India Strategy | India's PE movement: Politics to Economy

India's PE movement: Politics to Economy Banks dominate the earnings revival

Politics to dominate 1QFY20 narrative; Ex-Banking 4QFY19 earnings expected to be weak As we step into the new fiscal FY20, the backdrop for markets is dominated by

politics. The previous five years have seen the first government with fullmajority after 1989. India votes over the next 50 days and high-decibel politicalnoise will occupy the market’s attention as it struggles to figure out if the 17th

Lok Sabha will have another majority government or a coalition governmentwith one of the two national parties as a dominant partner or a coalitiongovernment of regional parties backed by one of the national party. Once thedust settles on politics in 1QFY20, we expect the market’s focus to revert tofundamentals. Narratives like earnings revival led by banking, global growth andcentral bank policies, rural consumption trends given the predictions of below-normal monsoons, and the inter-play of crude and currency will dominate thediscourse, in our view.

The market’s performance has been impressive so far in CY19, with the Niftyand the Nifty Mid-cap 100 delivering 7.4% and 2.1% returns, respectively. Thesharp underperformance of mid- and small-caps over Dec’17-Feb’19 has alsobeen arrested in Mar’19, with USD4.8b of FII inflows in the month. What isrelatively more comforting is the participation of broader markets in the rally, asagainst a very narrow nature of consolidation seen in Nifty over Dec’17-Feb’19,a point discussed in greater detail in one of our previous note.

The 4QFY19 earnings-report season will be a repeat of 3QFY19, with Financialsdriving the performance singlehandedly. Global Cyclicals – the driver of earningsgrowth over the last few quarters – have decelerated sharply.

Corporate banks will account for entire growth in the Nifty and the broaderMOFSL Universe’s earnings performance. PSU Banks will benefit from a benignYoY comparison due to a loss of INR241b in 4QFY18, even as profits stay flatsequentially. IT is likely to post the fifth straight quarter of double-digit profitgrowth, aided by momentum in deal activity. NBFCs might face significantdeceleration in profit growth, but still post a respectable double-digit number.

We expect MOFSL Universe PAT to grow 29% YoY, led by Financials and draggedby Metals. Global Cyclicals are likely to post a decline of 14% in profit, whileDefensives are expected to post flat profits YoY. Domestic Cyclicals will post 4xYoY jump in PAT. MOFSL ex-OMC and PSU Banks PAT growth is estimated at 2%.

We expect Nifty sales, EBITDA and PAT to increase by 11%, 2% and 15% on abase of 16%, 22% and 8% growth, respectively. Ex-Corporate Banks, Nifty profitsare expected to decline 2.7% YoY. Our Nifty EPS estimates for FY19/20 havebeen cut by 2.1%/3.6% to INR486/INR606 (prior: INR496/INR629). We are nowbuilding in EPS growth of 6.8%/24.8% for the Nifty for FY19/20. Excludingcorporate banks, FY20 Nifty profits are expected to grow 14%.

Top Picks Large-Caps: ICICI Bank, SBI, Maruti, Titan, Coal India, Bharti Airtel, L&T, Infosys, ACC. Mid-Caps: Federal Bank, Shriram Transport, Godrej Agrovet, Indian Hotels, Marico, IGL, Exide, Jindal Steel, Alkem Labs. Key sectoral trends/highlights Auto Universe is expected to report a 28% YoY PAT decline on a modest base

(6% YoY growth in base quarter) – a fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit PAT decline. Even after excluding Tata Motors, the Auto Universe is expected to post PAT decline of 16% YoY. We expect EBITDA margin to shrink by 180bp YoY to 11.4%, impacted by weak operating leverage (volumes continue softening across the board in 4QFY19) and higher variable marketing spend.

Technology will post another healthy set of numbers, with sales/EBITDA/PAT growth of 17.7%/18.1%/12.6%. This will be the fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit PAT growth. There is significant revenue acceleration amid strong momentum in deal activity; however, INR appreciation can act as a headwind. TCS is expected to account for 43% of incremental PAT of our Technology Universe.

Private Banks are expected to report a strong set of numbers (79% PAT growth – a multi quarter high), driving 20% of the entire PAT delta of our universe. Entire universe, barring IndusInd Bank (-45% YoY) and Yes Bank (-18% YoY), is expected to report double-digit earnings growth, with Axis Bank (loss to profit), Federal Bank (143% YoY) and ICICI Bank (112% YoY) leading the pack.

NBFCs are likely to post another quarter of double-digit growth (13% YoY), slowest since Mar’17. In recent times, 4QFY19 was one of the toughest quarters for most NBFCs under our coverage. While liquidity started improving toward end-3QFY19, a number of events (Cobrapost, Essel Group related, etc.) led to it tightening once again. Bajaj Finance is expected to post another strong quarter, with 40%+ profit growth. SHTF (81%), LTFH (46%), LIC HF (25%) and PNB HF (26%) are expected to deliver healthy profit growth, while MMFS, Chola, Indiabulls Housing Finance and Repco are expected to post subdued growth in profitability.

PSU Banks are expected to report second consecutive quarter of profit (led by lower slippages and a decline in provisioning requirement) after four consecutive quarters of losses, while Telecom is expected to report a loss for the seventh straight quarter. PSU Banks had posted a loss of INR241b in 4QFY18, and are now accounting for the entire profit growth of MOFSL Universe in 4QFY19.

Consumer Universe profits are expected to grow 7.8% YoY on a strong base (base quarter profits grew by 17% YoY), with United Spirits (-21% YoY), Pidilite (-6% YoY) and Godrej Consumer (-6% YoY) expected to post de-growth. United Breweries (24%), Marico (23%), Asian Paints (18%) and Britannia (13%) are expected to post a strong set of numbers. Management commentaries suggest a slight moderation in the demand environment. In Retail, Titan is expected to deliver another solid quarter (25% YoY).

Metals are expected to post PAT de-growth (-34% YoY) for the first time after eight quarters. Within our coverage universe, barring Hindalco, every other

company is expected to report an earnings decline. Metals had a stellar run in the last three years and profitability of our Metals Universe has more than tripled from INR135b in FY16 to INR459b in FY19.

Oil & Gas is expected to report a flattish profit, driven by a significant YoY decline at OMCs owing to lower GRM. ONGC is expected to report 26% PAT growth. Ex-OMCs, we expect 15% YoY growth in O&G profits.

Cement is expected to post 9% YoY profit growth on a strong base (24% YoY growth in 4QFY18), after delivering 18% growth in 3QFY19, with ACC (44%), JK Cement (39%) and Ramco Cements (19%) likely to lead the pack.

Capital Goods are expected to report sales/EBITDA/PAT growth of 9.6%/9.3%/9.3%, with Bluestar/Thermax/BHEL expected to lead the pack delivering 82%/29%/27 PAT growth. ABB, Bharat Electronics and Voltas are expected to post 40%/15%/9% PAT decline YoY.

Utilities sector is expected to report (-5%) PAT de-growth. Utilities ex Coal India is expected to post growth (1.6% YoY), with NHPC posting the biggest decline (53%) in our universe. Coal India is expected to post PAT de-growth after five quarters, dragging growth of the entire universe, whereas JSW Energy is expected to post a loss.

Healthcare is expected to deliver 15.8% PAT growth in 4QFY19 on a low base (5% YoY decline in 4QFY18). Large cap Cipla is expected to post flat YoY profit, while Dr. Reddy, Lupin and Sun are expected to report 36%, 19% and 7% YoY profit growth.

Model portfolio Improvement in the market sentiment led by strong FII flows in Feb-Mar’19 has

corrected the underperformance of beaten-down ‘value ’stocks to an extent. While the macro environment remains stable, the recent up-move in markets has made valuations somewhat expensive. Weak high frequency data and election risk ahead keep us calibrated in our portfolio stance. Our model portfolio continues to reflect our bias for earnings visibility and growth. Overall, we continue favoring Private Financials (with more emphasis on Corporate Banks), Consumer Discretionary, Industrials and select quality Mid-caps. We had highlighted the divergence of mid-caps v/s large-caps in our recent strategy report, and have turned incrementally more positive on mid-caps since then.

BFSI: We stay overweight on corporate banks and remain positive on ICICI Bank and Axis Bank. As a reflection of our confidence in the credit cycle having turned, we raise further weights in SBI. Credit cycle is showing clear recovery signs, as evident in the declining NPL formation (SBIN’s 3QFY19 slippage was the lowest in the past 13 quarters). The size of SMA-1&2 accounts at INR170.5b (<1% of advances) and the steady trends in core portfolio will drive a further improvement in asset quality over FY20/21, and hence, earnings. Amongst mid-size banks, our preferred picks are Ratnakar Bank and Federal Bank.

In NBFC, we replace LIC Housing Finance with Shriram Transport after the former’s sharp run-up. SHTF’s growth and return ratios have rebounded after three years of regulatory pain (due to NPL migration) and some impact of demonetization and GST. The company has managed its margins and asset quality well. It has navigated the stressed liquidity situation comfortably. Bulk of the loans generated is eligible for priority-sector lending, and hence, the

India Strategy | India's PE movement: Politics to Economy

company should be able to generate liquidity through sell-downs. ROEs have already improved to ~17% v/s the average of 12% over the past three years.

Consumer: We retain HUL and Titan in the model portfolio, given our structural positive view on both the names. We also maintain our positive view on Marico.

Information Technology: In IT, we maintain our positions in Infosys and Tech Mahindra. Valuations remain reasonable given the underlying cash return policy to shareholders. It also serves as defensive bastion in volatile markets.

Cement and Capital Goods: We are replacing Shree Cements with ACC. The profitability gap between ACC and its peers has narrowed significantly over the last few quarters. The company has also done well to manage costs through efforts such as increasing the proportion of linkage coal, reducing the lead distance and route optimization. The stock trades at an attractive valuation of 7.7x CY 20 EV/EBITDA. We are replacing Thermax with Siemens as increasing share of product business offers scope for margin improvement over the next five years. Valuations provide comfort as SIEM trades at a discount to its historical trading average as well as peers – 30% discount to its LTA.

Metals & Utilities: In Utilities, we are adding Coal India and replacing Power Grid with NTPC. Coal India has delivered 35% average earnings growth over FY17-19, driven by price hike, annual volume growth of 5% and operating leverage. Quality and wage hike related issues are now behind. Volume growth of 5-6%, operating leverage due to natural attrition and an increase in the share of e-auction volumes will drive up earnings over the next few years. Valuations are compelling at EV/EBITDA of 4x and P/E of 8x xFY20E, which is at a discount of ~40% to its historical trend. Dividend yield of 8% is quite attractive too. For NTPC, the CERC regulations 2019-24 have been very constructive and provide visibility for the next five years. Most of the issues that dragged the stock performance in the last 2-3 years have been addressed. Strong pipelines of projects provide visibility for earnings growth. We expect earnings CAGR of 19-20% along with 300bp improvement in RoE to 13% over FY19-21. The stock trades at attractive P/BV of 1.1x and P/E of 9.8x FY20.

Mid-caps: We are introducing Godrej Agrovet, Torrent Pharma and Alkem Labs in our model portfolio. In Torrent Power, we expect EBITDA CAGR of ~12% over FY19-21, led by Renewables and DF business. Torrent Power’s balance sheet position is comfortable (net debt: equity: ~1x) and it is well poised to capitalize on opportunities stemming from distribution privatization, thrust on RE, and consolidation in the conventional generation sector. Godrej Agrovet sights holistic growth going forward, driven by (a) crop protection – 10 expected product launches over 3-5 years and capacity expansion in triazole chemistry, (b) palm oil – to tap the opportunity arising out of GoI’s focus on promoting cultivation and (c) animal feed – low compound feed penetration and a decline in fodder availability to drive industry growth. Alkem Labs is in the process of ramping-up business from the chronic portfolio in the domestic formulation market. We expect ALKEM to deliver 15% CAGR in sales over FY19-21 in domestic branded business. With US business having reached breakeven, new launches would enable improved operating leverage, driving better profitability from the US business.

It’s all about Banks! Earnings headwinds emerging for FY20

CY19 has seen a change in market sentiment. Dovish global central bank action and commentary have aided emerging market trade. That, coupled with improving sentiment on politics post the Balakot air strike by Indian Air Force, has resulted in inflow of USD4.8b dollars in the month of Mar’19 alone. The significant underperformance of mid- and small-caps v/s large-caps since Dec’17 has been arrested in the last one month. The RBI, in its April’10 monetary policy, cut the repo rate by another 25bp and further lowered its inflation forecasts for 2HFY19 and 1HFY20. However, two key concerns in the near term are: [A] Weak high frequency indicators (IIP, auto numbers, core sector growth), which points toward growth risk ahead, and the outcome of general elections in May’19. A stable government with majority will ensure continuance of policy reforms and decision making and shift the focus back toward fundamentals. At the same time, emergence of third front coalition without either of the two national parties in the driver’s seat will muddy the waters as far as policy reform initiatives and decision making are concerned and result in elevated market volatility and pose macro risks (currency, twin deficits, yields), in our view.

Overall, as far as 4QFY19 earnings season is concerned, Financials will dominate the narrative, with Banking alone accounting for more than 100% of incremental YoY earnings in 4QFY19. The baton has well and truly shifted from Global Cyclicals to Domestic Cyclicals, as highlighted by us in our earlier Strategy previews. Autos remain weak, while Telecom is still posting losses.

Financials to drive earnings in 4QFY19 MOFSL Universe is expected to deliver earnings growth of 29% in 4QFY19, led by

Financials, even as Global Cyclicals (led by commodity price correction, Metals expected to post profit decline after eight quarters of stupendous performance) and Defensives are likely to drag the performance.

Approximately 33% of MOFSL Universe is expected to post a YoY decline in PAT, while 41% of the MOFSL Universe is expected to post >15% growth.

In 4QFY19, Domestic Cyclicals are likely to contribute 37% of the profit pool, followed by Global Cyclicals (35%) and Defensives (28%).

We expect MOFSL Universe revenue to grow 11% YoY in the quarter (revenue grew 15% YoY in the base quarter) – lower than 21% growth in 3QFY19, largely due to (a) moderation in commodity prices, which is leading Metals to post nine-quarter low YoY top-line growth and (b) across-the-board slowdown in Automobiles, which is expected to post flat revenue growth.

MOFSL Universe EBITDA growth is estimated at 4% YoY, with the operating margin ex-Financials and OMCs compressing by 150bp YoY to 18.7%.

Global Cyclicals are expected to post second consecutive quarter of PAT de-growth (-14% YoY) after five consecutive quarters of double-digit growth. Global Cyclicals were driving a lion’s share of MOFSL Universe PAT delta in the previous quarters. As we highlighted in our 3QFY19 Strategy preview report, the baton of earnings growth has shifted to Domestic Cyclicals and predominantly Financials, as Automobiles performance remains subdued (expect third consecutive quarter of 20%+ YoY earnings decline for MOFSL Auto universe).

India Strategy | India's PE movement: Politics to Economy

Defensives are expected to post flattish set of numbers (-1% YoY PAT), as Telecom universe is expected to post another quarter of losses, offsetting the healthy performance by IT (13% PAT growth, fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth) and Consumer (8% YoY profit growth).

For 4QFY19, Domestic Cyclicals’ EBITDA and PAT are expected to grow by 13% and ~4x YoY, respectively, driven by Financials. Domestic Cyclicals had posted a decline of 62% YoY in profit in 4QFY18.

Earnings breadth remains weak; Domestic Cyclicals to drive earnings Earnings breadth is expected to remain similar to 3QFY19, with 33% of MOFSL

Universe likely posting a YoY decline in PAT. The number of companies expected to report growth (>30%) has declined from 30% to 23%, while that of companies expected to report growth (0-15%) is expected to increase to 26%.

Global Cyclicals (Metals and Oil & Gas) have taken backstage in 4QFY19 and have paved way for Domestic Cyclicals and in particular Financials to drive earnings growth.

Apart from Financials, IT and FMCG are expected to contribute to incremental earnings in 4QFY19. Autos will post a 28% YoY decline in earnings, while Telecom will post another quarter of elevated losses, dragging the aggregate performance.

Snapshot of sector performance Auto Universe is expected to report a 28% YoY PAT decline on a modest base

(6% YoY growth in base quarter) – a fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit PAT decline. Even after excluding Tata Motors, the Auto Universe is expected to post PAT decline of 16% YoY. We expect EBITDA margin to shrink by 180bp YoY to 11.4%, impacted by weak operating leverage (volumes continue softening across the board in 4QFY19) and higher variable marketing spend.

Technology will post another healthy set of numbers, with sales/EBITDA/PAT growth of 17.7%/18.1%/12.6%. This will be the fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit PAT growth. There is significant revenue acceleration amid strong momentum in deal activity; however the INR appreciation can act as a headwind. TCS is expected to account for 43% of incremental PAT of our Technology Universe.

Private Banks are expected to report a strong set of numbers (79% PAT growth-multi quarter high), driving 20% of the entire PAT delta of our universe. Entire universe barring IndusInd Bank (-45% YoY) and Yes Bank (-18% YoY) is expected to report double-digit earnings growth, with Axis Bank (loss to profit), Federal Bank(143% YoY) and ICICI Bank (112% YoY) leading the pack.

NBFCs are likely to post another quarter of double-digit growth (13% YoY), slowest since Mar’17. In recent times, 4QFY19 was one of the toughest quarters for most NBFCs under our coverage. While liquidity started improving toward end-3QFY19, a number of events (Cobrapost, Essel Group related, etc.) led to it tightening once again. Bajaj Finance is expected to post another strong quarter, with 40%+ profit growth. SHTF (81%), LTFH (46%), LIC HF (25%) and PNB HF (26%) are expected to deliver healthy profit growth, while MMFS, Chola, Indiabulls Housing Finance and Repco are expected to post subdued growth in profitability.

PSU Banks are expected to report second consecutive quarter of profit (led by lower slippages and a decline in provisioning requirement) after four consecutive quarters of losses, while Telecom is expected to report a loss for the seventh straight quarter. PSU Banks had posted a loss of INR241b in 4QFY18, and are now accounting for the entire profit growth of MOFSL Universe in 4QFY19.

Metals are expected to post PAT de-growth (-34% YoY) for the first time after eight quarters. Within our coverage universe, barring Hindalco, every other company is expected to report an earnings decline. Metals had a stellar run in the last three years and profitability of our Metals Universe has more than tripled from INR135b in FY16 to INR459b in FY19.

Oil & Gas is expected to report a flattish profit, driven by a significant YoY decline at OMCs owing to lower GRM. ONGC is expected to report 26% PAT growth. Ex-OMCs, we expect 15% YoY growth in O&G profits.

Cement is expected to post 9% YoY profit growth on a strong base (24% YoY growth in 4QFY18), after delivering 18% growth in 3QFY19, with ACC (44%), JK Cement (39%) and Ramco Cements (19%) likely to lead the pack.

Capital Goods are expected to report sales/EBITDA/PAT growth of 9.6%/9.3%/9.3%, with Bluestar/Thermax/BHEL expected to lead the pack delivering 82%/29%/27 PAT growth. ABB, Bharat Electronics and Voltas are expected to post 40%/15%/9% PAT decline YoY.

Utilities sector is expected to report (-5%) PAT de-growth. Utilities ex Coal India is expected to post growth (1.6% YoY), with NHPC posting the biggest decline (53%) in our universe. Coal India is expected to post PAT de-growth after five quarters, dragging growth of the entire universe, whereas JSW Energy is expected to post a loss.

Healthcare is expected to deliver 15.8% PAT growth in 4QFY19 on a low base (5% YoY decline in 4QFY18). Large cap Cipla is expected to post flat YoY profit, while Dr. Reddy, Lupin and Sun are expected to report 36%, 19% and 7% YoY profit growth.

Domestic Cyclicals’ share in MOFSL Universe earnings would be at 37%, while Global Cyclicals/Defensives would account for 31%/29% respectively.

Nifty sales/EBITDA/PAT are expected to grow by 11%/2%/15% in 4QFY19. Nifty EPS cut 2.1%/3.6% for FY19/20: Our FY19/20 Nifty EPS estimates have

been cut by 2.1%/3.6% to INR486/INR606 (prior: INR496/INR629). We are now building in EPS growth of 6.8%/24.8% for the Nifty for FY19/20. Excluding corporate banks, FY20 Nifty profits are expected to grow 14%. For FY20, major earnings upgrades are in BPCL (15%), IOC (12%), Yes Bank (9%), Bharti Infratel (7%) and Grasim Industries (5%), while the major earnings downgrades are in Tata Motors (-29%), Vedanta (-19%), Eicher Motors (12%), Cipla (-12%) and Sun Pharma (-12%).

With 29% growth, MOFSL Universe absolute PAT to be at all-time high 4QFY19 earnings are expected to be driven by Domestic Cyclicals, which are

likely to post 4x growth in YoY PAT, led by depressed base owing to Financials. The share of Defensives, Domestic Cyclicals and Global Cyclicals in the profit pool stands at 28%, 37% and 35%, respectively.

Global Cyclicals are expected to post de-growth, whereas Defensives are expected to post flattish growth (-0.6% YoY).

India Strategy | India's PE movement: Politics to Economy

Exhibit 11: Sectoral PAT growth YoY in 4QFY19 (%)

Exhibit 12: Sectoral PAT growth QoQ in 4QFY19 (%)

Exhibit 13: Approximately 33% of the companies are likely to report PAT decline, while 23% of the companies are expected to post >30% PAT growth

41% of the companies would grow at >15% YoY, and 23% of the Universe would report >30% PAT growth. 33% of the Universe would report PAT de-growth.

Banks to account for more than 100% of 4QFY19 incremental earnings YoY Domestic Cyclicals are expected to post multi-quarter-high earnings growth of

295% YoY, led by Financials, even as Auto universe posts its fourth consecutive quarter YoY PAT decline.

Global Cyclicals are expected to post an earnings decline of 14% YoY after five consecutive quarters of double-digit growth, as commodity price correction impacts the profit pool of Metals. Metals Universe is expected to post de-growth after eight consecutive quarters of PAT growth.

Defensives are expected to post flattish PAT numbers (-0.6% YoY), with Telecom expected to post continued elevated losses (loss of INR 41b expected in 4QFY19e), offsetting the performance by the IT (13% PAT growth, fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth) and Consumer (8% growth).

April 2019 15

India Strategy | India's PE movement: Politics to Economy

Share of Global Cyclicals in earnings moderate QoQ Domestic Cyclicals appear to be the key drivers of PAT growth in 2HFY19, with

their share rising to 34% of aggregate PAT in FY19 (v/s 26% of FY18) and accounting for 91% of incremental PAT growth.

Consequently, we expect the share of Cyclicals to increase to 71% in FY19 from 67% in FY18.

Share of Domestic Cyclicals in MOFSL Universe (Excl OMCs) earnings at 40%

Exhibit 17: PAT share of Domestic Cyclicals will be at 40%, up from 13% in 4QFY18

Defensives includes Consumer, Healthcare, Technology, Telecom and Utilities Global cyclicals includes Metals, Oil & Gas and JLR Domestic cyclicals includes Automobiles, Banks, Capital Goods, Infrastructure, Cement, Media, NBFCs, Real Estate and Retail

Nifty expected to post 15% profit growth, aided by corporate banks, but dragged by Automobiles Nifty PAT is likely to grow at 15% in 4QFY19 on a moderate base (8% growth in

the base quarter). Excluding OMCs, Nifty PAT growth is expected at 19%. Corporate banks are singularly driving the Nifty profit growth. Excluding

corporate banks – SBI, ICICI, Axis Bank – the Nifty is expected to post a 2.7% YoY PAT decline for 4QFY19.

Sales is expected to grow 11% YoY (16% YoY growth in base quarter), a sharp moderation v/s 23% in 3QFY19. This is largely owing to deceleration in top-line growth in commodities like Metals and O&G and broad-based demand deceleration in Automobiles.

Nifty EBITDA is expected to grow 2%. Excluding OMCs, Nifty EBITDA is expected to increase 5% YoY.

16 Nifty companies are expected to report a YoY decline in PAT. Bharti Airtel is the only company expected to post a loss in 4QFY19.

India Strategy | India's PE movement: Politics to Economy

Banks to decide Nifty earnings trajectory in FY20 Auto emerging as new headwind for earnings MOFSL FY19 earnings growth at 13%; FY20 growth estimated at 26% led by

Financials: We expect FY19 revenue growth for our MOFSL Universe to come in at 20% (v/s 5.2% CAGR over FY15-18). This will be the third consecutive year of double-digit revenue growth. The top-line performance is likely to be driven by broad-based growth across sectors. We expect EBITDA margin for the MOFSL Universe (ex-OMCs, Financials) to contract by 70bp to 18.3% in FY19. We expect profits to grow 13% YoY for the MOFSL Universe, aided by a low base (flat earnings in FY18 due to losses in PSU Banks). Ex-PSU banks, MOFSL Universe is likely to deliver 5% profit growth in FY19. Financials alone account for 82% of incremental profits (60% is contributed by PSU Banks, 13% by Private Banks), while Metals, and Technology are expected to post 16% and 14% PAT growth, respectively. As far as FY20 is concerned, we expect MOFSL Universe to post sales/EBITDA /PAT growth of 11%/15%/26%. Deceleration in sales growth in FY20 is owing to moderation in top-line growth of commodities like Metals and O&G. Financials are expected to contribute 55% of incremental earnings in FY20. Ex-Financials, earnings growth for FY20 for MOFSL Universe is expected to be 14%.

Nifty profits to grow 9.8% in FY19; Corporate banks to drive Nifty profit growth of 22% in FY20: Nifty sales are expected to deliver healthy 21% YoY growth in FY19. Nifty EBITDA and PAT are expected to grow 11.4% and 9.8% in FY19, with an estimated CAGR (FY18-20) of 13% and 16%, respectively. In FY19, 44% of incremental profit growth in the Nifty is expected to be contributed by corporate lenders like Axis Bank and SBI. These banks, along with ONGC and TCS, contribute 84% of the PAT delta for FY19. FY20 Nifty sales/EBITDA/PAT are expected to grow 10%/14%/22%. Ex-Corporate Banks (ICICI, SBI, AXIS), we expect Nifty FY20 profits to grow 14%. Banks and Autos are expected to account for 57% and 11%, respectively, of incremental Nifty earnings in FY20.

Exhibit 23: Expect Nifty ex corporate lenders PAT CAGR of 10% over FY18-20

MOFSL Universe to post 13% earnings growth in FY19 aided by a low base For MOFSL Universe, we estimate FY19 PAT growth of 13% (on a flat base of

FY18), led by a recovery in Financials in 2HFY19. All sectors – barring Telecom, Infrastructure, Oil & Gas and Autos – are expected

to post double-digit PAT growth.

Exhibit 24: Nifty EPS – expect 16% CAGR over FY18-20, significantly higher than the 5% CAGR over FY08-18

Nifty EPS cut 2.1%/3.6% for FY19/20 Our FY19/20 Nifty EPS estimates have been cut by 2.1%/3.6% to INR486/INR606

(prior: INR496/INR629). We are now building in EPS growth of 6.8%/24.8% for the Nifty for FY19/20. Excluding corporate banks, we are expecting 14% profit growth for the Nifty in FY20.

Markets bid adieu to FY19 in style India top performer among global markets; FII flows weakest in three years

There couldn’t have been a better finish to FY19 as the Nifty rallied by an impressive 7.7% in March to close at 11,624 (+15% YoY), within a whisker of an all-time high. The last time the benchmark did this well in a month was way back three years ago.

In FY19, the Nifty Midcap100 (-2.7% YoY) underperformed the Nifty (+14.9% YoY) significantly, largely due to the unsustainable valuation premium of mid-caps to large-caps and the lack of pick-up in earnings growth.

In FY19, India-Nifty (+15%), Brazil (+12%), the US (+7%) and the UK (+3%) were the key global markets to close higher in local currency terms. On the other hand, Korea (-12%), MSCI EM (-10%), China-HSCIE (-5%), Taiwan (-2) and Japan (-1%) ended lower.

India’s share in the world market cap is at 2.8%, above its historical average of 2.5%. In FY19, the world’s market cap decreased 3.5% (USD2.8t), while India’s market cap was down 1.6%.

In the sectoral space, Private Banks (+34%), PSU Banks (+28%), Technology (+26%), Consumer (+14%) and Healthcare (+10%) were the top performers for FY19. Media (-25%), Autos (-22%), Metals (-15%) and Real Estate (-7%) were the key laggards.

Market breadth remained mixed in FY19, with 28 Nifty stocks closing higher. Bajaj Finance (+71%), Reliance Industries (+54%), Axis Bank (+52%), ICICI Bank (+43%) and TCS (+40%) were the top performers. Tata Motors (-47%), Vedanta (-34%), Indiabulls Hsg (-31%), Hero Moto (-28%) and Eicher (-28%) were the top laggards.

FII flows were muted at USD0.2b in FY19 – weakest in three years. Notably, at USD4.8b, FII inflows in March were the highest since Mar’17.

DII inflows were at USD10.3b (domestic MF inflows of USD12.5b and DII (ex-MFs) outflows of USD2.2b).

Nifty P/E is valued at 19x, above its historical average of 17.7x. At 2.8x, the Nifty P/B is also above its historical average. Market-cap-to-GDP at 81% (FY19E GDP) is also above its long-term average.

Valuations above long-period averages Nifty P/E is valued at 19x, above its historical average of 17.7x. At 2.8x, the Nifty P/B is also above its historical average. Market-cap-to-GDP at

81% (FY19E GDP) is also above its long-term average.

Exhibit 46: India’s market cap to GDP (%)

Mid-caps underperform large-caps; premium v/s large-caps comes off In FY19, the Nifty Midcap100 (-2.7% YoY) underperformed the Nifty (+14.9%

YoY) significantly, largely due to the unsustainable valuation premium of mid-caps to large-caps and the lack of pick-up in earnings growth. Currently, valuation premium of mid-caps versus large-caps stands at 3%.

Exhibit 48: Midcaps v/s Nifty P/E (x) – 12-month forward

Exhibit 49: Midcaps trading at 3% premium to Nifty

Sector valuations: Banks, Technology outperform; Autos underperform Elevated valuations, coupled with challenging macros and a busy political

calendar, kept the market range-bound in FY19. PSBs are trading at a P/B of 1.0x, in line with the historical average of 0.9x.

Valuations for PSBs have recovered gradually on the back of the recent capital infusion by the government and the prospects of stronger earnings. Overall valuations still remain in line with the long-term average, and an earnings bounce-back is anticipated from FY20.

Technology trades at a P/E of 18.5x, at a 13% premium to the historical average of 16.4x. Our interaction with various companies indicates sustained momentum in deal activity as of now, but the threat of unpleasant macros is also not unreal. Valuations for mid-cap IT have cooled off in comparison to larger peers in 9MFY19. Tier-II IT trades at a 17% discount to Tier-I P/E (notably, it was trading at a peak premium of 12% nine months ago).

Auto sector is trading at a P/E of 17.3x, at a 4% premium to its historical average of 16.6x. PV volumes remained weak for the ninth consecutive month, with no signs of a broad-based recovery yet.

Demand trends remain weak across segments OEMs facing margin pressures for the third straight quarter

All auto segments faced demand headwinds in 4QFY19 – a trend similar to theprevious quarter. Increased ownership cost and stress at the farm level hamperedbuying sentiment, particularly in 2Ws/PVs.

EBITDA margin for our OEM (ex-JLR) universe is likely to contract for the thirdconsecutive quarter by 120bp YoY (+30bp QoQ) to 12% due to negative operatingleverage and higher variable marketing expenses. While almost all OEMs (except TVSLand TTMT S/A) are likely to see YoY margin contraction, MSIL, AL and BJAUT areexpected to deliver a QoQ margin recovery of 220bp, 80bp and 40bp, respectively.

We have lowered our FY20/21 EPS estimates for EIM (12%/6%), TVSL (10%/17%),TTMT (23%/19.5%), ENDU (4%/8%) and MSS (8%/9%).

Increased ownership cost and farm stress continue hurting demand, particularly in PVs/2Ws: All auto segments faced demand headwinds even in 4QFY19, continuing the trend of weak retails in the previous quarter. Not only increased ownership cost but also stress at the farm level hampered buying sentiment, particularly in 2Ws/PVs. Consequently, inventories were at record levels across segments (highest in the 2W segment at 60-70 days).

Negative op. leverage, higher variable marketing spend to exert margin pressures for third consecutive quarter: EBITDA margin for our Auto OEM (ex-JLR) universe is likely to contract by 120 bp YoY (+30 bp QoQ) to 12% due to negative operating leverage and an increase in variable marketing expenses. All OEMs are likely to witness margin contraction on a YoY basis – BJAUT (-320bp), MM (-360bp), EIM (-280bp), HMCL (-240bp), MSIL (-220bp) and AL (-70bp) – barring TVSL (+30bp) and TTMT S/A (+230bp). Consequently, PAT is expected to decline (by a significant 20% YoY or 11.5% QoQ) for the first time in seven quarters.

Expect better demand trend from 2QFY20, but FY20 could be mixed bag: We expect the demand environment to only improve from 2QFY20 with pre-buy to kick start ahead of BS-6 implementation; however, the strategy around BS4 inventory management in 4QFY20 will determine the overall FY20 performance. The increase in regulatory cost to comply with BS6 emission norms is likely to take a toll on demand post FY20, as players will have to pass on the higher cost to consumers to tackle the consequent pressure on margins. The impact is likely to be significant on 2Ws and CVs but limited on PVs. We estimate 5-6% CAGR for 2Ws, 6-7% for 4Ws, 1-2% for CVs and 6-7% for tractors over FY19-21 (assuming normal monsoon).

Valuation and view Near-term headwinds notwithstanding, our preference remains for PVs over CVs/2Ws as it would be least impacted by BS-6 transition as well as stable competitive environment, in turn reflecting in strong earnings growth. Our top picks in autos are MSIL and MSS among large caps, and ENDU and EXID among midcaps.

Consequently, net revenue is likely to increase 1.7% YoY (+41% QoQ) to INR89.2b.

EBITDA margin is likely to contract 70bp YoY (+80 bp QoQ) to 11.1%, led by the product mix impact.

Exhibiting signs of an operational improvement Strong execution momentum to continue, helped by strong backlogs

Most companies in our coverage universe should report double-digit revenuegrowth; at an aggregate level, we expect 10% revenue growth; supported bypick-up and smooth execution of domestic projects.

Operating profit margin at an aggregate level is expected at 12.8% v/s 12.9% in4QFY18, despite most companies facing multiple headwinds, such as (a) inputprice pressure, (b) adverse foreign exchange movement, and (c) highcompetitive intensity. Cost rationalization measures undertaken by companiesat large also supported margins.

We continue to maintain positive stance on L&T, Cummins and Thermax in theIndustrials space, whereas on the Electronic Consumer Durables front, Havellsand Crompton remain our top picks.

Double-digit revenue growth supported by improved order execution Domestic execution has now started to witness traction after the hiccups felt post implementation of structural reforms like the GST. We expect companies from our coverage universe to register 10% revenue growth at an aggregate level. Industrials and Engineering companies are likely to witness healthy revenue growth, backed by smooth execution of projects in hand. For Electrical Consumer Durable companies, 9MFY19 has been weak given the muted demand for the RAC segment, which has impacted operational performance of companies like Voltas and Blue Star. The same trend is expected to continue in 4QFY19, given the weak demand for unitary cooling products (UCP) segment.

Operating margins to remain stable led by cost rationalization measures Operating margins are expected to remain stable despite multiple headwinds like (a) input price pressure, (b) adverse foreign exchange movement, and (c) high competitive intensity faced by the industry. Cost rationalization measures taken by the companies at large also supported margins. Operating profit margins at an aggregate level is expected at 12.8% v/s 12.9% in 4QFY18. Net profit at the sector level is expected to grow 9% YoY.

Adverse forex movement to impact MNCs, consumer durable companies INR depreciation of 9% YoY against the USD can potentially have a negative impact on the earnings of companies like Siemens, ABB, and GE T&D, which rely on its parent company for import of critical components. Even companies like Voltas and Blue Star could experience a potential negative impact given its reliance on import of compressor and indoor units from China.

Approaching general elections to slow fresh government orders Over the last few years, the capex cycle in India has been supported by government spending on infrastructure projects like roads, railways and power T&D sector. But, private sector capex has remained subdued given the underutilization of assets created by companies historically.

However, with the impending general elections, even government capex has started witnessing a lull. The recently released CMIE capex data for FY19 showed new project announcements at -17% YoY.

Though the near-term outlook remains subdued, we note that policy initiatives have been undertaken to (i) expedite regulatory approvals, and (ii) establish monetary conditions conducive to industrial capex revival over the medium term.

We believe investment revival would be triggered by (i) sustained recovery inconsumption demand, and thus, capacity utilization; and (ii) investment push bythe public sector, leading to a virtuous cycle of cash flow generation.By initiating GST, labor and energy sector reforms, the Indian government haspartly addressed concerns about the pace and extent of reforms.Implementation of substantive reforms is essential for structured investmentgrowth.

Ordering activity supported by a select few sectors Overall, ordering activity has started to see signs of a pick-up, driven by ordering

from Steel, Cement, Fertilizers, and Oil & Gas sectors. Government awarding has been a pillar of support for industrial and engineering

companies. Sector-wise, roads, railways, and water segments registered strongtendering activity (fiscal allocations for roads/railways have increased).

ABBCMP: INR1,323 TP: INR1,175 (-11%) Sell On reported basis, we expect a revenue decline of 32% YoY as the

power grid business, which constitutes 40% of the revenue hasnow been segregated from the company. Continued business ofautomation and electrification products is expected to register 14%growth YoY.

We expect EBITDA margin to decline 140bp to 6.1%; EBIDTA onreported basis is expected to decline 44% on YoY basis to INR1.1b.

Net profit is expected to decline 40% YoY to INR617m. However, onlike-to-like basis, the growth is expected to be robust (Difficult toquantify as base numbers are not available, post re-segmentation).Maintain Sell.

Key issue to watch Management commentary suggests cautious optimism, continued

Bharat ElectronicsCMP: INR101 TP: INR115 (+15%) Buy Order inflow for FY19 stood at INR232b (+132% YoY). Order inflow

was supported by finalization of LRSAM, Kerala fiber opticsnetwork, smart city projects, integrated perimeter securitysolution, weapon repair facility for naval ships, and naval airfieldintegrated security system.

Order backlog stands at record high level of INR516b providingstrong revenue visibility of 4.4x its FY19 revenue.

Provisional Revenue for FY19 stood at INR11.7b (+16% YoY),implying 4QFY19 revenue of INR37b (+7.5% YoY), broadly in linewith our estimates. Exports revenue stood at INR1.3% of itsrevenue (USD22m).

We expect EBITDA margin of 19.5% for 4QFY19 v/s 22.1% in4QFY18, given the adverse revenue mix (contribution from low-margin EVM machines). EBITDA is likely to decline 5% YoY toINR7.6b.

PAT is expected to decline 15% YoY to INR4.8b. Maintain Buy.

Key issue to watch Akash missile, IACCS, Ship-borne EW systems and EVM orders are

VoltasCMP: INR623 TP: INR605 (-3%) Neutral VOLT is likely to report revenue growth of 8% YoY, supported by

growth in EMP and the Engineering segment. We expect revenue growth of 11% YoY in the MEP segment,

supported by swift execution of orders in hand. Sustainability ofmargins will be a key challenge in the segment. VOLT had bookedEBIT margins of 8.0% in 3QFY19 supported by INR depreciationand execution of better margin RE orders.

We expect revenue growth of 6% in the UCP segment for 4QFY19. We expect operating profit to register 2% YoY decline to INR2.5b

despite revenue growth of 8% YoY, as we bake in margincompression in the Engineering Product and Services segment.

We expect net profit to decline 9% YoY to INR1.7b given highershare of losses in its JVs/associates (INR96.7m v/s INR25.3m4QFY18). Maintain Neutral.

Characterized by healthy realization and lower cost South-based companies to benefit significantly

Demand growth moderating after a strong 9MFY19 We expect companies under our coverage to report volume growth of ~6% YoY in 4QFY19. Notably, this will follow a healthy volume growth phase (+14% in 9MFY19 for coverage universe), led by a low base and healthy demand from government projects.

The southern region – which was primarily driving demand – witnessed a slowdown in Feb-Mar’19 on account of a high base of the previous year. Also, huge price increases taken by southern players led to lower volumes, as the hikes were not completely absorbed by the market. Demand in Rajasthan declined drastically after the state elections. Demand in central India too remained muted after the elections in Madhya Pradesh. The eastern region witnessed limited supply from southern players in 4QFY19. Supply of clinker was also affected due to shortage of wagons.

We expect (a) pan-India players (ACC and Ambuja) to report volume growth of 5-7% YoY and UTCEM to deliver growth of 5% YoY, (b) SRCM to report 9% YoY volume growth and (c) south-based companies(TRCL and ICEM) to report 5-10% volume growth.

We estimate volume growth at 11% for FY19, as demand for 9MFY19 remained healthy, led by increased infrastructure activities and affordable housing programs.

Price hikes taken in Feb’19 moderated in Mar’19 In Feb’19, south-based companies announced price hikes to the extent of INR30-50/bag. While Chennai saw a sustainable INR30/bag hike, the quantum was ~INR50/bag for Hyderabad, Bangalore and Kerala.

Cement production in the region was also curtailed with companies deciding not to sell OPC cement (an ordinary portland cement with lower margins). Also, blending OPC cement with fly-ash and selling it at a lower price by unorganized players was rampant in the south. However, this practice was controlled as organized players decided to not supply OPC cement to smaller players. Overall prices improved by INR45/bag MoM in Feb’19 in the southern region.

However, these hikes couldn’t sustain as Mar’19 approached because of selling pressure due to the year-end impact and the lack of demand. As a result, prices corrected to the extent of INR20/bag in Hyderabad, Kerala and Bangalore, while they remained constant in Chennai. Increase in prices in the south was 5% QoQ in 4QFY19.

The Delhi-NCR region witnessed a hike of INR20/bag in Feb’19 in the non-trade segment. Prices in the north increased by 1% QoQ.

Prices increased 5% QoQ in the west (led by healthy prices in Pune/Maharashtra), remained flat QoQ in the east and increased 2% QoQ in the central region in 4QFY19. All India cement prices increased 3% QoQ.

Cost pressures easing out Petcoke prices declined 3% QoQ (up ~8% YoY) in 4QFY19. Prices of imported coal (adjusted for USD/INR) also decreased 13% QoQ. This should result in lower power & fuel cost for the companies. Additionally, the decrease in diesel prices (-6% QoQ) would result in lower freight cost for the companies. We, thus, expect a lower cost curve in 4QFY19. EBITDA/ton is likely to be higher (by INR152 QoQ) for our coverage companies.

Top picks: Shree Cement and ACC Shree Cement’s superior execution capabilities would enable it to achieve RoIC of over 30% (FY20), while its gross block to capacity has been structurally trending downward. Also, ACC – which is on a growth capex mode – seems to be narrowing its profitability gap with peers, led by its higher proportion of (a) premium sales and (b) sales from its new cost-efficient units of Jamul and Sindri.

Moderation in sales likely for the quarter Lowest PAT growth in seven quarters likely, rural to outpace urban growth again

APNT/MRCO/BRIT/HUVR to report healthy earnings in a weak environment Various industry players have cited a relatively weak environment in 4QFY19. However, companies believe that government schemes aimed at boosting consumption, particularly in rural India, will likely revive demand 1QFY20 onward. Meanwhile, 4QFY19 top-line numbers are likely to be muted due to relative moderation in volume growth and low price realization as a result of tepid material costs/and or promotion spends. Rural growth is likely to outpace urban growth YoY for the seventh consecutive quarter in 4QFY19, but the extent of outperformance is likely to moderate (was ~1.3x in earlier quarters). On the margins front, the pressures are likely to abate in 4QFY19 (unlike the previous quarter) due to a decline in material costs. Aggregate sales are likely to grow at 11.7% YoY, while EBITDA/PAT growth is estimated at 11.3%/7.8%. Aggregate PAT growth is likely to come in lowest in seven quarters.

HUVR’s sales growth is expected to come in at ~9.5% YoY (with 8% volume growth). Lower material costs and cost savings are likely to drive EBITDA growth of 14.4% YoY and adj. PAT growth of 11.9%. We expect ITC to report 7% cigarette volumes increase, driving sales growth of 13.6% YoY and PAT growth of 8.9% YoY. Strong all-round numbers are expected from APNT. Emami, Dabur, GCPL, Jyothy and Colgate are likely to report tepid numbers (PAT growth between -5% to +5%). Marico is expected to report double-digit sales growth and over 20% PAT growth owing to margin expansion. UNSP is likely to report weak top line as a result of a delay in passing on excise increase in Maharashtra and up-stocking in Karnataka in the base.

Commodity costs are largely benign For 4QFY19, PFAD prices declined by 21.4% YoY but increased marginally QoQ. Mentha prices declined 5.3% QoQ but were still up 12.2% YoY. Barring wheat (for which prices were down sequentially by 2.2% but up 14.7% YoY), many agri commodities saw a decline in prices YoY – e.g. sugar (-3.1%), palm oil (-18.7%) and cashew (-8.0%). Barley costs were flat QoQ but up sharply 29.5% YoY. Copra costs declined in double-digits YoY. VAM costs declined in double-digits YoY, but Pidilite will benefit only in subsequent quarters. Molasses costs remained benign.

Preference for quality and longevity of growth Our framework for earnings visibility, longevity of growth and quality management drives our choices in the sector universe. We continue preferring BRIT, HUVR and MRCO. We recently upgraded UNSP to Buy owing to favorable risk-reward after price correction. The FY20 outlook on industry growth appears robust, and medium-term margin expansion triggers are intact. We downgraded UBBL (now rated Neutral), for which we believe the best in terms of earnings growth (especially on margin improvement) is in the past, which, along with fair valuations, will limit upside.

Earnings set to improve driven by corporate banks Margins to remain stable; Deposits traction – a key monitorable

Corporate banks to drive earnings recovery; expect 79% YoY PAT growth forprivate banks: We expect banking system earnings to pick up sharply, led bystable/expanding NIMs, moderate credit costs, stability in fee income andtreasury book. Margin cycle is set to recover as loan book re-prices over FY19,offsetting the impact of higher cost of funds. We expect private banks to report~79% YoY PAT growth, led by a sharp pick-up in profitability of AXSB and ICICIBCas the provisioning requirement moderates. However, PAT growth is likely toremain muted at ~2% QoQ, as banks will be making higher provisioning towardsIL&FS exposure (like IIB) and the resolution of key NCLT cases is getting delayed.PSU banks will likely report PAT growth of ~2% QoQ on the back of lowerslippages and a decline in the provisioning requirement, though we remainoptimistic on the earnings trajectory during FY20/21E.

NII to grow at 21%/19% YoY for private/PSU banks; mid-sized private banks tomaintain strong traction: We expect private banks to record NII growth of21.3% YoY, led by stronger growth in mid-sized private banks – IIB (~20% YoY),YES (~28% YoY) and RBL Bank (~40% YoY). SFBs Equitas and AUBANK wouldcontinue reporting healthy growth of 39% and 32%, respectively. Among PSUs,PNB/BOB/SBIN are expected to report strong ~45%/23%/15% YoY growth in NII,while INBK is likely to report modest growth.

Systemic credit growth at five-year high; private banks to maintain steadymomentum: Systemic credit growth has remained strong and recovered to afive-year-high of ~14.5% YoY, driven by (a) strong growth in the retail/servicessegment, (b) pick-up in industrial growth (5.1% YoY), and (c) the recent liquiditycrisis witnessed by NBFCs, which led to incremental credit disbursements andportfolio buyouts by the banks. We expect loan growth to remain steady, led bycontinued strength in the retail segment, portfolio buyouts from NBFCs due tosustained funding pressure, the government’s recent capital infusion in PSUbanks, and the RBI’s decision to bring six banks out of PCA.

Stance on IL&FS exposure is to be watched for; bond yields largely stable: Mostbanks have downgraded their exposure towards IL&FS holding co and have madeadequate provisions on the same. However, exposure toward the SPVs was keptstandard by some banks. With the NCLAT now giving the relaxation for notdeclaring these accounts as NPA, the stance of banks toward these accountswould be a key monitorable – though we expect status quo to sustain. Bond yieldshave remained largely stable over 4QFY19 while capital markets have performedwell. We, thus, expect banks to report modest treasury gains.

Mid-sized private banks to maintain stronger growth; improvement tocontinue for PSU banks: We expect profitability to pick up to ~79% YoY (~12%YoY exlcluding ICICIBC and AXSB) for private banks and improve for PSU banks.Mid-sized private banks will continue recording superior PAT growth (35%YoY/27% YoY for RBK/AUBANK), barring IIB, which is estimated to report asequential decline due to higher provisioning. PSU banks’ earnings, too, areexpected to pick up.

Other monitorables: (a) Margins trajectory, particularly as the loan book re-pricing happens, (b) Growth in deposits has been consistently lagging the loangrowth by ~500bp for most of FY19 resulting in stretched CD ratios for privatebanks. Thus, traction in deposits would be a key factor, (c) Asset qualityclassification and provisioning requirement toward IL&FS (especially after therecent relaxation by the NCLT), (d) Commentary on stress assets in theSME/business banking segment. (e) Trends in overall business growth and assetquality.

Our top picks –AXSB, ICICIBC and HDFCB AXSB (BUY): Asset quality will continue improving, as the bank has already

increased the PCR to 75%, which will further curb incremental provisioningrequirement. This, along with an improving outlook on fresh slippages/creditcost, would result in normalized earnings. Retail franchise has strengthened,which is likely to support margins and keep funding cost stable. Fee income hasbecome highly granular, with retail and transaction banking forming 80% of thebank’s fees, driven by cards/third-party distribution, and is expected tocontribute significantly to RoA. AXSB disclosed its FY20-22 strategy with the keyvectors being (i) Growth, (ii) Profitability and (iii) Sustainability. The bank aims todeliver 18% RoE over the medium term, led by reducing credit cost below itslong-term average, improving operating efficiency and optimizing the businessmix. We believe in management's focus on delivering long-term sustainablegrowth, expecting earnings to accelerate FY20 onward.

ICICIBC (BUY): The bank's strong operating performance has beenovershadowed by the continued pressure on asset quality. However, with asuccessive decline in the size of watch-list, controlled slippages from coreportfolio and bottoming out of the NPL ratios over FY19, we expect ICICIBC'sreturn profile to improve steadily. Watch-list has declined successively, whilePCR has increased sharply to 68.5%. We derive comfort on asset quality from (a)bulk of slippages happening from watch-list/OSRL, (b) of the total power sectorexposure, excluding state electricity boards, ~81% is rated A- and above and (c)relatively low concentration of deeper-stressed sectors such as power on watch-list. Retail business matrix remains healthy, with (a) robust liability franchise(CASA ratio of 49.3% as of 3QFY19), (b) retail contribution to fees at 73%+ and(c) higher share of secured loans.

HDFCB (BUY): With structural drivers in place – (a) best-in-class liabilityfranchise, (b) opportunities for market share gains, (c) improving operatingefficiency led by digitalization initiatives and (d) expected traction in income dueto strong expansion in branch network – we expect HDFCB to record strong loangrowth and profitability. Retail growth has been led by contribution from thehigh-RoE products like personal loans, LAS and credit cards. Over the last 12years, HDFCB's market share has increased significantly in (a) retail loans, (b)low-cost deposits and (c) profitability, indicating the strength of its franchisee.Margin expansion, a robust fee income profile and strong control on operatingleverage are likely to continue driving a steady improvement in the returnratios, in our view. We believe that strong capitalization and liquidity levelsshould enable HDFCB to sustain growth momentum over the next few years.

AU Small Finance Bank CMP: INR608 TP: INR720 (+18%) Buy We expect AU Bank to deliver ~11% QoQ loan growth, while

deposit growth is estimated at ~21% QoQ. NII is expected to grow 9% QoQ as margins are likely to shrink to

5.7% due to a rise in cost of funds. Elevated opex due to investment in manpower and technology will

keep operating profit growth at ~28% YoY. We estimate PAT at INR1.06b v/s INR830m in 4QFY18 (+27% YoY).

FY19 PAT estimate stands at INR3.7b. GNPA/NNPA are expected to decline to ~2.0%/1.2%. AU Bank trades at 2.9x FY21E BV. Buy.

Key issues to watch for Cost-to-income ratio remains the key monitorable as the bank

opens more branches and invests in technology. Slippages in the MSME segment and the impact of recent RBI

guidelines on restructuring of advances to MSMEs.

CMP: INR767 TP: INR875 (+14%) Buy We expect AXSB to report ~16% loan growth, driven by continued

strong growth in the retail and SME segments. Deposit growth islikely to be ~20%, resulting in a CD ratio of ~94%.

Margins are likely to remain stable QoQ at ~3.5%. Net stressed loans for the bank have declined to 5.2%, while the

bank has already improved its coverage ratio to 75% (Incl. TWO).We expect slippages to remain at ~3.1% (from ~17.7% a year ago)as the bank proceeds to clean up its balance sheet.

We estimate PAT of INR15.2b v/s loss of INR21.9b in 4QFY18, thusresulting in total PAT of INR46.9b for FY19.

AXSB trades at 2.4x FY21E ABV. Buy.

Key issues to watch for Quantum of corporate slippages from BB and below list and any

revision in the size of the stressed assets. Outlook on the power assets. Bank's strategy on retail, unsecured and business banking loans.

remain moderate at 7% YoY. We expect drill-down in theinternational book to continue and the focus to remain ongranular retail loans.

We expect margins to improve to 2.8% on account of re-pricing ofloans and an improvement in international margins.

We expect slippages to moderate (0.6% annualized) and GNPA/NNPA to decline to 10.9%/3.6%.

Management aims to develop more sustained fee income streams, which, coupled with an improvement in treasury performance, is expected to result in an uptick in other income.

PAT is expected to be at INR6.6b v/s INR4.7b in 3QFY19. PAT for FY19 is expected to be INR20.8b. The stock trades at 0.8x FY21E ABV. Buy.

expected to remain high off a low base. Growth will be driven byretail loans; management intends to grow corporate loan at sub20%.

Non-interest income to remain muted (+10% YoY) on account oflower fee income.

Overall, we expect PPoP growth to remain strong at ~31% YoY,supported by lower opex (+ ~7% YoY), as the pace of branchaddition is expected to slow down. Credit cost is likely to remainelevated owing to the potential stress in the SME and LAPsegments (we factor in ~2.0% slippage ratio for 4QFY19). We,thus, expect PAT growth of ~45% YoY to INR928m (INR3.2b forFY19).

We expect the slippage ratio to moderate to 3.2% from the highlevels seen over the past 3-4 quarters and the NNPA ratio todecline to 4.2%, improving the coverage ratio to 46%.

INBK trades at 0.79x FY21E ABV. Maintain Buy.

Key issues to watch for Outlook on business growth. Incremental slippages could provide some overhang. Views on margin trajectory.

and deposit growth of ~18% YoY in 4QFY19. Margins are likely toexpand marginally to ~4.4%. Overall, we expect NII growth of 21%YoY. CASA retention would be a key driver of NII and NIM.

With strong digital initiatives and fast-paced customer acquisition,fee income would be a key growth driver for the bank. We factorin other income growth of ~12% in 4QFY19, driven mostly byhealthy fee traction and expect the trend to continue.

We expect asset quality to remain stable, with GNPA at ~2.1% andNNPA at 0.7%, led by an improvement in the coverage ratio.

We expect standalone bank earnings to grow ~23% YoY(INR13.9b) for 4QFY19. We thus expect FY19 PAT of INR48.5.

RBL Bank CMP: INR678 TP: INR650 (-4%) Buy Loan growth (+36% YoY, driven by credit card/MFI business) and

deposit growth (+33% YoY) are expected to remain robust andsignificantly above industry average.

We expect NII to grow ~40% YoY, led by strong loan growth andfavorable NIMs. Increase in yields is expected to offset higher costof funds.

Overall non-interest income is expected to grow ~31% YoY, led bystrong growth in fee income and digital initiatives. Opex growthof 34% (led by branch expansion) is expected to trail total incomegrowth of 36%, leading to an increase in PPoP by 39% YoY toINR5.3b.

Asset quality is expected to remain largely stable in 4QFY19, withthe MFI segment showing lower delinquencies. Credit costs wouldlargely be under control. We expect PAT growth of 35%/7%YoY/QoQ to INR2.4b.

RBK trades at 3.1x FY21E ABV. We maintain our Buy rating.Key issues to watch for Management commentary on slippages in the SME segment. Trend in provisioning expenses, particularly residual credit cost

related to MFI business. CASA ratio and traction on NIMs. Update and commentary on balance sheet growth strategy.

CMP: INR329 TP: INR380 (+16%) Buy We expect loan growth of 11% YoY, led by growth in retail books

and portfolio buyouts. Deposit growth is expected to come in at8% YoY.

NII is expected to increase by 15% YoY due to lower interestreversals and better recoveries from w/off accounts.

Non-interest income is expected to decline YoY, but increase QoQon account of an improvement in the treasury performance andfee income.

Stress addition is likely to moderate to 1.9% levels, as we believethat most of the stress has been recorded in previous quarters.Developments on the IBC-related accounts and resolution ofpower assets remain a key monitorable.

The stock trades at 1.3x FY21E consolidated ABV. Buy.

Key issues to watch for Updates on the retail, SME and agri slippages. Recoveries from resolution of NCLT accounts. Outlook on power assets and macro developments on asset

quality.

YoY on the back of refinancing opportunities, strong growth inretail banking and sell-down of portfolios. Deposits growth is alsolikely to remain healthy at ~19% YoY.

We expect NIM to pick up to 3.4% due to MCLR increase andpricing power shifting toward banks. Consequently, NII growth isexpected to remain robust at ~28% YoY.

Non-interest income growth is likely to remain strong, led bythird-party distribution and processing fees, further aided by theimproved treasury performance.

GNPL/NNPL ratio is expected to increase slightly in 4QFY19, butthe likely higher recoveries in 4QFY19 will provide some supporton the asset quality front.

March 2019 Results Preview | Sector: Financials - NBFCs

Liquidity improves, but normalcy a while away Moderation in growth across segments In recent times, 4QFY19 was one of the toughest quarters (although tad better than

3Q) for most NBFCs under our coverage. While liquidity started improving towardsend-3QFY19, a number of events (Cobrapost, Essel Group related, etc.) led to ittightening once again. While short-term money has been more easily available, long-term money access from the capital markets has shrunk significantly. Also, with thepick-up in credit growth and increase in risk aversion towards NBFCs, bank fundingwas also slow during the quarter.

We analyzed the borrowing trends from the capital markets (NCDs and CPs) for NBFCs.The NCD market has still not recovered fully due to mutual funds reducing their NBFCexposure significantly. In this space, companies with strong parentage have benefitteddisproportionately compared to others. On the other hand, the CP market has beenmore active, money has, by and large, been available to all players. However, cost ofcapital from this source has been very divergent across players – those with highershare of wholesale lending continue to witness much higher incremental cost of fundscompared to others.

The quarter has been tough for vehicle financiers due to slowdown in auto sales andimpact of the high base of 4QFY18. We expect disbursements for vehicle financiersunder our coverage to remain stable at best, on a YoY basis. Margins should be largelystable as companies were able to pass on most of the cost of funds’ increase to theircustomers. We also expect incremental migration towards used vehicle financing formost players.

HFCs with good parentage are likely to witness healthy retail growth (reduction inprepayment rates) despite strong competition from banks. However, the non-retailsegment would see some moderation due to funding constraints. For some HFCs,access to credit is still limited. Overall, we expect HFCs to lose market share to banksin the core home loan segment. Also, the quantum of direct assignments is likely toreduce on a sequential basis. This could impact the upfront assignment income. Weremain selective in the NBFC space and prefer companies with good parentage. Ourtop picks are HDFC and LICHF.

Housing Finance – Divergent performance across companies We expect HFCs to report divergent performance in 4QFY19. In our view, HDFC and LICHF will be the biggest beneficiaries of a tight liquidity environment, resulting in some market share gains. AUM growth for these two HFCs would be 15-18%. Spreads are likely to be sequentially stable as both these players have hiked home loan rates in 2HFY19. Asset quality performance of LICHF will be a key monitorable. We expect PNBHF to report largely stable sequential disbursements, resulting in 35% AUM growth. However, lower-than-average direct assignments would result in lower upfront assignment income QoQ. We expect other HFCs to report subdued performance in the quarter.

Vehicle Finance – Players to witness a slowdown Vehicle financiers are likely to face challenges on the growth front. While disbursements are likely to improve sequentially, they would be lower on a YoY basis due to the high base. We also expect two key trends emerging from these NBFCs – (a) less focus on HCVs given the intense pricing pressure from banks, and (b) incremental migration towards financing of used vehicles. On the margin front,we expect largely stable margins as the companies have been able to pass on bulk ofthe cost of funds increase to their borrowers. We expect CIFC and MMFS to report18%+ AUM growth, while SHTF should report high single-digit growth.

Diversified financiers and others – BAF, LTFH to outperform BAF and LTFH are likely to have a strong quarter and report numbers in line with past trends. We expect LTFH to continue its trend of balance sheet retailization coupled with improvement in asset quality. The company has been making floating provisions to the tune of ~INR1b every quarter – we expect this trend to continue. SCUF is expected to have a muted quarter with disbursements down 18% YoY, driven by decline in MSME and 2W disbursements. Margins should be stable. However, credit costs during the quarter will be the key monitorable – SCUF has reported INR1.3b credit costs in 3Q v/s the quarterly average of INR2.3b in 1HFY19. We believe the provisioning number during the quarter would have a big impact on PAT.

The incremental cost of funds has also declined from the peak in3QFY19.

AUM is expected to grow 5% QoQ/ 37% YoY. Margins are expectedto be largely stable at 11.6%.

With prudent cost management, C/I ratio is expected to be 35%. The YoY comparison would be inaccurate due to migration to Ind-AS.

We expect provisions of INR4.9b in 4QFY19, as against INR4.5b in 3QFY19 and INR2.3b in 4QFY18.

Cholamandalam Inv & FinCMP: INR1,483 Under Review The vehicle finance business is likely to witness a severe

moderation in disbursement growth due to (a) high base, and (b)slowdown in OEM sales across CVs and cars. We estimate totaldisbursements to be largely stable on a YoY basis.

As a result, we expect a decline in AUM growth from 29% YoY in3QFY19 to 24% YoY in 4QFY19.

The company has managed its treasury well. As it has passed onincremental increase in CoF to its borrowers, we expect margins tobe largely stable at 7%.

Trend in asset quality, especially LAP, would be a key monitorable.We expect provisions of INR1b v/s INR953m in 3QFY19.

The stock trades at 3.8x FY19E and 3.1x FY20E BV. Under Review.

Key issues to watch for Disbursement growth and product mix in the vehicle finance

segment Traction in home loans Management expectation of incremental cost of funds Trend in opex, given management’s intent to reduce expense

ratio to 2.5% by FY20.

LIC Housing FinanceCMP: INR549 TP: INR640 (+17%) Buy The company has been regularly tapping the NCD and CP markets

over the past three months. Incremental cost of NCD borrowingsis 8.3-8.7% (3-10 years) while that of CPs is 7.0-7.5%.

We expect loan growth of 14% YoY, driven primarily by the LAP/developer loans segment. The share of builder loans is likely tomarginally increase from ~6% of the overall book driven bymarket share gains. Growth in the retail home loan book wouldbe a key monitorable.

The company hiked home loan rates by 20bp in 2HFY19, theimpact of which will be seen in the 4Q. Hence, calculated marginsare likely to be stable to improving QoQ, despite the increase incost of funds.

Operating expenses to come in at INR1.2b, with the C/I ratioexpected at ~10%.

Asset quality is likely to remain stable. We model provisions ofINR1.3b (flat QoQ).

CMP: INR416 TP: INR530 (+27%) Buy Given the slowdown in growth for key auto OEMs, we expect

AUM growth to slow down to 18% YoY in the quarter. Further company has also moderated growth towards SME and Smaller NBFCs considering the liquidity situation which would have temporary issues in growth.

Given the strong parentage, MMFS has been able to raise money from multiple sources at attractive rates. It’s 90-day CPs are raised at sub-7.5% levels – lower than the pre-crisis levels. Hence, margins are expected to be sequentially stable at 8.0%.

With operating expenses expected at INR4.8b, operating profit should improve to INR7.8b.

expect it to be a bit more aggressive in 4Q. AUM is expected to grow 3% QoQ/ 15% YoY to INR334b. We believe this growth will be led by both volume and pricing gains.

Incremental cost of funds remains high for MUTH. We see spreads remaining sequentially stable at 11.6%.

Opex, which dropped in 3Q, would pick up to a run-rate of INR3.65b in the quarter.

Earnings to be on a gradual uptrend Marginal recovery in US sales supported by FX to support growth

Year-on-year earnings growth on an aggregate basis has been picking up gradually over the past three quarters. We expect this uptrend to continue, with 15.8% YoY growth in 4QFY19. Sales are estimated to grow by 13.9% YoY, led by healthy growth in the domestic formulation (DF) business and a moderate recovery in US sales led by currency tailwinds. Lower RM prices and controlled operational cost are likely to drive 24% YoY growth in EBITDA in 4QFY19. PAT growth is likely to trail EBITDA growth due to a higher tax outgo.

US sales to pick up moderately, further support from weak INR 4Q is likely to be the fourth consecutive quarter of positive top-line growth (in CC terms). US sales are likely to grow at 5-6% YoY on an aggregate basis. Companies were seen benefiting from tailwinds in the form of (a) healthy ANDA approvals, (b) moderate price erosion, (c) product-specific opportunities (e.g. G-Ranexa for LPC, g-Suboxone for DRRD) and (d) INR depreciation v/s USD. Within our coverage universe, we expect ARBP/Cipla/TRP to deliver more than average growth. However, a high base and a lower number of launches may impact growth for SUNP and CDH. Regulatory concerns have been easing for a few companies (DRRD/LPC/TRP), based on the current status of plants. We, however, believe that consistency in compliance remains critical. Momentum in approvals and potential launches over the next 12-15 months would be the key monitorable in the US generics segment.

DF to remain on steady growth path; volume growth to pick up marginally We expect 15% YoY growth in the DF segment on an aggregate basis in 4QFY19. At the industry level, price hikes continue driving growth, while volumes have started picking up. Within our coverage universe, ALKEM/CIPLA/TRP are likely to deliver considerable growth, with the former two benefiting from a low base and CIPLA from superior execution. We expect LPC/IPCA/GNP to maintain 12-15% YoY growth in the DF segment in 4QFY19, and CDH/SUNP/AJP to exhibit moderate growth.

DIVI/IPCA/GNP/BIOS – outperformers; CDH/AJP/TRP – underperformers We expect strong YoY growth in 4QFY19 for DIVI, IPCA, GNP and BIOS on the back of superior execution. GRAN/STR/ALKEM are expected to deliver significant growth, partly due to a low base of the past year. We expect CIPLA and SUNP to exhibit moderate growth in earnings due to headwinds in the institutional business (CIPLA) and lower profitability in Taro (SUNP). We expect CDH’s earnings to decline meaningfully due to a high base (some high-potential products were launched in 4QFY18).

A push from FX tailwinds The INR has depreciated by ~9% from 64.6 in 4QFY18 v/s 70.3 in 4QFY19. This should benefits exports to the regulated markets. The extent of hedging, RM imports and foreign currency servicing would decide the quantum of benefits.

Currency depreciation adversely impacts companies having foreign currency borrowings. This will, however, vary depending on the hedging policy of the respective companies.

March 2019 Results Preview | Sector: Healthcare

Ajanta PharmaCMP: INR1,033 TP:INR1,375 (+33%) Buy We expect Ajanta Pharma’s (AJP) sales to decline 4% YoY to

INR5.1b due to significant erosion in the institutional anti-malariabusiness. With the global fund delaying its procurement process,sales of anti-malaria drugs have been impacted. Consequently, weexpect AJP’s Africa business to see 47% YoY decline for thequarter, which, in turn, will drag overall growth.

We expect the domestic formulation business to grow at 7% YoYto INR1.5b for the quarter. We expect subdued growth in DF dueto low growth in Melacare range of dermatology products andsaturation in overall market share in the ophthalmic segment.

We expect Asia business to deliver sales of INR1.3b, growing 4%YoY for the quarter.

On an overall basis, we expect EBITDA margin to come in at 23.7%,contracting by 260bp YoY and remaining stable on a sequentialbasis. Expect PAT at INR806m for 4QFY19, down 15% YoY.

We expect FY19 to be the year of trough with a 17% YoY declinein earnings. Further, we expect 16% CAGR in earnings over FY19-21 on the back of smoothening of base for Institutional Anti-malaria business, better traction in US generics andoutperformance in domestic formulations. We maintain Buy witha target price of INR1,375 (24x 12M forward earnings).

Key issues to watch out Procurement of anti-malaria medicine by Global Fund. ANDA filing rate, new approval and traction from recently

launched products in the US market.

Alembic PharmaCMP: INR542 TP: INR615 (+14%) Neutral In 4QFY19, we expect Alembic Pharma (ALPM) to report

moderate growth of ~11% YoY in sales to INR9.4b, led by 19% YoYgrowth in the international formulations business.

Within the international segment we expect higher growth tocome from Non US geographies as US business had a high baselast year. We expect domestic segment to witness 13% YoYgrowth while API business to see 8% YoY decline.

We expect EBITDA margin to come in at 19.7%, down 60bp YoYand 410bp sequentially. Absolute EBITDA is expected to 7% YoYgrowth on account of increased sales.

PAT expected to decline YoY to INR913m vs INR938m in 4QFY18on account of reduced margins and higher tax rate (32.7% vs27.3% in 4QFY18) expected during the quarter.

We value ALPM at 18x 12M forward earnings to arrive at TP ofINR615. We have Neutral rating on the stock.

Key issues to watch out for Rate of ANDA filings and approval pace for US Contribution of chronic therapies to overall domestic business

March 2019 Results Preview | Sector: Healthcare Alkem Labs

CMP: INR1,744 TP: INR2,170 (+24%) Buy We expect Alkem Labs to witness strong revenue increase of

~31% YoY to INR19.9b (on a high base), led by strong growth in both India and international business.

Domestic business is expected to grow by ~43% YoY on a low base to INR13.7b. The US business is expected to grow by ~51% YoY to INR6b for the quarter led by new product launches. Revenue from other international markets is expected to grow at a much lower rate of 17% YoY, offsetting growth to some extent.

EBITDA margin for the company is expected to improve by 770bp YoY and 90bp sequentially to 17.1% for the quarter. The improvement in EBITDA margin is due to lower employee expenses, R&D expenses and other expenses as a % of sales. Thus, we expect PAT to come in at INR2.5b, up 166% YoY and 25% sequentially, driven by higher sales and improved margins for the quarter.

We remain positive on ALKEM on the back increased share of chronic therapy in the domestic formulation business, improvement in MR productivity and enhanced US business where the operating leverage is now kicking in. Maintain Buy with a TP of INR2,170 @ 22x 12M forward earnings.

Key issues to watch out for Rate of ANDA filings and approval pace. Consistency in compliance. New launches in the domestic formulations business.

Aurobindo PharmaCMP: INR787 TP: INR940 (+20%) Buy We expect Aurobindo (ARBP) to post healthy growth of ~21% YoY

to INR48.9b in 4QFY19. Growth will be supported by 26% YoYincrease in the formulation business (~83% of sales).

We expect the US business to grow by 27% YoY to INR22b. Europeand rest-of-the-world (RoW) sales are expected to grow 18% YoY,while active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) sales are estimatedto be stable on a YoY basis.

EBITDA margin is expected to improve by ~90bp YoY to 20.8%,mainly due to lower employee cost and other expenses as % ofsales. Absolute EBITDA is expected to grow 27% YoY to INR10b.

We expect PAT to grow at a lower rate of ~18% YoY to INR6.4b onaccount of increased tax rate during the quarter.

We remain positive on ARBP on the back of its high ANDA filingsrate, strong pace of approvals, minimal regulatory risks and thecompany outperforming the industry in the EU market. Wemaintain Buy on the stock with a TP of INR944 (15x 12M forwardearnings).

Key issues to watch out for Pace of approvals in the US business. Consistency in compliance. US business outlook amid ongoing pricing pressure.

BioconCMP: INR615 TP: INR685 (+11%) Neutral Biocon (BIOS) is expected to report robust revenue growth of

~37% YoY to INR16b, primarily led by ~96% YoY growth inBiologics. Branded formulations business is expected to grow at15% YoY, while small molecules and research services are bothexpected to see moderate growth of ~9% YoY.

EBITDA margin is expected to improve by 680bp YoY to 26.7%with the changing product mix towards high margin products forthe company. Absolute EBITDA is expected to see 84% YoYgrowth to INR4.2b for the quarter.

We expect PAT of INR1.9b as against INR1b in 4QFY18. We expect the Biologics segment to continue to perform strongly,

led by improved traction for approved biosimilars in both regulated and emerging markets. Accordingly, we estimate earnings CAGR of 45% to INR15.4b over FY19-21. We continue to value BIOS at 30x P/E and roll our target on 12M forward basis to INR685. We maintain our Neutral stance on limited upside from current levels.

Key issues to watch out for Increased traction in biosimilars in regulated market. Update on BIOS’ plans to list Biologics business separately. Update on various products under approval stage.

YoY growth of 7.4% to INR34.9b. Growth is expected to be moderate on a high base of 4QFY18 which included sales of FTF g-Lialda.

Overall export formulations (58% of sales) business is expected to see growth of ~12% YoY to INR21.3b, while domestic formulations business (25% of sales) is likely to grow marginally by ~2% YoY to INR9b.

Margins are expected to shrink by ~530bp YoY to 20.7% due to a change in the product mix. Consequently, EBITDA is expected to decline by 17% YoY to INR7.2b for the quarter. Adjusted PAT is expected to decline at a higher rate of 34% YoY to INR3.9b, with the tax rate expected to go up during the quarter.

We remain positive on CDH, considering its robust ANDA pipeline for the US market, minimal regulatory hurdles, and outperformance versus industry in the DF market. We value the stock at 22x P/E on 12M forward earnings and maintain Buy with a TP of INR420.

Key issues to watch out for Update on growth in the US business post competition in

CiplaCMP: INR526 TP: INR488 (-7%) Neutral We expect Cipla’s revenue to grow ~11% YoY to INR41b in 4QFY19. Growth is expected to be driven by domestic formulations business

which we expect to grow by 21% YoY. Export formulations areexpected to grow at a subdued rate of 5% YoY on account of declinein sales expected in South Africa and emerging markets. Thisdecline will be somewhat offset by exports to the US (which areexpected to deliver strong growth of 31% YoY) and EU (which areexpected to grow by 8% YoY).

EBITDA margin is expected to come in at 17.6% (+250bp YoY).Absolute EBITDA is expected to see 30% YoY growth to INR7.2b.

We expect PAT to grow 1% YoY to INR3.4b on account of increasedtax rate during the quarter (25.8% vs 16.7% in 4QFY18).

We remain positive on the company on the back of outperformancein domestic formulations business and better traction in the USbusiness leveraging on its own front end. However, we maintainNeutral on limited upside from current levels with TP of INR488(19x 12M forward earnings).

Key issues to watch out for Quality of filings in US and approval rate. Response to USFDA latest inspection observations. Outlook on institutional business. New product launches in the domestic segment.

Divi’s LaboratoriesCMP: INR1,699 TP:INR1,570 (-8%) Neutral Divi’s Laboratories (DIVI) is likely to register robust revenue

growth of 20% YoY to INR13b in 4QFY19. EBITDA margins are expected to expand ~410bp YoY to 39.6%,

with ~34% YoY growth in EBITDA to INR5.1b. PAT is expected to increase at a higher rate by ~54% YoY to INR4b

on the back of better revenue growth, margin expansion and reduced tax rates.

We value DIVI at 3-year average P/E of 23x. We maintain Neutral stance on limited upside from current levels with TP of INR1,570.

Key issues to watch out Outlook on ramp-up of new facility. Benefit from increased API prices on account of supply shortage

due to environment-led slowdown in production from Chinese companies.

CMP: INR650 TP: INR560 (-14%) Neutral We expect Glenmark Pharmaceuticals (GNP) to report revenue

growth of ~14% YoY to INR25.5b. Growth can be attributed to 24% YoY increase in sales expected in

the US business and 14% YoY increase in sales expected in bothIndia and ROW markets. API segment is too expected to show29% YoY growth during the quarter. LATAM and EU are expectedto drag overall growth with both expected to see decline in salesduring the quarter.

EBITDA margins are expected to expand by ~210bp YoY to 15.9%with other expenses as a % of sales seeing 340bp decline.However R&D cost as a % of sales is expected to increase by100bp YoY. Thus, absolute EBITDA is expected to grow by ~38%YoY to INR4b led by margin expansion and revenue growth.

PAT is expected to grow at a higher rate than EBITDA, growing~52% YoY to INR2.3b. This is mainly due to margin expansion,higher other income and lower tax rate.

We value GNP at 15x P/E multiple 12M forward earnings to factorin subdued return ratios as earnings CAGR is yet to pick upmeaningfully and financial leverage remains elevated. Wemaintain Neutral with a TP of INR560, on limited upside fromcurrent levels. Out-licensing deals could act as positive triggers.

Key issues to watch out for New ANDA filings in complex category. Update on free-cash generation and debt repayment schedule. Progress of NCE/NBE pipeline and potential out-licensing

prospects.

CMP: INR114 TP: INR140 (+23%) Buy We expect Granules India (GRAN) to post strong 29% YoY sales

growth in 4QFY19 to INR6.5b on the back of enhanced traction in the formulation business and commercialization of its new API/PFI facility.

EBITDA margin is expected to expand 850bp YoY to 17.2% on account of write offs done by the company in 4QFY18 which had significant impact on the margins. On a sequential basis, we expect EBITDA margin to contract by 70bp. Absolute EBITDA is expected to remain stable QoQ at INR1.1b.

We expect PAT, including associate income, to increase by ~182% YoY to INR577 on account of margin expansion and lower tax rate (27% vs 36% in 4QFY18).

We value GRAN at 13x 12M forward earnings with TP of INR140. We remain positive on GRAN as it is almost through with its capex cycle and the company is in process to reap benefit on the back of increased revenue from US formulations, better capacity utilization which will further improve return ratios as well. Recommend Buy.

Key issues to watch out for New ANDA filings in complex category. Update on free-cash generation and debt repayment schedule. Update on performance of JV with Onmichem.

GSK PharmaCMP: INR1,294 TP:INR1,309 (+1%) Neutral In 4QFY19, we expect GlaxoSmithKline Pharmaceuticals (GLXO) to

report muted growth of 5.7% YoY in revenues to INR7.9b. We expect EBITDA margin to contract by 250bp YoY due to

change in product mix. However, on sequential basis, EBITDAmargin is expected to improve 160bp.

PAT is expected to be down 9% YoY on account of reducedmargins.

We continue valuing GLXO on 43x 12M forward earnings, at a35% discount to its 3-year average to factor in lower growth in itsmajor brands. The ongoing product rationalization attempts bythe company would pave way for some improvement inprofitability. We maintain our Neutral rating due to limitedupside from current levels with a TP of INR1,309.

Key issues to watch out for New drug launches in FY20. Impact on sales of products under which came under DPCO

2013. Impact on sales due to product rationalization exercise.

EBITDA margin is expected to expand by 240bp YoY to 17.4% onaccount of higher gross margin and contraction in employee costas a % of sales

With high growth in revenues and expansion in margins, weexpect PAT to grow by 49% YoY to INR873m.

We remain positive on IPCA on the back of healthy growth in theDF segment, the gradual recovery in the international market andoperating leverage kicking in, which has led to a revival in returnratios. We have Buy rating on the stock with TP of INR981 @ 21x12M forward earnings.

Key issues to watch out for Consistency in compliance with respect to USFDA inspections. New product launches in both domestic and international

markets. Outlook for institutional tender business.

Sanofi IndiaCMP: INR5,914 TP:INR7,000 (+18%) Buy We expect Sanofi India's (SANL) revenue to grow at moderate

~8% YoY in 1QCY19 to INR6.2b. Top 2 brands – Lantus and Allegra– continue to do well and grew >15% for quarter ending Feb-19.Some other top brands like Hexaxim, Combiflam and Avil aredragging overall growth.

EBITDA margin for the company is expected to contract by 180bpYoY to 20% for the quarter on account of a significant reduction in other expenses as % of sales.

We expect PAT to remain stable YoY at INR828m. Maintain Buy with a TP of INR7,000 (32x 12-month forward EPS).

Key issues to watch out for Sales outlook for drugs under DPCO. New launches in the near term.

CMP: INR335 TP: INR465 (+39%) Buy We expect sales to decline by 20% YoY to INR1.8b for the quarter

on account of reduction in CRAMS business. This decline isexpected to be offset to some extent by high growth in USformulations business.

We expect EBITDA margin for the company to expand by 310bpYoY to 23.4% for the quarter on account of increased revenueshare from US formulations business.

We expect PAT to come in at INR391m. Stock trades at 15x FY20E EPS. We remain positive on SLPA on the

back of strong product pipeline for the regulated markets,consistency in compliance and higher capacity utilization to resultin improved operating leverage which will in turn drive the returnratios.

We maintain Buy, with a target price of INR465 (20x 12-monthforward earnings).

Key issues to watch out Pace of filings, approvals and new product launches in the US. Traction in existing products. Progress on next growth drivers – Biologics & Transdermals.

Absolute EBITDA is expected to increase 57% YoY to INR5.7b,while PAT is expected to remain stable YoY at INR2.7b due to taxcredit received by the company in 4QFY18.

We remain positive on TRP on the back of pick-up in the Unichemportfolio, sustained outperformance in DF and increased R&Dspend for building a healthy pipeline for US business. However,we maintain Neutral given the limited upside from current levelswith TP of INR1,660 @ 20x 12M forward earnings.

Key issues to watch out for Performance in the acquired portfolio of Unichem. Outlook on future ANDA launches in the US market.

Sectoral hurdles receding; focus shifts to project execution Ordering activity stands muted for FY19 Ordering activity in the road sector has been slowing down in FY19 owing to (a) land acquisition delays faced by the NHAI, (b) banks’ caution toward lending to infrastructure projects, (c) changes at top management of the NHAI and (d) upcoming general elections impacting project awarding in the road sector. Awarding activity by the NHAI stood at ~INR600b in FY19, and tenders worth INR300b have been deferred and now stand to be awarded in FY20. We expect awarding activity to pick up in 2HFY20 post the general elections.

Execution of awarded projects – a key focus area HAM projects awarded in FY18 had seen delays in receiving the appointed date due to land acquisition issues faced by the NHAI and as banks adopted stringent approach in lending to infrastructure projects. However, activities have started picking up now – most of the HAM projects awarded in FY18 have achieved financial closure and now awaiting the appointed date from the NHAI. This, along with the resolution of the land issues, sets the tone for timely execution of these HAM projects in FY20.

Execution for coverage universe to increase 20% YoY We expect execution for our coverage universe to increase 20% YoY. Barring KNR, which is likely to be hurt by a lower order book, all companies are likely to deliver healthy execution.

Operating margin to shrink due to adverse revenue mix; expect muted net profit growth We expect operating margins for our coverage universe to contract at the aggregate level, given the adverse revenue mix and the moderation in profitability. Net profit is likely to decline 20% YoY, given that most companies would incur higher tax burden after the expiry of tax holiday under section 80IA.

Opportunities abundant for incumbent players With financial closure becoming stringent and banks being selective in extending credit to companies, the sector will likely see consolidation, in our view. Companies with a healthy balance sheet would benefit the most. Stringent financial closure would also lead to moderation in competition (witnessed in recently invited tenders), and thus, an improvement in pricing and margins of financially strong players.

Robust capex is being planned by both the central and state governments (INR7t construction opportunity). We believe the best way to play the road sector capex theme is through EPC players having a strong execution record and a healthy balance sheet. Our top picks are KNR and Ashoka Buildcon.

Sadbhav Engg CMP: INR249 TP: INR285 (+15%) Buy We expect revenue of INR12.7b (up 15% YoY), led by smooth

execution of orders in hand. EBITDA is expected to grow 13% YoY to INR1.4b. EBITDA margin is

expected to remain stable YoY at 11.0%. Despite revenue growth of 15%, adjusted PAT is likely to grow 6%

YoY to INR741m due to increased impact on assumption of ahigher tax rate (11.9% v/s -0.1% in 4QFY18). Maintain Buy.

Key issues to watch Improvement in working capital cycle and overall quality of

Container volume growth moderates in Jan-Feb 2019 Lead distance declines in EXIM

EXIM originating container rail volumes increased 6% YoY, while domestic containerrail volumes grew 5% YoY in Jan-Feb 2019.

Lead distance remained flat YoY for EXIM and declined 16km YoY for domesticoperations in Feb’19.

CCRI is likely to report healthy QoQ improvement in margins led by volume andrealization growth.

AGLL’s margins are expected to decline QoQ, as improvement in MTO margins is likelyto be offset by a contraction in CFS margins.

Originating container rail volumes grow 6% for EXIM, 5% for domestic in Jan-Feb 2019 After growing a robust 8% YoY in Jan’19, EXIM originating container rail volumes

increased by a moderate 4% YoY in Feb’19. Domestic originating container rail volumes grew 7.4% YoY in Jan’19 and 3.3%

YoY in Feb’19. CCRI is likely to report EXIM handling volume growth of 6% YoY for 4QFY19 and

5% YoY volume growth for the domestic segment. In Feb’19, lead distance remained flat YoY for EXIM (-3% YoY in 3QFY19) and

declined 16km YoY (-5% YoY in 3QFY19) for domestic operations.

Margins to improve for CCRI We expect CCRI’s EXIM volumes to grow by 6% YoY and domestic volumes to

increase by 5% YoY in 4QFY19. We expect margins to improve QoQ led by healthy volume growth and

realization improvement of 3% QoQ.

AGLL – MTO, CFS margins to remain healthy, P&E loss to narrow We expect AGLL’s net sales to improve by 22.5% YoY, led by a 4% YoY increase

in MTO volumes. Margins for MTO should remain stable while that for CFS should contract. We expect P&E segment to report positive EBIT.

Tariff order headwinds to impact broadcasters Print/Radio pack eying revival

A lackluster quarter for broadcasters Marred by the implementation of the TRAI’s new tariff order, broadcasters are likely to see a slowdown in revenues. On-ground hiccups coupled with blackouts in some areas are expected to impact subscription growth. This has also led to various advertisers tightening their purse strings on ad spends, thus, hurting ad growth. However, big movie releases should provide some support to overall revenue. We expect ZEE/SUNTV to report 11%/14% YoY revenue growth, with ad growth of 13%/4% YoY and subscription growth of 4%/11% YoY.

Muted revenue growth coupled with increasing thrust on digital content (in addition to the traditional content) should accentuate the impact on margins – ZEE/SUNTV are likely to report 250bp/80bp YoY drop in margins resulting in 1%/13% EBITDA growth.

Print pack to start seeing revival Print companies should see an improvement in performance due to (a) higher ad spends, (b) the 25% increase in DAVP rates, and (c) softening newsprint prices. Post the muted growth of the last few quarters, print companies should see ad growth inching up on improving ad spends by the government, retail, education, and real estate advertisers. Overall revenue is expected to grow at 7%/5% for JAGRAN/DBCL, primarily led by 8%/7% ad growth. Circulation growth, however, is likely to remain subdued YoY. The 20% decline in newsprint prices from the peak should start to translate into lower cost to the tune of 7-8% for Jagran and DB Corp, even as fresh domestic inventory starts getting utilized from Feb’19. Consequently, increase in overall costs should be limited to 5%/6% YoY for Jagran/ DB Corp, resulting in EBITDA solace for DB Corp (1% QoQ growth), and relatively better performance by Jagran with 13% EBITDA growth.

Radio companies to see healthy growth The radio pack is likely to report healthy growth. During 4Q, traction in ad spends was limited to select categories, such as the government and BFSIs. However, higher utilization at new stations coupled with election-led spending is expected to drive growth for radio companies. We expect ENIL/MBL to report 17%/14% revenue growth. This, along with operating leverage as a result of higher contribution from new stations would support margins; launch of new stations would offset some benefits for ENIL though. Expect ENIL to report 225bp YoY margin expansion while MBL should report 60bp contraction (on a high base of 36%)

Exhibition – PVR to continue its robust momentum Reduced GST rate on movie tickets coupled with the launch of new screens and healthy occupancy during 4Q should drive revenue growth for PVR. Including SPI Cinemas, PVR is likely to report 31% YoY revenue growth on the back of (a) healthy 25% growth in ticketing revenue backed by higher admits and ~16% YoY decline in ATP (due to the cut in GST rates), (b) strong volume-led 31% YoY growth in F&B revenue, and (c) SPI Cinemas’ consolidation. We expect margin to expand 225bp on the back of operating leverage coupled with merger synergies from SPI Cinemas.

D B CorpCMP: INR186 TP: INR215 (+16%) Buy We expect print ad revenues to grow at a modest 7% YoY to

INR3.6b, mainly led by traction in ad spends across selectcategories such as government, real estate, retail, and education.Further, election driven ad spends should also provide somesupport.

Circulation revenue is likely to grow at 4% YoY to INR1.3b. Subsequently, we expect consolidated revenue to grow 5% YoY to

INR5.9b. Though, there has been correction in newsprint prices, we believe

the benefits would not be fully captured in 4Q due to (a) increasein circulation copies and (b) consumption of already bought high-priced inventory, thus leading to high newsprint cost.

Consequently, we expect EBITDA to grow marginally by 1% YoY toINR1b; margins to contract 70bp YoY to 16.8%.

We estimate net profit of INR0.6b, down 2% YoY. The stock trades at 8x FY20E/21E EPS. Maintain Buy.

Key issues to watch for Print ad revenue (expect 7% YoY growth) EBITDA margin (expect 70bp YoY contraction to 16.8%)

Jagran PrakashanCMP: INR120 TP: INR140 (+16%) Buy Despite subdued election-led ad spending, the uptick in ad spends

across select categories including government, retail, real estate,etc., should lead to a modest 8% YoY print ad growth to INR3.4b.

Circulation revenue is likely to remain flat YoY at INR1.1b. Expectradio revenue to grow at a faster pace of 14% YoY to INR0.9b.

Subsequently, consolidated revenue should come in at INR5.9b, up7% YoY.

Benefits from correction in newsprint prices would not be fullyreflected in 4Q due to (a) increase in circulation copies, and (b)consumption of already bought high-priced inventory.

Consequently, we expect EBITDA to grow 13% YoY to INR1.4bmainly driven by revenue growth; margins should expand 120bpYoY to 23.1%.

PVRCMP: INR1,656 TP: INR1,900 (+15%) Buy We expect robust 31% YoY consolidated revenue growth (including

the SPI Cinemas’ consolidation) in PVR to INR7.6b. The stronggrowth can be attributed to (a) strong ticketing revenue growth –led by screen additions, better content driven uptick in footfalls,and GST rate-cut leading to a decline in ATP, (b) (volume-led)double-digit growth in F&B revenue, and (c) consolidation of SPICinemas.

We expect EBITDA to grow 49% YoY to INR1.4b mainly on the backof strong revenue growth coupled with merger synergies; weexpect margins to expand 230bp YoY to 18.4%.

However, higher depreciation and finance cost are expected topartly offset benefits of EBITDA growth. Consequently, we expectPAT to grow 13% YoY to INR295m.

Zee Entertainment

CMP: INR418 TP: INR450 (+8%) Neutral We expect domestic ad/subscription revenue to grow at a

relatively slower pace — 13%/4% YoY to INR11.1b/INR4.7b due to the implementation of the TRAI’s new tariff order.

However, revenue from the release of the movie ‘Manikarnika’ should support overall growth.

Consequently, we expect overall revenue to grow at 11% YoY to INR19.1b.

Slow pace of revenue growth coupled with higher content cost on account of amortization of ZEE5’s content, and investment in traditional and movie content are expected to accentuate the impact on margins. We expect EBITDA margin to contract 250bp YoY to 26.8%; consolidated EBITDA is likely to grow a meager 1% YoY to INR5.1b.

Yet, lower finance cost and taxes should provide impetus to PAT, and is expected to grow 23% YoY to INR2.8b.

The stock trades at 22x FY20E and 18x FY21E EPS.

Key issues to watch for Domestic ad revenue (expect 13% YoY growth) Domestic subscription revenue (expect 4% YoY growth)

Earnings to decline as lower prices seep in Our top picks: JSP, HNDL and JSTL

Steel prices lower but stabilizing Average flat steel product prices were down ~9% QoQ to ~INR 41,660/t while average long steel product prices were unchanged at ~INR37,500/t. Flat steel prices, though, have recovered by INR2,000/t since the start of Feb’19. Long products are trading at ~INR36,700/t, while flat products are at ~INR42,000/t. Domestic steel demand growth was modest at ~5% YoY in Jan-Feb 2019 (according to JPC). While steel exports have been hit, it declined ~16% during Jan-Feb 2019 on a YoY basis. On a QoQ basis, we expect sales volumes to recover as 3Q witnessed a deferral in purchases due to price volatility and on companies looking to reduce their excess inventory. Expect steel sales volumes for companies under our coverage to increase 19% /8% QoQ /YoY in 4QFY19.

Base metals (except aluminum) inch higher Prices for most base metals (except aluminum) were higher on a QoQ basis. Avgerage Zinc prices increased ~3% QoQ to USD2,694/t. Lead was up ~4% QoQ to USD2,039/t; while copper was up ~1% QoQ to INR6,202/t. Alumina prices, though, continued to trend lower and declined ~12% QoQ to USD387/t due to increasing supply from China, upcoming capacity (Emirates Global) and lifting of sanctions on Rusal. All-in aluminum prices declined ~5% QoQ to USD1,949/t (LME is down 6% QoQ to USD1,859/t).

Earnings growth to get impacted due to falling prices Earnings growth for our metals coverage universe is expected to decline on the back of lower spreads. Aggregate EBITDA for the universe is expected to decrease by ~14% YoY (down 5% QoQ), turning negative after 11 quarters of YoY increase. Aggregate PAT is expected to decline by 34% YoY (-18% QoQ). Declining steel and metal prices amid US China trade war concerns and signs of a slowdown in China have driven the weakness. Expect JSW Steel‘s EBITDA to decline 10% QoQ owing to lower realizations. SAIL’s EBITDA is expected to decline ~2% QoQ to INR25.2b. JSP’s EBITDA is likely to increase ~1% QoQ to INR21b on higher steel volumes and improved subsidiary performance. We expect EBITDA for Tata Steel to increase ~1% QoQ to INR68.1b led by higher steel volumes,and offset by lower realizations.

NMDC’s EBITDA is expected to decrease 17% QoQ to INR19b on lower prices. Amongst base metals, the ~2% QoQ appreciation in the USD-INR is likely to have a negative impact. Vedanta’s EBITDA is likely to decrease 2% QoQ to INR55.5b. HNDL and NACL will be impacted by lower LME leading to 10%/36% QoQ fall in EBITDA.

Estimates and TP change (Exhibit 15 to 17) We have cut LME aluminum assumption from USD2,000 to USD1,900 for FY19 and have increased our alumina assumption from USD350 to USD400 for FY20 and FY21. The change in estimates is presented in Exhibit 15 to 16.

Top picks – JSP, HNDL and JSTL Metal stocks have de-rated in recent months on risk of a trade war and on concerns pertaining to the slowing demand in China. We prefer structurally efficient companies with low capital and operating cost, access to cheap raw material and a strong balance sheet. Our top picks are HNDL and JSTL. We also like JSP, which should benefit from capacity addition and revival in the Power sector, though the leverage is high. We also have a Buy rating on NACL and NMDC.

HindalcoCMP: INR217 TP: INR281 (+29%) Buy Standalone (incl. Utkal): We expect EBITDA to decline 17% QoQ

to INR14.2b on lower LME aluminum, partly offset by the benefitof hedges. Aluminum EBITDA is expected to decline 19% QoQ toINR10.4b and copper is likely to decrease 12% QoQ to INR3.8b.Aluminum LME is down ~USD109/t QoQ to USD1,859/t, drivingthe decline in EBITDA.

Aluminum volumes will increase 5% QoQ to 338kt and copper willincrease 1% QoQ to 100kt.

Novelis: We expect Novelis to report adjusted EBITDA of USD319m, down 1% QoQ. Adjusted EBITDA/t is estimated at USD388 (v/s USD403 in 3QFY19). Volumes are expected to increase by 3% QoQ to 821kt. Buy.

Key issues to watch for: Lower margins in aluminum Foreign exchange rate impact at Novelis

Refining margin slips; inventory gain for OMCs Strong volume growth for CGDs

Very low Naphtha cracks (~2012-13 levels) and Gasoline cracks (lowest since FY03)resulted in the Singapore (SG) GRM declining further from USD7.0/bbl in 4QFY18 toUSD3.2/bbl in 4QFY19 (v/s USD4.3/bbl in 3QFY19), the lowest after 3QFY14.

Brent remained volatile averaging ~USD63.2/bbl (declined ~6% QoQ and YoY) in4QFY19, with concerns over OPEC+ cuts and increased US shale supply.

Petchem margins remained under pressure despite lower Naphtha prices, whileprimary spreads of ethylene, propylene and butadiene declined 31%/11%/18% YoY.

A volatile Brent — declines 5.5% YoY and 6.2% QoQ After bottoming out in Dec’18, crude prices followed a strong upward

momentum in the quarter, 4QFY19 averaged ~USD63.2/bbl. This is expected toresult in inventory gains for refiners in the quarter.

We understand there may not be any subsidy sharing with the oil marketingcompanies (OMCs) or the upstream companies (ONGC/Oil India) in the quarter.

SG GRM at USD3.2/bbl, down from USD7.0/bbl in 4QFY18 Singapore GRM for the quarter stood at USD3.2/bbl, down ~55% YoY and ~26%

QoQ due to weak Gasoline and Naphtha cracks. Gasoline cracks in 4QFY19 averaged USD1.6/bbl (lowest since FY03), while

Naphtha cracks were around FY13 levels — at USD7.8/bbl. Diesel cracks declined to USD11.7/bbl (down 16% YoY and 10% QoQ) due to

April 2019 221

Domestic oil production remains a laggard, while gas production grows We have limited data for the quarter. However, total domestic oil production in

Jan-Feb’19 declined by 5% YoY, while FY19 (March data not out yet) witnessed4% decline YoY.

Domestic gas production in Jan-Feb 2019 increased ~5% YoY, while FY19 (Marchdata not out yet) increased 1% YoY.

LNG consumption grew 8% in Apr-Jan 2019, with increased consumption fromthe Fertilizer sector (+13% YoY) and City Gas Distribution (CGD: +10% YoY). BothPower and others have shown a decline of 2.5% and 7.4%, respectively.

Valuation and view PLNG – accumulate for the long term: Visibility for PLNG’s medium-term/long-

term earnings is high, given (a) the huge gas demand-supply gap in India, (b)volume growth driven by gradual capacity addition, and (c) earnings growthboosted by annual re-gas charge escalation. Poor competition from existing andupcoming terminals and lower LNG prices are additional positives for PLNG.

Prefer IGL among CGDs: We expect volume growth to continue for CGD players.IGL took a price hike on 18 Nov’18, reflecting a higher exchange rate. Since then,the INR has appreciated, averaging ~INR70.6/USD, which is likely to result inmargin expansion for the quarter. We prefer IGL among CGD players due to (a)higher longevity of volume growth compared to MGL, and (b) higher share ofCNG v/s PNG, supporting stable EBITDA/SCM.

OMCs election hurdle to end: The quarter has seen low GRM and USDdepreciation, both expected to hit OMCs. They have also stopped sharing theirgross margins periodically. Although auto fuel prices have declined, there isalways a risk of populist measures hitting the companies during election period.IOCL remains our preferred pick due to (a) strong FCFF, (b) high dividend yield,(c) and inexpensive valuation.

Mixed quarter for RIL: RIL is expected to clock in GRM of USD8.0/bbl, led byweakness in benchmark GRMs. Petchem segment is expected to suffer due toreduced Petchem margins.

ONGC appears attractive: ONGC has been faltering on its oil production growth.But, we believe that once KG-DWN-98/2 comes into production, it would resultin significant gas production growth for the company. We prefer ONGC over OilIndia, as (a) gas production is likely to grow ~5-6% annually for the next 3-4years, (b) oil production is set to increase marginally, (c) ONGC has no subsidyburden so far, (d) it has strong dividend yield, and (e) its valuations areattractive.

earnings in 4QFY19. We model nil subsidy-sharing for OMCs;subsidy in 4QFY19 would be borne entirely by the government.

We estimate BPCL’s refinery throughput at 8.3mmt for 4QFY19 v/s7.9mmt in 4QFY18 and 7.5mmt in 3QFY19. We model core GRM ofUSD3.0/bbl and inventory gain of USD1.5/bbl for refining.Additional inventory gain of INR10.2b is expected in marketing.

We expect BPCL to report adj. EBITDA of INR20.1b (-38% YoY; -41%QoQ) in 4QFY19. We estimate PAT at INR22.3b (-17% YoY) for4QFY19.

BPCL trades at 8.0x FY20E EPS of INR47.8 and 1.6x FY20E BV, with~4.2% current dividend yield. EPS change is due to thenormalization of marketing margins.

We raise our PBV multiple from 1.6x to 1.7x as post-election we donot expect government intervention. Maintain Buy with a TP ofINR444 (earlier: INR398).

Petronet LNGCMP: INR249 TP: INR315 (+27%) Buy LNG import is expected to increase ~2% in 4QFY19, which reflects

possible higher utilization at Dahej. We build in utilization of 108% at Dahej (v/s 109% in 4QFY18 and

104% in 3QFY19). Kochi is expected to remain at a low utilization of9% in the quarter.

We expect PLNG to report EBITDA of INR8.6b (+4% YoY; +1% QoQ)and PAT of INR5.6b (+7% YoY; -1% QoQ).

PLNG’s long-term growth would depend on Dahej’s ramp-up(expected from Jun’19) and Kochi terminal’s pipeline connectivity.

As against 15mmt capacity, PLNG has ~16mmt long-term take-or-pay contracts.

The stock trades at 13.9x FY20E EPS of INR17.9. Maintain Buy.

Key issues to watch for Utilization at Dahej terminal Progress on Kochi-Mangalore pipeline Spot volumes and marketing margin on spot volumes

USD11.0/bbl in 4QFY18 and USD8.8/bbl in 3QFY19. This implies apremium of USD4.8/bbl over SG GRM.

Refining throughput for the quarter is expected at 16.8mmt (+1%YoY, -7% QoQ). Petchem volume is expected to increase 8% YoYand decrease 3% QoQ in 4QFY19 at 3.4mmt.

Petrochemical segment is expected to suffer due to reducedproduct margins. We estimate Petchem EBITDA at USD379/MT.

We expect RIL to report consolidated EBITDA of INR191.8b (+4%YoY, -10% QoQ).

We expect RIL to report consolidated PAT of INR97.5b (+3% YoY, -6% QoQ).

Double-digit sales growth likely again for sector players EBITDA and PAT to grow over 20%, led by TTAN

Contrasting numbers likely for the two companies under coverage We expect revenue growth of 14.7% YoY for the two retail companies in our coverage in 4QFY19. EBITDA is expected to increase by 21.8% YoY and adj. PAT by 23.0% YoY.

Titan’s (TTAN) jewelry segment sales growth is likely to come in at ~16% YoY, lower than usual, due to higher gold prices in early-4QFY19, which led to delays in gold purchases. In recent quarters, sale of watches have recovered strongly on a like-to-like basis. The company’s overall sales are expected to grow by 15.5% and PAT by 24.5% YoY. EBITDA margins are expected to increase 70bp YoY.

For Jubilant Foodworks (JUBI), we expect sales to increase 10.3% YoY during the quarter, with same-store-sales growth (SSSG) at 8% YoY. JUBI had reported a 28-quarter high of 26.5% SSSG in the base quarter-4QFY18; the base remains challenging at 25.9% and 20.5% for the next two quarters. But for 4QFY19, despite SSSG moderating, a modest increase in operating costs mean that margins are expected to expand by 80bp YoY to 17.2%. Therefore, 4QFY19 EBITDA/PAT growth is likely to remain healthy at 15.9%/16.1%, despite sales growth moderation.

Huge growth opportunity and visibility drive our preference for TTAN We maintain our Buy rating on TTAN. In FY18, TTAN accounted for just over 6% of the INR2t jewelry market in India. Regulations governing the segment, including (a) identity proofs for all transactions over INR200,000, (b) the GST implementation, and (c) the crackdown on black money has tilted the trade decisively in favor of organized players, among which TTAN is a dominant player in terms of scale and trust. Earnings CAGR is likely to be very impressive for the company at 26.3% over FY18-21. We maintain BUY rating on the stock.

We like JUBI’s business model with strong earnings growth potential on recovery. However, with poor visibility of double-digit SSSG beyond the near term, fair valuations of 51.3x FY20E EPS make us wary of turning constructive. We, thus, maintain a Neutral rating on the stock.

Tier-I marches on Account-specific stress to drag multiple Tier-II companies

Expect unanimous acceleration in YoY growth to pause after four quarters With aggregate Tier-I CC revenue growth of 10.3% YoY in 4QFY19, we expect the

trend of unanimous acceleration to soften after five quarters. While growth rate at INFO and HCLT will continue accelerating, for TCS and TECHM, YoY growth should be comparable to the previous quarter, and acceleration at WPRO should be marginal. For TECHM, Enterprise will be a drag and weaker-than-anticipated 4Q seasonality should play out for Communications.

While currently companies are not worried about deteriorating macros, most firms have cited some weak pockets, which may potentially impact performances in future quarters.

For Tier-II, client-specific issues will drag 4QFY19 performance across companies such as LTI, PSYS, CYL, and TELX; while the supply situation will continue to weigh on margins at MTCL and HEXW.

We expect aggregate INR revenue growth to be 17.7% YoY, while EBTDA is expected to grow 18.1% YoY. PAT growth is expected to be at 12.6% YoY.

Expect HCLT to lead QoQ growth in Tier-I; MPHL and NITEC to continue growth momentum among Tier-II companies At 3% QoQ CC, we expect HCLT to lead the growth in Tier-I due to continued

traction in IMS backed by its double-digit sequential growth in 3Q. While INFO struggled to grow in 4Q in the past, the ramp-up in large

Communication deals should help them circumvent the same this fiscal. We expect 2.3% QoQ CC growth.

We expect WPRO to grow in the upper half of its 0-2% guidance band at 1.5%, and expect 2% QoQ CC growth for TCS.

While TECHM usually experiences seasonality from its Telecom products’ segment in 4Q, the same may not be a strong tailwind; we expect 2% QoQ CC growth. Enterprise should be soft on the high base of 3QFY19 growth in Manufacturing and Retail, pegging our estimate at 1%, and overall company at 1.5% QoQ CC.

Among Tier-II IT companies, momentum for revenues should sustain at NITEC (3% QoQ CC) and MPHL (3.8% QoQ CC). LTI will be dragged by pressures in top BFS accounts; PSYS by weak IP revenues and CYL by deferred ramp-ups in services and regulatory delays in DLM contracts. MTCL should improve growth from 2.5% in the previous quarter (+3.1% QoQ CC) and March quarter’s seasonality should weigh on HEXW (+2.5% QoQ CC).

Supply concerns may weigh on margins of select companies Back-ended nature of investments at INFO will continue to weigh on its margins;

we expect 50bp QoQ decline to 22.4%. Margins should also normalize at WPRO, which is expected to settle between 18-19% (IT Services EBIT). We expect stable margin performance across TCS, HCLT and TECHM.

Among Tier-II, sharp decline in IP revenues will drag PSYS’ margins by ~400bp, the laggard in profitability this quarter. LTI should see normalization of margins

given the ~200bp reduction in utilization. Margins should decline at MTCL too (EBIT of 13%, -60bp QoQ), given investment in people at onsite v/s earlier outlook of flattish margins QoQ. Expect stable margins across the rest of our coverage universe.

Watch out for INFO’s margin guidance; HCLT’s revenue guidance and TCS’ BFS commentary INFO may not see calibration of investments in FY20, yet, margin guidance may

drop further to 21-23%, in our view. Our expectation comes on the back of aweak 4Q exit and the typical margin cycle of low 1Q followed by a gradualincrease. We expect INFO to start the year with revenue growth guidance of 7-9% YoY CC.

TCS’ comments on BFS will be crucial to get a grip on its sustenance of currentgrowth rates. The company has cited in the past that any macro concerns tendto reflect in the BFS vertical more prominently, given TCS’ wide coverage andnature of client spending.

We believe that HCLT should guide for revenue growth upwards of 15% YoY CCdue to contributions from: (1) improved organic growth (8-9% CC), (2) revenuesfrom IBM’s IP purchases (~5.5%), (3) recent mega deal with Xerox (~2%), and (4)residual impact from acquisition integration in FY19 (~0.5-1%).

We expect WPRO to start the year with a guidance of 1-3% QoQ CC revenuegrowth in 1QFY20.

Watchful of weakening pockets at current valuations; Prefer INFO, ZENT While no company has called out a secular slowdown, multiple companies in the

last month have cited pockets of weaknesses. With valuation multiples runninghigh (in the upper half of historical band, if not higher end), continuedaggravation of this trend could weigh on multiples.

We continue with our bottom-up stance for sectoral picks, and prefer INFO inTier-I and ZENT in Tier-II. Over the short-term, tactical valuation catch-up play isan opportunity for WPRO.

CyientCMP: INR579 TP: INR650 (+13%) Neutral According to a CYL press release, DLM revenue will be materially

impacted due to deferment of a large deal; the impact will beclose to USD5m. Considering this, we expect DLM revenue atUSD20m.

CYL also cited that there will be some delay in orders from one ofthe customers in A&D and the communications business. We expect services business to report revenue of USD146m

Considering cross currency impact of 40bp, we expect CYL toreport growth of 0.4% QoQ CC on a consolidated basis.

We expect CYL’s full-year EBITDA margin to be flat at 14%. Thisimplies marginal expansion in 4Q EBITDA margins. Our 4Q marginestimate stands at 15.3%.

Consequently, our PAT estimate of INR1,287m implies 40%sequential growth, led by lower base of the previous quarter.

The stock trades at 12.4x FY20E and 11.5x FY20E EPS. MaintainNeutral.

HCL TechnologiesCMP: INR1101 TP: INR1,200 (+9%) Neutral We expect HCL’s revenue to grow at 3.3% QoQ in USD terms / 3%

QoQ CC, mainly due to continued traction in IMS backed by itsdouble-digit sequential growth in 3QFY19.

We believe that HCLT should guide for revenue growth upwardsof 15% YoY CC due to contributions from: (1) improved organicgrowth (8-9% CC), (2) revenues from IBM’s IP purchases (~5.5%),(3) recent mega deal with Xerox (~2%), and (4) residual impactfrom acquisition integration in FY19 (~0.5-1%).

We expect EBIT margins to be ~19.5%, a decline of 20bp QoQ. PAT is expected to decline by 1.2% QoQ to INR 25.9b. The stock trades at 13.6x FY20E and 12x FY21E EPS. Maintain

Hexaware TechnologiesCMP: INR359 TP: INR365 (+2%) Neutral We expect USD revenue to grow at 2.5% QoQ, with cross-

currency tailwind of 30bp. HEXW declared revenue guidance for CY19 at 12-14%, ahead of

previous year’s guidance. HEXW cited that most of the growth willbe clocked in during the latter part of the year, due to calendarimpact ad 4Q deal ramp-up.

EBITDA margin at 15.1% is 20bp lower, primarily on account ofsupply situations. Regulators are also engaging in post-approvalchecks, verifying facts with clients.

Our PAT estimate for the quarter is INR1,441m, up 6% from theprevious quarter despite marginal increase in operational income.This is due to lower base of previous quarter.

With limited cross currency impact (+20bp) we expect USDrevenue growth at 2.4% QoQ, and FY19 growth at 19.3% YoY.

Organic growth will be dragged by softness in BFSI (29% ofrevenue) led by weak spending from top client.

We expect margins to shrink by 150bp led by (1) 200bp drop inutilization, and (2) INR appreciation.

CMP: INR989 TP: INR1,050 (+6%) Neutral The strong growth in Direct channel, continued recovery in the HP

channel and strong traction from the Blackstone portfolio areexpected to drive 3.5% QoQ CC growth for MPHL in 4QFY19.Digital Risk is the only segment that continues to face challenges.

Cross-currency tailwind of 30bp would push USD revenue growthto 3.8% QoQ.

This would mark another quarter of strong YoY growth at 13.1%CC.

We expect EBIT margin to marginally dip by 40bp led by supplyissues. Impact from currencies is minimal for MPHL due to hedgegains/losses that are captured in the top line.

Our PAT estimate is INR2.5b (-10.5% QoQ), despite higheroperating profits QoQ, mainly due to lower other income.

NIIT TechnologiesCMP: INR1,349 TP: INR1,400 (+4%) Neutral We expect growth momentum from the previous quarter to

continue. 4QFY19 will have only partial seasonality of GIS as someof it was realized in 3Q; that said, we expect 3% QoQ CC growth in4QFY19.

Cross-currency headwinds would add 50bp to this growth,resulting in 3.5% QoQ growth in USD terms.

With deal wins abnormally high in the previous two quarters,NITEC can do 14-15% growth against 12% base expectations.

We expect EBITDA margins to slightly taper off led by INRappreciation and normalization of utilization levels. Our EBITDAmargin estimate for the quarter stands at 18.2%.

Our PAT estimate is INR1,095m (+9.3% QoQ), primarily led bylower base of 3Q.

The stock trades at 18.1x FY20E and 15x FY21E earnings. Neutral.

estimate for IP revenue stands at USD25.3m. We expect services to grow at a nominal growth rate of 1.6% QoQ

With USD5m impact in IP revenue, we expect a 400bp decline inmargins. Our margin estimate for 4Q stands at 10.9%.

WiproCMP: INR262 TP: INR275 (+5%) Neutral WPRO had guided for 0-2% QoQ CC growth keeping in mind the

macro uncertainties. With the quarter passing by relativelyunscathed on the macro front, we expect WPRO’s revenuegrowth to be in the upper half of this band – at 1.5% QoQ CC.

Our USD revenue growth estimate is 2.1%, implying tailwind of60bp from cross currencies.

We expect IT Services EBIT margin to decline by 70bp QoQ to19.1%, owing to INR appreciation and some reinvestment ofprofits to build capabilities.

Overall EBIT margin is expected to remain flat at 18.4%, withrecovery of profitability in the non-IT Services.

Our PAT estimate for the quarter is INR24.8b, -2.7% QoQ and+32.7% YoY, due to lower profitability and swing in forex gains.

For 1QFY20, we expect WPRO to guide for 1-3% QoQ CC in termsof revenues and marginal decline in margins due to one-month ofwage hikes.

Winds slowly changing course

Watch out for the interplay! Fourth quarter numbers for telcos are likely to reflect the interplay of (a) revenue/EBITDA accretion of 1-2% each from the recently launched minimum recharges and the shift of subscribers from feature phone to broadband and (b) incumbents’ loss of IUC receipts and market share. We believe that large part of downtrading is now completed, and thus, stability in revenue/EBITDA should emerge, unless RJio initiates a new round of tariff war to accelerate its subscriber growth.

Some calmness after harsh tides After facing pressures for the last 10 quarters, telcos are likely to witness some stabilization in their revenue/EBITDA performance in 4QFY19. The roll out of minimum recharge plans by incumbents (in the third quarter), coupled with the continuous shift of subscribers from feature phones to smartphones (as evident from the TRAI data), bodes well from the APRU accretion perspective. We expect a 15%/18% QoQ improvement in ARPU for Bharti/Vodafone Idea, higher than the subscriber churn of 8%/9% QoQ, resulting in QoQ revenue growth of 1.5%/flat for Bharti India wireless/Vodafone Idea. Growth in Bharti’s India wireless revenue, coupled with an uptick in its Africa biz, should drive consol. revenue growth of 1% QoQ. RJio is expected to continue its strong subscriber-led revenue growth momentum (ARPU to remain flat QoQ to INR129), driving 11% QoQ overall revenue growth.

Bharti Infratel should witness healthy 3% QoQ revenue growth on the back of 3,260 net tenancy adds (as against QoQ deletions in previous quarters), coupled with a modest 1% QoQ uptick in rentals/tenant. TCOM is expected to report flat QoQ revenue; ex-one-offs in 3Q, the data segment should see 3% QoQ improvement, driven by 2%/7% growth in the traditional/growth segments.

EBITDA downtrend may get arrested Revenue stability should partly support EBITDA, but growing network and access cost should marginally dilute the margins. Vodafone Idea should benefit from its ongoing merger synergy exercise. We expect Bharti’s India wireless EBITDA to stabilize (flat QoQ) in 4QFY19 after last 10 quarters of downtrend. Vodafone Idea should see 24% QoQ jump in EBITDA led by synergy gains, while RJio should continue its steady 12% QoQ growth driven by revenue increase.

Bharti Infratel’s EBITDA should also stabilize with 3% QoQ growth, after witnessing tenancy losses for the last five quarters. TCOM’s consol. EBITDA should grow 7% on adjusted third quarter numbers; data segment is likely to grow 9% QoQ, driven by breakeven in growth services.

Bharti plans to turn self-sufficient, Vodafone Idea may need more fuel At steep discounted pricing, fund raising in the form of rights issue for both Bharti and Vodafone Idea should get through, in our view. This would turn Bharti self-sufficient, but provide Vodafone Idea a breather for the next 6-8 quarters, without building in any ARPU increase. Bharti Airtel has built strong product/network capability (compared to RJio) (evident in the incremental broadband share), which should allow it to execute its strategy well in terms of market share, network investments and operations, despite the turmoil in the sector. On the other hand, Vodafone Idea may again require large-scale additional funding post 6-8 quarters, if the sector does not revive. This leaves it in a precarious situation.

Bharti Airtel

CMP: INR358 TP: INR410 (+15%) Buy We expect consolidated revenue to grow 1% QoQ/6% YoY to

INR208b, and consolidated EBITDA to grow 1% QoQ to INR63b. This will mainly be led by a revival of India wireless business and an uptick in Africa business.

India wireless revenue is likely to grow 1.5% QoQ to INR103.4b, as the benefits of APRU uptick (from roll-out of minimum recharge plans) will outweigh the decline in subscribers. India wireless EBITDA too is expected to grow 1% QoQ to INR19.6b.

We expect India wireless ARPU to grow 15% QoQ to INR119 and subscriber base to drop 8% QoQ.

Africa revenue/EBITDA is expected to grow 3%/4% QoQ to INR60.9b/INR22.5b.

We expect Bharti to report net loss of INR7.2b. Bharti trades at an EV/EBITDA of 10x FY20E and 8x FY21E.

Maintain Buy.

Key issues to watch Consolidated revenue (expect 1% QoQ growth). Consolidated EBITDA (expect 1% QoQ growth). India wireless revenue (expected to grow 1.5% QoQ). India wireless EBITDA (expected to grow 1% QoQ).

We expect 2% QoQ growth in tenancies to 1,77,709. This coupledwith 1% QoQ uptick in rental/tenant should drive 2% QoQ rentalrevenue growth (INR21.4b). Further, 4% QoQ uptick in energy andother reimbursement revenue (INR16.1b) should drive overallrevenue.

Rental EBITDA margin at 67.4% is likely to expand 30bp QoQ;expect 40bp QoQ expansion in energy margin.

March 2019 Results Preview | Sector: Telecom

Vodafone IdeaCMP: INR17 TP: INR20 (+15%) Buy We expect revenue to remain flat QoQ at INR117.7b, as the

uptick in APRU will be largely be offset by the decline insubscriber base and revenue dilution from IUC.

We expect 18% QoQ growth in ARPU to INR105; steep 9% QoQdecline in subscriber base.

Despite flat revenue, EBITDA at INR14.1b is likely to grow atrobust 24% QoQ mainly on the back of merger synergies.

Subsequently, EBITDA margin is expected to expand ~230bp QoQto 12%.

We expect Vodafone Idea’s net loss to narrow down to INR41.2b.

Vodafone Idea trades at EBITDA of 19x FY20E and 13x FY21E.Maintain Buy.

Target price of INR20 is adjusted for INR250b rights issue (20bshares at a price of INR12.5)

Key issues to watch Consolidated revenue (expect to remain flat QoQ). Blended ARPU (expect INR105, 18% QoQ growth). EBITDA margin (expect ~230bp QoQ expansion).

Improvement in NTPC’s PAF to result in cost recoveries Valuations at lower end of historical range; prefer COAL, PWGR and NTPC

Conventional electricity generation declined by ~1% YoY in the first two months of 4QFY19 owing to the seasonality led demand decline. For 11MFY19, conventional generation grew by 3.8% YoY, while coal-based generation grew at a faster rate of 4.2% YoY. Hydro grew 6% YoY, while nuclear declined 2.7% YoY during the same period. For 10MFY19, generation grew by ~5% YoY. Day-ahead volumes at IEX declined ~11% YoY due to lower demand and an improvement in coal stocks at power plants in 4QFY19. Average day-ahead prices declined 32% QoQ to INR3.2/kWh.

Within our Utilities Universe, we expect Power Grid’s PAT to increase ~8% YoY to INR24.5b on account of continued capitalization momentum. NTPC’s adj. PAT is expected to be broadly flat at ~INR28b. Reported PAT is expected to increase by ~3% YoY, led by fixed-cost recoveries given improved availability, offset by prior-period revenues witnessed in the previous year. NHPC’s PAT is expected to decline to INR0.9b due to lower other income and charging off expenses on the Lower Subhansiri project. Coal India’s EBITDA (ex-OBR) is expected to decrease ~22% YoY to INR78.7b due to higher cost of production. PAT is expected to decline ~12% YoY to INR54.5b. CESC’s standalone PAT growth will be muted as regulator has not approved the tariff hike for FY19. Tata Power’s adj. PAT is expected to increase 9% YoY to ~INR2.9b on higher profits from coal JVs. Torrent Power’s adj. PAT is expected to decline 17% YoY to ~INR1.8b on account of higher interest expenses and lower other income.

Top picks – Coal India, Power Grid and NTPC The reversal in interest rate cycle should benefit valuation of utility stocks, which have a negative correlation. At current valuations, the sector is trading at the lower end of its 10-year historical P/E and P/BV range. Valuations are heavily discounting the risk to growth potential. Our top picks are Coal India (benefiting from strong earnings growth led by price hike and operating leverage), Power Grid (visibility of earnings growth and best-in-class RoE) and NTPC (capitalization-driven, double-digits regulated equity and earnings growth). We also like NHPC and Torrent Power.

BSECMP: INR613 TP: INR 750(+22%) Buy We expect operating revenues from the BSE to slightly recover

led by volume increase (10% QoQ). However, amid marketvolatility, revenue is expected to decline 24% YoY.

Turnover in cash equities during the quarter was down 31.7%YoY, driving our expectations of a 40% decline in transactionrevenues to INR282m. Revenue from corporate services isexpected to decline 21% YoY to INR489m. Other sources areassumed at INR281m v/s INR216m in the same quarter last year –growth was driven by contribution from monetization of the BSEStar MF platform.

Our EBITDA margin estimate of 5.9% is down 78% YoY.

Due to decline in operations, we have assumed PAT at INR415m,a decline of 37% YoY.

March 2019 Results Preview | Sector: Technology

Info EdgeCMP: INR1811 TP: INR1800 (-1%) Neutral We expect standalone revenue to grow 22% YoY to INR2.9b. Recruitment segment (~70% of business) is estimated to grow

17% YoY to INR2.05b. We estimate a decline in revenue of 99acres sequentially (-7.5%),

in lieu of near-term pressure in the segment. While matrimony business may see some upside (+6% YoY), this

may be at the cost of higher cash burn to match up withcompetition.

Our EBITDA margin estimate for the quarter stands at 30.8%, up120bp sequentially. Margins are positively impacted byseasonality in recruitment business, which will be partially offsetby higher ad spends.

Consequently, we expect PAT at INR899m, an increase of 59%YoY.

Key issues to watch for Outlook on 99acres.com given emerging clarity on RERA. Traction in the recruitment business from segments other than IT. Commentary around monetization in Zomato.com.

MCXCMP: INR793 TP: INR910 (+15%) Buy Total traded volumes at MCX during the quarter stood at

INR17.6t, up 1.2% QoQ and 20.4% YoY.

Volumes since 4QFY18 have seen a strong pick-up after fourquarters of YoY decline, post demonetization. This drives ourrevenue expectation of INR774m, an increase of 9.7% YoY.

There was a healthy jump in gold volumes during the quarter.Volumes from gold increased 25% QoQ while crude volumes wereup 13% sequentially.

Consequently, EBIT margins are expected to expand by 390bpsequentially to 26.1%.

We expect Software charges as a percentage to graduallydecrease; however, we estimate this quarter to be similar as theprevious one.

However, we expect PAT at INR348m, a decline of 17% QoQ, dueto normalization of tax rate and lower other income.

Key issues to watch for Pick-up in options and steps taken to enhance liquidity. Pace of reforms under SEBI. Strategy around new opportunities.

Navneet EducationCMP: INR112 TP: INR159 (+42%) Buy We expect sluggish revenue growth of 8.3% YoY to INR2,303m in

4QFY19 due to seasonal nature of the publication business.Typically, 1Q is the largest quarter in publishing/supplementarybook business.

EBIDTA margin is likely to expand 180bp YoY to 13% on the back ofdecline in paper prices and high margin stationery exports. EBIDTAis likely to grow by 26% YoY to INR299m in 4QFY19.

We estimate PAT to grow 22% YoY to INR185m.

Key issues to watch for New-series launch under Indiannica – crucial quarter for

Indiannica business. Stationery segment performance, especially orders from

exports. Guidance on syllabus change in Maharashtra and Gujarat from

We expect EBITDA margin to gradually increase hereon. Ourestimate for EBITDA margin stands at 5.5%, which is expected toinch up by 20bp sequentially due to normalization of investmentsin the P&S business.

Our PAT estimate is INR822m, a decline of 4% YoY. While benefitswill come from 80JJA, we expect tax rate to normalize at 11% (vs.4% in 4QFY18). PAT margin is 3.1% for 4QFY19.

Key things to watch for Integration of recently acquired entities. Restructuring of operations in the industrials segment. Organic growth momentum and traction in the general staffing

business post-GST.

S H KelkarCMP: INR155 TP: INR207 (+34%) Buy We expect revenue to grow at a sluggish 4% YoY to INR2,969m in

4QFY19 due to sluggish demand.

EBIDTA margin is likely to expand 600bp YoY to 16% on weak base quarter performance (a one-time expense had dragged base quarter margins) but remain flat on QoQ basis at 16% in 4QFY19. EBIDTA is likely to grow by 72% YoY to INR466m.

We estimate adjusted PAT to grow 2.6% YoY to INR237m in 4QFY19.

Key issues to watch for Pricing pressure in key raw materials, impacting profitability. CFF acquisition – cross-selling opportunities. Shift of ingredients from Netherlands to manufacturing plants in

India.

Tata Chemicals CMP: INR595 TP: INR787 (+32%) Buy We expect revenue to grow 12% YoY to INR28,683m in 4QFY19 led

by growth of 14.4% in TCNA (North America), 13.5% growth in standalone business and 12% growth in TCAHL (Africa). TCEHL (Europe) is expected to remain subdued at 4.1% growth YoY.

After multiple on-offs in TCNA in 9MFY19, the geography is expected to resume growth. The EBITDA/MT too is likely to increase to USD45/MT in 4QFY19 from USD37.2/MT on account of subsequent operating leverage.

EBITDA margin is likely to contract 140bp to 18.7% as Rallis and standalone business offset the margin expansion in the US and Africa business. We expect margin expansion of 300bp in the US business and 290bp in TCNA. Standalone business and Rallis are expected to witness a margin contraction of 460bp and 140bp, respectively.

EBITDA is likely to grow 4.4% YoY to INR5,352m. Adj. PAT is expected to decline 16% YoY to INR2,600m in 4QFY19 on account of higher tax rate of 23.9% v/s 9.5% in 4QFY18 .

CMP: INR3040 TP: INR3500 (+15%) Buy We expect revenues to increase by 22.1% YoY to INR11.2b in

4QFY19.

This is expected to be a function of 24% YoY growth in Staffing and Allied Services, 17% YoY growth in Specialized Staffing and 63% YoY growth in Other HR services.

Growth will be majorly dominated by headcount addition into general staffing business, while IT staffing growth is expected to be muted (relatively). Healthy growth in both general staffing and specialized staffing is expected next year.

We expect margins to marginally improve in specialized staffing, while margins in general staffing are expected to remain flattish. Taking this into consideration, we increase our margin estimate by ~6bp.

Our PAT expectation of INR275m (28% YoY) factors in a zero tax rate owing to benefits from Section 80JJJAA of the Income Tax Act.

Key issues to watch for Outlook on headcount growth in General Staffing business. Momentum in IT staffing business. Penetration of other HR services in existing customers and new

accounts.
