road transportand currently operates 800 trucks daily.
PILL ventured into the Rs20 bn express cargo industryin Apr 07, with its Patel Retail division, which
provides value added, high margin services like door-
to-door express cargo & warehousing. Aiming tobecome the companysflagship business, this division
shall clock a 25-30% CAGR over the next 3-4 years.

IT, warehouses, fleet and general infrastructure.

INVESTMENT RATIONALE
Vast experience in the business with a strong brand identityPILL, operating in the transportation business since the last fifty years, has equipped itself with vastresources in terms of knowledge, experience, man power and understanding the dynamics of logistics
services in India. There is a paradigm shift in the way logistics activities are carried out today;historically logistics was just a plain vanilla product, offering services of carrying goods from one place to other. But now, with the advent of new concepts in inventory management like Just inTime (JIT), logistics has become more professionalized and efficient. PILLs experience has helpedthe company diversify into different areas of logistics (like express cargo services, third partylogistics (3PL), fourth party logistics (4PL) and consolidation of freight & courier services) and copewith the changing business environment in logistics industry.
Market leader in courier of couriers (PoBC) in IndiaPoBC, an IATA (International Air Transportation Agency) approved cargo handling agency, acts as acourier to couriers (clients include Blue dart, DTDC, DHL, FedEx) or in other words, a consolidatorof courier packets. PILL has tie-ups with every courier as well as airline company which enables it toprovide efficient and cost effective services; thereby controlling nearly 80% of the domestic market.With 80 branches, spread across India, and operating through 350 flights on a daily basis; thecompanys wide network enables it to reach every corner of the country; thus providing superiorinfrastructural support to courier companies. Due to its efficient services, PILL has become the most preferred consolidator among courier companies and it currently handles nearly 130,000 kgs ofcourier daily. As per a Credit Analysis & Research (CARE) report, Indias express (courier) industryis estimated to grow at around 20% p.a. over the next five years and double in its size by FY12. Thiswould give enough growth opportunities to PILLs PoBC business. The company has a strongpresence in consolidation services for international destinations like USA, EU & Middle East Asia.
Capitalising on the growing opportunities in road transportThe Indian road freight transport business is roughly $15 billion at present, which is estimated togrow at a CAGR of 20-25% over the next 4-5 years. Nearly 7% of the road transport is controlled byorganized players, however with introduction of VAT and increased thrust on 3PL, the share of theorganized market is bound to increase. This growth in road transport industry would be beneficial forestablished players like PILL who are present across all segments of road transport and provideintegrated logistics services. PILL is the third largest operator in road transport and currently operates800 trucks everyday, out of which 80-85 are owned trucks and balance are hired. The companyhandles around 500,000 tonnes of cargo annually and serves 65,000 clients. Due to its wide spectrumof services (like FTL, LTL & express cargo) and pan-India presence, PILL offers cost competitiveand efficient services; thus meeting the growing customer demand & beating competition.
From trucking to express cargo serviceOff late, corporates have started focusing on their core business activities and outsourcing alliedactivities like logistics and supply chain management. This shift has created huge businessopportunities for the players providing value added, high margin services (door-to-door express cargoservice & warehousing). Recognizing the importance of providing value added services; PILL, inbeginning FY08, started Patel Retail, with a view to tap the growth opportunities in the expresscargo business. The market size of express cargo industry is estimated to be around Rs20 bn and is poised to show robust growth over the next 4-5 years. This business is mainly dominated by theunorganized market; whereas organized market is shared among few players like Gati, Safex, Xps etc.

At present, PILL is utilizing its surplus space in partly loaded trucks for effective functioning of thePatel Retail (PR) division. However, going forward, with increase in scale of operations, the highmargin PR segment would soon become the flagship business of the company and act as the growthengine for PILL. Since the company already has a well established network of 375 branches,delivering to nearly 2,000 stations spread across India, this division has been started with negligible
investment & minimum operating expenses. Enjoying better operating margins than its traditionalbusiness; we expect the PR division to grow at a CAGR of 25-30% over the next 3-4 years.
Augmenting its facilities of warehouses, IT systems, truck fleet and infrastructureIn order to meet the ever increasing expectations from clients, PILL is planning to invest in its ITinfrastructure, warehouses, fleet and general infrastructure. The company has a budget of nearlyRs500-600 million to be spent in couple of years in order to enhance its facilities; these funds wouldbe sourced through a combination debt and equity.
PILL has installed Global Positioning System (GPS) on each truck owned by it and its lessors havealso installed the same on their trucks, which enables the company to keep a watch on the exactlocation of the trucks while they are on a long distance journey. For optimum realization of its fleetand efficient management of drivers, PILL plans to integrate its 300 branches through IT system.Investment in IT systems would help the company to streamline its operations and reduce its workingcapital requirements & operational costs. Warehouses are the backbone for any integrated logisticsplayer and help in carrying out operations efficiently; PILL uses its warehouses & hubs for its expresscargo and Less Than Truck Load business. It plans to upgrade its existing 200,000 sq. ft. ofwarehouse space and add another 130,000 to 150,000 sq. ft. space for new super express hubs inmajor cities like Mumbai, Pune and Hyderabad. Upgraded and new warehouses would enable PILL tohandle a variety of products and offer other value added services more efficiently.
PILL is planning to increase its owned fleet size from existing 80-85 to 305-310 trucks (truck fleet isa mix of line haul, pick up & delivery vehicles and feeder vehicles); this would provide in-housecapacity to handle the growing demand from the FTL, LTL and Patel Retail divisions. The company
has recently entered into an exclusive MOU with Eicher Motors Limited (EML) under which PILLalong with its vendors would be buying 225 vehicles (ranging from 3 tonnes to 16 tonnes) from EML.PILLs vendors will deploy the acquired vehicles exclusively for PILLs operations. Under theagreement, EML shall provide a two-year unlimited mileage warranty to PILL and its vendors for thevehicles purchased; which would lead to savings in operational costs for PILL. EML shall become apreferred supplier of vehicles to the company and eventually, PILL would convert its entire fleet toEMLs vehicles (except for smaller 1.0-2.5 tonnes vehicles). We believe that the planned capitalexpenditure should enable the company to face business challenges and show decent growth over thenext 3-4 years.
RISKS & CONCERNS
PILL faces competition in each of its business segments and owing to its small scale of operations, itcould also face a threat of price-cutting from bigger established players. Although there are enoughbusiness opportunities in this industry, the entry of more players could pressurize PILLs margins.
VALUATION
At the current market price of Rs72, PILLs projected EPS (FY09E) ofRs5.4 is discounted 13.4x.We recommend a BUY on PILL with a price target ofRs110by Jun 09.
