Weak revenue growth offset by cost controls; provisions remain high, as expected
HDFC Bank reported 20% yoy earnings growth on the back of (1) 8% yoy revenue growth, (2)
3% yoy decline in operating expenses, (3) 50% yoy increase in provisions and (4) ~25% yoy
decline in tax. Revenue growth was led by 18% yoy NII growth but offset by 18% yoy decline
in non-interest income as fees declined ~37% yoy. Loans grew ~21% yoy while NIM was
unchanged at 4.3%. Credit cost was high at 1.5%, partly aided by an improvement in provision
coverage and building a contingent standard provision for Covid (~50 bps of loans). 9% of
loans are currently under moratorium but the management was not willing to give more
insights into the previous moratorium considering that they had declared their results early.
Leaning towards slower/weaker revenue growth, offset by better-than-expected credit costs
Even as we stick to our view that these are still early days, a few thoughts are emerging. We are
still of the view that the moratorium ratio provided is not giving a clear insight into building
credit cost estimate for any bank. The initial response, both from our discussion with investors
and prior history, was to build higher provision given its exposure in unsecured, SME and
commercial vehicle book. As we built and still have these high credit costs, 4QFY20 results for
the bank as well as channel checks in recent months saw a tilt in this commentary in two broad
themes: (1) An unchanged initial view, which has a high credit cost that is a function of the
loan mix or (2) a possibility of a slower revenue growth followed by slower-than-expected
impact on credit costs for HDFC Bank.
Even as earnings are broadly the same in each of these, the valuation impact is different. We
are leaning towards the latter but still yet to establish firm evidence. The bank’s earnings have
strong levers, which we see this quarter as a reflection of this thesis. The latter outcome is
positive as gears to accelerate growth are easier as compared to managing impairment issues.
Maintain ADD: valuation safety lower; comfort driven by its strong and dependable franchise
We maintain ADD rating with Fair Value unchanged at Rs1,200. At our FV, we value the bank
at 3X book and 21X June 2022E EPS for RoEs at 15% levels. We believe that the bank is well-
positioned to navigate through this crisis despite having a relatively larger-than-peers exposure
to some of the sectors that could be impacted by the current economic downturn.
HDFC Bank (HDFCB) Banks
Revenue impact mostly at this point. HDFC Bank reported 20% yoy earnings growth
on the back of 15% yoy operating profit growth. Loan growth was impressive at ~20%
yoy but led by non-retail while NIM held up at 4.3% qoq, aided by strong growth in
CASA. The sharp decline in revenue growth is an area of risk with high-yielding loans
running off but the focus remains on asset quality, still in its early days. A positive
outcome on credit costs would help maintain its premium, in our view. Maintain ADD
rating with Fair Value unchanged (Rs1,200).

Corporate segment drives loan growth
21% yoy (+1% qoq) headline growth was largely skewed towards corporate (+37% yoy)
compared to retail (+7% yoy). Loan growth levels have sustained at ~20% levels seen
over the past few quarters. Corporate loan growth is likely driven by lending to better-
rated corporates with improvement in risk-adjusted return metrics of the bank.
Retail originations fell sharply, driven by nationwide lockdown as well as tighter credit
norms. Overall retail originations in 1QFY21 declined 70% yoy, led by personal loans
(down 86% yoy) and credit cards (down 87% yoy; spends down 44%). Auto book has
also seen the impact (down 66% yoy); however, 2W and tractors fared better in deeper
locations. Loans against gold disbursement were down 15% yoy.
Corporate bank loan growth has been driven by highly rated Indian conglomerates,
companies with international parentage or large PSUs. Further, the bank has also
participated in the TLTRO and mutual fund refinance schemes, supporting overall balance
sheet growth. Drivers for growth have been across capex, working capital and other
opportunistic growth.

SME book growth was slower in mid-teens with disbursement levels at one-third of
4QFY20 levels. Focus on this book remains on granularity, geographical spread and risk
mitigation including through self-funding ratio. As of mid-July, the bank has identified
eligible customers for credit guarantee scheme with disbursements of ~Rs200 bn.

Asset quality ratios stable; moratorium ratio best in class so far
Headline ratios. Gross NPL ratio was up marginally by 10 bps qoq to ~1.4% while net
NPL ratio was almost flat qoq at ~0.3% in 1QFY21. The recent RBI directive of a standstill
on asset classification for accounts under moratorium has helped the asset quality metrics
in the last two quarters (~1.3% and ~1.2% annualized slippage in 4QFY20 and 1QFY21
respectively).
Moratorium. The company has indicated that ~9% of its portfolio (by value) is under
moratorium as of June 30, 2020. Further, as many as 97% of the customers who availed
moratorium have no overdue installments. 98% of the customers who availed
moratorium continue to receive salaries in their bank accounts. These aspects are certainly
comforting. The management did not give a clear insight on the direction of moratorium
1 given that they had the lowest number as compared to all banks.

Slippages. The portfolio saw ~1.2% slippage (annualized) in 1QFY21 amounting to
~Rs30 bn (KIE estimate). The bank used its internal analytical models to determine
slippages in an accelerated manner beyond the usual 90 DPD (days-past-due) approach.
This contributed 30 bps of addition to GNPA in 1QFY21. Management indicated that this
accelerated slippage can be attributed entirely to customers who did not avail
moratorium.
Recoveries. The lockdown also impacted collection activity and consequently recoveries
to the extent of ~Rs3 bn in 1QFY21. The bank has augmented its collections team by a
net of 20,000 employees – some of whom were reassigned from the sales and
underwriting teams.
Provisions. The bank reported that it holds Covid-related provisions in excess of what is
mandated by the RBI. The bank made contingent provisions of Rs10 bn during the
quarter. Total credit cost (annualized) for 1QFY21 was 1.54% of advances (1.51% in
4QFY20 and 1.25% in 1QFY20). Provision coverage ratio improved by ~420 bps qoq to
~76% in 1QFY21. The bank is comfortably placed with total provisions (including specific,
floating, contingent and general provisions) amounting to 149% of gross NPA as of June
2020. Management expressed comfort with the current level of provisioning.
Given that a large part of the bank’s portfolio is focused on the salaried segment, the impact
of the ongoing slowdown on the bank should be lower. The management indicated that the
bank had tightened credit standards before the pandemic hit and hence, it should be able to
navigate the crisis well. We have seen that HDFC Bank has demonstrated that it has one of
the best banking franchises among private banks and usually tends to use the regulatory
forbearances sparingly. It is this comfort which allows us to be a bit more comfortable to
build a positive view on the bank despite having a less favorable outlook to medium-term
business of the bank. Note that the portfolio is far more diversified by customer segment
and geography than it was a decade back.
We are building in gross NPLs to rise to ~2% and net NPLs at 0.6% of loans by FY2022E.
The gross NPL ratio has been rising in recent years largely led by increase in pressure from
agriculture and steadily rising NPLs in the retail loan portfolio. In recent months, we have
seen the pressure in the commercial vehicle space as well. We would have to additionally
watch the portfolio in the other segments of retail and business banking as well.

Exhibit 8: Credit card and personal loans business probably contributes 25% of revenues and PBT for the bank Credit card and personal loan business contribution to the overall business, March fiscal year-end, 2019 (Rs mn)
Notes: (1) This is a hypothetical exercise based on external available information (SBI Cards) which has been fine tuned to HDFC Bank. (2) The yield on loans has been assumed at 20% for cards and ~11% for personal loans. (3) Opex to loans has been assumed at 2.5%, non-interest income at 1% and provisions at 1.25% for personal loans. (4) Transfer pricing has not been considered for this exercise but we have loaded the SLR costs to the business.

Stable NIMs qoq; lower deposit cost offset yield pressure and higher liquidity
Reported NIM was stable qoq at 4.3% as a decline in yields was offset by a decline in cost of
funds. Yields on loans (calculated) decreased 40 bps qoq to 9.6% while cost of funds was
down ~20 bps qoq to 4.5%. The company indicated that the current strategy to maintain
higher-than-usual liquidity continued. The company has been monetizing gains on excess
liquidity investments to offset the lower NII growth. CD ratio declined 200 bps qoq to 84%.
We are building NIM to decline ~30 bps over FY2021-23 as the incremental mix of the loan
book is likely to shift towards a less aggressive portfolio mix than what it is currently till there
is greater clarity of the borrowers’ financial profile. A prolonged slowdown could result in a
higher preference of better rated corporate portfolio or more collateralized based lending. It
is quite likely that the bank also focuses on improving its NIM through a greater focus on
liabilities as compared to assets that we have witnessed in recent years.
Non-interest income growth dragged down by dismal fee income
Non-interest income declined ~18% yoy, mainly led by a 37% yoy drop in fee income
(~14% yoy growth in 4QFY20).
Fee income and recoveries. Considerable slowdown in economic activity on account of
the Covid-induced lockdown has resulted in a decline in collection efficiency, loan
originations, the distribution of third party products, use of payment products and as also
a waiver of certain fees (due to government intervention). The bank estimated that non-
interest income was impacted to the extent of Rs20 bn on account of these reasons –
with Rs17 bn impact on fees/commissions and Rs3 bn impact on recoveries.

Treasury income. Treasury income growth was expectedly strong at >400% yoy and
~90% qoq, mainly driven by mark-to-market gains from lower interest rates.
Exchange income. The reduced FX demand in both retail and wholesale segments
resulted in a 24% yoy decline in exchange income.
We believe that fee income was vulnerable given the slowdown in retail business, since
~89% of the fee income comes from retail fees. However, we expect retail origination fees
to recover gradually as the retail business comes back up fully.
Cost ratios show improvement led by lower non-staff expenses
Cost-income ratio declined by ~400 bps qoq/yoy to ~35% in 1QFY21 against 38-39% in the
recent past. This was on the back of ~10% yoy decline in non-staff expenses and revenue
growth of ~8% yoy.
Non-employee expenses. These expenses were depressed due to lower spends, across
various sales channels, promotional activities and discretionary spends. However,
management expects these spends to resume as business normalizes. We believe some of
the reduction could be structural if it was driven by lease/contract renegotiations.
Employee expenses. These expenses increased 13% yoy on the back of ~11% yoy
increase in number of employees. The bank reported that two-thirds of its employees are
working from home and employee productivity has increased across the board. The bank
has also moved some staff from sales and underwriting teams to collections given the
heightened focus there. This demonstrates the agility of the bank and also enables it to
recover more quickly when the economic environment improves.
We believe that the target of ~35% was a challenging one to achieve for the bank.
Management commented that this performance is largely an aberration and the cost-income
ratio is likely to swing back to 38-39% levels in the short term. The management’s target is
to bring down the ratio to ~35% on a sustainable basis over the next 3-5 years.
Deposit momentum continues; CASA growth of 26%
Deposit growth in 1QFY21 was robust at 25% yoy led by similar growth in CASA and term
deposits. CASA growth at 26% is one of the highest in the last few years, helped by greater
savings level overall and lower credit demand. CASA ratio stood at 40% and has maintained
in this range in the last few quarters.
The bank is benefitting from multiple drivers of CASA, apart from its strong retail-driven
franchise. Bank indicated that corporate and SME CASA balances have also growth at strong
rates. Initiatives such as greater focus on self-funding have helped to improve deposit
balances. Bank has seen improved average balances in salary accounts reflecting negligible
impact of job losses in its portfolio.
Other key highlights
Capital. Tier-1 ratio stands comfortable at 17.5% (CET-1 ratio at 16.7%) with overall
CAR at 18.9% as per Basel-3 guidelines. RWA growth at ~4% yoy was higher than loan
growth at ~1% yoy. RWA/assets was flat qoq at 65%, down from 76% in 1QFY20.
Branch network. HDFC Bank saw a net branch reduction of 90 during 1QFY21 taking
the total branch count to 5,326. ATMs increased at 12% yoy to ~15000. The bank has
been rapidly expanding footprint in semi-urban areas and rural areas, which now account
for 50% of the total banking outlets. In addition to this, the company has ~6,500
business correspondents most of which were added in the last 12 months (~1,000 in
1QFY21). The bank has about ~200 branches ready to be opened in near future; these
would have been opened during 1QFY21 were there no lockdown-related disruptions.

1QFY21—in-line revenues and strong margin performance
Revenues declined 7.2% qoq in c/c and 7.4% on a reported basis to US$2.36 bn. The revenue
decline was sharp in IT Services (-7.8% qoq) and ERD (-9% qoq) and moderate in Products and
Platforms (-2.1% qoq). The revenue decline was due to a mix of Covid impact and offshoring of
large deals signed in the past year. A third of the Covid impact is attributable to supply-side
constraints. Sequential EBIT margin decline was contained to 40 bps due to lower travel
expenses and Rupee depreciation. Net profit of Rs29.25 bn (-7.2% qoq, +31.8% yoy) was 9%
higher than estimates due to a beat at the EBIT margin level..FCF generated in the quarter at
US$757 mn is at an impressive all-time high.
Guides for 1.5-2.5% CQGR for remaining quarters of FY2021; 19.5-20.5% EBIT for FY2021
The company expects sequential c/c revenue growth of 1.5-2.5% for the next three quarters of
FY2021. This translates into a revenue decline of 0.8-2.3% in c/c basis and revenue decline of 3.4-
4.9% on organic c/c basis for FY2021. Management’s confidence is based on large deals, 40%
higher pipeline compared to pre-Covid and stability across verticals such as financial services,
healthcare, telecom and CPG.
Strength in digital foundation competencies aids participation in transformation spends
Covid-led disruption has forced digital acceleration and led to companies investing in and pursuing
digitalization at scale. A holistic digital transformation requires strong digital foundation
architecture and HCLT’s strength in cloud infrastructure, and capabilities in automation and
security services, make it a strong contender for building out digital foundations for clients.
HCLT believes that its strength in digital foundation also paves the way for application
modernization. Its effort to drive apps+infra deals in the on-prem world (or in the past) met
with muted success since each were managed separately by clients, something which has
changed in the cloud era. Participation in digital foundation and application modernization
spends of clients augurs well for HCLT’s IT services growth.
Raise FY2021-23E EPS by 6-10%, raise Fair Value to Rs670; retain positive view
HCLT’s 1QFY21 EBIT and FY2021E EBIT margin guidance has surprised us positively. We
incorporate the better-than-expected execution and lower-than-expected pricing pressure
resulting in 6-10% FY2021-23E EPS upgrade. We raise our FV to Rs670 valuing the company at
~14X June 2022E EPS. Our valuation multiple for the company would have been higher but for
the measly payout ratio and management’s quest for product acquisitions.
HCL Technologies (HCLT) IT Services
Impressive margin defense. HCLT’s strong margin defense surprised us in 1QFY21.
It has guided for 0.8-2.3% c/c revenue decline and 100 bps margin expansion in
FY2021. HCLT‘s strength in digital foundation combined with improvement in other
digital offerings positions it well to participate in transformational opportunities. We
raise FY2021-23E EPS by 6-10% and FV to Rs670 valuing the company at 14X June
2022E EPS. Inexpensive valuations and solid footing in IT services underpin our positive
stance. Weak payout ratio and aggressive product acquisitions remain a concern.

Roshni Nadar Malhotra appointed as Chairperson of the Board
Roshni Nadar Malhotra has been appointed as the Chairperson of the Board, after Shiv
Nadar stepped down from the position. HCLT indicated that the appointment of Roshni as
chairperson was a part of HCLT’s succession plan and will not lead to any change in strategy
and direction of the company.
Shiv Nadar retains the other role i.e. MD and Chief Strategy Officer. Shiv plays an
instrumental role in deciding the strategic priorities of the organization.
Capital allocation can constrain valuation multiples
HCLT’s payout ratio continues to be measly. The company has restricted quarterly dividend
payout to Rs2/share resulting in payout ratio of just 22%. The rationale for the low payout
earlier was to conserve cash during the Covid pandemic and meet IBM payment obligation.
HCLT’s gross cash after payment stood at US$1,950 mn at end-June 2020 after payment of
IBM obligation of US$813 mn. Net cash was at US$1,330 mn.
HCLT will generate free cash of US$1.7-1.8bn over the next three years. With limited capex
involved in the business there is scope for improvement in the payout ratio. The company is
open to product acquisitions, something which will not be viewed favorably by investors
Execution risks in products business exceeds delta over cash yield in our view. We believe the
company can focus on acquisitions that drive accelerated growth in services and pay out
remaining cash to shareholders. Increase in payout ratio will go a long way in improving the
multiples.
Couple of product deals/acquisitions announced in the quarter
HCLT announced two product transactions in the quarter—
Acquisition of Cisco’s Self-Optimizing Network (SON) technology. This acquisition
comprises of products and services built on Cisco’s SON technology. The Cisco-SON
product and services provide automation technology to make the planning,
configuration, management, optimization and healing of mobile macro radio networks
simpler and faster. The acquisition is a step towards enhancing HCL’s telecommunication
offerings as SON has become a major component in the move towards 5G networks.
HCLT will pay US$50 mn for the acquisition and is a part of the Mode 3 strategy.
IP acquisition/ partnership with Temenos. HCLT will pay US$70 mn over seven years
to Temenos as a part of the deal. As part of this agreement, HCLT has been granted a
license to develop, market and support Temenos Multi-Experience Development Platform
(MXDP) for non-financial services enterprises
Here’s a quick background to this deal. Temenos completed the acquisition of Kony in
September 2019 for its digital banking experience product. The Kony product includes a
suite of mobile banking apps delivering omnichannel experiences including support for
conversational interfaces, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and wearable
technologies. The key to the success is Kony’s development platform that accelerates
product cycles and increases agility by reducing the load to design and iterate user
experiences. The development platform is also used by non-banking clients. HCLT has
acquired the license to develop, market and support the platform for non-financial
services clients.

Product investments have reasonable IRR but are not the best strategic bets
HCLT acquires products with return expectation/ IRR of 12-15%. The company could have
potentially achieved its IRR targets. However the essential question is whether they are the
best use of cash. We believe that acquisitions should bring multiplier impact to the business
through synergies, expansion of addressable market and building out of competencies in
new fast growing areas.
Product acquisition does not meet any of the criteria. In fact the synergies with services
business are negligible in the products business. Achievement of IRR of 12% is not exciting
noting the cost of equity of most investors is 10-12%. In a way the acquisitions are not
return enhancing from a minority investors standpoint even as the investor carries
integration and other risks in such acquisitions.
Higher supply impact from Covid; growth recovery from 2QFY20
Impact of Covid on revenues was lower than HCLT’s own expectations. Covid resulted in
shutdowns, reduced volumes and price discounts with a higher impact on manufacturing (-
18.8%) qoq, TTH, retail (-9% qoq), media and E&U. The public services vertical which
comprises of energy, utilities, logistics, transportation, travel and hospitality declined 7.1%
qoq. On the other hand healthcare, technology, financial services, telecom and CPG were
less impacted and will recover faster. Supply constraints led to 33% of Covid related revenue
impact, higher than that of peers. Higher supply impact could have been on account on
higher exposure to asset heavy verticals in ERD which required onsite presence. Supply has
been better managed now with 96% of billed employees in WFH mode and partial easing
of lockdowns.
The company indicated that Covid impact on revenues has bottomed out and expects
reasonable growth in the rest of FY2021. HCLT has provided guidance of CQGR average of
1.5-2.5% organic constant currency growth in the next three quarters. HCLT expects
revenue decline of 0.8% to 2.3% for FY2021.
HCLT expects stable performance from products business
The products business has held up better, with revenues declining 2.1% yoy on constant
currency basis compared to our expectations of 11.5% decline. Revenue beat was helped by
the strong demand for software products in ecommerce, digital marketing and security due
to Covid impact. HCLT’s security products obtained from IBM, BigFix and AppScan,
benefited from the demand trend. HCLT added 100 new clients in the quarter, higher than
the previous quarters.
HCLT has managed the products business well. In the course of the last 12 months, HCLT
has completed over 16,500 sales transactions across 11,000 unique customers, added 250
net new clients and has on boarded more than 2,400 partners. HCLT believes that the
products business is quite sticky and well diversified across geographies and verticals which
help dilute Covid impact. HCLT expects stable performance from its products business for
the rest of FY2021. The products business has displayed resilience; however we are unsure
of the future growth trajectory of the business and the impact of accelerated digital
transformation on the installed base of products. Performance of the business in the next
couple of quarters can provide a better indication.
Sharp revenue decline in ERD; expect recovery with a lag
ERD revenues declined a sharp 9% qoq in 1QFY21. Covid impact from both the supply and
demand perspective was high in asset heavy verticals (~50% of revenues) such as auto, aero,
industrial manufacturing and office automation due to factory closures and shutdowns.
Asset light verticals such as ISV, online and telecom were not impacted. Supply side impact
was higher in ERD due to non-accessibility of labs during lockdown. HCLT believes the
impact of Covid has bottomed out. Growth recovery in ERD is broadly tied to recovery in
global economic growth and as such may take longer to recover as compared to IT services.
We expect 5.6% revenue decline in ERD in FY2021 followed by 10.9% increase in FY2022.

Key highlights from earnings call
Margins. HCLT indicated that right shoring, automation, other cost management
initiatives and higher mode 3 mix contributed to a strong yoy EBIT margin performance.
HCLT indicated that it will not provide a wage hike to employees in FY2021.
WFH. 96% of billed employees are in WFH mode while 99.9% of support employees are
in WFH mode.
Revenue growth outlook. HCLT indicated that the revenue decline has bottomed out.
HCLT has provided guidance of CQGR average of 1.5-2.5% organic constant currency
growth in the next three quarters. HCLT expects revenue decline of 0.8% to 2.3% for
FY2021. HCLT indicated strong demand for digital foundation (IMS), IT ops, scale agile
ops model, digital workplace, cyber security. HCLT indicated healthy deal creation activity
among existing clients.
Deal wins. HCL signed 11 new transformational deals, led by telecommunication,
financial services, manufacturing, life sciences and healthcare. Net new bookings TCV is
higher than Jun-19 TCV. Renewals are also robust. HCLT has won a large consolidation
opportunity in Europe that it was pursuing over a year. Revenues from the deal will ramp
up gradually over the next few quarters
Margin walkthrough. EBIT margin was down 40 bps to 20.5%. Gross margin declined
by 70 bps and was supported by operational efficiencies. HCLT indicated a 76 bps
tailwind from Rupee depreciation and 40 bps benefit in SGA from control on travel and
discretionary spends. Margins faced a 67 bps headwind from higher depreciation and
amortization costs and 12 bps headwind from higher R&D expenses. Will continue to
increase S&M headcount especially in HCLT Software segment.
Cisco SON acquisition. HCLT indicated that the acquisition will likely be completed by
January 2021. The acquisition provides technology that helps HCLT a create niche
portfolio of telecom products relevant for 5G.
Temenos IP deal. HCLT entered into a seven-year IP deal with Temenos in 1QFY21. HCL
has been granted a license to develop, market and support Temenos’ Multi-Experience
Development Platform (MXDP) for non-financial services enterprises. HCLT indicated that
the company will integrate Temenos’ platform capabilities with other HCLT platform
products. License fee for the IP deal will be amortized over seven years. The deal is an
offshoot of Temenos’ acquisition of Kony’s digital banking and low code development
platform.
Symantec partnership. HCL Technologies has expanded its preferred services
partnership signed in 2018 with Broadcom to include the Symantec Enterprise Division
(SED) consulting services
Dividend. The Board declared a quarterly dividend of Rs2/share.
Other income. HCLT indicated that higher other income in the quarter was due to a one
time gain from the sale of a land parcel in India.
Cloud. HCLT indicated that hybrid cloud adoption is a good tailwind for IMS business.
Opportunities from cloud adoption are two-fold- (1) Clients on cloud adoption journey
also invest in digital foundation which includes security and a highly automated operating
model. This is a good services opportunity for HCLT and includes one-time system
integration as well as ongoing opportunities. (2) HCLT can also be considered for
application modernization during work on modernization of digital foundation.

Mode1-2-3 margin breakup. Mode 3- margins were lower in the quarter due to higher
amortization. Mode 2- margins declined after a sharp spike in the previous quarter. Mode
1 margins were relatively more stable and declined 20 bps to 19.4% from 19.6%.
Vendor consolidation. According to HCLT vendor consolidation opportunities are three-
fold- (1) Tail vendor consolidation which is a low hanging fruit and can bet at normal
pricing or rate cards, (2) In accounts where HCLT is not a large incumbent, it can be
invited by clients as a challenger due to capability differentiation. HCLT indicated that
much of this is not driven by pricing. (3) Clients unhappy with their existing service
provider can pass on the deal to HCLT ahead of schedule. In such a case HCLT may have
to contribute towards mitigating the client’s cost of exiting the previous provider. HCLT
said that the first two cases are more prevalent.
Infra + Apps opportunity. HCLT indicated that traditionally infra and apps were
managed separately. With hybrid cloud adoption infra apps can be integrated as one
cohort. Applications capability is available on public cloud of hyperscalers and have
become platform capabilities. This paves the way for an infrastructure vendor to
consolidate apps and vice versa. HCLT is strong in IMS and has won consolidation deals
with apps component. In a large deal in 1QFY21 HCLT consolidated two providers, one
providing workplace and data center services and the other providing applications. HCLT
has won similar deals in FY2020.
Tech spends. HCLT expects tech spends to meaningfully increase post Covid. Clients will
invest in developing a strong technology infrastructure. Clients have a much sharper
appreciation of the importance of a strong technology landscape for business survival and
HCLT believes the priority of technology spends has changed dramatically in the minds of
key decision makers. However timing and magnitude of the spending increase is uncertain.
Deal closures. HCLT indicated that 40% of deals closed in the last 15 days of the
quarter. Deal activity is higher in July compared to April. HCLT indicated that the deal
pipeline is 40% higher than the pipeline at the end of March.

Lower motor claims drive strong 1Q
ICICI Lombard reported improvement in claims ratio to 69.8% from 75% yoy. This was largely
driven by the motor business. Claims ratio in motor TP segment reduced to 70.2% from 90.9%
in 1QFY20 and 78.5% in 4QFY20. Motor OD claims reduced to 62.9% from 68.2% in 1QFY20
and 66.8-71.8% in the past three quarters. We find the decline in claims ratio to be very sharp,
especially in the backdrop of (1) continued competition in the motor OD segment and (2) no
increase in TP tariff in FY2021E even as claims inflation is about 10-12% annually. ICICI
Lombard’s risk management practices are undoubtedly among the best in the industry but such
a sharp qoq improvement in claims remains unclear. Even as 1QFY21 claims ratio does build in
higher transportation activity post the lockdown, we would expect the ratio to head north.
Health will be a gradual growth story
The narrative on health insurance picking up post pandemic will likely be gradual. Even as retail
health was down 35% yoy in April 2020, it bounced back to 1.9X in May 2020 and 43% yoy
growth in June 2020, respectively. According to the management, retail indemnity new
business was up 26% in 1QFY21 (up 70% yoy for June 2020). This will likely remain a steady
driver over the medium term, after the initial bounce-back. There have been several instances of
conflicts between hospitals and insurance companies on over-inflation of bills; a resolution on
the same would augur well for long-term development of the industry.
Steady long-term growth at massive premium; look elsewhere
We are raising our estimates by 7-9% to reflect a better combined ratio, partially offset by
lower investment income. We expect the company to deliver about 20% RoE and mid-teens
growth in earnings. Despite moderate long-term growth profile, the defensive nature of the
business, especially in the current environment, drives superrich valuations of ICICI Lombard.
We find better risk-return tradeoff elsewhere in the sector, prefer ICICI Bank (BUY, 34% upside)
and ICICI Prudential Life (BUY, 15% upside) over ICICI Lombard (retain SELL with RGM-based FV
of Rs950, up from Rs875) within the group.
ICICI Lombard (ICICIGI) Insurance
Empty roads drive strong 1Q. ICICI Lombard’s strong performance in 1QFY21 was largely driven by lower claims in the motor business likely due to the lockdown even as Covid-related claims in the health segment were high. We expect the trends to reverse and health insurance narrative to play out gradually post pandemic. Overall, its mid-teen earnings growth may be considered as a defensive in the current environment although valuations are too pricy for the same. Retain SELL with FV of Rs950.

Modest growth in earnings
ICICI Lombard reported 12% yoy growth in PBT to Rs5.3 bn despite muted 4% yoy growth
in net earned premium and 5% yoy decline in investment income. This was aided by 4% yoy
decline in claims during the quarter. Motor TP claims declined 2,070 bps yoy to 70.2% while
motor OD claims ratio declined 530 bps yoy to 62.9%. Sharp 56% yoy decline in capital
gains led to 5% yoy decline in investment income.
Combined ratio (adjusted for impact of cyclone in 1QFY21 and 1QFY20) was down 130 bps
yoy to 98.4% (99.7% unadjusted for cyclone impact). Strong improvement in combined
ratio was curtailed by higher commissions. Commission ratio was up 230 bps yoy to 4.6%.
Lower commission earned from reinsurance led to 86% yoy increase in net commission
payout.

Stringent cost control, lower volumes in 1QFY21 and shift towards digital claims settlement
and sourcing led to muted 5% yoy increase in operating cost.
6% yoy decline in overall premium (excluding crop) in 1QFY21
ICICI Lombard reported 6% yoy (excluding crop) decline in gross premiums on the back of
sharp decline in motor premiums (~50% of overall premium in FY2020). Strong traction in
fire premium (higher retention post rise in reinsurance rates) and health segment provided
some comfort.
Sharp decline in motor premiums in 1QFY21
Motor premiums were down 22% yoy in 1QFY21 on the back of lower new auto sales and
marginal decline in renewals as retail customers focus on cash conservation. Overall motor
premiums declined sharply at 47% and 25% yoy in April 2020 and May 2020, respectively
but revived to 8% yoy growth in June 2020. Management guided that renewal premiums
were down ~15-16% during the initial phase of the lockdown but have broadly revived to
pre-Covid levels. Strong growth in motor premiums from June 2020 is directly related to
relaxation in lockdown restrictions resulting in higher share of vehicles plying on the road. It
is possible that select customer cohorts would have deferred motor renewals due to lower
traffic movements.
Motor TP was down 17% yoy due to moderation in industry volumes and the company’s
strategy to reduce focus on CVs (share of CVs down 250 bps yoy to 14.8% in 1QFY21).
Motor OD declined 27% yoy.
Strong growth in retail health indemnity in 1QFY21
ICICI Lombard reported 5% yoy decline in health premiums in 1QFY21 on the back of 4%
yoy decline in group health policies. Strong growth in retail health policies likely reflecting
increased risk aversion among consumers provided cushion. While retail health was down
35% yoy in April 2020, it bounced back to 1.9X in May 2020 and 43% yoy growth in June
2020, respectively. Within group health, the company is increasingly focusing on small and
mid-sized companies where pricing pressure in low; this segment is less profitable for the
company and hence not an area of focus.
The company has launched new health policies (Covid-19 defined benefit, Arogya
Sanjeevani and two other products under IRDAIs regulatory sandbox) to attract retail
customers. Management guided that retail health policies sold through individual channels
recorded strong growth while it was marginally down for policies sold through the banca
channel (including sale through strategic tie-ups).
Within retail health, the share of indemnity products has increased. According to
management, retail indemnity new business was up 26% in 1QFY21 (up 70% yoy for June
2020). For the retail health segment, growth is a function of penetration into newer
geographies and launch of new customer-centric products.
Fire premiums up 42% yoy in 1QFY21
GIC had increased property reinsurance rates in March 2019 (average rise of 2X) for eight
occupancies (comprising 35% of industry volumes) and subsequently for all 291 occupancies
from January 2020. Lower reinsurance and higher share of commercial business continued
to drive overall growth in premiums in the fire segment.
Health to support growth even as motor remains weak
FY2021E – a weak year for motor business. We expect gross written premium to
decline 5% yoy in FY2021E on the back of (1) sharp decline in motor business and (2)
gradual moderation in fire premiums (up 34% yoy in June 2020 compared to 43-52%
yoy over the past two months). Strong traction in health on the back of increased
demand from smaller companies and SMEs coupled with increased risk aversion among
individuals driving growth in retail health will cushion decline in premiums.
ICICI Lombard Insurance
KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 33
Weak auto sales will pull down motor premiums. Our auto analyst expects 15% yoy
decline in 2Ws and higher decline in CVs in FY2021E and flat PVs (on a low base).
Additionally, renewal premiums over the year will likely be marginally lower.
IRDAI has directed stable motor TP rates for FY2021E till further notice and this can
affect growth in premiums to a marginal extent.
Competition and pricing pressure remains heightened in the motor OD segment,
which will put pressure on incremental business.
Post revised guideline by IRDAI, general insurers are restricted from selling long-term
motor OD policy (17% penetration in private cars and 17.5% penetration in 2Ws as of
FY2020) bundled with motor TP policies – this will reduce advance premium to some
extent, affect growth forecasts of later years.
ICICI Lombard has increased share of highly profitable PVs (up to 59.2% in 1QFY21
from 56.7% in FY2020 and 50% in FY2019) in overall motor TP mix and decreased
share of CVs (down 350 bps yoy to 14.8% in 1QFY21). The share of the latter is,
however, expected to increase owing to portfolio rebalancing.
Strong growth in health (including travel and personal accident) premiums in
FY2021E. We expect strong growth in health premiums in FY2021E on the back of
strong growth in retail business. Health benefit business will remain weak due to lower
disbursement by NBFCs and HFCs (down ~10-30% yoy in FY2021).
Growth in group health business will be driven by increase in penetration towards
smaller clients (SMEs, mid-tier companies, etc.). The company has witnessed increase
in pricing pressure in larger companies and select cohorts and has decided to expand
in a cautious manner. In case of rising pricing pressure in the smaller tier companies,
growth can moderate from peak levels.
Increase in retail health business will be a function of (1) rising risk aversion among
probable buyers post the pandemic, (2) increase in demand for pandemic-related
health insurance, (3) channel expansion strategies, (4) penetration into smaller towns
and tier-II and tier-III cities and (5) higher acquisition through digital channels. ICICI
Lombard has expanded its agency base to ~50,000 in 1QFY21 (addition of >2,200
agents in the quarter) from 37,500+ in FY2019. Additionally, management is focused
on providing value added services to customers to increase customer engagement and
retention. For example, it has launched ‘IL Take care’ where tele-consulting is provided
by doctors to health policyholders in the government business and the same has been
extended to the retail channel also.
The company has launched two products approved by IRDAI under the regulatory
sandbox. Continue product innovation will drive growth in the retail health business.
Going ahead, focus of most insurers will be to provide integrated solutions to its
customers (monitoring overall health, linking premiums to improvement in health
condition for renewals, co-pay based models, etc.)
Travel insurance will witness steep decline in FY2021E owing to restrictions on
travelling. Additionally, increasing risk aversion among travelers will likely lead to a
ripple effect and this segment will remain weak over the medium term. Overseas
medical premiums were down 90% yoy in 1QFY21.
Past experiences from previous epidemics like SARS and MERS suggest health
insurance business pick up pace post the epidemic. Given rising hospitalization
expense, growing awareness among consumers, low health insurance penetration and
ease of buying through digital channels, health insurance will likely maintain strong
growth at ~18% CAGR in FY2021-23E.

Fire to moderate. We expect fire premiums to moderate from 43% yoy in FY2020.
While rise in reinsurance rate will continue to drive rise in premiums in 1HFY21E, lower
retail business can put pressure on overall volumes. In the B2B segment, business growth
will likely hold on. GIC had increased tariff rates (average rise of 2X) for eight occupancies
(comprising 35% of industry volumes) in March 2019 and subsequently for all 291
occupancies from January 2020. The increase in tariff will, however, act as business
tailwinds over the next few quarters.

Sharp decline in motor-related claims in 1QFY21
Overall claims ratio declined 570 bps yoy/10 bps qoq to 69.8% in 1QFY21 led by sharp
decline in motor-related claims. Claims, however, increased in marine (select one or two
accounts), health (led by Covid-related claims to the tune of ~Rs200 mn) and crop segment
(impact of Cyclone Amphan and Nisarga to the tune of Rs0.31 bn).
Overall traffic volumes were low during the quarter due to lockdown-related disruptions and
social-distancing measures. This led to 2,070 bps yoy and 530 bps yoy decline in motor TP
and motor OD claims ratio, respectively to 70.2% and 62.9% in June 2020. While the actual
claims realized by the company were significantly lower than normal levels, the company has
taken a conservative approach towards claims provisioning.
Crop claims increased 50 bps qoq/down 20 bps yoy to 111.2% on the back of Rs0.3 bn of
increased cyclone-related claims (impact of ~130 bps).
Health claims ratio increased 750 bps yoy to 75.5% owing to higher claims for Covid (~200
mn). Standard retail health claims, however, remain low as consumers are likely deferring
hospitalization treatment.
Marginal improvement in claims ratio over medium term; Covid claims will
remain monitorable
We expect overall claims ratio to be broadly stable at 72.9% in FY2021E and decrease by
80-100 bps over FY2021-23E to 71.9% by FY2023E.
Claims ratio to increase in motor TP. Amid absence of rate hike, we build in increase in
claims ratio in the motor TP segment. Motor OD claims will likely increase as
transportation activity picks up hereon; this segment anyway remains competitive.
Covid-related claims crucial. ICICI Lombard reported claims of 75.5% in the health
segment (68-71% in past four quarters) likely reflecting higher claims related to Covid.
While current experience has been good, exponential rise in cases in the country is likely
driving the company to make higher reserving at this stage.
The offtake and claims experience of the recently launched Covid policies is also not
known, driving the company to take a conservative stance.

Combined ratio down 75 bps yoy/40 bps qoq to 99.7% in 1QFY21E; expect inch
up
Combined ratio declined 75 bps yoy/40 bps qoq to 99/7% on the back of improvement in
claims ratio. Adjusted for impact of catastrophic events (cyclones), combined ratio was lower
at 98.4% in 1QFY21 compared to 100.1% in 4QFY20 and 99.7% in 1QFY20.
We expect combined ratio to remain high at ~101% over medium term. While claims ratio
will be broadly stable, it will be offset by increase in operating expense ratio. The company
will continue to invest in digital initiatives, diversification of channel mix and business
promotion activities. Competition continues to intensify across most segments (mostly in
motor and health) putting pressure on overall cost ratios. In the health segment,
management has guided hat it will continue to penetrate into smaller segments to drive
retail health and investment in agency channel. This will lead to significant increase in overall
expenses in this segment.

Investment yield moderates
ICICI Lombard reported 5% yoy decline in investment income in 1QFY21 largely led by 56%
decline in profit on sale of investments; interest/dividend income was up 12% yoy. While
investment book was up 19% yoy, calculated yield (including capital gains) moderated to
7.6% from 9.4%. We expect decline in interest rates to keep investment yields under
pressure in the next two years. The pace of growth in investment book will also moderate a
bit due to lower volumes in the long-term policies leading to lower advance premium.
Notably, advance premium was almost flat qoq at Rs30 bn, up from Rs18.6 bn in 1QFY20.

Improving collections encouraging; lending begins slowly
LTFH reported sharp improvement in retail collections – up 150% mom in June 2020 and 23%
mom (on a low base) in May 2020. Collections were high at 65-70% of June 2019 levels in
June 2020 compared to 45-50% levels for 1QFY21. Consequently, its moratorium has declined
to about 44% in June from 79% in March 2020. Notably, a borrower needs to repay all past
dues to exit from the moratorium. The trend in the first fortnight of July is encouraging as well
– retail collections up 15% yoy (compared to similar time-frame in June 2020). 30% of retail
customers who had opted for moratorium as of June 30, 2020 have paid EMI installments for
July 2020.
LTFH almost stopped disbursements post the lockdown. The company resumed lending in
tractors, encouraged by improving recoveries (18% moratorium in June is a tad lower than
85% pre-Covid collection efficiency) and financed about 10,000 vehicles in June – one of its
best-ever months. The company is now resuming lending in microloans and will gradually
consider other segments as well. The liquidity side remains strong anyway.
Near-term risks remain amid improving trends; ADD
Even as incremental trends are encouraging, we are yet to get clarity on lockdown-related credit
costs. Local-level lockdowns and weaker-than-expected improvement in collections after the
initial spurt pose risks of disappointments. This is the likely reason for LTFH to create extra
provisions. We continue to build in similar credit costs for the next nine months – will review the
same as we get clarity on the scenario. We expect provisioning buffer to increase to ~7.4% of
loan book (6.3% in the focused segment) by March 2021E from about 5% currently.
Risk to asset quality performance (detailed above) poses risk of volatility in the wholesale
funding markets as well. High credit rating and parentage of L&T help though some challenges
may not be ruled out; the company hence maintains high average cash/liquid investments (7%
of average AUM) on balance sheet. Even as other NBFCs have announced capital issuance to
further comfort lenders (though leverage levels are comfortable for most), LTFH is yet to take
call on the same. Stake-sale in the AMC business is a buffer. The parent is not constrained on
funding; this may prompt LTFH to consider a rights issue.
With mixed outlook on business (interplay of improving trends with a challenging macro), we
retain ADD rating as we roll over our SoTP-based FV to Rs90 (June 2022E) from Rs85.
L&T Finance Holdings (LTFH) Diversified Financials
So far, so good. LTFH’s mom improvement in collections is encouraging though on
expected lines against the backdrop of gradual opening up of the lockdown. This trend,
coupled with comfort on liquidity, encourages the company to slowly resume
disbursements. However, clarity on eventual credit costs for FY2021E is still to emerge,
prompting the company to increase provision buffers. We retain ADD rating with Fair
Value of Rs90 (from Rs85).

Elevated provisions dent earnings
LTFH’s consolidated PAT declined 73% yoy owing to higher provision for Covid (including
macro-prudential provisions), weak NII (down 6% yoy for the focused lending business
segment) and fees (down 60% yoy for the focused lending business segment).
PAT from lending business (including defocused business) declined 73% yoy to Rs1.4 bn in
1QFY21. PBT before provisions of the focused businesses was down 22% yoy on the back
of 6% yoy decline in NII. Higher liquidity on balance sheet driving NIM compression and
slowdown in AUM growth (up 4% yoy from peak levels of >20% yoy till 2QFY20) were key
reasons. Fees declined 60% yoy for the focused business segment on the back of 76% yoy
decline in disbursements. Operating expenses was muted at 5% yoy owing to lower
variable-linked incentives during the quarter.
The de-focused business reported loss of Rs560 mn during the quarter due to Rs2.8 bn of
incremental provisions (~5% of AUM) incurred in 1QFY21. Out of this, Rs2.3 bn was
adjusted from gains from stake-sale in the wealth business. On a qoq basis, loss of the
defocused business increased to Rs2.2 bn (excluding gains from stake-sale) as compared to
Rs1.74 bn in 1QFY20 and Rs700 mn in 4QFY20.
Gross stage 3 ratio was down 12 bps qoq/50 bps yoy to 5.24% due to higher collections
from the rural segment, mostly led by higher recoveries in tractors. A significant proportion
of AUM (44% for retail and ~40% for wholesale and real estate finance) is under
moratorium and camouflages asset quality behavior due to relaxation in asset classification
(dpd freeze for account under moratorium).
PAT for the investment management business was Rs0.5 bn (decline in AAUM and marginal
qoq reduction in equity mix were likely drivers). AAUM was down 21% yoy/8% qoq to
Rs584 bn.
Collections have improved from trough levels though lower than comfort levels
Retail collections have picked up; yet to reach comforting levels. Overall
moratorium for retail segment (based on number of customers) declined to 44% in June
(~34% in terms of AUM) from 79% in March 2020. LTFH has offered moratorium to all
retail customers whose repayments have not standardized post May 31, 2020 (end of first
tranche of moratorium), under the second tranche and as such decline in share of
moratorium reflects pick-up in collections. Within the retail segment, tractor collections
have improved significantly owing to strong rural sentiment on the back of a robust rabi
harvest and expectation of a normal monsoon.
Overall collection efficiency has improved sequentially in June 2020 over April and May
2020. This was led by (1) higher engagement of field employees with customers
(mostly MFI) as lockdown-related restrictions were eased), and (2) ramp-up in
collection efforts with dedicated customer engagement sessions. Collections in June
2020 were ~65-70% of June 2019 levels compared to ~45-50% in 1QFY20.
The share of customers under moratorium declined to 18% in tractors in June 2020
from elevated levels of 75% in April 2020. In the 2W segment, share of customers
under moratorium peaked in May 2020 at 70% but moderated in June 2020 to 33%.
this likely reflected higher focus on cash conservation during the initial months of
lockdown. As of June 30, 2020, 48% of MFI customers are under moratorium.
Share of home loan and LAP customers declined to 33% in June 2020 from >50% in
April and May 2020 led by strengthening of on-field collection efforts.
Despite strong uptick in collections in the retail segment, the share of AUM under
moratorium remains high at 34%, indicating significant risk of deterioration in asset
quality over the next few quarters. Management has ramped up coverage on the book
(overall ECL coverage) to around 3.5% on the overall rural book though one expects
provisions to remain elevated over the next few quarters.

KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 45
Early retail collection trends in July 2020 look promising. ~30% of retail customers
who had opted for moratorium as of June 30, 2020 have paid July EMI installment. Early
signs in 2QFY21 are encouraging with collections up to July 14, 2020 being 15% higher
than similar time-frame in June 2020. Average daily collections for the rural segment have
increased to ~0.27 mn in July 2020 compared to 0.12 mn in June 2020 and <0.02 mn in
April 2020 and May 2020.
Bounce rates in the tractor segment are <50% in July 2020 compared to 69% in April
2020 and ~40% under normal conditions. Bounce rates are different collection
efficiency (if recovery happens in the same month, the account is a successful
collection despite a bounce).
Bounce rates in the 2W segment have reduced to <50% in July 2020 from 60% in
April 2020 and 25-30% under normal conditions.
High share of real estate AUM under moratorium poses concerns. ~83% of real
estate AUM and ~25% of infrastructure AUM (including IDF) is also under moratorium as
of June 2020. ~80% of projects in real estate book are under construction and have
hence opted for moratorium though management guided that funds in DESRA are
sufficient to service debt obligations till March 2021 for most of these accounts. We
remain cautious of under-construction projects under moratorium as overall retail housing
sales remain muted and overall housing inventory in the systems has increased to ~4-5
years.
Despite weakness in overall residential real estate sales, overall collections in escrow
have improved to 33% of pre-Covid levels in June 2020, up from 14-15% in the prior
months. In 86% of under-construction projects, construction activities have resumed
from June 2020 onwards.
Toll-road collections in the infrastructure segment have increased to 80% in June 2020
from 60% in May 2020 and 30% in April 2020 (post resuming operations from April
22, 2020).
Provisions to remain elevated; coverage on loans increased ~100 bps qoq to
>5%
>Rs11 bn of provisions incurred in 1QFY21. LTFH incurred provisions of ~Rs9 bn
(excluding extra provisions made against one-off gains of Rs2.3 bn from sale of wealth
management business). These provisions were a combination of higher provisions on GS3
loans increasing coverage to 69% from 59% qoq, Covid-related provisions, macro-
prudential provisions and provisions to a specific large conglomerate account (Rs2.3 bn,
coverage ramped up to 100% in 1QFY21). Overall credit cost remained elevated at 4.2%
(including extra-provisions from stake-sale) compared to 2.8% in 4QFY20 and 1.3% in
1QFY20.
69% coverage on consolidated stage 3 loans for lending business. LTHF’s coverage
on stage 3 loans is high at ~69%. While coverage for rural and infrastructure business
(excluding IDF) is high at 93% and 63% respectively, it is relatively lower at 33% for the
housing finance segment owing to high security cover on such assets. Slowdown in
residential real estate sales and consequent price correction can dampen effective
realizations, however. The company has ramped up coverage on stage 3 loans in de-
focused business to ~70%.
Diversified Financials L&T Finance Holdings
46 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH
>5% coverage on the overall book. LTFH’s coverage on the overall book (consolidated
lending business including de-focused segment) is ~5.1% as of 1QFY21 (up 100 bps
qoq). Coverage on stage 1 and 2 loans is low at ~1.7%, up 60 bps qoq. Excluding
standard ECL provisions, the company has 2.9% coverage (macro-prudential and other
Covid-related provisions) on rural stage 1 and 2 loans, 1.7% coverage on housing stage 1
and 2 loans and 0.1% coverage on infrastructure (excluding IDF) stage 1 and 2 loans.
While the coverage on the overall book has increased over the past two quarters, the
high share of unsecured loans (ex. MFI) and loans with high LGDs (ex. 2W) will likely drive
higher incremental provision across select asset classes.
Credit cost to remain elevated at 3.4% in FY2021E. We expect credit cost to remain
elevated over the next few quarters owing to (1) increase in delinquencies from accounts
under moratorium from 2QFY21 and 3QFY21 onwards and (2) increase in coverage on
non-delinquent stressed accounts in select customer cohorts (LAP, self-employed housing,
2W, real-estate finance, etc.) and (3) further increase in provisions on the de-focused
book. Overall credit costs will likely increase ~80 bps yoy to 3.4% in FY2021E and
marginally decline to 2.8% in FY2022E.
We expect credit cost in the rural business to increased ~100 bps qoq to 5.5% in
FY2021E driven by elevated provisions for MFI and 2Ws. While collections from
tractors have picked up meaningfully, it is yet to reflect in MFI and 2Ws. Given the
high LGDs in these segment (100% for the former and ~60-80% for the latter), the
company will likely frontload provisions in FY2021E.
We expect sharp 180 bps yoy increase in credit cost for the housing segment to 3.1%
in FY2021E. Higher slippages from LAP coupled with likely increase in delinquencies
from under-construction real estate account will drive provisions in these segment. As
a prudent practice, management will likely keep higher coverage on stage 2 assets.
Credit cost in the wholesale book (infrastructure and IDF) will likely increased 80 bps
yoy to 1.6%. Credit cost in the de-focused book will likely remain high at ~9%.
Business growth to remain weak
Disbursements down 76% yoy in 1QFY21. Overall disbursements declined 76% yoy in
1QFY21 on the back of sharp decline in disbursements across most segment barring
tractors. Business disruptions owing to lowdown, cautious stance in select segment and
tightened underwriting norms were key drivers. AUM was muted at 4% yoy; negligible
repayments and Rs650-670 mn of accrued interest provided cushion to moderation in
AUMs.
In the rural segment, AUM growth was muted at 6% yoy on the back of 78% yoy
decline in disbursements. Tractors disbursements were down 32% yoy and provided
some support. On the back of strong rural sentiment, tractors volumes were up ~23%
yoy in June 2020. LTFH financed >10,000 tractors in the period, similar to its highest
ever monthly disbursements.
In the housing segment, AUM growth was muted at 4% yoy led by 85% yoy decline
in disbursements; this was due to negligible repayments. Home loans disbursements
were down 90% yoy. LAP was negligible in 1QFY21. Real estate finance disbursement
to the tune of Rs2.5 bn (down 80% yoy) was only towards existing under construction
projects.
Disbursements declined 67% yoy (>90% of incremental disbursements in 1QFY21 was
towards renewables) in infrastructure (including IDF) segment. AUM growth was
muted at 2% yoy.
L&T Finance Holdings Diversified Financials
KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH 47
Business growth to revive from 2QFY21 though overall volumes will remain weak
in FY2021E. We expect overall AUM growth to remain muted at 3% yoy in FY2021E on
the back of sharp decline in disbursements in 1HFY21. While overall disbursements will
marginally revive from 2QFY21, it will take a few quarters for overall volumes to bounce
back to pre-Covid levels.
Rural AUM growth will further moderate to 2% yoy (up 8% yoy in FY2020) in
FY2021E from peak levels of 50-70% yoy during FY2018-19. Muted pace of AUM
growth in MFI (the company has tightened exposure limits for new customers and
reduced focus on select geographies) and 2Ws (tightened of LTVs to 68% from 74%
and muted new sales; our auto analyst expects ~15% yoy decline in 2Ws in FY2021E)
are likely drivers. Growth in tractor AUMs will be marginally higher at 5% yoy due to
strong rural sentiment and expectation of a normal monsoon (our auto analyst expects
5% yoy increase in tractor volumes in FY2022E).
Housing AUM will be muted at 2% yoy owing to (1) cautious stance of LAP, (2)
tightened underwriting for select customer cohorts (ex. self-employed) in home loans
and (3) incremental fresh disbursements for completion of existing projects in real
estate finance will lead to muted AUM growth.
Infrastructure AUM will remain muted at 5% yoy and the company will continue to
focus on select sectors like road, renewables, etc.
Higher liquidity on balance sheet to put pressure on margins
LTFH’s reported NIM declined 70 bps qoq/50 bps yoy to 5% in 1QFY21 owing to higher
liquidity on balance sheet and marginal pressure on yields (down 20 bps yoy/flat qoq) likely
reflecting change in portfolio mix. Additionally, increasing share of long-term borrowings
has put some pressure on funding cost, though incrementally, borrowing mix will likely
remain stable. The company maintained average liquidity buffer of Rs66 bn during 1QFY21
leading to Rs1.4 bn of higher interest expenses incurred during the quarter (~40-50 bps
drag on margins). Even as improvement in overall funding environment and pick-up in
collection will lead to gradual decline in liquidity buffer, increase in share of low-yielding
loans will continue to drag margins. We build-in ~10 bps yoy compression in margins in
FY2021E. As liquidity buffer decline, margins will bounce back by 50-60 bps over FY2022-23E.
ALM position comfortable
LTFH has maintained cumulative positive ALM gap in every bucket till 1 year. Cumulative gap
till 6 months is high at 75% while cumulative gap till 1 year is high at 90%. The company
reported liquidity worth Rs167 bn (up from Rs155 bn qoq) with Rs91 bn in the form of cash,
FDs and other liquid instruments, Rs56 bn of undrawn back-up credit lines and Rs20 bn of
back-up line from parent (L&T).
LTFH’s capital position is comfortable with CAR of 21.2% and tier-1 ratio of 17.2%.
Management guided that any further capital infusion will be a function of overall demand
environment and incremental collection efficiencies.
Lower volumes to drive sharp decline in fees
Fees down 60% yoy in 1QFY21. Overall fee income decline 60% yoy (fees constituted
~8% of overall revenues in FY2020) owing to lower disbursements during the quarter.
Fees will remain under pressure due to weak disbursements and lower cross-sell fees. Fee
income was down 78% yoy in rural business, 42% yoy in housing segment and 60% yoy
in infrastructure segment (including IDF).
Steep decline in fees in FY2021E. We expect sharp 38% yoy decline in fees in FY2021E
on the back of lower disbursements during the year. Additionally, cross-sell fees will

decline during this period. As growth improves from FY2022E, fee income will likely
report 13% yoy growth in FY2022E.
Cost efficiencies yet to reflect fully
Operating expense up 5% yoy in 1QFY21. Growth in operating expenses was muted
at 5% yoy (focused business).. Management guided that the company has undertaken
several initiatives to reduce fixed cost and the impact of the same will be visible in
upcoming quarters. Cost-to-average AUM was flat yoy at 1.6% (down 25 bps qoq).
Operating expenses growth was surprisingly strong at 36% yoy for housing finance – this
was likely driven by high investments in collection efforts.
Cost-to-average AUM will likely decline ~25 bps for focused business in FY2021E.
We expect ~10% yoy decline in operating expenses (focused business) in FY2021E owing
to pause in business expansion, cost rationalization (overall micro-loan meeting centers
declined y 110 qoq in 1QFY21), renegotiation of select fixed expenses verticals and lower
variable volume-linked incentives. Investment in collection engine will, however, put some
pressure. We expect cost-to-average AUM to decline ~25 bps qoq to 1.6% and remain
stable thereafter.
Focus on running down the de-focused book; coverage on stage 3 loans low at
~70%
LTFH moved the DCM and structured corporate finance business to the defocussed book in
1QFY20 with an aim to run down the business and release capital for focused businesses,
which now includes rural finance, housing finance and infrastructure finance. Consequently,
the erstwhile ‘wholesale business’ was renamed as ‘infrastructure finance (including IDF)’.
The defocused book now makes up 5.4% of the overall portfolio and has an AUM of Rs52 bn.
Gross stage 3 loans in the de-focused book were stable qoq at ~23%. The overall stage 3
coverage on this book is high at ~70%. The company utilized stake-sale gains of Rs2.3 bn to
provide for one large account in this segment (100% coverage as of June 30, 200).
PAT down 24% yoy in 1QFY21 for asset management business
L&T AMC’s PAT decreased 24% yoy (down 18% qoq) to Rs500 mn owing to lower average
AUMs during the quarter and marginal decline in share of average equity AUMs. While
MTM gains have led to higher qoq closing AUMs, overall AAUMs were down 21% yoy in
1QFY21 (down 18% qoq). High yielding equity AAUMs (excluding ELSS) were down 26%
yoy/19% qoq.

1QFY21—stellar quarter, ahead of our highest-on-the-Street estimates
Consolidated revenues grew 27% yoy to Rs34.2 bn, 1% above our estimate. Volumes grew
21.5% yoy and price/mix contributed about 5%. GM expanded 125 bps yoy to 41.7% (KIE
41.4%) led by modest inflation in RM prices. EBITDA grew 82% yoy to Rs7.2 bn, 7% above our
estimate. EBITDA margin expanded 645 bps yoy to 21.2% (KIE 20%). Other expenses were
contained well; increase in variable costs associated with higher volumes was more than offset
by a sharp cut in A&P spends (cost savings of 200 bps of revenues), operating leverage and
freight cost savings. Recurring PAT grew 108% yoy to Rs5.5 bn.
Standalone net operating revenues grew 24% yoy, gross profit grew 25% yoy and EBITDA
grew 73% yoy led by 580 bps expansion in EBITDA margin to 20.9% (KIE 20.3%). Recurring
net profit grew 97% yoy. Subsidiaries—revenues grew 66% yoy, EBITDA grew 600% yoy aided
by 15/17 ppt expansion in GM/EBITDA margin; Growth was led by dairy and margin expansion
was driven by increased salience of value-added products in dairy (cheese) and good
performance in the high-margin international business.
Short-term pop or a few structural positives as well?
BRIT 22% volume growth in 1Q is attributable to (1) benefits from pantry loading in the
lockdown phase. We note that in case of biscuits, pantry loading is also translating into higher
consumption, and (2) solid execution—BRIT managed to resume operations at most of its
manufacturing facilities and almost 90% of its distributors were operational, in the very first
week of the lockdown. Subsequently, it scaled up production despite labor shortage and
ensured timely supply. BRIT has also displayed impressive cost management. Covid may just
have reinvigorated the otherwise-slowing-down biscuits category, in our view. We also believe
that part of the cost savings will sustain.
We raise FY2021-23E (1) revenue estimates by 2-3%, and (2) margin assumptions by 40-70
bps. Net result—EPS increases by 3-5%. Revise DCF-based Sep-2022E Fair Value to Rs4,150
(Rs3,300 earlier), implying a 12M-forward PE of 45X. Upgrade the stock to ADD (from
REDUCE).

Execution finesse. Britannia delivered a stellar 1QFY21 on the back of lockdowns-led
strong momentum for its categories and excellent execution in overcoming logistical
challenges. Even as a repeat of 1Q on growth or margins is unlikely, we do believe the
super-strong momentum should sustain for at least another quarter or two. More
important, we believe (1) the lockdown phase may have reinvigorated biscuits as a
category and (2) BRIT now has the margin surplus needed to reinvest aggressively in
adjacencies and new categories. We raise our EPS estimates by 3-5% and upgrade the
stock to ADD (from REDUCE) with a revised FV of Rs4,150/share (Rs3,300 earlier).

Conference call highlights
Demand environment. Without sharing any specific details, the management indicated
that it has not seen any material change in demand in the month of July.
Key data points. (1) Per management, biscuits category would have grown in double
digits in June quarter, (2) rural accounted for 37% of revenues, (3) a sharp cut in A&P
spends resulted in 200 bps savings, (4) inventory of stock down to 3 days from 11 days;
BRIT is managing very tight inventory replenishment system, (5) ICD as of June 2020-end
was flat sequentially (Go Air repaid but ICDs to group were at similar levels),
(6) croissants—renewed product would hit the market in 3QFY21, (7) bread and rusk
grew faster than biscuits, and (8) within dairy, cheese grew at a very high growth rate
aiding profitability. Milkshakes growth was impacted by drop in on-the-go consumption.
Dairy project and capex plans. Britannia plans commercial production at its upcoming
dairy plant (Ranjangaon) in the next 20 months. Beyond dairy capex, Britannia is putting a
new plant in Bihar, Tamil Nadu and UP (UP is emerging as the second largest market for
BRIT) and a few more lines in Ranjangaon in the next two years. The management has
guided capex of Rs7 bn for bakery products over the next 2-3 years. This is in addition to
maintenance capex and capex already planned for the dairy business.
Distribution reach. BRIT’s share has increased in most channels—GT grew 30% higher
than company average. MT sales were hit as a lot stores were shut. The alternate channel
(railway, institutional canteens, airlines) were also hit. E-commerce did well but the
channel only contributes 1% to revenues.

1QFY21 print respectable on the back of healthy (opportunistic) sanitizer sales
Net operating revenues declined 18% yoy to Rs1.96 bn, better than our estimate of ~31%
decline. Adjusted for sanitizer sales of Rs170-180 mn, topline was only marginally ahead. ADHO
volumes were down 23.5%. Changes in product mix impacted gross margins (down 330 bps to
64.4%) even as there were RM tailwinds; we estimate sanitizer GMs to be around 40%.
EBITDA declined 19% yoy to Rs569 mn. Other expenses were down 32% yoy, aided by lower
ad-spends and aggressive cost control. PBT declined 12% yoy to Rs657 mn, aided partly by
higher other income. We note that cash balances are much higher on account of reduced
dividend payout. PAT benefitted from lower ETR, down only 8% yoy.
Company-level challenges exacerbated by the Covid-led disruption
Single-product dependence places a heavy premium on execution on any company. To be sure,
BajajCon executed well for a long period of time. Category slowdown, intensifying competition
and weakening execution since have led to dismal performance for the past few years.
Furthermore, the failed NoMarks acquisition and failed organic diversification attempts may
have taken away some of organization’s bandwidth. Covid disruption has hurt the company’s
recent Bain-advised micro-segmentation push to revive the core. Even as the company remains
committed to this push, macro backdrop may not be supportive for a while, in our view.
Tweak estimates to bake in sanitizer sales; ADD stays on undemanding valuations
Management was non-committal on whether the opportunistic sanitizer business becomes a
permanent part of the company’s portfolio or not. The sanitizer market has quickly become
extremely cluttered; regulated price caps put a ceiling on the category’s margins. At our
estimates of 40% GM levels, the category is massively dilutive to Bajaj Consumer’s GMs. That
said, we believe the company would continue to play in the sanitizer category given the weak
state of affairs in its core business. We incorporate sanitizer sales into our model and this drives
a 4-8% increase in revenue and 4-6% increase in EPS forecasts for FY2023E. DCF-based FV
stands revised to Rs200/share (from Rs170). Retain ADD.
Bajaj Consumer Care (BAJAJCON) Consumer Staples
Sanitizer sales aid 1Q print; path forward remains uncertain. Channel up-stocking,
opportunistic sanitizer sales, and sharp adspend cuts helped Bajaj Consumer report a
decent 1QFY21 print. The revenue recovery pace remains uncertain with the
management calling out fresh weakness in July on account of regional/local lockdowns.
Down-trading poses risks to the company’s premium flagship product ADHO. We
tweak our model to incorporate sanitizer sales – EPS forecasts for FY2021-23E go up
3.5-5.8%. Higher estimates plus rollover drive FV increase to Rs200 (from Rs170). ADD.

Conference call highlights
Covid impact. With hair oil not being categorized as an essential category, Bajaj
Consumer was unable to resume operations till April 15. Their entire chain (factories,
depots) started operating from the first week of May and currently all factories and
depots are operating. On the category trends, management highlighted that the demand
for amla hair oils has increased, indicating consumer down-trading amid a subdued
environment. Demand for hair oils continues to be weak but the disruption in rural
markets is less than urban.
Capex plans. There are no major capex plans and they will take 2-3 years to move to
their new office at Worli.
Favorable RM environment. Currently, LLP prices are at Rs48/kg (1Q average of
Rs57/kg). The company may look to provide some benefits of favorable RM mix to
consumers though promotions. .
Bain update. BajajCon has completed the mirco-segmentation of the markets it is
focusing on. They are now looking to expand the geographic scope of this service soon.
Other key highlights. (1) The situation with the CSD channel is still not extremely
smooth given receivable issues and restrictions on purchases. (2) The company’s focus will
be on growing absolute EBITDA and not just the margin profile. (3) Higher packs are
seeing higher saliency as consumers prefer to avoid going out much. (4) Income tax rate
is likely to be close to ~17.5% (MAT rate). (5) As-spends are likely to be in the range of
17-18%. (6) There was some restocking benefit this quarter.

Motor returns to positive
Motor witnessed muted 1% yoy growth in premiums in June 2020, improving from 23% yoy
decline in May 2020 and 49% yoy drop in April 2020. Increase in new auto sales and higher
share of renewals were likely drivers. Renewals have likely increased from trough levels observed
in April 2020 as traffic volumes gradually increase and overall cash flows improve. In TP
business, private players’ premiums were muted at 1% yoy while it was up 8% yoy for PSUs. In
the motor OD segment, PSUs were down 6% yoy compared to 2% yoy decline for private
players. Overall muted environment for new auto sales (our auto analyst forecasts flat PVs,
~15% yoy decline in 2Ws and significant decline for CVs in FY2021E) will continue to put
pressure on motor premiums. Additionally, insurers will have to discontinue long-term motor
OD policies post August 2020 resulting in partial hit on overall growth.
New age players and SBI perform better than the pack. Among key players, new age
players like Acko and Go Digit reported strong 16% yoy and 14% yoy growth, respectively. SBI
reported stellar 48% yoy growth in motor led by ~1X yoy jump in TP; the company reported
better-than-industry growth for the second month in a row.
Strong traction in retail health
Overall growth in health business was moderate at 9% yoy (8% yoy in 1QFY21). Even as
growth in retail health was strong at 43% yoy (25% in May and 4% in April), muted 12% yoy
growth in group health and sharp 88% yoy decline in government health premiums dragged
overall health premiums. Standalone health insurers reported 46% yoy increase in health
premiums led by 61% yoy increase in retail health business. PSUs reported 18% yoy growth in
retail health while private reported 41% yoy.
Standalone health insurers dominate retail health. Growth in retail heath was strong at
43% yoy most likely on the back of increased risk aversion among customers due to Covid-19
and introduction of new dedicated Covid-19 products (sold through proprietary channels or
third party aggregator platforms). Standalone health insurers reported strong 61% yoy growth
in retail health in June 2020 (higher than 12% yoy in FY2020). Investment by health insurers in
digital renewal of policies has likely paid off. Private players witnessed 41% yoy increase in retail
health insurance premiums in June 2020 on the back of 85% yoy growth for Chola MS, 1X yoy
jump for Tata AIG and 43% yoy growth for ICICI Lombard.
Fire firing!
Fire insurance premiums grew 47% yoy in June 2020. This was likely driven by higher retention
post rise in reinsurance rates by GIC. GIC had increased property reinsurance rates in March
2019 (average rise of 2X) for eight occupancies (comprising 35% of industry volumes) and
subsequently, for all 291 occupancies from January 2020. Unlike other segments, PSUs reported
strong 68% yoy jump in fire insurance compared to 30% yoy growth for private peers.
Insurance India
Improving across segments. General insurers reported 8% yoy growth in premiums
(excluding crop) in June 2020 led by 47% yoy growth in fire, robust 9% yoy growth in
health and revival in motor premium to 1% yoy from 23-49% yoy decline over the past
two months. Retail health was up 42% yoy; standalone health insurers reported 61%
yoy growth. Among key players, SBI reported strong growth across most segments
while ICICI revived partially led by motor and health. Bajaj was weak across segments.

Sequential improvement for most players
Private general insurers reported 5% yoy growth in premiums in June 2020 while it was
marginally lower for PSUs at 3% yoy. Improvement in premiums from 0-6% yoy decline for
PSUs over the past two months and 16-17% yoy decline for private peers was led by revival
in motor premiums (higher renewals and marginal increase in new auto sales), strong
traction in retail health and higher retention of fire premiums.
Crop reported strong 6% yoy growth led by 2.3X jump for specialized insurers and 16% yoy
growth for private players. PSUs continued to report weak growth in crop segment (down
48% yoy in June 2020 and 66% yoy in 1QFY21).
Aditya Birla Health and Star Health maintain strong pace of growth. Premium for
standalone health insurers was up 42% yoy led by strong growth for most players. HDFC
Ergo health and Religare health reported 8% yoy and 48% yoy growth in June 2020 post
reporting 14% and 54% yoy decline, respectively in May 2020. Aditya Birla Health and
Star Health continued to witness strong traction, up 71% yoy and 51% yoy, respectively
in June 2020 (72% yoy and 33% yoy, respectively in 1QFY21).
Acko revives; Go Digit maintains momentum. Among new age private players, Acko
was up 16% yoy (down 16% yoy in 1QFY21). Acko continued to reported strong growth
in motor at 22% yoy while it revived for Go Digit to 13% yoy (14% yoy decline in May
2020). In the health segment, Acko was up 9% yoy while Go Digit jumped 10X yoy led
by strong growth in the group health segment.
ICICI Lombard: Motor revives; retail health picks up pace. ICICI Lombard’s ex-crop
business was up 6% yoy in June 2020 on the back of strong growth in fire (up 34% yoy),
revival in motor (up 8% yoy) and strong traction in retail health (up 43% yoy). ICICI
Lombard has increased market share in retail health to ~3% in June 2020 from trough
levels of 2.5% in March 2020.
Bajaj GI: Weak across segments yet again. Bajaj GI’s overall (excluding crop) premiums
were down 9% yoy (excluding crop) on the back of 18% yoy decline in motor premiums.
Health insurance premiums were down 12% yoy due to 12% yoy decline in group
health. Retail health was up 24% yoy. Fire business grew 13% and cushioned sharp fall
in premiums.
Chola MS: Motor yet to revive; strong uptick in health. Chola MS reported 7% yoy
decline in gross premiums (ex-crop) despite 20% yoy decline in motor business. Strong
traction in retail health (up 85% yoy), group health (up 66% yoy) and fire (up 51% yoy)
supported overall growth.
SBI: Stellar growth across segments. SBI reported 44% yoy growth (excluding crop) in
June 2020 led by strong growth across most segments. Motor was up 48% (industry
growth of 1% yoy) while health increased 2.2X yoy (3.9X yoy growth in group health and
14% yoy increase in retail health). The company reported strong growth in crop in June
2020 at 3.9X yoy. SBI remained an important player in the crop insurance market with
16% market share in June 2020.
