EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
An investment is a commitment of funds made in expectation of some positive rate of return in future.
An investor makes some sacrifice in the present in the hope of desiring benefit in the future. Now the
most common question that arises is, which stock to pick from the wide range of securities and sectors.
This calls for Security Analysis and Security valuation.
The Indian Stock market is semi-strong and is very volatile. The economy of different countries like
USA and China have bearing on our economy. An example to mention is US recession which caused
crash in stock market. Excluding such systematic risk, one can evaluate the future prospects of the
company using fundamentals.
An investor should make through comparison of the price of the security with its true value. Value here
refers to the intrinsic value worth or the Value anchor. Only with the help of such evaluation the investor
can decide as to buy hold or sell.
In light of the above this report focuses on the importance of equity research in the country and the work
done by me during my internship i.e. in the hospitality sector. So the fundamental analysis of hospitality
sector becomes the prime agenda of my internship to understand how the equity research firms do their
work to serve their clients and manage them to handle their money in the most appropriate way.

WORK FLOW MODEL
The industry in which I worked for was the Hospitality sector. The work done was carried on in
the following sequence.
Industry Analysis
Financial Statement Analysis and
Data Collection
Company Analysis
Findings and Results
INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
Indian Tourism and Hospitality Industry is of major importance and its contribution is a lot to
the revenue of the service sector of India. The combined wing including Trade, Repair
services, Hotels and Restaurants together contributed 19.2% of GDP in the year 2015-
16(Source: IBEF’s report on Tourism and Hospitality Industry in India).If Travel and
Tourism Industry is considered separately, its total contribution to GDP in FY16 is expected
to be 3.7% which is expected to rise to 3.8% p.a. in the year 2025. (Source: World Travel
and Tourism Council).
The basic reason for the growth of Tourism and hospitality industry in India is the diversity in
culture and the rich cultural heritage of India which attracts various foreign tourists as well as
the Indians going to various places to explore India’s cultural diversity.
19
Exhibit 4: Contribution of Tourism and Hospitality Sector to the GDP of India
Tourism and Hospitality Industry is also a major employment generator for the country. The
industry is expected to generate 13.45 million jobs! across sub-segments such as Restaurants
(10.49 million jobs), Hotels (2.3 million jobs) and Travel Agents/Tour Operators (0.66 million)
(IBEF’s report on Tourism and Hospitality Industry in India).There has been increase in the
occupancy ratio and average room rates due to increase in the demand of hotel rooms by various
visitors in the recent past. The Pan India Occupancy rate in FY16e is expected to be somewhat
around 63% as compared to the previous year’s occupancy rate of 60 %( Indian Hotel Industry
FY2017 outlook: Report by ICRA Research Services).
The growth in the revenue (topline) of the industry is expected to be around 8 % during the year
2015-16(Business news-Money control.com). This may be due to increase in the room inventory
of the country and also increase in the arrival of foreign tourists in the country.
20
Exhibit 5: Foreign Tourists arriving in India in a particular time period
India has near about 200000 hotel rooms across various hotel categories but still there is a
shortage of around 100000 rooms( Source: FHRAI) and the total investment in the near future
in this industry will be approximately 400 million rupees ( Source: HVS). The hospitality
industry is always impacted by the tourism industry of the country and the fate of this industry is
always linked with it. So growth in tourism industry clearly indicates the growth of the
hospitality industry. The visa on arrival facility by Government of India, Five Year Tax Holiday
to hotels, 30 world heritage sites and 25 bio-geographic zones had led to increase in the tourist
footfall in India and the topline growth of hospitality sector.

21
Exhibit 7: Structure of Hotel Industry in the world
Apart from the above mentioned initiatives of the Government, the Indian Government has also
started abhiyans like Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, Make in India initiative and other initiatives that
are contributing a lot towards making the image of the country positive in mind of world tourists
so that they are attracted towards this country and which will ultimately lead to rise in the
demand for hotels and rooms to stay and thus helping the tourism as well as the hospitality
industry to grow and reach its potential limit. Along with all this Government of India has started
various campaigns like “Incredible India” which does the same work as of the above mentioned
initiatives.
“Project Mausam” has also been started by the Government of India as an inception of
developing a bond between the 39 Indian Ocean Countries to share our rich cultural heritage
with them and indirectly attract foreign exchange to our country. Currently Government of India
has initiated 29 mega tourism projects across 22 states in the country. (Source:

Increase of the use of mobile apps for hotel booking has allowed the customers to have more
personalized experience of their stay in hotels and various apps like make my trip, goibibo,
Booking.com and various other apps have given the customers a chance to get good hotels at
affordable prices and can read the reviews of other people during their stay in that hotel to
choose the best one from them. On the hotel front, these apps have reduced the distribution costs
of these hotels, the marketing costs and lower down various other expenses.
Structure of Hotel Industry
22
But certain macroeconomic factors like Chinese rebalancing, fall in the prices of various
commodities as well oil, and sudden decrease in the inflow of capital in the emerging and the
developing countries has led to global slowdown of every kind of business which has also
effected the Hospitality Industry despite of the various initiatives of the Government to promote
it.

PESTEL ANALYSIS OF HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY IN INDIA:
In a country like India which is known globally for various factors, Hospitality is one of them. In
such scenarios this industry not only plays an important role in recognizing the country globally,
but also has its influential impact on the political, economic and various sectors. Hospitality
industry is not just analysis of hotels but is also inclusion of service industry, lodging,
restaurants, transportation, cruise line etc.
In this section, we will try to analyze this industry for the same considering the factors that get
impacted directly or indirectly because of this sector. This study is referred to as PESTEL
Analysis, where in we study the factors affecting or influencing a specific sector with respect to
its Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental and Legal impact of the nation.
Before directly jumping to the analysis, lets us look at the various factors influencing this
analysis.
Political:
Political meetings of International
leaders is held in premium hotels,
thus playing important role in
politics.
With the political situation at unrest
the situations are diverting the
investor’s attention from the
industry.
Unstable govt. policies are only
making it difficult for industries to
survive or earn profitable margins.
Economical:
With the battle fought on losing side, the staff do not have enough and efficient trainings
to meet international standards.
Exhibit 8: Segmentation of Hospitality
Sector
24
The growing foreign investments will only help better the industry situations.
The huge investments make it not as attractive as any other industry.
Social:
The improvements in hospitality industry reflects the improvement in social standards.
Hospitality industry also acts as a looking forwards for concept and design for middle
class customers.
As the labor cost is less comparatively, the jobs are more thus help improve the social
conditions around.
Technological:
As the industry is growing,
so is the need for
technological
advancements in the
industry.
Technology is used
initially to woo customers
and investors towards the
luxury the industry
provides.
In the recent, technology is
used to market the industry to gain new customers and provide better facilities to
customers than the competitors.
Environmental:
Like every other industry, hospitality has its own impact on the environment it’s built in.
Stricter rules are being implied by the govt. to ensure minimal impact on the
environment.
25
Solar energy is being adopted to conserve energy ensuring a safer and durable future.
Legal:
The industry has seen huge changes in the legal formalities towards increasing the safety
of the industry.
The changes in foreign policies of the country impacts the legal authorities indirectly
making survival difficult.
With hotels becoming the new target for terrorism, legal authorities have straightened the
laws and taxes making them lesser of profits.
SWOT ANALYSIS OF HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY IN INDIA:
Any and every industry in the world has its own merits and demerits which help investors in
deciding how attractive a sector is. Hospitality industry is no excuse to the same, and with being
an important factors for tourism, travelling and real estate business it is still a sector of strength.
Hospitality industry has seen a huge investment from the local players in India, but this does not
mitigate the fact that the sector’s success are also dependent on outside factors like high profile
travelling, change of govt. rules and regulations, in stock market and also IT industry in India.
Hospitality is a sector which has got huge entry barriers due to the amount needs to be invested
for entering into it but most players entering into this do not quit as quickly as the exit barriers
are also similarly high. These factors make the business sector a more reliable and riskier both at
the same time.
SWOT Analysis is a factor analysis of any given industry done by professionals to help them
find if a given sector is attractive for investment or not, and if yes them how much investment
can be made and for how long. This analysis is helps know the risks and benefits related to a
given industry balancing of which either brings in or divests the investor’s attention.
26
Strength:
With over 1000 classifieds in the industry, it is
capable of meeting a wide set and variety of
needs of consumers.
There are more foreign players in the Indian
market than that of the local, meaning the
sectors has foreign investment flowing in huge.
The cost of labor involved in the sectors is far
low in comparison to the rest of the sectors.
With the recent rise in the popularity of the country, the flow of investments towards the
sectors is also hugely effected.
Weakness:
A strength is only as good as its weakness.
Real Estate owns almost 50% of the total project cost, against the 15% outside India.
The country has a higher tax rate structure inflating the business greatly.
The huge fluctuating market restrict the industry to grow at a faster pace, allowing a lot
of divestment than investment in the industry.
Opportunity:
The growing popularity of the country plays key role in the returns from Hotel Industry.
The unmatched and unexplored topographies of the country are yet to be explored.
27
As the holiday season varies for domestic and foreign tourists, the industry is under stable
business over the year.
Threats:
The bigger the risk, the bigger the profit. The focus is shifting towards owning a guest
house than renting a hotel, making the sector loose investments.
Political instability is only making situation worse to what already are for the industry.
As the country is still fighting on the losing side of the currency war, it’s becoming
difficult for the industry to train their staff for international standards.

INDUSTRY KEY SUCCESS FACTORS
Location- The hotel industry has traditionally focused on location as the most important
critical success factor. Despite the changes in the industry, location is still important. A
hotel located on a little-used highway is not likely to do very well, even if it offers
superior service and amenities. However, although location remains highly important,
other factors matter. Travelers used to take it for granted that hotel service would vary
significantly depending on location, but this is no longer the case.
Global Outlook-Even small, locally owned hotels need to be able to compete on an
international basis to be successful. Tourists deciding where to take their next vacation
can choose from destinations all over the world, and can easily research the quality of
local hotels when making their selection. If a hotel tries to compete solely on price and
location while a nearby competitor also emphasizes creating a quality experience for the
customer, then visitors will go to the latter. Hotel owners need to be aware of what hotels
all over the world are doing to attract new customers and earn their loyalty.
Quality Management-Quality management is multifaceted and goes beyond the concept
of customer service to include additional factors such as employee satisfaction and
involvement. A single random interaction with a hotel employee can make the difference
between a satisfied customer, an impressed customer or a customer who goes online and
writes a bad review about his hotel experience. By concentrating on employee
satisfaction as well as customer service, a hotel can increase the likelihood that all its
employees will provide excellent customer service as well.
Flexibility-Flexibility is a key factor in quality management as well as being a critical
success factor for the hotel industry. Customers can have completely different
expectations of a hotel, so managers need to be given the authority to make decisions to
accommodate them when possible. A manager hampered by an inflexible set of policies
may be unable to fix a customer problem and earn that customer's loyalty and good word
of mouth in the future. A manager with the authority to make exceptions when
appropriate is in a much better position to turn a situation around and earn a good
reputation for customer service and high quality.

RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS
Exhibit 13: Indian Hospitality Market Share
Fundamental Analysis of the business gives the insight of the working of the company and its
turnover and the research conducted on the companies helps to understand the current market
price of its share along with the way to analyze their credibility and profitability.
There is huge scope of earnings in this sector because recently the country has an inventory of
200000 rooms but the current need is the inventory of 100000 rooms. (Source: FHRAI). The
companies who are already in this sector are trying to extend their room inventory by making
more and more capex and giving focus on the pipeline inventory.
Taj Hotels and Resorts has the highest revenue among all the hotels in hospitality sector of the
company and is the best share to invest in. Apart from this its competitors like Oberoi hotels
and Hotel Leela are trying hard to compete with Taj hotels and gain the market share.
44
FINDINGS
1. The Indian hospitality sector is expected to witness high growth over the long term. The
next one or two years may be a phase of building before the high growth trajectory
emerges.
2. Domestic travel is expected to be the primary driver of the sector’s growth. High
disposable income and the advent of better locations are driving this growth.
3. Maximum investments are expected to take place in the Tier I towns followed by the Tier
II towns.
4. Talent management is a major challenge for the sector. Inadequate supply of quality
talent and increased competition for talent within the sector and from competing service
sectors has made attrition a significant issue for the industry.
“The sector shall continue to grow, this sector has a very stable life and long term outlook as the
asset itself takes 3 years to develop and 2-3 years to mature. Hence from vision to end it takes a
good five years.”
Vikram Kamat, Executive Director, Kamat Hotels (India) Limited
“India will emerge as a preferred tourism destination on world map with overall expected growth
of above 8% p.a., the later half of five years may witness growth of approximately 9% to 10%.”
Sanjay Gupta, Promoter and Chairman, Neesa Leisure Ltd.
“The domestic hotel industry is estimated to touch $1.8 billion by 2016, from $0.8 billion
presently, buoyed by rise in online bookings”

LEARNINGS
Arrangement of Financial Data- The basic learning during the internship was how to
arrange the data of the company from the past 10 years annual reports into a proper
format so that it can be further analyzed and some conclusion can be drawn from it at the
end and the report can be prepared on the stocks of that particular company.
Importance of Graphical Presentation- The data of the company holds some value if it
is presented graphically and then the analysts can draw some conclusion out of it.
Concalls highlights- The knowledge about the company’s future plans and the
guidelines of the future of the company can be obtained from the concalls that the
company’s management make while announcing its quarter as well as the annual results.
These guidelines are important because the company’s future earnings can be estimated
from it.
Awareness- an Analyst can perform the assigned task only by having the proper and
deep knowledge of the sector which is given to him. So having good contacts with the
experts from the sector and the key players of the sector help them a lot in achieving the
desired output.
47
CONCLUSION
Equity Research field is very complex in nature and being an analyst of a particular sector
requires deep dive into that sector and acquiring full information regarding each and every
happening of that sector. It not only involves the fundamental analysis of the company but a
further advanced analysis is required to advice the customers about the stocks which are perfect
to invest in.
Along with the quantitative analysis, full study of the company is required and the initial step is
to know about its corporate structure and the market cap to decide whether the company is worth
being analyzing or not.
Considering the hospitality sector, as the foreign tourist arrivals in India is increasing, so is the
need of rooms increasing. The current room inventory is insufficient to meet the demands of the
customers which clearly reflects the demand-supply gap. This simply reflects that the hotel
groups have not yet reached their full potential and can still earn lots and lots of revenue if the
scarce funds are properly invested and as they will be in need of more and more funds, so is the
availability of more shares of such hotel groups.
The institutional investors have the high chance of investment in this sector. In nutshell this
sector is good to invest in and investment in the top companies of this sector will definitely bring
the desired returns in the form of either dividend or the capital gain.
