Lack of support from NBFCs leads to GDL missing the revised timeline to pay Blackstone

Blackstone has given GDL an arbitration notice after the latter missed the revised timeline of

December 28, 2018 for paying the remaining Rs5.6 bn consideration and interest for buying

the CCPS in GRFL of the latter. The management ascribed the delay in payment to scarcity of

funding from NBFCs and has recently received board approval to raise Rs6.2 bn NCD.

Management expects to realize such amount by March 2019 and is aiming to convince

Blackstone of such arrangement. It has the current month to do so else the case would go for

international arbitration (3-6 month process), making the share purchase agreement signed in

June 2018 null and void. Management believes that the transaction would go through as it

banks on (1) lenders showing good interest and on (2) Blackstone being paid a reasonable

quantum for exit and the 15% interest paid on delay in payment.

Delay would impact value from transaction for GDL

With the delay in payment, GDL is likely on the back foot and would need to show intent in

order to save the deal. Lenders to the NCD may leverage such positioning of GDL to possibly

charge a higher interest rate. Note that GDL had earlier approached lenders for a bond issuance

for funding the stake buy (11%+ rate) only to go to NBFCs (10.5% rate offered then). There is

a possibility of Blackstone asking for a higher consideration in lieu of not going for an

international arbitration, though we consider limited gains if any to accrue to Blackstone. The

loss of value from the delay in transaction would essentially depend on the intent from GDL (or

the lack of it) to consolidate its stake in its rail transportation business.

Revise our SoTP to Rs195 to factor in higher cost of funding and share loss to road operators

We reduce our EV/EBITA multiple for the rail business to 11X (from 12X), factoring in a higher

12% cost of funding for the Rs6.2 bn of NCD. We also moderate down our volume/EBITDA

margin estimates for the rail business by 4%/50-150 bps over FY2019-21, leading to a 1-7%

decline in consolidated EBITDA. This is primarily on account of competitive pressure from road

operators that are benefitting from an improved cost structure. We defer the consolidation of

the rail business by six months, with FY2020 being the first full year of operations. CMP factors

in the CFS business at 5X EV/EBTIDA and the rail business being valued at Rs16 bn equity

valuation. Early reversal of the arbitration notice from Blackstone would be key trigger for GDL.

Gateway Distriparks (GDPL) Transportation

Delay in payment to lower value realization from Blackstone deal. The delay in

payment by GDL to Blackstone would unlikely jeopardize the transaction given a willing

seller and assuming a willing buyer. It would alter the terms from lenders to fund the

transaction. We lower the multiple for the rail business and also cut estimates to reflect

loss of share to road operators from rail operators; revise fair value to Rs195 from

Rs230. CMP factors in nil premiums to Rs16 bn deal valuation of the rail business. BUY.

Passenger vehicles: Low single-digit industry volume growth in December 2018

As per our calculations, passenger vehicle industry volumes grew only marginally (+2-4% yoy) in

December 2018; subdued festive season, reduction in dealer inventory and weaker consumer

sentiment weighed on industry volumes. Maruti’s overall volumes declined by 1% yoy to

128,338 units in December 2018 led by (1) 2% yoy growth in domestic volumes and (2) 36%

yoy decline in exports. Entry car segment volumes declined by 14% yoy while there was 4% yoy

decline in compact hatchback/sedan segments. Ciaz volumes grew by 99% yoy on a low base,

SUV volumes were up 5% yoy led possibly by launch of new Ertiga and vans segment volumes

grew by 39% yoy. In terms of other OEMs, domestic volumes of Hyundai/Honda reported

5%/4% yoy growth aided by attractive year-end offers and Toyota’s volumes were up 10% yoy.

Tata Motors’ PV volumes grew by 1% yoy led by the success of Nexon.

M&M’s auto volumes grow by 1% yoy; tractor volumes down 6% yoy in December 2018

Mahindra reported 1% yoy volume growth in the automotive segment, which was driven by

20-38% yoy growth in three-wheeler and export volumes. CV segment volumes declined by

4% yoy partly due to high base (volumes up 24% yoy in December 2017) while utility vehicle

volumes declined by 3% yoy—the positive impact of launch of Marazzo was possibly offset by

continued decline in TUV/KUV volumes. M&M’s overall tractor volumes declined by 6% yoy led

by 2% yoy decline in domestic volumes while export volumes were down 45% yoy. Escorts

reported 28% yoy growth in tractor volumes led by strong growth in both domestic and export

volumes, which reflects some market share gains for the company.

MHCV industry volumes remain under pressure in December 2018

Tata Motors reported 11% yoy decline in domestic CV volumes led by 27% yoy decline in

M&HCV truck volumes; this segment was largely impacted by drop in cargo sales due to low

consumer sentiments. However, the tipper segment continued to grow strongly at 14% yoy

and was relatively unaffected on the back of road construction, affordable housing, irrigation

projects and government spending on infrastructure projects. VECV’s volumes were up 3% yoy

led by 1% yoy growth in domestic volumes while exports were up 10% yoy. Ashok Leyland is

yet to report December 2018 volumes.

Royal Enfield volumes down 13% yoy; other two-wheeler OEMs yet to report numbers

Royal Enfield volumes surprised negatively and declined by 13% yoy led by 14% yoy decline in

domestic volumes while exports were up 41% yoy. We have been highlighting that two-

wheeler industry volumes will likely be subdued over the next two years due to increase in

vehicle prices post increase in insurance costs and weaker consumer sentiment. Other two-

wheeler OEMs are yet to report numbers; as per our understanding, retail demand has been

subdued and inventory levels are high, which would weigh on OEM’s wholesale volumes.

Automobiles & Components India

Weak end to CY2018; volumes weak across segments. Weak festive season and

need for reduction in dealer inventory levels impacted OEM’s dispatches in December

2018. As per our checks, demand is still subdued across most segments due to weak

consumer sentiment, which would impact industry volumes over the next few months.

We see downside risks to our FY2019E volume estimates for most companies,

particularly for four-wheeler OEMs (Ashok, M&M and Maruti) and Eicher; we note that

our two-wheeler industry volume estimates are already below Street expectations.

RBI permits one-time restructuring of impaired but yet to recognized as NPLs of MSME loans

RBI has permitted a one-time restructuring of MSME loans (loan exposure up to `250 mn by

both banks and NBFCs). The borrower (GST registered) should have defaulted/days-past-due

(0-90 days) as of January 01, 2019 but is currently to be classified as “standard”. The

restructuring should be completed by March 31, 2020 and lenders would have to make a

provision of 5% on these restructured loans and provide disclosures of the same in the notes to

accounts.

Share of MSME sector is 25% of overall loans with this segment contributing to ~13% of loans

MSME accounts for ~25% of commercial lending in India as of FY2018 (~`23 tn). The segment

has recorded 18% yoy growth in 1QFY19 (Exhibit 1). Of this, the exposure which is up to `250

mn is `13 tn (~13% of total loans) and grew 16% yoy. Growth is skewed towards the lower

end of the spectrum with average ticket size of <`5 mn. With a gradual push towards

formalization and higher availability of income disclosures on account of GST, credit growth has

ramped up in recent quarters. NBFCs and private banks have grown faster than public banks

(Exhibit 3).

The financial stability report discussed the quality of underwriting rather than rise in NPLs

We are quite surprised at the timing of the notification. Lenders usually step back lending when

the early warning indicators suggest rising trends of deterioration. However, the last available

data (1QFY19) suggests that lenders have been quite comfortable and growing this portfolio at

a healthy pace (Exhibit 2). The gross NPLs have been stable in recent quarters (Exhibit 4).

Further, the financial stability report that was released a few days back discussed the relative

differences in the quality of underwriting between different players as public banks have shown

disproportionately higher NPLs (Exhibits 5 and 6) than private banks or NBFCs.

RBI has suggested the need to tighten the credit screens when onboarding these borrowers for

public banks. However, this report did not speak of any alarming trends of NPLs in the near

term which required the RBI to provide a relief for these delinquent borrowers.

Public banks to benefit but don’t see immediate impact on banks/NBFCs under our coverage

Our recent interaction with banks/NBFCs on this topic suggests no meaningful impact on

banks/NBFCs under our coverage. The familiar risks remain: (1) quality of collateral, (2) ability to

monitor cash flows as diversion of funds is high (3) volatile margins of borrowers and (4) rising

NPL trends in the LAP portfolio across players. There is likely to be a fair amount of discussion

when the initial 3QFY19 results are out from private banks. We believe that we are not going to

see any worrying signs unless the recent liquidity tightness has caused a spike in early warning

signs as a few players like NBFCs, have played a critical role in recent quarters. We believe that

the impact of this guideline would be mostly on public banks, especially those that are under

PCA.

Banks India

MSME restructuring: an (un)expected move. RBI has allowed banks/NBFCs to

undertake a one-time restructuring exercise of MSME borrowers who are stressed but

yet to be classified as NPLs. Lenders would have to make 5% provisions on these

accounts. We don’t see material impact on banks/NBFCs under our coverage as the

trends are not showing any signs of further deterioration, but public banks, which have

higher impairments in this portfolio could stand to benefit. The timing is a surprise as

the last available data is not showing rising trends of impairment.

Pricing and promotions—price reduction in soaps in view of RM deflation

Refer to Exhibits 2 and 3 for pricing and promotional activity, respectively.

Soaps/detergents. We witness reduction in soap prices largely in multipacks (pack of 3-5

soaps); GCPL has cut prices of multipacks of Cinthol and Godrej No. 1 soaps by 6-7%.

Companies are passing on the benefit of RM deflation (palm oil prices down 19% over the past

six months) to drive volumes. We believe HUVR has also reduced prices on similar lines and

expect others to follow the suit. Promotional activity in detergents continues—HUVR and P&G

continue extra grammage/price cuts on 1-4 kg SKUs of premium variants of Surf and Ariel

(Exhibit 4). Jyothy has increased price of 1 kg SKUs of matics by 14-17% and introduced 50%

extra grammage. Pricing and promotions in the dish wash category were largely stable.

Personal care items. (1) Hair oils—pricing was largely stable across the board (copra prices

were flat mom in Nov 2018, down 23% yoy and cumulative drop of 30% since April) and

promotional activity was negligible. Dabur has increased price of Dabur Almond hair oil and

Dabur Anmol Gold coconut hair oil by 3-5%; we note that Marico, Bajaj Corp and Emami

have also increased prices of value-added hair oil variants/SKUs over the past 2-3 months,

(2) shampoos—we did not notice any incremental price intervention or promotions in

shampoos, and (3) oral care—Colgate has increased price of Colgate Total Advance Health

toothpaste by about 8% and Dabur has increased price of Meswak and Red by 2-3%.

We noticed step-up in in-store marketing in Modern Trade by HUVR— (1) HUVR has

provided lighted shelves highlighting functional aspects of several home care and personal

care products. We believe this initiative targets accelerated premiumization, and (2) we

witnessed LED display with promotional video of Dove hair care products.

Food/beverage items. (1) Biscuits—pricing and promotions were steady. Britannia and ITC

continue to offer extra grammage on several variants of Good Day and Mom’s Magic

biscuits, respectively, and (2) pricing and promotional activity is largely stable in tea/coffee,

edible oils, chocolates, juices, health/protein drinks and dairy products. ITC has reduced

grammage on Yippee mood masala variant of noodle translating into effective price increase

of 8%.

RM trends—mixed for agro-commodities; crude fall provides relief

Refer to Exhibit 4 for detailed RM inflation impact.

Agri-inputs. Agri commodities remained mixed in November. A rise of 6% mom was seen in

liquid milk prices while cocoa prices rose 3% mom. Moderate increase was seen in barley (up

2% mom) and India tea (up 2% mom). Wheat and corn prices stayed broadly flat for the

month. Some easing (down 1-2% mom) was seen in sugar and Robusta coffee.

Oil commodities basket. The highlight of the month was the sharp 19% mom collapse

seen in crude oil price. PFAD prices were down 19% mom, followed by palm oil (down 11%

mom), rice bran oil (down 7% mom) and sunflower oil (down 3% mom). Castor oil prices

were up 15% mom and kardi and groundnut oil were up 6% each; mentha oil was down

4% mom.

Consumer Staples India

Month in review—December 2018: price cuts in soaps/detergents. The KIE

consumer universe marginally outperformed broader markets, up 1% over the last

month. RM trends were mixed for agri-commodities while crude fall was a relief. On the

in-market activity front, we witnessed price reduction in multipacks of soaps, continued

promotions in detergents and modest price increases in hair oil and oral care. We retain

our ‘tread selectively’ stance; top picks: JUBI, CLGT, NEST, MRCO, BRIT and ITC.

Other commodities. Other commodities generally saw deflationary trends—domestic

styrene and VAM prices were down 9-14% mom, while both caustic soda and soda ash

prices declined 5% mom. Prices for LAB were up 2% mom while HDPE saw a modest 1%

mom correction; crude fall impact would be seen in these with a lag. Prices for most

other commodities were broadly flat.

Who benefits? (1) Lower crude oil prices should benefit HUL, GCPL, JYL, APNT and PIDI,

and (2) fall in caustic soda and soda ash prices should also help HUVR, GCPL and JYL.

Who gets impacted? (1) Increase in liquid milk prices could hurt Nestle, JUBI, BRIT and

GSK-CH, (2) increase in castor oil prices is negative for Marico, Dabur, Bajaj Corp and

APNT, and (3) increase in mentha oil prices hurts Emami, Colgate, HUVR and Dabur.

Sector (KIE consumer universe) outperforms broader markets

Our overall consumer coverage performed ahead of the broader markets over the past

month posting 1% return (flat, ex-ITC).

Key stocks that outperformed were—JYL (14%), UBBL (up 10%), CLGT (up 9%), GCPL (up

8%) and CDEL (up 6%). Key underperformers were Page (down 8%), UNSP (down 8%),

and PIDI (down 5%).

On a 12-month basis, the sector outperformed the broader markets posting 16% absolute

return (17% ex-ITC) versus 7% return for the broader markets. Our preferred picks—JUBI,

CLGT, NEST, MRCO, BRIT and ITC.

5-12% yoy growth rate in c/c; no unusual impact of furloughs

We expect constant currency (c/c) revenue growth rate of 1.2-4% on a sequential basis and

4.5-11.7% on yoy comparison for Tier-1 IT. We expect furloughs to be in line with the historical

trends and do not expect any unusual impact of the same for the quarter. We expect Infosys

and TCS to report c/c sequential revenue growth of 1.2% and 1.8%, respectively. Wipro will

report c/c growth rate of 2.2% led by the full-quarter benefit from the Alight Solutions deal.

HCLT will report acceleration in sequential revenue growth aided by ramp-up of the Nokia deal

and seasonal strength in the IP business; we forecast 3% organic qoq c/c revenue growth rate

and 3.3% on reported basis. We expect TM to report c/c qoq growth of 2.6% led by ramp-up

in telecom deals. The enterprise segment will be impacted by furloughs.

Expect stable margins despite some cross-currency headwinds

Strength of the USD against other currencies will result in modest cross-currency headwind of

70-80 bps. HCLT and Tech Mahindra will report sequential margin increase led by seasonal

strength in revenues and mix shift. Infosys will report marginal decline in margins due to

reinvestments in business and transition costs in large deals. TCS will likely report 40 bps

increase in margins on a sequential basis and increase of 170 bps on yoy comparison.

Appreciation in the INR against the USD towards the end of the quarter can result in forex

translation losses although it is difficult to quantify the same.

Mid-tier companies—expect growth momentum to continue

Mid-tier companies will report a stronger quarter than Tier-1 IT largely riding on the back of

momentum of the past few quarters. A few factors helped in building the growth momentum,

including uptick in spending, lower legacy drag and greater participation in deals (due to

reduced deal sizes). We expect sequential c/c revenue growth rate of 2.3-4.2% and yoy growth

rate of 12.6-18%. LTI will lead the pack with 4.2% c/c sequential and 17.3% yoy growth rate.

Mindtree had guided for similar growth rates in the December 2018 quarter when compared to

the September 2018 quarter. We expect Hexaware and Mphasis to report sequential revenue

growth of 2.6% and 3.4%, respectively.

CY2019 demand and risks to margins from onsite cost increase will be the key focus area

We expect the focus to shift to two key aspects for CY2019: demand and margin defense.

Tug-of-war between a potential slowdown and increasing deal sizes. The macro

environment is seemingly more volatile with expectations of a slower global GDP growth in

2019. Certain segments of the market such as manufacturing are showing signs of a

slowdown, based on our conversations with companies. On the positive side, (1) increasing

size of digital deals and (2) momentum in large deal closures in the past six months will

contribute to growth. We believe it is still too early to take a call on the direction of growth

for FY2020E although a growth rate similar to FY2019E could be a reasonable outcome. We

further note that none of the Tier-1 IT companies has indicated slowdown in budgeting

process, deal pipeline or decision-making although they typically are never the lead indicators

for demand.

IT Services India

December 2018 quarter preview. We expect a steady quarter for Tier-1 IT with 1.2-

4% sequential revenue growth rate in c/c. The December quarter is usually impacted by

furloughs although the magnitude is no different than earlier years. The focus will shift to

(1) CY2019 demand; positives of increase in deal momentum could be potentially offset

by a weaker macro and (2) margin protection strategies of companies in light of visa-

induced rise in the onsite cost structure. Infosys and Tech Mahindra are our top picks.

Likely increase in cost structure in US. Tightening of conditions for visas comes at a

time when the unemployment rates are at a record low. Even as IT companies have

stepped up local hiring, the fact is that talent is not easily available at the mid-level.

This could potentially impact cost structure in the US or even impact demand fulfillment.

Companies have to resort to a mix of subcontracting and offshore/nearshoring to meet

demand. This impacts margins. Companies will have to use to a mix of strategies to offset

the impact, including—(1) smarter pricing of resources. Clients are unlikely to pay up a

higher price for onsite resources due to talent shortage. Companies can try their luck on

pricing through COLA adjustments but need to be successful. Renegotiation of rate card

and MSAs is a long-drawn process that calls for involvement of the procurement team.

A possible workaround is smarter definition of ‘high skill’ or hot skill areas through which

vendors can ask for higher prices and can be decided upon without the involvement of

procurement teams and (2) rupee depreciation. In the normal course, rupee depreciation

benefits do get passed on to clients either through renegotiation of MSAs (gradual) or

adjustment of implied pricing (in short-duration fixed-price projects). It remains to be seen

whether the pricing gets readjusted in the current cycle noting increased onsite costs

resulting from constrained visa availability and select cases of staffing challenges.

These challenges are across all players.

Acknowledging the external risks, we believe many stocks are available at attractive

valuations. Infosys trades at 15.5X FY2020E earnings and 13.5X on FY2021E basis.

The company is on track to achieve peer-matching revenue growth in FY2020E backed by

credible steps for a turnaround, some of which are visible in large deal momentum and

smart hiring in large deals and consulting. Tech Mahindra trades at 12.5X FY2020E

earnings, attractive when considering pick-up in core telecom growth, steady enterprise

segment, increase in margin profile and optionality of 5G spending.

Comments on individual companies

Infosys. We expect sequential constant currency revenue growth of 1.2% and cross

currency headwind of 70 bps. 3Q is a seasonally weak quarter. We do not model revenue

flow from a large deal signed in the September 2018 quarter. We expect EBIT margin to

decline marginally as measures to curb attrition through retention bonuses and

investments in sales and digital competencies pick pace. We expect Infosys to tighten

constant currency revenue growth guidance to 7-8% from 6-8% band and maintain EBIT

margin band of 22-24%. We expect muted net profit growth on yoy comparison due to

lower treasury income after the company completed buyback of shares in the December

2017 quarter. The company has made solid progress in large deal signings and seems to

be taking steps in turning around the consulting business through high profile hires from

competition. Progress made by Infosys on catching up with competition on digital

competencies will be keenly tracked. We expect investors to focus on (1) TCV of deal

wins that has started looking up, (2) progress in curbing attrition that seems to have

reached worrying levels, (3) progress in service lines where the company trails

competition, viz. BPO and IMS and (4) pricing outlook, especially in light of fears that the

company has focused on a growth-at-any-cost approach.

TCS. We expect sequential constant currency revenue growth of 1.8% and cross currency

headwind of 70 bps. We expect broad-based growth across verticals led by general

demand buoyancy. We expect EBIT margin to expand by 40 bps led by operational

efficiencies. Growth acceleration and tailwinds from currency will result in an impressive

25% yoy growth in net profit. We expect investors to focus on (1) the impact of a volatile

macro on CY2019 demand and budgeting cycle, (2) pipeline of large deals, (3) whether

the company can deliver double-digit growth without the support of mega-deals, and

(4) EBIT margin outlook and reinvestment plans of the recent currency windfall.

Wipro. Adjusting for reorganization of India business (Wipro moved out India PSU &

government business that contributed US$34 mn from IT services segment), we expect

sequential constant currency revenue growth of 2.2% and cross-currency headwind of 70

bps. Revenue growth will be led by US$25 mn in incremental revenues from the Alight

deal. Revenue growth will be led by the financial services vertical while energy, healthcare

and manufacturing verticals will drag. We note that EBIT margin in September 2018

quarter was impacted by one-time settlement with National Grid; adjusting for the same,

EBIT margin was 18%. Also EBIT margin of December 2017 quarter had a one-time

impact of customer insolvency; adjusted margin for this period was 17.2%. We expect 20

bps qoq increase in margin led by full-quarter benefit of cost-rationalization initiatives of

the previous quarter. We expect Wipro to guide to 1-3% revenue growth for the March

2019 quarter, which is a seasonally strong quarter for the company. We expect investors

to focus on (1) sustainability of growth demonstrated in the September 2018 quarter,

(2) sustainability of margin, especially after cost rationalization undertaken at acquired

entities, (3) state of demand from weak utilities, healthcare and communications vertical,

(4) impact of recent oil price correction on E&U demand, and (5) performance of acquired

entities.

HCL Technologies. We expect HCLT to deliver sequential revenue growth of 3.3% in

reported currency. Decomposition of revenue growth is as follows—(1) organic constant

currency revenue growth rate of 3%, (2) contribution from H&D International of US$21

mn or 1%, and (3) cross currency headwind of 70 bps. The growth will be led by—

(1) large deal contribution in IMS business (+3.5% qoq) and (2) seasonal strength in the IP

business. We expect EBIT margin to increase 40 bps sequentially led by revenue uptick

and sharp sequential growth from higher-margin IP business. We expect the company to

maintain 9.5-11.5% constant currency revenue growth guidance. Organic revenue

growth for FY2019E will be higher than the earlier expected 5.25%. We expect investors

to focus on (1) products business strategy in the light of aggressive acquisitions,

(2) synergies in services business from product acquisitions, (3) deal momentum in IMS,

and (4) measures to turn around the underperforming applications business.

Tech Mahindra. We expect constant currency revenue growth of 2.6% and cross

currency headwind of 75 bps. The telecom vertical will report constant currency revenue

growth of 4.5%, while enterprise segment growth will be marginal at 1%, impacted by

furloughs. We expect EBIT margin to increase 20 bps sequentially led largely by

operational tightening. We forecast marginal forex loss as compared to gain of US$7.5

mn in the previous quarter. We expect TCV of deal wins to move back to US$300 mn

range, down from US$500 mn in the previous quarter. We expect investors to focus on

(1) demand outlook, especially for the telecom vertical mainly in light of recently

announced large deals, (2) health of the enterprise business, (3) deal pipeline, (4) 5G

opportunity, and (5) M&A strategy and capital allocation.

November 2018 GST revenues at Rs947 bn

Based on the monthly PIB release, total GST collection was at Rs947 bn in November, lower

than Rs976 bn in October (Exhibit 1). This was the second consecutive month of decline as well

from the peak in September. CGST collection amounted to Rs164 bn (October: Rs168 bn),

SGST was at Rs225 bn (Rs231 bn), IGST at Rs479 bn (Rs497 bn), and compensation cess was at

Rs79 bn (Rs80 bn). After allocations from the IGST, CGST for October was at Rs439 bn

(October: Rs351 bn) and SGST was Rs463 bn (October: Rs388 bn). We note that these numbers

are prior to refunds and the final numbers will be released at month-end by the CGA (cash-

accounting basis). The number of returns filed in November was at 7.24 mn against 6.96 mn in

October.

GST shortfall likely to be around Rs1 tn

Accounting for refunds, on a cash accounting basis, November collections would likely be

around Rs870 bn, implying a 9MFY19 run-rate of Rs896 bn (Exhibit 2). For 9MFY19, CGST

would be around Rs3.4 tn, unallocated IGST at Rs128 bn, and SGST around Rs3.8 tn. We note

that the required run-rate for the rest of FY2019 is now around Rs1.5 tn. In a more realistic

(though still optimistic) scenario of (1) 1-5% mom increase in rest of FY2019, (2) higher IGST

allocation to the center and (3) distribution of unallocated compensation cess equally between

center and states, the center’s shortfall would likely be around Rs1 tn.

Fiscal math: Expenditure cuts inevitable if budgeted fiscal deficit target is sacrosanct

We continue to believe that expenditure cuts are inevitable if the government is to stick to its

budgeted GFD/GDP of 3.3% in FY2019. For 8MFY19, the fiscal deficit is already at 114.8% of

its budgeted target. Net tax receipts in 8MFY19 were Rs7.32 tn against a full-year target of

Rs14.8 tn (49.4% of the budgeted target), while total spending stood at Rs16.1 tn against the

full-year target of Rs24.4 tn (66% of budgeted target) (Exhibits 3 and 4). This implies that while

the expenditure remained on course, subdued tax receipts were responsible for pushing up the

deficit. There are limited chances of exceeding the divestment target with the government

garnering Rs338 bn till December 1, 2018; below its target of Rs800 bn. We maintain our

FY2019 GFD/GDP estimate at 3.5% including expenditure cuts in 4QFY19. This will also weigh

on GDP growth in 2HFY19, which is likely to be around 6.6% after 7.6% in 1HFY19.

Limited space for immediate direct budgetary support to rural sector

There have been a fair number of discussions with regards to the rural distress issue; particularly

farm distress stemming from inadequate income/profit generation. While measures such as

farm loan waivers, direct investment supports, tweaks to crop insurance schemes, further

interest subvention for crop loans, etc. remain on the card, the budgetary cost will be high. For

example, based on Agricultural Census, 2011 data (Exhibit 5) assuming Rs2,500/ha/year of

direct investment, the cost to the exchequer will be around Rs270 bn. However, most of these

schemes are usually staggered in their payouts and have a significant lag in their effects and,

hence, may not immediately alleviate the farm distress situation.

Economy Public Finance

Expenditure cuts imminent in 4QFY19. With GST revenues continuing to remain well

below budgeted targets, it will be difficult for the central government to meet its

GFD/GDP target of 3.3% without expenditure cuts. With the monthly GST run rate

remaining at around Rs896 bn for 9MFY19 and a likely shortfall of around Rs1 tn, we

maintain our GFD/GDP estimate at 3.5% including expenditure cuts in 4QFY19.
