As we approach the last month leading up to the half year end of FY15, and the GDP numbers over the weekend also surprising for the
better helping the Nifty scale the never before seen mark of 8000, there is overall optimism in the air that the rally in the Indian markets
which began on hope post Mr. Narendra Modi’s anointment as the Prime Ministerial Candidate of India in September of last year, would
continue to sustain, now that he is in charge of the world’s largest democracy. Initial signals-on foreign policy, economics (including
reforms of FDI and otherwise in various sectors), continuity of constructive policies of the UPA and also a reach-out to every citizen to
be self accountable in his Independence Day speech has helped continue the wave of optimism.
Through our interaction with clients this financial year, we have come away with the key takeaway that post a near 60% rally on the
Nifty since the August 2013 lows of 5100, investors are looking for growth and value stocks rather than taking a sector overweight /
underweight call at this point in time. It is in this backdrop, and given that our economist has also upgraded her GDP target for FY15 to
5.2% from 5.0% earlier citing upside risks to this number remain, that we have, from our entire coverage universe, identified the
following 10 stocks which we think investors should be holding from a 3-year perspective. These companies exhibit the qualities of good
cash flow, strong earnings growth potential, re-rating of return ratios and very strong top-line visibility. Our view on all these stocks has
been consistent since our initiation of coverage on them at various points in time during the last four years and continue to believe that
investors should have a holding in these stocks.
It is with these brief words I leave you with Nirmal Bang Institutional Equities’ “Top 10” stock ideas as on September 1, 2014.

Oral care in India offers a tremendous growth opportunity because of low
toothpaste penetration in rural areas at 63%, low per capita consumption even
when compared to emerging markets and also the ongoing/potential increase
in premiumisation.
Colgate, the clear market leader with a 57% market share in toothpastes,
enjoys unparalleled barriers to entry in the form of phenomenal brand strength,
widest product portfolio, advantage of dedicated focus (oral care is 97% of
sales); huge distribution reach, unmatched category development efforts,
remarkable track record of success in emerging markets and continued high
spending on advertising and promotion (A&P), which its peers can’t match.
Despite unprecedented competitive intensity over the past year from P&G’s
Oral-B toothpaste launch and increased aggression from Hindustan Unilever,
Colgate has increased its market share by 120bps YoY in toothpastes, went
for higher-than-usual price hikes in the past few years, did not offer any
discounts and its working capital situation has actually improved substantially
in the past one year.
A large part of the pain because of high A&P spending (up 380bps YoY in
FY14 at 19.2% of sales) has already been witnessed on margins and with
steady sales growth, ongoing premiumisation, lower A&P spending to sales
ratio going forward and operating leverage, EPS is likely to post a 22% CAGR
for the next three years. The stock trades at 27.9x/24.2x FY16E/FY17E EPS,
respectively, well below MNC peers, despite best-in-class earnings growth,
RoE and RoCE of ~100% and attractive dividend yield of 2.5%-3.0%. One-
year target price shows 18% upside, two-year shows 37% upside and three-
year shows 59% upside.

Strong free cash flow, return ratios
Operating cash flow/free cash flow at Rs9.6bn/Rs6.9bn, respectively, and RoIC up 1,593bps at 51.2% likely over CY13-CY16E.
Aggressive setting-up of stores
BIL opened only 95/30 gross/net stores in CY13 against 189/129, respectively, in CY12. It will be more aggressive in CY14 by opening 130-150 stores. BIL has already opened 70 stores till date. On account of lower penetration, growth in CY13/1HCY14 was moderate at 12.1%/8.9%. With, strong store addition and better same-store sales growth, overall growth may rebound to 17.1% in CY15E.
Steadily improving profitability
Operating margin likely to touch 20% in the long run due to: a) Improvement in gross margin, b) Lower employee costs because of VRS, rising share of K-stores, c) Moderation in lease rentals, and d) Lower power/fuel as well as manufacturing costs following the modernisation of three out of its five plants. Operating margin to improve 255bps at 18.1% over CY13--CY16E.
Sets up a training institute to generate quality vendors/sales staff for long-term growth
In a tie up with leading Italian training institute, BIL is setting up a training centre at Bata Nagar, Kolkata, which would provide training in the field of manufacturing, product development and other aspects.
To improve sales staff service at its outlets, BIL has recently set up and is further setting up various sales training centres. BIL conducted sales training for the entire sales staff at a few outlets and witnessed double-digit improvement in their productivity. In a span of 18 months, a significant portion of the sales staff will be trained to realise the low-hanging benefit of better productivity.

Dual play on leadership in domestic oncology market and an interesting product
pipeline in the US.
Strong pipeline of Para IV products and certain other niche filings, including three
of the most complex blockbuster drugs in the US - Copaxone (multiple sclerosis
drug- second filer, market size: US$3.5bn – Natco Pharma is planning for at-risk
launch post USFDA approval), Revlimid (oncology drug - sole first-to file or FTF,
market size: US$3bn) and Tamiflu (FTF, market size: US$495mn, tentative
approval in March 2014). Other key filings are Fosnerol (CNS drug, shares FTF
with two other players, market size: US$110mn) and Tykerb (oncology drug, sole
FTF, market size: US$120mn).
Recently launched generic versions of Imatinib and Bendamustine injection in
Europe, and likely launch of Lansoprazole OTC (end-CY14) and Fosnerol
(CY15) apart from commencement of Venezeulan contract from 2QFY15 (annual
contract size is Rs800mn) to keep the growth momentum strong in the medium
term.
Expect strong traction in exports over the next two years, thereby offsetting near-
term weakness in the non-oncology portfolio (~8% of FY14 sales) in India, which
is likely to boost margins in the long run.
Expect a 25% earnings CAGR over FY14-FY17E, as against a 21% CAGR over
FY10-FY14.
With the improvement in its financials and strong prospects of the US product
pipeline bearing fruit, we have valued Natco Pharma’s base business at
Rs758/share, valuing the stock at 15xFY16E EPS and adding Rs367 (after
factoring in a worst-case scenario for Copaxone which factors in a delayed
launch in September 2015) for the US drug pipeline to arrive at a target price of
Rs1,125.

Technology-driven customised products Industrial turbines are customised as per user industries and output
capacity. Hence, it is a low competition and high-margin business. The 0-30MW segment enjoys duopoly in India.
Strong financial health Robust margin profile, high return ratios, strong cash flows and
healthy dividend payout
Scale-up of GE-Triveni JV (30-100MW segment)
JV grew substantially in FY14 with orders worth 225MW versus 35MW/80MW in FY12/FY13, respectively, and further scale-up likely.
Rising exports and after-market services This has aided margins and countered moderation in domestic
growth.
Exports formed 29%/32% of FY14 revenue/order intake, respectively.
Strong and steady after-market services (22% of FY14 revenue, margins upwards of 35%) is key differentiator.
Recovery in domestic captive power market
Market size collapsed from 1,800MW in FY10 to 700MW in FY14, while likely gradual recovery to provide a significant boost.
Healthy growth momentum likely over FY14-FY16E
Revenue/EBITDA/earnings CAGR seen at 37%/48%/51%, respectively.

Highest margin on the back of low-cost structure CARE enjoyed the lowest cost structure in the rating business
at 36.1% in FY14 followed by Crisil/ICRA at 65.8%/58.8%, respectively. CARE has highest rating EBIT margin of 62.7% against 39.6%/45.5% in case of Crisil/ICRA, respectively.
Outpaces industry growth on faster ramp-up in low ticket size instruments With better ability to profitably handle lower ticket sizes, fresh
instruments rated rose by a 37.9% CAGR over FY09-FY14. CARE is best placed to monetise 25,000 small companies yet to be rated over the next three years.
Likely revival in bank credit to drive revenue of BLR segment Rating business accounted for 96% of FY14 revenue out of
which BLR/SME segments constituted 67% of rating revenue for CARE.
Moderation in interest rates, supported by better demand, is likely to improve corporate capex in FY16. It will drive BLR (bank loan rating) segment’s revenue by 16.5% CAGR over FY14-FY17E as against 9.1% over FY12-FY14.
Healthy cash flow and strong return ratios FCF of Rs5.3bn with a FCF yield of 7.5% likely in FY17E. RoCE
likely to improve from 28.5% in FY14 to 33.6% in FY17E.

Channel financing, bill discounting and lower non-southern region receivables to improve working capital cycle o V-Guard Industries (VIL) has introduced channel financing scheme
for its dealers (Rs450mn, or 3.0% of sales, in FY14 compared to Rs200mn, or 1.5% of sales, in FY13). Non-southern region’s receivables are a month higher than that of the southern region and VIL is reducing it by ~10 days every year.
o Ex-cash working capital to reduce to 15.3% in FY17E from 19.5%/16.8% in FY13/FY14, respectively.
Lower discounts and high success rate in non-southern region to drive margins To incentivize the distributors in non-southern region, VIL sells its
products at 3%-4% discount compared to southern region. VIL has been able to reduce the discount from 5%-6% to current 3%-4%.
Non-southern region is on the cusp of PAT break-even by FY15E.
Unifying product pricing and dealer margin going forward to improve operating margin by 125bsp over FY14-FY17E.
Healthy volume on low capex, lean working capital needs to drive free cash flow/return ratios VIL is expected to post operating cash flow/FCF of Rs3bn/Rs1.7bn
over FY14-FY17E and turn debt -fee in the next three years.
With a lower sum required for working capital and minimum capex, RoCE is expected to improve by 593bps from 20.5% in FY14 to 26.5% in FY17E.

Newly commissioned plant to drive growth CCL Products (India) or CCL commissioned its 10,000tn instant
coffee plant in Vietnam in 2HFY14, which is expected to drive consolidated volume by 28.2%/11.4% in FY15E/FY16E versus 3.3%/13.0% in FY13/FY14, respectively.
Vietnam plant offers four benefits: 1) Logistical advantage, 2) Better raw material availability, 3) Favourable duty structure and close proximity to coffee-consuming ASEAN nations, and 4) No income-tax for the first four years and tax exemption of 50% for the next nine years.
Improvement in working capital cycle In the wake of faster ramp-up of Vietnam facility likely from
FY15, we expect consolidated working capital requirement to reduce from 39.7%/32.4% in FY13/FY14 to 27.7%/26% in FY16E/FY17E, respectively.
Lower capex, better working capital to drive healthy cash flow/return ratios With a major portion of capex completed and with healthy
earnings growth, we expect CCL to generate FCF of Rs3.4bn over FY14-FY17E, which will be utilised to repay Rs2.9bn debt and also improve dividend payout.
Foray into retailing of instant coffee CCL has forayed into retailing of branded coffee and aims to
achieve revenue of Rs3bn/Rs5bn in the next three/five years, respectively.

Brownfield capex to provide health volume growth at lower costs
AFL plans to increase its capacity by 80% to 45,000tn at a cost of Rs210mn by September 2014, which is likely to result in a healthy 42% volume CAGR over FY14-FY16E as against a 27.4% CAGR over FY10-FY13.
Healthy cash flow and return ratios RoCE likely to improve by 211bps from 32.8% in FY14 to
34.9% in FY16E.
Healthy operating cash flow/free cash flow of Rs599mn/Rs58mn, respectively, likely over FY14-FY17E.
D/E ratio likely to reduce from 0.9x in FY14 to 0.3x in FY17E.
Value addition and lower costs to drive margins AFL started selling an additional product called
concentrated sterol, which directly aids EBITDA without incurring significant costs. With better product mix, reduction in manufacturing cost, operating margin improved by 799bps to 21.9% in FY14, which is sustainable.
Following lower interest cost and modest capex, net profit would grow by 31% CAGR over FY14-FY17E.

Robust steel output growth likely in coming years
Currently, 25mt steel capacity is set to be deployed over the next two years, which is one-third of current steel output.
We firmly believe that India is at the cusp of an industrial revolution, on the back of the new government’s focus on manufacturing and indigenous use of natural resources, which is expected to result in substantial steel production growth in the coming years.
We expect all the previous MoUs to be revived, which can take India’s steel production as high as 200mt by 2025.
VIL best placed among peers to capitalise on this
VIL is best placed to tap the opportunity that is present in both segments i.e. shaped as well as unshaped.
The company enjoys unparalleled technology support from Vesuvius Plc (largest player globally).
Our channel check suggests that pricing is not an competitive advantage in refractories, which is adopted by some competitors.
Efficient use of capital
Generated an RoE of 19% in the past five years while RoIC stood at 23% in the same period, despite no financial leverage.
We expect RoIC to improve from 21.9% in CY13 to 28.7% in CY16, although RoE is expected to increase by a mere 50bps in the same period on the back of rising cash reserves.

Operating in the best region HeidelbergCement India (HIL) operates in Central India where
capacity utilisation is over 90% currently, while capacity addition remained muted in this region
We remain positive on cement demand driven by the focus on housing, which along with pent-up demand over the past two years would ensure 8%-9% growth in the coming years.
Robust demand and high capacity utilisation will lead to firm cement prices.
Combination of financial as well as operating leverage HIL, after selling its loss-making grinding unit in Raigad, has shown
strong profitability in its existing operations.
HIL’s debt repayment starts from CY16, which is likely to be repaid from internal cash flows, thereby giving financial leverage benefit.
Scope for reduction in costs, particularly power and fuel costs, is high and the company has undertaken the WHR project.
HIL has not announced any expansion till now, but that will be done with support from the parent company.
Strong earnings growth and attractive valuation We have estimated 25%/83% CAGR in revenue/EBITDA,
respectively, over CY13-CY16E, driven by the factors stated above.
Stock currently trades at EV/EBITDA multiple of 6.1x/4.2x CY15E/CY16E earnings, respectively.
