Private Sector Banks Result Review 3QFY14 3th Mar 2014
Private Banks are trading at significantly lower or reasonable valuation when compare to their historical trend due to possible deterioration in
asset quality earnings pressure and political un-clarity. We prefer private banks over PSBs largely due to their capability to report healthy
earnings, higher capital adequacy ratio and lower or stable asset quality. Our top picks in sector are HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Indusind Bank and
DCB. ............................................................................ ( Page : 8-9)

IFGL refractories is the flagship company of SK Bajoria group.Company manufacturing Continuous Casting Refractories and Special grade
Refractories which find applications in steel industry. IFGL has grown as an Indian multinational with manufacturing facilities located in Brazil,
China, Czech Republic, Germany, India, UK and USA. Krosaki HarimaCorporation Japan ,a subsidiary of world’s second largest steel maker
NipponSteel Corporation holding about 15 % stake in IFGL. We expect IFGL will report its best ever performance in this full year. Considering

The stock is trading at 1.7x FY15E BVPS. We estimate to Power grid stock to trade at 1.8x BVPS. Valuation is very reasonable for a business
model with RoE (16%), strong growth visibility and minimal operational risks. We valued stock for a 12 month period at a target price of
Rs.118.With equity dilution overhang on the stock is removed, so we expect the stock price will drive by purely on its fundamentals, on our
estimates we maintain a positive fundamental outlook for Power grid. Also, govt. stake coming down to 58% is a positive, as risk of further
equity dilution is reduced . ............................................................ (Page : 5)

28th Feb 2014
For IT Industry, 3QFY14 has carried out a quarter of mix set of numbers largely impacted by seasonality and furloughs impact. However, most of
companies expressed its sanguine view for industry outlook and demand discretionary environment ahead. Post earnings, almost all companies
management have expressed for better earnings outlook in near term . .................................................. ( Page : 10-15)

SHREE CEMENT. "BOOK PROFIT " 25th Feb 2014
The stock is trading at 4x in 1 yr forward P/B chart.we believe for the current market scenario the price is fare enough to trade.But looking at
future capex plans and sluggish demand we belive the earnings and profitability of Shree cement may fall for the next two consecutive
quarters.The profitability may fall due to incrising depriciation.Till now the company's depriciation level is stable but it may surprise further.so
we recommend its a better pic to book profit. ................................................................. ( Page : 18-20)
Powergrid : "BUY"
Most of PSBs profitability were declined due to higher operating cost, surge in provisions and contingencies and creation of DTL special reserve.
But declining profitability and deteriorating asset quality is not a concern but structure damage of balance sheet. Going forward banks with
higher CASA base and healthy growth in deposits would able to protect margin and hence profitability. Post result we like SBI, Union Bank and
UCO Bank due to their structural improvement in balance sheet, operating and financial metrics.

Cost Rationalization: Company’s employee costs have ballooned very rapidly in the last
2-3 years. For example, on-site compensation was 36% of the overall revenue in FY11
and it went up to 46.3% in FY13, Overall employee cost on sales increased from
52%(FY09) to 56% (FY13). Company has hired a number of employees at higher salaries
outside India and employees are not adding efficient growth in productivity.
Improving utilization level: Comparing with other peers, its utilization level (excluding
trainees) declined from 80% in FY11 to 74% in FY13. Post NRN entry, company had
hiked offshore wage at the rate of 8% and overseas at 3%. We expect that company’s
management could decide for wage hike across onsite as well as offshore to enhance its
utilization rate in near term.
View and Valuation: Infosys seems to be on its way to rediscovering its past mojo with
revenue momentum kicking, and the NRN invisible hand in play. Further announcement
of strategic acquisitions, better utilization of cash balances, better deal win, consistent
client traction and revenue momentum would help the company to bridge the gap with
rivals such as TCS.
On an ongoing basis, Infosys will retain its revenue acceleration and margin expansion,
also operating metrics will turn into greenery from hay. Upgradation of earning
guidance by management hinted to join the party to enjoy with 12-14% earnings
growth for FY14E like other top bellwether. At a CMP of Rs 3793, it trades at 17.4x
FY15E earnings. We retain our “BUY” view on the stock with a target price of target
price of Rs 3910 .
Market Data
In the recent webcast, Mr. Narayan Murthy expressed its view regarding senior level
exits from the company. In near term, non-performers in Infosys could be asked to
leave or may hand over layoff notices. Despite high salaries, some identified
employees are not contributing so much to improve productivity and efficiency of
operations. Already, the restructuring initiatives has taken place at the top of the
pyramid and now shifted to mid level of pyramid. Hence, its pink slip strategy indicates
to regain its growth and margin in near term.
Considering the strategy to build clients relation, execution of growth oriented policy
and combination of reduced onsite costs and higher utilization would be an optimistic
growth story despite recent hiccups of top management exit.
Key takeaways from recent webcast;
Restructuring at middle management: Mr. Murthy has taken initiatives to improve
cost efficiency and effective delivery system. The management has rewarded the top
performers and has given an opportunity to mediocre performers. Its PIP (performance
Improvement Program) followed by exam, and appraisal would dictate the level of
efficiency for mediocre, and the situation of involuntary attrition.

The Company's Utilization is likely to
keep inching up, which could lead to
margin expansion for a couple of
quarters and that is going to be a huge
positive for Infosys as a company.
Headcount Metrics: Its attrition increased to 18% from
17.3%(2QFY14) on LTM basis, however
on sequentially basis they have been able
to control its attrition. we hope that the
further salary hikes across the board will
bring down the attrition levels going
forward.

Key facts from Management Interview;
■ Management upgraded its earning guidance for FY14E from 9-10% to 11.5-12%. This
guidnace means the company only has to achieve flat growth in the fourth quarter to
meet the projection.
■ With 85% of the company’s revenues coming from clients based in US and Europe, the
company should hope the current economic recovery in developed countries would help
its revenues.
■They are seeing confidence coming back from client’s metrics. However, they expect
[their] budgets only remain stable from last year. Clients are still focused on cost.
■ The Company is looking to bring in about maximum 6,000 off-campus offers starting
late January early February, so there is a lot of activity going on that is bringing people in,
engaging and developing.

The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) issued the final tariff regulations for
the period FY15-19 – these regulations form the basis of Power Grid’s earnings (regulated
returns) from its core transmission business over the next five years.The Key take aways
of these Regulations are Normative TAF (NATAF) for incentives lowered; no incentive for
TAF >99.75% .Normative O&M charges raised (vs. draft), but still below FY14 levels.

The stock is trading at 1.7x FY15E BVPS. We estimate to Power grid stock to trade at 1.8x
BVPS. Valuation is very reasonable for a business model with RoE (16%), strong growth
visibility and minimal operational risks. We valued stock for a 12 month period at a target
price of Rs.118.
Power Grid's Raichur-Solapur line has been connected to national grid. Management Says
there were four trippings in the first week. Two were to increase reliability and were
done intentionally, and the other two were because of a few glitches. For the last month
there has been no tripping.
With equity dilution overhang on the stock is removed, so we expect the stock price will
drive by purely on its fundamentals, on our estimates we maintain a positive fundamental
outlook for Power grid. Also, govt. stake coming down to 58% is a positive, as risk of
further equity dilution is reduced
Capitalisation of assets remains on track. Till Jan end the company has capitalised Rs
118bn of assets which is 70% of our full year estimate. Since last two months of the year
usually account for the bulk of yearly commissioning we are confident that the co. will meet
our estimate of Rs 170bn for FY14.
Strong Capitalization : Power Grid’s adjusted PAT increased 4.3% YoY to Rs. 1,043 crore
in Q3FY14 While asset capitalisation was below estimate Rs. 3050 crore, PGCIL
commissioned another Rs. 3450 crore in January 2014 taking overall capitalisation to Rs.
13000 crore YTDFY14.
Overall revenues increased 9.6% YoY to Rs.3685 crore due to lower than anticipated
capitalisation (Rs.3050 crore) in Q3FY14 . Income increased 6.5%, 10.0% and 121.9% YoY
in transmission, telecom and consultancy income, respectively. Other income declined
9.7% YoY to Rs.116 crore as cash was deployed across various upcoming projects.
Margins declined 336 bps YoY to 87.4% due to 55.7% YoY rise in transmission & other
expenses to Rs.333 crore. Tax expenses increased 7.5% YoY to Rs. 399 crore. Q3FY13
included a one-time income of Rs.167 crore as wage revision benefit. Adjusting the same,
PAT increased 4.3% YoY to Rs.1,043 crore.

Valuation :
Low leverage balance sheet and attractive valuations augurs well :
IFGL reported debt equity ratio of 0.35x in Sep FY13, even after the series of acquisitions, and we
expect it to gradually reduce over time to 0.28x in FY15E.Company having an uninterrupted
dividend paying record for the past four years. Promoters holding more than 70 % stake (NIL
pledged) in the company and another 7 % is held by large investors. At a time the steel industry
is showing revival, We expect IFGL will report its best ever performance in this full year.
Considering industry’s improving prospects, stabilization of production from its newly built plant
at Kandla SEZ and out performance of company in its financials, We don’t expect any scope for
deep correction, hence recommending a BUY.

Fate of refractory companies closely related with the growth of steel industry. Now steel industry
world around showing some earlier signs of revival.As a global player ,IFGL is expected to get
immense benefit from this revival.Its technical collaboration and equity participation with one of
the world leaders also helping the company to adopt latest technology in manufacturing process.
A major portion of company’s income is from exports and the currency valuation of currency is
also positive for it. Steel industry in the US and in Europe is coming out of pro-longed recession
and demand in India is also expected to pick up on account of major projects getting started.
Increase in capital expenditure for capacity expansion by major steel producers both within India
and internationally augurs well for the refractory industry

In our coverage universe, banks NII grew by 15.7% YoY largely due to stable margin
and loan growth. Private sector banks are getting benefit from their high base CASA
franchise and low share of high cost wholesale bulk deposit. HDFC Bank, ICICI
Bank, Indusind Bank and DCB were continued to report 20%+ NII growth whereas
Federal Bank, INGVYSYA Bank, J&K Bank saw some stress in their earnings.
Asset quality continues to persist and would take time despite of uptick in

Private sector banks delivered better when compare to PSBs in term of asset quality
at sequential basis. Sequentially banks reported stable asset quality with high
coverage ratio which provided cushion to their earnings. But in our sense, asset
quality pressure continues to persist because economy growth is likely to be tepid
and it will take some time for recovery in domestic industrial activity and corporate
balance sheet’s leverage to decline. According to S&P, with the uptick in economy,
bank will have take some time for revival as banks have to struggle for capital base
too for further growth but private banks have adequate capital base and healthy tier-
1 capital. Outlook of asset quality in system is not positive and it would remain
challenge for banks in FY14.
Nifty Vs Bank Nifty during Year
Well structure balance sheet led healthy growth at operating profit level
Operating expenses in our coverage universe remained stable on sequential basis
and on very positive note; they delivered on an average basis growth of 19.8% YoY
at operating profit level. This was due to healthy NII growth, stable fee income and
controlled operating leverage. We have highlighted above that banks with healthy
operating profit would do better going forward as strong performance at operating
profit level would be possible only in case of well structure balance sheet growth.
Economic growth and stress in asset quality issue would be resolve with the passage
of time. Although we have not seen any revival in economy nor improvement in asset
quality in near term but private sector banks are trading significant discount as
against their historical valuation due to possible fear of deterioration in assets.
Profitability increased due to healthy NII growth, controlled CI ratio and stable
asset quality
Most of banking stocks are trading at lower side of valuation band due to earnings
pressure, higher operating leverage and asset quality. In our coverage universe,
bank reported profit growth of 16.6% YoY higher than our expectation led by margin
expansion, controlled operating leverage and stable asset quality. Although we saw
some earnings pressure in many large and mid cap banks on which Axis bank’s
profitability was boost up by right back of investment depreciation and Yes Bank’s
provisions and contingencies was almost down by 100% which inflated profit growth
by 21.4% YoY.

Well structure balance sheet growth and high CASA base would help to keep
profitability up
Result Snapshot
Private Sector Banks Result Review 3QFY14
We like those banks which did well at operating profit level, keeping in mind that with
slower pace of economy growth and rising interest rate scenario, asset quality pressure
would persist. Provision and contingencies are already expected to remain high. Most of
bank’s profitability was down owing to higher provisions against loan loss. With the
recovery in economy loan growth and asset quality would improve with the passage of
time but operating leverage and margin expansion are permanent structure of balance
sheet. Banks with strong CASA base and adequate deposits growth that could support
loan growth easily without depending upon external fund would do better in going
forward. Outlook
Private Banks are trading at significantly lower to their historical valuation or reasonable
valuation due to their possible earnings pressure and asset quality issue. This is on
account of sluggish economic growth and political un-clarity. Some banks in our universe
are capable to generate high level of profit, have high capital adequacy ratio and lower
level of stress. In our sense these banks would do better in current economy macro
situation. Out top picks are HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Indusind Bank and DCB.

Price performance of our coverage:
(Source: Eastwind)
For IT Industry, 3QFY14 has carried out a quarter of mix set of numbers largely impacted
by seasonality and furloughs impact. However, most of companies expressed its
sanguine view for industry outlook and demand discretionary environment ahead. The
Top-4 companies responded a decent set of performance despite seasonally weak
quarter with aggregate revenue of 2.8% in USD term (QoQ).
Comparing with street expectation, Infosys and HCL Tech beat the street, while TCS and
Wipro reported inline set of numbers. On margin front, they surprised positively with
back-to-back quarters of margin improvement led by operational efficiencies and cost
rationalization.
USD revenue was marginally inline and Positive FY15E outlook: Reported USD revenues
were in line or very marginally below our estimate during the seasonally weak quarter
across the top tier. A part of this, companies management have given better outlook with
margin expansion for FY15E, even NASSCOM aired the earning guidance of 13-15% for
FY15E, better than FY14E and FY13.

Please refer to the Disclaimers at the end of this Report.
Post earnings, almost all companies management have expressed for better earnings
outlook in near term and they were confident to see stronger FY15E than FY14E on
healthy growth prospect and a secular improvement in demand trend.
Margin ramped up across the Tier-1 and most of mid cap space: Despite flattish currency
benefit, companies have been efficient to maintain its margin because of reinvested
higher growth and efficient strategy to improve utilization. With macro improving and
positive growth outlook, the operating advantage from investment is likely beginning to
play out.
SMAC and Digital were subject to discussion: Emerging verticals SMAC (Social, Mobility,
Analytics and Cloud) and Digital transformation are expected to bring next generation of
growth in IT Industry. A number of IT companies, especially tier-1 IT companies have
expressed its priority area and strategy to pan-out growth opportunities on these
emerging verticals. Current uptrend in discretionary spend is being driven by the same.
Deal Pipeline remains healthy: During the quarter, weak seasonality marginally impacted
order inflow. For near term, deal pipeline remains healthy and somehow, Pricing will be
marginally under pressure in the traditional IT segment, Application Development and
Management segment. While, we do not see any pressure on new emerging segments like
SMAC, Digital, Infra, etc.

IT Industry: 3QFY14 results review
View and valuation:

Industry Outlook:We have seen a significant increase in global technology spending this year, creating
opportunities for the Indian software services sector to post double-digit growth again in
export as well as in the domestic markets. FY15E promises to be bigger and stronger than
the last 3 years, which were marked by bloodbath in global markets due to Euro-zone
crisis and falling consumer confidence in the US. Demand is set to pick up in sectors like
BFSI, healthcare, retail and transportation globally in the year ahead.
For FY15E, We expect that strong fundamentals should help to sustain earning
momentum in FY15E. Foray into niche verticals and executions of large deal would play an
important factor for better earning visibility in near future. There is a window of
opportunity for competent large caps and midcaps to displace incumbents and gain some
incremental business. In the past 4 quarters, large caps (four companies) have grown at
3.4% CQGR, while midcaps (five companies) at 3.2%which is comparable to larger peers.
Please refer to the Disclaimers at the end of this Report.
Hence, with strong medium term earnings visibility, better demand environment and
optimistic management comments, we maintain our positive stance on (In order of
preference) TECHM, PERSISTENT, ZENSARTECH, ECLERX and KPIT under mid cap space.
For FY15E, NASSCOM expects IT exports
to grow by 13-15% and domestic market
to grow by 9-12% based on broad
feedback loop from companies and
captives.
US Immigration Bill to remain an
overhang in short-to-medium term,
TCS and HCLT are growing the fastest
and with tremendous margin
performance. Infy is accelerating growth
…
Our top picks:
Concerns:However, hardening of regulatory related to visa approval in USA, Canada and Australia
could spoil the party. Even, the approval of Immigration Bill attached with higher visa fee,
wage requirements and enhanced audit by US agencies could turn the growth story of
Indian IT players adversely. If passed in its current form, the Bill could hurt the margins of
the Indian IT export sector, which derives almost 55-60% of its revenues from USA.
While all companies are accelerating its revenue growth and shaping up its margin
because of favorable demand and supply environment. Across the tier-1 IT space, TCS,
INFY and HCL TECH remain our best picks in order of our preference. These companies
are very much optimistic to improve margin as well as operational efficiencies with
healthy deal pipeline across emerging verticals as well as traditional IT Space under
positive demand scenario.

Profitability declined led by higher operating expenses, higher provisions and
creation of DTL special reserve
Earnings growth of Public Sector Banks (PSBs) are remained weak largely due to
higher operating expenses led by employee provisions and surged in provisions and
contingencies and higher tax provision for DTL special reserve as per RBI’s
suggestion. In our banking coverage universe, profitability declined by 27% YoY and
11.5% QoQ. UCO Bank reported 208% YoY growth while Andhra Bank de-grew by
82% YoY.

Asset quality deterioration sequentially on account of tight liquidity condition
and rising interest rate
Most of PSBs reported 10 to 20% deterioration in asset quality sequentially while
United Bank’s GNPA and net NPA were 11% and 7.5% of gross advance and net
advance respectively and fresh slippages were 16% (annualized). On slippage front
some banks like PNB, Bank of Baroda, Union Bank and UCO bank showed some
strength. But in tight economy condition and rising interest rate scenario, asset
quality pressure would continue. Banks with higher coverage ratio would be
protected. PNB and Bank of Baroda are in better place and their management
commentaries reflect some confidence on asset quality issue.
Public Sector Banks Result Review 3QFY14
Moderate NII growth in the system due to muted loan growth
Operating profit of our universe was declined by 1.5% YoY on the back of higher
cost against employee provisions, operating cost and non supportive other income.
Most of PSBs were reported negative growth in their other income led by lower
corporate fee income. In our universe ALBK, Bank of India and UCO bank reported
healthy operating profit. But we have not seen improvement of operating metrics in
these banks. Operating leverage of PSBs bank has been increasing led higher wage
provisions and branch expansion.
Lower operating profit on account of higher wage settlement provisions and
cost related to branch expenses
Please refer to the Disclaimers at the end of this Report.
Net interest income of our universe grew by 10.4% YoY on the back of margin
expansion on YoY basis along with moderate to healthy loan growth. In our coverage
universe, Bank of India and UCO Bank were reported healthy NII growth whereas
Andhra Bank reported 10.6% YoY declined in NII. SBI reported NII growth of 13 YoY
largely due to loan growth of 17% while margin was declined by 12 bps and flat at
QoQ basis.

Public Sector Banks Result Review 3QFY14
Please refer to the Disclaimers at the end of this Report.
Worry about the structure damage of balance sheet, declined profit is not matter
Outlook
Most of PSBs are trading at lower range of valuation multiple owing to absence of core
earnings, operating leverage, deteriorating asset quality and higher amount of restructure
assets that are in pipeline. Most of banking stocks reported moderate revenue and profit
growth owing to multiple headwinds. In near term we are not seeing improvement in
economic condition and asset quality pressure are expected to remain in the system due
to tight liquidity situation and rising interest rate. Post result we like SBI, Union Bank and
UCO Bank due to their structural improvement in balance sheet, operating and financial
metrics.
Result Snapshot
We are not worried about the declining trend of PSBs profitability but to worry about the
structural damage of balance sheet. Most of PSBs were reported moderate to healthy
loan growth but their deposits and CASA growth were absent. In rising interest rate
scenario, banks with higher low cost deposits would be able to report healthy NII growth
on the back of margin expansion and would absorb operating cost. In our sense, PSBs
would either have to improve their cost structure or improve deposits franchise to report
growth at operating profit level. On cost structure front, we are pessimist as PSBs have
higher numbers of unproductive employee than private banks and their salary at lower to
middle level management are no means less than private sector banks. So banks with
higher deposits growth and strong CASA would be able to report healthy growth going
forward. We have buy rating on SBI on the back of its high CASA base and reasonable
valuation despite of bank’s profitability was declined by 34% YoY.

The 2m-ton Line-IX clinker unit at Ras, Rajasthan, was commissioned in Jun’13.Line X of
similar capacity along with 25MW of WHRS (at the same location) is expected by
Jun’14.Two grinding units of 2m tons each, at Ras and in Bihar,are being constructed and
expected by Jun’14.We expect Shree to be a 21.5m-tpa company by Jun’15.It plans to
foray into high demanding eastern.Total capex for these expansion is Rs.3,000 crore
which is spread over next 2 years.
The stock is trading at 4x in 1 yr forward P/B chart.we believe for the current market
scenario the price is fare enough to trade.But looking at future capex plans and sluggish
demand we belive the earnings and profitability of Shree cement may fall for the next
two consecutive quarters.The profitability may fall due to incrising depriciation.Till now
the company's depriciation level is stable but it may surprise further.so we recommend
its a better pic to book profit.

On the expansion front :
During the Quarter Company got MAT (minimum alternative tax) credit entitlement of
Rs9.25 crore and deferred tax of Rs1.79 crore. This reduced total tax payable amount to
Rs15.27 crore from Rs26.31 crore.
Volumes grew by18 % but prices came down by 5%. So the EBITDA margin has hit
badly:Shree Cement Ltd has reported a 47% fall in its December quarter net profit on
lower sales as well as 5% degrowth in realization. PAT impacted due to lower other
income (down by 70% YOY), Depriciation burden on EBIDTA (Depriciation increased 41%
YOY). Volumes grew by18 % to3.8mn ton from 3.3mn ton QOQ. Net profit decreased by
47% yoy from Rs.217.44 crore (Rs.62.42 per share) in 2Q13 to Rs.115.49 crore (Rs.33.15
per share) in 2Q14.Total net income from operations stood at Rs.1318.13 crore in 2Q14,
a 6% fall yoy from Rs.1401.23 crore in 2Q13.Other income decreased from Rs.30.2 crore
in 2Q13 to Rs.9.9 crore in 2Q14.In the mean time company declares a Rs.10 as interim
dividend/share.
Power Segment: Realization Down By 15% : For power generation the net realization has
come down from Rs 383 to Rs 334 compared to last year same quarter and in the first
quarter it was still better at Rs 397.So the power realization is down by 13 percent and
hence sales also have come down by 35 percent to Rs.290 Cr. At the same time 14%
increase in its profitability from power segment to Rs112.56 crore while its cement
segment reported 79% fall in its profitability to Rs37.65 crore.

From the view company Operations in the high utilisation North and Central markets,
capacity expansions underway, low gearing and strong RoE are fundamental positives.
We believe although, near term challenges in terms of a slowdown in demand for
cement would remain, strong balance sheet and better efficiency in terms of cost
remains a key positive for this company to overcome challenges.Company Management
is bull for the rest two quarters of FY2014 as according to them demand has already
buttom out.We are positive on the stock as it always beats its peers group with lower
operational cost.
The stock is trading at 4x in 1 yr forward P/B chart.we believe for the current market
scenario the price is fare enough to trade.But looking at future capex plans and
sluggish demand we belive the earnings and profitability of Shree cement may fall for
the next two consecutive quarters.The profitability may fall due to incrising
depriciation.Till now the company's depriciation level is stable but it may surprise
further.so we recommend its a better pic to book profit.
we recommend book profit at a 11% high,and stay out from the stock for medium
term,till the triggers hit.

Management Corner : From mid-January there is a big change in demand scenario
because of the Indian calendar, the prices have improved, the demand has also
improved and they think that January to June some impact of elections will be there -
pre-election demand and other things. So margins should be better than 21 percent.
