecom revenues to remain flattish over FY2018-21E given industry headwinds and increase in competitive intensity. We expect EBITDA margin to range in 14.5- Hitesh Goel 15% on a full-year basis even though there will be volatility on a quarterly basis.

Lower FY2019-21E EPS estimates by 1-3%; maintain REDUCE with unchanged TP of `780

We have cut our FY2019-21E EPS estimates by 1-3% due to 30-40 bps cut in EBITDA margin assumptions; we have marginally increased our revenue estimates. Maintain REDUCE with an unchanged TP of `780, valuing the company at 20X June 2020E EPS (March 2020E EPS earlier).

Capacity expansion plans

The company plans to incur annual capex of `5 bn over the next two years to expand capacity for both automotive and tubular (home UPS and e-rickshaw) batteries. Following are the segment-wise plans (details in Exhibit 6).

 In four-wheeler segment, current capacity is around 10.4 mn units, which will increase to 12 mn units by end-FY2019. Additionally, the company has approved an investment of `7 bn to set up a new green field automotive battery plant with a capacity of 6.5 mn units per annum. This project will be implemented over three phases over the next few years.

 In two-wheeler segment, current capacity is around 14 mn units; this will likely increase to around 19 mn units over the next three years.

 The company has capacity of around 1 mn tubular batteries currently, which it plans to increase to 1.3 mn units by end-FY2019 and to around 1.8 mn units over the next 2-3 years. Tubular batteries are currently used in home UPS segment and going ahead the company plans to supply tubular batteries in e-rickshaw segment also compared to flat batteries currently. Market size of e-rickshaw battery is more than `10 bn currently, which can double over the next few years, as per the management.

APHS reported a healthy quarter with EBITDA Price (`): 944 exceeding our estimates by 5% driven by (1) lower-than-expected losses at AHLL, and (2) recovery in margins at mature cluster (+30 bps versus KIE). Revenue growth of 9% Target price (`): 1,090 yoy in mature facilities was encouraging while Navi breakeven (in July) capped BSE-30: 37,869 a good quarter. We note the importance of sustaining the 1QFY19 performance over the next few quarters. Moderating capex and steady growth across all segments will drive FCF generation over next three years. ADD.

Strong performance across all segments APHS registered revenue growth of 16% yoy in 1QFY19, largely in line with our estimates as growth in mature cluster (healthcare segment) recovered to 9% yoy (in line with our estimates), while the pharmacy segment continued to grow at a healthy pace of 20% yoy. 1QFY19 EBITDA of `2.3 bn was 5% ahead of our estimates driven by (1) lower-than-expected losses in AHLL segment (`60mn lower vs KIE) and (2) higher margins in mature healthcare facilities (21.3%, +30bps versus KIE). New hospitals reported EBITDA of `154 mn (in line with our estimates) with Navi Mumbai losses declining to `16 mn in 1QFY19. APHS indicated that its Navi Mumbai hospital has broken even in July. AHLL losses declined to `197 mn, versus a typical quarterly run-rate of `250-280 mn, with management guiding for EBITDA breakeven in 1HFY20. Net debt now stands at `31.2 bn post the acquisition of a 50% stake in a Lucknow hospital. Promising trends though sustainability of 1QFY19 performance remains crucial APHS’ strong operational performance in 1QFY19 across mature and new facilities was promising with (1) recovery in growth at mature centers to 9% (FY2018 growth was at 3%), (2) decline in losses in the AHLL segment and (3) Navi Mumbai facility breaking even in July, 20 months after commissioning. Performance at other new hospitals (ex-Navi Mumbai) was strong and the pharmacy business continued its healthy growth trajectory. Management remains confident of maintaining a healthy growth rate in FY2019. However, sustaining 1QFY19 performance remains crucial as our forecasts already assume 16% EBITDA growth over FY2018- 21E with the addition of `1.4-`1.5 bn of EBITDA each over the next two years, led by (1) single- digit EBITDA growth in mature centers, (2) `450-500 mn annual swing from Navi Mumbai, (3) declining losses from AHLL (`200 mn reduction each over FY2019 and FY2020), and Chirag Talati, CFA (4) growth in pharmacy and new hospitals. With its capex cycle likely to come to an end in FY2019/20, we expect meaningful free cash flow generation starting FY2020. Valuations inexpensive, ADD Kumar Gaurav Despite a strong start to the year, our estimates remain largely unchanged, as our estimates already incorporate a recovery with FY2018-21E revenue and EBITDA CAGR of 12% and 13% respectively, with FY2021 likely to improve to 12.5% (versus 7% in FY2018). APHS is trading at 14X FY2020 EBITDA (adjusted for Gleneagles share). ADD with an unchanged target price of `1,090.

Other income dropped 15% yoy owing to high reduction in treasury gains, `120 (from `130) down 70% yoy while recoveries were high at `2 bn owing to resolution in another account under NCLT-1. Fee income maintained the momentum, up 17% yoy. Growth in operating expenses was modest at 9% yoy; employee expenses decreased 6% yoy (the company provided `0.6 bn incremental provisions for wage revision). Cost income ratio dropped 310 bps qoq to 46%. Loan growth showed revival led by robust retail loan traction and gradual increase in corporate loans. CASA ratio was flat qoq at 34%; SA up 10% yoy while CA was down 21% yoy.

Commentary a lot more positive but likely to reflect in numbers in the next few quarters

The headline gross and net NPL ratios were flat qoq at 16% and 9% of loans respectively despite the quarter seeing one of the best recovery and upgradation cycles largely led by resolution in two cases that were in the IBC process under NCLT list 1 cases. Apart from the corporate sector, we saw higher slippages in the retail and agriculture segments as well. The management highlighted that there has been some progress in the power sector, which has resulted in a few accounts that were under their internal watch-list getting resolved. SMA-2 was marginally higher at ~3% of loans and mostly comprised small-ticket loans. Union Bank would also be a M B Mahesh CFA key beneficiary as some of the large-ticket loans that are under the NCLT process get resolved.

Maintain ADD Nischint Chawathe We maintain ADD rating and value the bank at `120 (from `130 earlier). CET-1 capital at 7.5% does indicate that there is likely to be more dilution ahead putting pressure on book value per Dipanjan Ghosh share growth and remains the key risk. At our TP we see the bank trading at 1.4X book and 5X March 2020E EPS for short-term RoEs in the range of 8-10% and strong growth in earnings, primarily off a low base. Earnings growth trends are likely to be volatile in the medium term. Improvement in the pace of resolutions is likely to be the bigger trigger for all public banks, in general.

Slippages high at 5.9%

Gross NPL increased ~27 bps qoq to 16% primarily on account of higher slippages from the corporate book. Overall stressed assets (NNPL + standard restructured + SDR + S4A + 5/25) increased 20 bps qoq to 9.5%. The company has 12 accounts under 5/25 worth `34 bn and 3 accounts under S4A worth `1.3 bn. The SMA-2 book has increased to `102 bn from `87 bn qoq. Provision coverage ratio (calculated) dropped 70 bps qoq to 50%.

Slippages were high at 5.9% of loans in 1QFY19. Elevated slippages were driven by corporate slippages which increased to 8.9% from 7.7% yoy. SME slippages which shot up in 4QFY18 to 7%, dropped to 1.8% in 1QFY19 (lowest in the last six quarters). Retail slippages, however, increased in 1QFY19 to 3.1%. Agriculture slippages decreased 220 bps qoq to 4.6%.

Union Bank has `23.7 bn exposure in the power sector. Of this, ~22% belongs to PSUs and SEBs. Out of the remaining exposure (private sector) worth `186 bn, ~`53 bn is NPL. 8 accounts from the private sector worth ~`40 bn was upgraded in 1QFY19 to standard account. Most of these accounts belonged to SMA-1 category.

Union Bank has exposure to 10 accounts (2 accounts resolved in 1QFY19) worth `63 bn and 16 accounts (2 accounts were sold in 4QFY18) worth `45 bn for accounts under NCLT list 1 and 2, respectively. The company maintains provision coverage ratio of 63% and 69% respectively on these accounts. The cumulative provisions on these accounts are 65.7%. No additional provisions were made for these accounts in 4QFY18.

We forecast GNPL to reduce to <10% by FY2021E driven by drop in slippages to ~1.75% over FY2019-21E.

Gross advances up 8% yoy

Loan growth was modest at 8% yoy. Retail loan growth maintained momentum, up 18% yoy. Within the retail portfolio, the housing loan portfolio dropped 4% yoy to `252 bn, similar to previous quarter. The share of retail loans in the overall portfolio increased to 15.7% in 1QFY19 (up 140 bps yoy). Vehicle loans saw strong growth at 15% yoy. LAP and other retail loan portfolio saw a sharp spike in growth at 2.1X yoy and 38% yoy respectively on a low base. Agriculture loans were flat yoy (on account of various debt waiver schemes). SME loans remained muted; up 8% yoy. Corporate loans revived growth to 8% yoy.

We expect loan growth to improve at ~9% CAGR over FY2018-2021E driven by modest performance in SME and agriculture loans. While retail loans will drive majority growth, corporate growth is expected to pick pace in the medium term.

Interest recognition from resolved account under NCLT drives NIM

Calculated NIM increased 35 bps qoq and 20 bps yoy to 2.4% on the back of rise in yield on advances. Calculated yields increased 55 bps qoq (down 9 bps yoy) driven by interest recognition worth `2.7 bn from one account under NCLT list 1. Adjusting for the same, NIM was NIM was 2.1% and yields were up 20 bps yoy to 7.3%. The improvement in yields qoq was led by lower interest reversals in the quarter. Cost of deposits increased 10 bps qoq (down 30 bps yoy) to 6%.

Yields are expected to improve going ahead as recoveries from various NCLT cases pick pace in FY2019E. There will be marginal drag on yields driven by change in loan mix towards higher share of low-yielding retail loans. We maintain a positive view on NIM driven by higher recoveries, lower cost of funds, change in loans mix to include more retail products and lower interest reversals. We forecast NIM to improve to 2.2% by FY2019E from 2.1% in FY2018.

CASA ratio flat qoq at 34%

Growth in total deposits was modest at 8% yoy. Muted CASA growth at 4% yoy in 1QFY19 was led by 21% yoy drop in CAA deposits. SA, however, maintained traction, up 10% yoy. We forecast 9% CAGR in CASA over FY2019-2021E and stable CASA of 34% during the same period.

Other highlights of the quarter

 Non-interest income decreased 15% yoy on the back of a steep drop in treasury gains at 70% yoy. Fee income maintained strong momentum, up 17% yoy. Recovery from written-off accounts saw a sharp rise in 1QFY19 to `21 bn (up 9.8X yoy) on the back of resolution of 1 account under NCLT list 1 (~`1.6 bn).

 Cost-income ratio improved qoq by 310 bps to 46% driven by modest growth in operating expenses at 9% yoy. While other expenses were high at 25% yoy led by continuous investment in business expansion and technology innovation, employee expenses dropped 6% yoy (this was despite accounting for incremental provisions for wage revision worth `1.6 bn).

 Capital adequacy ratio (CAR) ratio is comfortable at 11.5% with tier-1 ratio of 9%. RWA dropped by 1% yoy compared to growth in gross advances at 8% yoy.

98 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH REDUCE Dr Lal Pathlabs (DLPL) Pharmaceuticals AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Neutral

Strong start to the year. DLPL posted robust 17% yoy growth in revenues in 1QFY19, Price (`): 926 largely in line with our estimates, with healthy EBITDA margin of 25.7%. Increased Target price (`): 900 focus on wellness/bundled packages is displaying promising trends and DLPL’s growth BSE-30: 37,869 over the next 3-5 years is likely to be dictated by execution in its non-core clusters, particularly eastern India. Rich valuations adequately price in DLPL’s growth narrative. Reiterate REDUCE; revise target price to `900 (from `865).

Healthy quarter, albeit in line with our estimates

Dr Lal Pathlabs’ 1QFY19 revenues of `2.9 bn were largely in line with our estimates, with revenues growing at 17% yoy. Revenue growth was primarily driven by 18% yoy increase in volumes with the key cluster of north India continuing to grow at a healthy rate. Gross margins at 78% were 50 bps below our estimates. Slightly higher employee expense in the quarter led to EBITDA missing our estimates by a modest 2%. 1QFY19 EBITDA margin at 25.7% (+170 bps qoq) was 80 bps below our estimates with EBITDA growing at 15% yoy. Other income and tax rate were largely in line, while marginally lower depreciation led to an in line PAT.

Increased focus on wellness and bundled packages encouraging

In the past 9 months, DLPL has sharpened its focus on wellness/bundled division, dedicating higher resources along with aggressively promoting its ‘SwasthaFit’ health packages and other bundled tests to provide more value for money offerings to customers. The strategy has exhibited promising initial trends with tests/patient metric moving up to 2.34 in the past two quarters versus 2.2 in 1QFY18. Contribution of wellness/bundled packages has also increased to ~10-12% of revenues versus 7-8% previously. Apart from the increasing focus on wellness and other bundled segments, DLPL’s revenue growth over the next few years is likely to be dictated by successful execution of its strategy in the east. While we expect revenue ramp-up to be gradual, we believe margins are unlikely to fall materially. DLPL has already demonstrated strong cost controls across its business with steady EBITDA margins despite no price hikes since 2016 and its strategy of increasing PSC network rather than owned labs moving forward is likely to control overheads. Chirag Talati, CFA Reiterate REDUCE; revise target price to `900

While we believe structural trends remain favorable, valuations remain rich. Our earnings Kumar Gaurav estimates for FY2019-21 remain largely unchanged. DLPL is trading at 33X and 28X FY2019E and FY2020E EPS, respectively, with limited room for upside. We reiterate REDUCE rating and revise DCF based target price to `900 (from `865, as we roll forward to June 2020E) and recommend awaiting better entry points.

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 103 SELL Kaveri Seed (KSCL) Others AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view:

In-line results. Kaveri’s 1QFY19 results were broadly in line with our expectations, with Price (`): 623 revenues and EBITDA declining 1-2% yoy as a 12% decline in cotton seed revenues was Target price (`): 515 offset by 25% growth in the non-cotton seed portfolio. Kaveri’s diversification into BSE-30: 37,869 other seeds is certainly encouraging; however, policy interventions on pricing/regulations and the potential risk of technology obsolescence constrain our view. SELL stays with a revised target price of `515 (`470 earlier).

Cotton seed revenues declined 12% yoy; lower write-offs and other seeds save the day Kaveri’s results were broadly in line with our expectations for 1QFY19 amid expectedly weak acreages across key crops. Revenues were largely flat yoy at `5.82 bn, 3% below our estimate, as an expected sharp decline in the cotton seed volumes and realization was offset by higher volumes/revenues of hybrid rice and maize seeds. Reported EBITDA declined 2% yoy to `2.04 bn with margins remaining flat at 35%, partly benefiting from sharp decline in other expenses, reflecting lower write-offs. Net income increased 4% yoy to `2.11 bn (EPS of `31.9), 3% above our estimate, led by sharply higher other income. The management guided for slower revenue growth of 7% in FY2019, while maintaining optimism for FY2020.  Expected weakness in cotton seeds. Kaveri reported a 10% yoy decline in volumes to 5.9 mn packets in line with our expectations, led by (1) decline in acreages due to fear of Pink Bollworm, (2) delayed sowing due to late announcements of MSPs and delayed monsoon in certain states and (3) illegal use of herbicide tolerance seeds. Cotton seed realizations declined modestly by `13/packet, lower than the net reduction of `50/packet in price cap by the government. Kaveri’s cotton seeds volumes declined across key states except Gujarat, led by lower acreages and likely loss of market share.  Strong growth in hybrid rice; maize remains steady. Hybrid rice volumes jumped 36% yoy, benefiting from (1) introduction of new hybrid 468 and (2) doubling of business from the government. Maize volumes grew 4% yoy despite weakness in Kaveri’s key markets of Telangana, Maharashtra and North East region. Revenues from the non-cotton seed portfolio grew by a robust 25%, benefiting from new products and higher realizations. Fine tune estimates; retain SELL

We cut our FY2020-21 estimates by 1-4% factoring in (1) lower cotton seed revenues and Tarun Lakhotia (2) other minor changes; our FY2019E EPS remains unchanged. Our TP increases to `515 from `470 previously, as we ascribe 15X multiple to FY2020E EPS as compared to 13X; we have raised multiples seeking comfort on cash utilization from the recent buyback announcement. Akshay Bhor The company has proposed another buyback of ~4.5% of equity at `675/share through the tender route for a total consideration of `2 bn, the same as last year. Kaveri’s high dependence on Bt cotton seeds, which continues to be impacted by adverse policy/pricing changes and possible technology obsolescence, keeps us negative on the stock. We do see a risk of the government intervention on prices of other crop seeds, which may impact the business further.

108 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH BUY S H Kelkar and Company (SHKL) Consumer Products AUGUST 13, 2018 RESULT Coverage view: Cautious

Tightrope walk continues. SHK’s earnings print disappointed again, a revenue miss Price (`): 195 being the culprit this time - as the company chose to not chase low-margin revenues in Target price (`): 290 the backdrop of unprecedented RM inflation. We remain hopeful of normalized BSE-30: 37,869 earnings power being much higher than recent quarters have suggested (and the next will continue to, perhaps), even as we recognize investor fatigue reflecting in the stock. Opportunity or value trap? We believe the former. Reiterate BUY with a revised fair value target of `290/share (from 315).

Earnings disappoint, again

Our 1QFY19 forecasts had baked in, to the best of our judgment, the company’s pre-earnings warning. The disappointment underscores several challenges: (a) the operating environment for the company, which maintains it has seen nearly three-and-a-half-years of normal RM inflation in as little as six months, and (b) drawing forecasts for the company, at this point.

Consolidated revenues grew a modest 1% yoy to `2.36 bn, 11% below our estimate. The company indicated that it chose to give up some business on the international front to improve profitability as the disruptive RM scenario continued. On the domestic front, however, the company chose to prioritize revenues over margins and saw healthy 13% yoy growth in the core domestic fragrances business even as gross margins dipped further, even sequentially. A tight rope walk, as we said.

Consolidated gross margins did see a healthy 500 bps qoq expansion to 44.1%; our estimate was 42.6%. We would, however, not read much into this as our numbers had not assumed that the company would give up revenues in the international portfolio to prioritize gross margin normalization. To be sure, gross margins were still down 392 bps yoy. Gross profits declined 8% yoy. EBITDA stood at `329 mn, down 23% yoy and nearly 30% versus 1QFY17 levels. We note that the base quarter was soft in any case. EBITDA miss was restricted to 5% as employee and other expenses came in lower than our estimate. EBITDA margin came in at Rohit Chordia 13.9%, 100 bps above our estimate but down a sharp 423 bps yoy. Recurring PAT stood at `187 mn (EPS: `1.29/share), down 30% yoy and 8% below estimates.

Jaykumar Doshi Margin normalization to drive earnings and returns; we remain positive

Even as we are a tad disappointed with the time it is taking for the company to pass RM inflation onto its customers, we continue to believe the F&F business has the pricing power to Aniket Sethi do so, with a lag. The RM situation is expected to normalize in the next few quarters and this should result in the financials reflecting the underlying margin and returns profile of the business. Even if it does not, we believe the downside may be limited from CMP. BUY.

Earnings model changes

Exhibit 1 depicts key changes to our earnings model. We have cut FY2019-21E revenue, EBITDA and EPS forecasts for the company by 6-7%, 9-16% and 7-16%, respectively, as we bake in the incremental RM pressure indicated by the company and the pass-through delay versus our earlier expectations. Our DCF-based fair value target stands revised down to `290/share (from 315). We reiterate our BUY rating.

Conference call highlights

 Incremental RM inflation. SHK management indicated fresh supply disruptions in a couple of its key crude-linked RM ingredients in 1QFY19. Nearly 75% of the RM basket has seen abnormal inflation in the past year.

 Pass-through only partial, as yet. Of the three waves of steep RM inflation seen in the past year or so, SHK has been able to pass on only one wave to its customers thus far. It is in discussions with the customers and expects to take more price increases through the year (unlike the normal once-a-year pricing reset cycle). The next few quarters would be a test of the company’s pricing power and determine whether the F&F industry in India is just a commodity industry or not. The F&F sector, globally, has shown signs of good pricing power. However, India could be different, given how the brand owners (FMCG names) dominate the value chain.

 On the positive side, the company characterized the underlying demand environment for domestic fragrances as buoyant, reflecting improved volume outlook for the customers.

 New wins are coming in at normalized margins; it has been easier to win new business at prices reflecting the RM cost push but challenging to push up pricing in existing contracts, as per the management.

1Q blip, expect better. Dhanuka started the year on a muted note with results well Price (`): 555 below estimates, led by modest growth in revenues and a sharp moderation in margins. Target price (`): 650 We see this as a temporary blip, expecting recovery in revenues growth and BSE-30: 37,869 normalization of margins post the recent pricing action by the company. We retain our ADD rating with a revised TP of `650 (`680 previously), expecting the company to benefit from the scale-up of recent product introductions underpinned by its strong distribution reach.

5% growth in volumes offset by sharp moderation in margins Dhanuka reported 2% yoy growth in revenues to `2.13 bn in 1QFY19, 11% below our estimate and sharply below the growth registered by its domestic peers, driven by weak off- take of volumes in North and an unfavorable product mix, which is weighted towards herbicides. The company indicated that volumes grew by 5% yoy, while being offset by a decline in realizations due to an adverse pricing/product mix during 1QFY19. EBITDA margins declined sharply to 7.4% from 17% in 4QFY18 driven by (1) continued pressure from rising raw material costs and a weaker Rupee and (2) inability to pass on price hikes amid high channel inventory. EBITDA declined 35% yoy to `159 mn, sharply below our estimate. Net income remained flat yoy at `162 mn (EPS of `3.3), benefiting from higher other income and a lower tax rate at 23%.  Guidance lowered to double-digits revenue growth from 15% earlier. After the tepid performance of 1QFY19, the company now expects to deliver low double-digit growth in FY2019 backed by recovery starting in 2QFY19 and benefits from new product launches.  EBITDA margin to remain steady yoy; Udhampur excise benefits dent profitability. The company expects to maintain EBITDA margins at levels similar to FY2018, despite a weak start as the company expects to benefit from (1) arrest in raw material cost increases from China and anticipated decline during the Rabi season, (2) pricing escalations during 1QFY19 and (3) operating leverage for the remainder of FY2019. The company indicated a net impact of `60 mn from a loss of excise benefit from Udhampur facility.  Product performances encouraging; 9 (3) grape herbicide to be launched in 3QFY19. The company’s product portfolio is seeing strong traction despite the tough environment.

Sempra is expected to witness volume growth despite a weak sugarcane cycle backed by the Tarun Lakhotia introduction of a maize variant. Targa Super, D-one and Cover have shown a strong pick-up starting in June. The company has increased spends on Dhanuka Doctors and expects to reap benefits from products launched over the past two years. The company plans to launch its Akshay Bhor grape herbicide under 9 (3) registration during 3QFY19. 5% cut in estimates; ADD stays with a revised TP of `650 We cut FY2019-21E EPS estimates by 5%, factoring in (1) weak volume growth and modestly lower EBITDA margins versus earlier assumptions, (2) higher other income and (3) other minor changes. Our TP, based on 21X FY2020E EPS, reduces to `650 from `680 previously.

Dy MD Sukthankar resigns. HDFC Bank’s Deputy Managing Director, Mr Paresh Price (`): 2,114 Sukthankar, one of the founding members, has resigned, putting to an end to Target price (`): 2,000 speculation regarding his candidacy for the job of next MD of the bank. We don’t see BSE-30: 37,869 any near-term concerns to business given the strength of the senior management team but it does appear that the successor is most likely an external candidate. We maintain our REDUCE rating given the current valuations and preference for corporate banks.

A long-standing team leader calls it a day

Mr Paresh Sukthankar, Deputy Managing Director of HDFC Bank and who has been with the bank since its inception, tendered his resignation on Friday. The timing of the move comes as a bit of surprise as the board had recently inducted Mr Sanjiv Sachar who had retired as a senior partner at Egon Zehnder, one of the world’s largest executive search firms. We did believe that this was to prepare for succession planning for the position of the Managing Director, which would need to be filled by October 2020. Given his contribution to the bank and the leadership position, Mr Paresh Sukthankar was always a contender for the job but it is important to note that the management had made it clear in the past that this role would need to be filled with care and would be open to both and internal and external candidates.

Strong team gives comfort; senior management team is bound to change/hasten

HDFC Bank has arguably one of the best bench strengths. Exhibit 1 shows a 25-member team with an average age of 52 years. The team was strengthened to 25 from 15 in 2016 (Exhibit 2). Exhibit 3 shows the changes at the senior management level over the past decade. We have seen about 13 exits with over 50% of them by members who have crossed 60 years. With Mr Puri leaving in the next two years and an external candidate filling his shoes, as it now appears, it would not be too surprising if there are further changes in the team in the next few years. Mr Paresh, unlike other members, had an overview of all parts of the bank while other team members have graduated to a senior management position from specific roles. Note that all M B Mahesh CFA private banks are in a similar state of affairs with senior management changes as these organizations are now over 20 years old. Nischint Chawathe Maintain REDUCE: no change in view based on current development

We maintain our REDUCE rating with no change to our view based on the current Dipanjan Ghosh development. At our TP, we value the bank at 3.2X book (factoring the recent capital infusion) and 20X March 2020E EPS for 20% earnings CAGR for FY2019-21E and RoEs in the range of 16-17% over the same period. A gradual increase in competition in the retail space and change in product mix raise concerns over margins and asset quality in medium term. Growth remains strong, but earnings drag on the back of margin compression remains our key concern.

Infosys NDR takeaways. We hosted investor meetings for Infosys recently. Key Price (`): 1,385 takeaways about the company: (1) it is confident of achieving near-term financial Target price (`): 1,400 objectives, (2) it is making progress in strengthening lag areas like large deals and BSE-30: 37,869 digital, (3) its localization imperative is progressing far better than expected; the company has already hired over 5,000 of the planned 10,000 in the US and (4) its interventions are likely to bring down attrition rates. Infosys is progressing nicely towards its stated financial goals. Reiterate ADD rating.

Management confident of achieving growth targets

We hosted the following leaders of Infosys for investor meetings in the US—(1) M.D. Ranganath—CFO, (2) Ravi Kumar—Deputy COO, (3) Jayesh Sanghrajka—Deputy CFO and (4) Sandeep Mahindroo—Financial Controller. The management reiterated its confidence in achieving near-term financial objectives i.e. revenue growth in the guided range of 6-8% and EBIT margin range of 22-24% (with a bias towards the upper end) for FY2019E. The management views a weak 1QFY19 BFS as an aberration and reiterated its confidence in returning to growth based on the ramp-up of large deals signed in the vertical recently.

Measures undertaken to catch-up in underperforming areas

The company has a made a few interventions to strengthen the narrative and positioning of the company in critical areas:

 Digital. Even as the company had developed significant competencies under its hood, awareness was low on this front on account of insufficient communication and an overbearing emphasis on the people+ software model in the past. The low key narrative under the earlier CEO is being corrected with a more overt narrative around digital competencies, enhanced disclosure of revenues from digital offerings and building of separate practice sales for digital offerings that will work closely with account managers in ensuring wider acceptance of such offerings by clients. Digital offerings of Infosys have higher gross margin, revenue per person and growth rates.

 Large deals. The company has revamped its approach to large deals and is looking to Kawaljeet Saluja strengthen large deal leadership. The company believes that deals above a certain threshold (let’s say US$200 mn) require a full stack approach wherein an entire range of offerings of application, infra and business process can be offered as a single operating cost model and Jaykumar Doshi effectively stitched together on an outcome basis for the client. The deal signed recently with John Hancock is one such example.

 Creating supply of talent for digital services. Demand for talent far exceeds supply. Infosys is aggressively hiring new talent (especially in the US), refactoring talent where required and training resources in new technologies. Infosys’ culture and emphasis on learning and training holds it in good stead.

Progress in localization imperative far better than expected

Infosys has hired over 5,000 locals in the US and is progressing well towards its stated target of recruitment of 10,000 people. What is particularly impressive is hiring of 1,400 fresh graduates that have gone through three months training and 70% of whom are already deployed on client projects. The company has built an effective pyramid onsite, lowered cost of operations with positive impact on customer satisfaction and created a new talent pool. The company is investing in training infrastructure in US similar to operations in Mysore.

Infosys believes this talent creation model is unique to the company and will be a competitive differentiator. The head start enjoyed by the company is on multiple fronts having put in place: (1) scale—the company has already recruited over 5,000 people onsite, (2) infrastructure with dedicated development centers and training infrastructure and (3) partnerships with colleges and universities.

Interventions made to bring attrition under control

Infosys believes that attrition is above the comfort zone and has made the following interventions which will bring it under control—(1) advanced the wage hike to April as compared to July last year, (2) ensured more promotions contingent on performance, and (3) greater differentiation in variable compensation between best performers and average performers. Infosys believes that attrition rate will decline after these interventions.

Most of the attrition is in <3-year experience band. The company is also taking a couple of steps to create and retain the relevant talent pool—(1) differentiate compensation based on outcome of tests after initial training provided by the company and (2) differentiate compensation based on the campus form which a candidate is recruited as opposed to more socialistic distribution at present.

Leapfrogged on IMS revenues

Infosys is optimistic about IMS revenues with multiple deals won for creating hybrid cloud environments, migration of application instances to cloud and a shift of workloads to the public cloud. The company believes it does have a legacy drag to deal with from asset heavy deals of the past. In a way, the company does not have to deal with legacy drag on its IMS portfolio.

Consistent capital allocation

Capital allocation is more predictable with consistent payout to investors that for now is pegged at 70% of free cash flow. In addition, the company flushed out cash through buybacks. Total cash returned to shareholders was US$3.7 bn in FY2018 and will likely be US$3.5 bn in FY2019.

Maintain positive view on the stock

We believe Infosys is taking the right steps to stabilize and accelerate revenue growth hereon. Infosys has done a reasonable job up to now of defending its share of business in large accounts (US$100 mn accounts have increased further) and accelerating deal wins (TCV in June 2018 quarter was at an eight-quarter high). We however refrain from calling out a path to double digit growth rate in FY2020E for Infosys. Our relative caution is based on the high employee churn rate. Attrition is our single biggest concern as other metrics are trending in the right direction. Infosys stock had a nice run and now offers modest upside.

128 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH INDIA Economy Industrial Production AUGUST 13, 2018 UPDATE BSE-30: 37,869

IIP: Continuing to signal gradual recovery. June IIP growth had support from favorable base effect (June 2017 had seen pre-GST implementation disruptions) and growth in capital goods and infrastructure/construction segments. Industrial growth has likely troughed and a phase of gradual recovery seems to be underway. On the flipside this lends strength to the RBI’s argument that the output gap has almost closed, implying that incremental demand growth without commensurate supply-side expansion could be inflationary.

June IIP growth registers a strong print supported by favorable base effect QUICK NUMBERS June IIP growth at 7% improved significantly from the May print of 3.9% (Kotak: 5%; Consensus: 5.5%) led largely by favorable base effects and some pickup in capital goods,  June IIP growth at infrastructure/construction, and consumer durables. Manufacturing sector growth was at 6.9% 7%; manufacturing compared to 3.7% in May (Exhibits 1 and 2). ‘Manufacture of computer, electronic and optical growth at 6.9% products’ has shown the highest positive growth of 44.1% followed by the automobile sector with 20.5% in ‘manufacture of motor vehicles, trailers and semi-trailers’ and 15.6% in  Capital goods ‘manufacture of other transport equipment’. On the other hand, ‘other manufacturing’ growth at 9.6%; segment has shown the highest negative growth of (-)40.2% followed by (-)31.7% in infrastructure goods ‘manufacture of tobacco products’ and (-)0.8% in ‘manufacture of textiles’. growth at 8.5%

Mining sector production grew 6.6% after 5.8% in May. Electricity production growth was at  Primary goods 8.5% against 4.2% in May (and 4.1% reported in core IIP release). Overall, industrial growth growth at 9.3%; has likely troughed and a phase of gradual recovery seems to be underway (Exhibit 3). consumer durables Capital goods, infrastructure/construction, and consumer durables pull up IIP growth growth at 13.1%

From the use-based classification side, primary goods production growth was at 9.3%, intermediate goods at 2.4% and infrastructure/construction goods at 8.5%. Consumer durables and consumer non-durables sectors’ productions growth was at 13.1% and 0.5%, respectively. Capital goods production registered a growth of 9.6% (Exhibit 4). The base effect shows in the fact that sequentially only capital goods and infrastructure/construction segments registered positive growth. There are some signs of a nascent investment cycle recovery visible through (1) marginal increase in capacity utilization levels, and (2) high frequency activity indicators such as cement production, CV sales, bitumen consumption, etc. (though some base effect remains) (Exhibits 5 and 6). The durability of these indicators will be tested through the rest of FY2019, especially as the favorable base effects gradually wane. We would also be cautious of the risks due to trade wars/export slowdown (Exhibit 7).

Growth likely to improve gradually

It is unlikely that the private sector investment cycle will see any V-shaped recovery. The recovery hinges on both (1) visibility of healthy aggregate demand over the medium to long Suvodeep Rakshit term, and (2) healthier balance sheet for borrowers and lenders. We remain cautious on the pace of this recovery and expect FY2019 GDP growth at 7.3% compared to 6.6% in FY2018 taking into account some of the early signs of stability in the high frequency indicators as well Upasna Bhardwaj as base effects from GST-led disruptions. However, the uptrend in oil prices, global growth prospects, and tighter domestic financial conditions may pose a downside risk to growth. Further, the sustenance of a recovery will also depend on the progress on twin deficits, corporate debt overhang and improvement in capacity utilization. The June IIP print will strengthen RBI’s argument that the output gap has almost closed and, hence, incremental demand increase could be inflationary.
