Not a business-as-usual quarter; provisions high on account of loan waiver

Earnings growth for HDFC Bank was healthy at 20% yoy as strong revenue growth (22% yoy)

coupled with lower cost growth (13% yoy) led to 29% yoy PPoP growth. However, there were

a few one-off performances: (1) provisions was higher at ~80% yoy due to the impact of

slippages on account of loan waiver and coverage ratio still slipped to 65% from ~69% in the

previous quarter, (2) non-interest income growth was strong at 25% yoy on the back of high

fee income of 30%, which included a few one-off income on fees from oil marketing

companies, and (3) operating expenses growth was at the slowest in recent quarters at 13%

yoy. Loan growth was strong at 22% yoy, led by 17% yoy retail growth and 30% yoy non-

retail growth. CASA flows remained strong at ~30 yoy. NIM improved 10 bps qoq to 4.4%.

Risk on book increasing; going deeper into rural India does expose to such risks as seen today

As highlighted in the past few quarters, we are still of the opinion that the riskiness of the book

has only been on the rise and it is not fully reflected as the underlying margins are moving in a

relatively tight band despite the (1) share of unsecured loans being closer to peak levels that we

last saw in FY2008, (2) rise in relatively higher-yielding business banking portfolio, and (3) CASA

ratio is at levels last seen in FY2012. The bank reported high NPLs in its agriculture loan portfolio;

while loan waiver has been the primary cause, it does raise an important question on the nature

of the business today as compared to what it was a decade ago. The high slippage in the

current quarter probably shows that it is getting harder to pick and choose loans as size of the

balance sheet is becoming an issue. The bank is getting exposed to the vagaries in the economy

with a lot more consistency.

Maintain REDUCE with TP of `1,575 (from `1,450 earlier)

We maintain our REDUCE rating post changes to earnings. We value the bank at ₹1,575 (from

`1,450 earlier), which implies 3.3X book and 19X 1QFY20E EPS delivering 18% earnings CAGR

for FY2018-20E and RoEs in the range of 18%. Valuation remains our key concern as our broad

thesis remains intact, as we see the bank compounding remains unaffected. HDFC Bank will

remain a frontrunner in capturing the fast-growing retail opportunity given its strong execution

track-record of building a strong retail network underpinned by a stable liability profile, which

provides comfort on growth and profitability.

HDFC Bank (HDFCB) Banks

Not one of the best quarters. HDFC Bank reported 20% yoy earnings growth on the

back of 30% yoy PPoP growth. However, one-off non-interest income and operating

leverage offset the high provisions on account of lagged impact of loan waiver. Share

of unsecured loans continues to rise and is closer to peak levels. High market share in

select products and low growth for the industry resulting in high competition in retail

remain the key risk. Maintain REDUCE with TP at `1,575 (from `1,450 earlier).

Strong comeback on retail loan growth

HDFC Bank reported 23% yoy loan growth, driven by 17% yoy retail loan growth and 30%

yoy non-retail loan growth as per RBI classification and 29% yoy in retail and 13% yoy in

corporate loans as per internal classification. Retail loan growth was better than the 4QFY17

quarter, which had the spillover impact of demonetization. Share of retail loan increased

~100 bps qoq to 52% driven primarily by growth in business banking at 58% yoy, personal

loans at 37% yoy and credit cards at 37% yoy. The qoq non-retail growth slowed down to

2.7%.

Unsecured loan growth remains high, contributing to 28% of retail loans

In line with trends over few quarters, unsecured loans remained the mainstay of retail loan

growth. Personal loan and credit card loans together grew 37% yoy and 11% qoq, with

growth equally split between personal loan (37% yoy, 11% qoq) and credit cards (37% yoy,

12% qoq). Contribution of unsecured retail loans has grown to ~28% from ~22% in FY2014.

With strong support from low cost funding and yield pressure emerging in the system

elsewhere, the bank has been aggressive in growing the unsecured book, thus providing

support to the overall margins. Given the strength of the retail balance sheets at the

moment, the current level of strong growth does not raise any red-flags at the moment.

Home loan growth slowed down to 16% (vs 21% in 4QFY17). Car loan growth increased

further to to 27% (24% in 4QFY17), CV/CE dropped marginally to 29% (vs 31% yoy in

4QFY17) and business banking loans further jumped to 58% yoy (43% in 4QFY17) while

two-wheeler growth was stable at 18% (17% in 4QFY17).

HDFC Bank has grown at ~20% yoy in the past four quarters, well above the industry loan

growth of below 5-7%. The bank has indicated in the past that that they intend to grow at

3-6 percent points above the system loan growth and the excess growth over this alpha may

taper down. The bank does not explicitly target any share for retail, but the relative

slowdown in corporate have led to increase in share of retail loans.

We are not too sure if the bank would be able to improve loan growth >25% in the

medium term considering that the underlying business environment continues to remain

challenging which implies near term loan growth would be subdued for the industry and the

bank is expected to grow at a premium to industry average.

Exhibit 5: Proportion of retail loans inched up in 1QFY18; share of unsecured loans have increased over the past few years Break-up of loan book, March fiscal year-ends, 2005-1QFY18 (%)

Source: Company, Kotak Institutional Equities

Asset quality shows weakness; coverage ratio declines qoq to 65%

Gross NPL and net NPL ratios showed an increase qoq at 1.2% and 0.4% of loans

respectively. Absolute qoq growth in GNPL and NNPL was steep at 23% and 37%

respectively. Despite the bank making higher provisions, the provision coverage was lower

~360 bps qoq to 65%. Credit cost in the quarter was higher qoq as the bank had made

higher provisions on account of higher impairment in the agriculture loan portfolio, which

was impacted due to demonetization. The management highlighted that the rest of the

portfolio is not showing any signs of higher levels of deterioration. The unsecured loan

portfolio is showing lower delinquency than that of the secured portfolio. We forecast

1.1%-1.2% gross NPL ratio over next two years with credit costs of ~70-90 bps.

Exhibit 6: Provision coverage stable qoq at 70% Break-up of provisions made during a year, March fiscal year-ends, 2010-17 (` mn)

Notes: (a) Comparison with earlier years will be incorrect as FY2013 has seen a change in reporting where income from written-off loans have been shifted to non-interest income from the earlier practice of netting with provisions. FY2012 numbers restated as per the change in accounting policy.

Source: Company, Kotak Institutional Equities

Calculated NIM flat qoq at 4.5%; growth in unsecured loans could not offset

drop in yield on investment

Calculated NIM remained flat qoq at 4.5% on the back of higher CD ratio (up ~30 bps qoq

to 87%). Yield on loans declined ~10 bps qoq to 10.2% with investment yields dropping

significantly ~60 bps qoq to 6.7%. The base rate was cut by 25 bps from 9.25% to 9% in

April 2017 accompanied by cut in MCLR rates since January 2017. Margins are probably

stable and on the higher side because of the sharp drop in lending yields accompanied by a

rise in the share of low cost deposits.

We would be cautious at the bank’s NIM as we believe that we are currently at peak lending

spreads in the business and the high competition and shift to corporate loans would make it

challenging to expand NIM from current levels. We expect NII CAGR of ~13% in FY2018-

20E and expect it to lag ~16% loan CAGR. We forecast NIM (calculated) to decline by ~35

bps over FY2018-20E.

Core fee growth of 30% yoy

Non-interest income growth of 25% yoy was lower than fee income growth of 30% yoy on

due to muted growth in treasury income at 20% yoy compared to 56% yoy in 4QFY17. The

bank had seen one off income from fees on prior items relating oil marketing companies.

The impact on growth would be 400-500bps on account of the same. Also, higher

distribution of third party products has resulted in strong growth as well. Notably, bank has

tied up with two more life insurance companies (apart from HDFC Life) and one general

insurance company. We see this as an opportunity for the bank to earn higher fees on sale

of third-party products.

Cost growth at 14% yoy, ~50 bps improvement in cost-income ratio

Cost-income ratio improved marginally by 12 bps qoq to 42% as operating costs growth

was controlled at 13% yoy, lower than 22% revenue growth. Ongoing staff efficiency

program led to savings with staff strength stable qoq for the bank, leading to 5% yoy

growth in staff costs. Bank has seen headcount reduction of nearly 10,000 staff in 3QFY17,

4QFY17 and flattish for the current quarter. This has resulted from the bank’s initiatives on

digital over the past few years giving an opportunity to rebalance staff levels as well as

improve productivity levels.

Non-staff cost growth was higher at 17% due to high loan growth as well as branch

additions – 195 in FY2017 of which 160 had happened in 4QFY17.

CASA ratio drops to 44%; growth of 29% yoy and 4.5% decrease qoq

Overall deposit growth was 17% yoy with CASA balances growing by 29% yoy but

dropping 4.5% qoq attributed to 12% qoq drop in current accounts and flat savings

account. Yoy drop in term deposit during 4QFY17 reflecting redemption of US$3 bn FCNR

deposits leading to slow growth of 8% yoy in term deposits, jumped back to 9% yoy

growth and 13% qoq growth.

Others key highlights

Tier-1 ratio stands comfortable at 13.6% with overall CAR at 15.6% as per Basel-3

guidelines.

Higher volumes and improved realizations aid strong earnings for the quarter

Ambuja Cements’ earnings were higher than our estimate—the company reported standalone

revenues of `28 bn (12% yoy, 11% qoq), EBITDA of `6 bn (6% yoy, 68% qoq) and net income

of `3.9 bn (-13% yoy, 59% qoq), against our estimate of `27 bn, `5.4 bn and `3.5 bn,

respectively. Higher-than-expected volumes of 6.1 mn tons (5% yoy, flat qoq) and 11% qoq

increase in realizations to `4,670/ton (6% yoy, KIE: `4,590/ton) aided earnings outperformance.

EBITDA/ton increased to `1,013/ton (1% yoy, 67% qoq) as cost increases were contained to

1% qoq to `3,650/ton (8% yoy). ACEM’s fuel costs increased by 4% qoq to `933/ton (15%

yoy) due to increase in pet-coke prices—note that pet-coke usage is high in the fuel mix for

ACEM (62% in CY2016). Cost increases were contained led by a decline in other costs such as

freight (-1% qoq to `1,220/ton). The 13% yoy decline in net income (`3.9 bn, 59% qoq)

reflects higher other income in 2QCY16 as the company accounted for dividend received from

ACC last year.

Sharp increase in realizations reflect price increases by companies since April 2017

ACEM’s realizations increased by `460/ton qoq to `4,670/ton—the highest among peers

(~`30/bag qoq). We believe the sharp increase in the company’s realizations is due to its higher

sales in the West region (~40%). As per our channel checks, all-India prices increased by

`28/bag qoq, but in the West it was the highest (`42/bag qoq). Prices in the North and East

regions increased by `23-26/bag qoq. However, the partial roll-back of prices in July 2017

(-`4/bag qoq on all-India basis) may yield a less promising performance in 3QCY17.

Maintain REDUCE with revised TP of `250 noting full valuations

At 11X EV/EBITDA (attributable) on June 2019 earnings, even after factoring in EBITDA growth

of 26% CAGR (10% growth in CY2016) and 1% in EBITDA in 1HCY17, we retain our REDUCE

rating with a revised target price of `250/share (from `230 previously) based on 10X EBITDA—

increase in TP is led by rollover to June 2019E financials (from March 2019E). We raise our

earnings estimate by 1-5% for CY2017-19E. We estimate EPS of `7.8, `11.4 and `14.5 for

CY2017E, CY2018E and CY2019E. The stock trades at 35X/24X CY2017/18E earnings.

Ambuja Cements (ACEM) Cement

A balanced performance. Ambuja Cement’s standalone EBITDA increased 6% yoy to

`6 bn (68% qoq), 14% ahead of our estimate. Strong volumes (5% yoy to 6.1 mn tons)

and 6% yoy increase in blended realizations aided earnings—the company reported the

highest sequential increase in realization among peers due to its large presence in West

and North regions. ACEM remains relatively better positioned, though valuation at 11X

EV/EBITDA offers no upside. Maintain REDUCE rating with revised target price of

`250/share (from `230/share previously).

Changes in our estimates

Exhibit 5 highlights key changes in our estimates.

Ambuja standalone. We raise our volume estimate by 1-2% to 22.6 mn tons, 24.3 mn

tons and 26.1 mn tons for CY2017E, CY2018E and CY2019E. We cut our realization

assumption by 2% and tweak our cost assumptions—our EBITDA/ton changes marginally

by (1)-1% for CY2017-19E. Our consolidated EBITDA increased by 1-2% to `20.6 bn,

`27.5 bn and `31.3 bn for CY2017E, CY2018E and CY2019E. We also tweak our interest

and depreciation estimates. We estimate standalone EPS of `6.3, `8.8 and `10.6 for

CY2017E, CY2018E and CY2019E.

Ambuja consolidated. The above revision combined with our earlier change in ACC’s

numbers results in 0-1% change in Ambuja’s consolidated EBITDA estimate for CY2017-

19E. We estimate consolidated EBITDA of `37 bn, `49.8 bn and `60.8 bn for CY2017E,

CY2018E and CY2019E. We estimate consolidated EPS of `7.8, `11.4 and `14.5 for

CY2017E, CY2018E and CY2019E.

Key highlights from 2QCY17 results

Volumes—ACEM’s cement volumes increased by 5% yoy to 6.05 mn tons in 2QCY17

and compares less favorably to 10% yoy volume growth reported by ACC, though it was

better than 1% yoy decline for Ultratech. On a consolidated basis volumes increased 8%

yoy to 12.8 mn tons.

Realizations—ACEM’s standalone realizations increased by 11% qoq (+`30/bag) to

`4,670/ton (6% yoy), 2% ahead of our estimates. The company has large exposure to

north and west markets and the recent price increases in these markets (by `26-42/bag

qoq in 2QCY17) aided earnings.

Profitability and costs—ACEM’s EBITDA/ton increased 1% yoy at `1,013/ton (67%

qoq) in 2QCY17 aided by higher realizations and contained costs. Operating cost per ton

increased 1% qoq to `3,650/ton (8% yoy) due to higher pet-coke costs while freight and

raw material costs declined (on per ton basis). The company has targeted 65-70% of fuel

mix from pet-coke/domestic coal, 20-25% from captive coal block (Gare Palma) and the

balance from alternative fuels.

Consolidated earnings—Ambuja’s consolidated EBITDA increased 11% yoy to `11.4 bn

(56% qoq) aided by strong volume performance (12.8 mn tons, 8% yoy) at subsidiary

ACC as well as parent entity. The consolidated EBITDA/ton increased 54% qoq to

`889/ton (3% yoy) aided by 8% qoq increase in blended realizations to `4,809/ton (7%

yoy). The consolidated net income increased 7% yoy to `5.5 bn (90% qoq).

The company declared interim dividend of `1.60/share.

Highway ban, GST impact on margins, Street’s misconception on royalty income upside

We present our quick thoughts on some of the key aspects of UNSP’s investment thesis:

Highway ban – implemented from April 1, 2017 in select states, this has already impacted

volumes and revenues in 1QFY18. More states implement this from July 1, 2017 even as de-

notification of highways within city limits should lead to some moderation in impact going

ahead. Overall, we see this as a temporary dislocation the impact of which should start

receding in a couple of quarters. Impact receding does not mean upside though, to be clear,

unless one had assumed this to be a structural headwind; we had not.

GST impact on margins – without quantifying the impact of increase in input taxation and

the ‘stranded tax’ nature of the same given alcohol’s non-inclusion in GST, the company

suggested that it might take 2-3 years to completely recoup GST’s negative impact on

margins. More importantly, the company also indicated that this margin recovery

would need price increases in addition to internal efficiency drive. The nub of this

management commentary is not in the mathematics of it. It is in what it says about the

structural nature of the business – assuming price increases as a source of margin expansion

is risky. Price increase demands from the industry are generally cost-push (tax increase/ input

cost inflation) based and to that extent, assuming that the price increases would deliver net

retention beyond covering for cost push is risky.

Royalty income as a source of massive future EBITDA upside – a big misconception.

Of late, we have seen a section of the Street call out royalty income as a source of massive

incremental EBITDA for UNSP. We note that UNSP franchised out annualized popular

segment volumes of 10 mn cases recently; management indicated total royalty income to be

in the range of Rs1.4-1.6 bn in FY2018E. Most importantly, our discussions with the

company suggest that royalty arrangements are largely fixed fee ones with marginal annual

escalation (1-6%); this structure is locked for five years. UNSP would not participate in any

sales/profitability upside from the franchised portfolio, in other words, even if the franchisee

is able to deliver a meaningful turnaround on the franchised portfolio’s economics.

United Spirits (UNSP) Consumer Products

Of temporary dislocations, long-term risk/reward and misconceptions. Volume

impact of highway ban that impacted 1QFY18 earnings print can be seen as a

temporary dislocation. Mitigation of GST’s impact on margins will need price increases

and highlights the futility of assuming price increases as a source of margin expansion.

Execution-led margin expansion and sustained mix improvement are the only two long-

term positives we see; these can be played at the right entry price; CMP is not. Lastly,

we would advise guarding against the misconceived notions (of a section of the Street)

on royalty income being a source of massive upside; it is not. REDUCE.

Key changes to our earnings model

We have cut our EPS estimates for FY2018-20 by 8-15% (higher in FY2018) as we bake in

lower-than-expected franchise income and GST impact (this could change as clarity emerges,

for now we bake in 100 bps impact on GM level). Our target price stays at Rs2,400 however

as valuation rollover by a quarter to June 2019 mitigates the impact of earnings cuts. REDUCE.

Exhibit 1: Key changes to standalone earnings model, UNSP, March fiscal year-ends, FY2018-20E (Rs mn)

Source: Company, Kotak Institutional Equities estimates

Discussion on quarterly performance and highlights from concall

1QFY18 results print – weak, as expected. Gross revenues down 1% yoy to Rs58.2 bn

(4% above our estimates), net operating revenues down 13% yoy to Rs17.8 bn (in line

with our estimates), EBITDA down 26% yoy to Rs1.57 bn (15% below our estimates) and

recurring PAT down 23% yoy to Rs637 mn (9% above our estimates). Net operating

revenue was dragged by destocking impact due to highway liquor ban, one-off operating

model changes (franchising model) and 420 bps yoy jump in excise (as % of gross

revenues); excluding one-off operating model changes net sales declined 7% yoy (lower

at 3-4% adjusted further for destocking impact). Lower-than-expected depreciation

(down 23% qoq), sharp fall in interest costs (down 32% yoy), robust growth in other

income (up 28% yoy) and lower-than-expected ETR aided modest beat in recurring PAT

despite a miss at EBITDA level.

EBITDA margin contracted 160 bps yoy to 8.8%, despite robust 265 bps yoy expansion to

46%, dragged by weak operating leverage – we note staff costs included one-off impact

of Rs130 mn – adjusted for same underlying EBITDA declined 20% yoy. Aggressive cost

rationalization kept absolute cost under control – staff costs was down 8% yoy, A&SP

was down 3% yoy and other expenditure increased 3% yoy. GM improvement was

driven by price hikes, productivity improvement and operating model changes – we note

underlying GM improvement was 116 bps yoy (adjusted for optical gain from operating

model changes).

Reported volumes down 19% yoy (underlying volumes down 10% yoy). Overall

volumes declined 19% yoy (marginally better versus our estimate of 22% yoy decline);

we note the reported quarterly volume performance was dragged by – (1) lower

consumption and destocking impact due to implementation of highway liquor ban

effective April 1, 2017 and (2) one-off impact of operating model changes (franchising

model in popular segment) – adjusted for operating model changes volumes declined

10% yoy. P&A segment volume were down 10% yoy and popular segment volume

declined 26% yoy (partly dragged by company franchising out its popular segment

brands in several markets).

Segment-wise takeaways. Prestige segment posted 8% yoy decline in revenues

(dragged by ~10% volume decline and 2% price/mix-led growth) and now represents

61% of the overall business in terms of sales and 47% in terms of volumes. Within P&A

brands – (1) McDowell’s No1 whisky variant (excluding Platinum) declined net sales by

1% yoy, (2) Royal Challenge net sales declined 11%, (3) Signature continued to show

positive momentum and grew net sales by 14%, (4) scotch portfolio in the premium and

luxury segment net sales declined 24% yoy. The popular segment posted 20% yoy

decline in revenues (dragged by 26% yoy volume decline and 6% price/mix-led growth)

and now represents 36% of total net sales and 53% of total volumes. Popular segment

was largely dragged by operating model changes – underlying net sales declined 8% yoy

(dragged by 12% volume decline). Priority states posted 7% yoy decline in sales.

Other takeaways. (1) The management highlighted that it expects the impact of

highway ban to continue in 2QFY18 and 3QFY18, however to a lesser extent. With recent

SC ruling allowing states to denotify particular stretches of highways within city limits, it

is seeing early signs of recovery and (2) on GST, the management highlighted that it will

result into additional taxes on input materials and services which will impact margins. The

company is still working with state governments to seek clarity on certain state

specific taxes and is also approaching them for price hikes. Overall, it expects to mitigate

GST impact fully over next 2-3 years.

Sharp jump in other expenses and decline in volumes impact profitability

Ashok Leyland reported 1QFY18 EBITDA of `3.1 bn (-35% yoy), which was 15% below our

estimates due to higher-than-expected other expenses. Revenues were flat yoy despite 9% yoy

decline in volume growth offset by 9% yoy increase in net realizations. The company reported

EBITDA margin of 7.2% (KIE: 8.7%). Gross margin declined by 60 bps yoy (KIE down 120 bps

yoy) due to higher commodity prices. Other expenses increased by 12% yoy despite flat yoy

growth in revenues led by higher marketing costs and costs related to global conference. PBT

came in at `1.76 bn (-52% yoy), which was 19% lower than our estimates. The company also

reported exceptional expenses of `152 mn related to mark-to-market impact on interest and

currency swaps and impairment loss on the loans of subsidiaries.

Tough FY2018 for MHCV industry but AL likely to regain market share

We expect 1HFY18 to be a challenging year for the MHCV industry with possible recovery in

2HFY18 (which will also depend on effect of GST implementation in the economy). But we are

quite impressed with AL’s strategy to focus on growing each segment of its business – domestic

MHCV, LCV, defense, exports and spare parts business. The company plans to increase exports

to 33% of its revenues from only 10% currently. The company has also shown good progress

in focusing on the spare part business. Spare part revenues were up 34% yoy in 1QFY18

despite decline in volumes, which shows management commitment to increase share of its

business in the aftermarket segment. The company has also increased warranty period by 2.7X

to give a strong communication to its customers about the quality of its products.

We maintain ADD rating on the stock with a revised target price of `110 (from ` 100 earlier) as

we raise our FY2019/20E EBITDA estimates by 1-5% (we have cut our FY2018E EPS estimates

by 8% on lower EBITDA margin assumptions due to lower volume estimates) and increase our

multiple to 17X on June 2019E EPS from 16X on March 2019E EPS earlier.

Ashok Leyland (AL) Automobiles

Weak quarter; management ups the ante. Ashok Leyland reported a weak quarter

with PBT declining by 52% yoy in 1QFY18 led by decline in volumes due to weak

industry demand and pressure on margins. The company has increased warranty period

on its engines with i-EGR technology to 48 months from 18 months, which is a strong

signal to the customers about the confidence management has on i-EGR technology.

Maintain ADD rating with revised target price of `110 (from `100 earlier).

Key takeaways from the conference call

Company expects domestic MHCV industry to grow by 10-15% yoy in FY2018 while we

expect a flat yoy growth. 1HFY18 will be very challenging as economy and truck

operators figure out the GST puzzle, which will require changes in the way they operate.

Dealer inventory level is comfortable at ~10 days. Factory level inventory is ~9,000 units.

Company has gained 360 bps yoy market share in 1QFY18 in domestic MHCV industry.

Company indicated that they have gained market share across segments and across

regions. I-EGR technology has been well-received by customers and company has

increased the warranty period from 18 months to 48 months to show its faith in i-EGR

technology. Company has also done 1,500 sessions across India to educate customers

about i-EGR technology.

Company will increase prices by 1% in August to offset increase in input costs. Discounts

reduced sequentially in 1QFY18.

Export volumes grew by 55% yoy in 1QFY18 as company penetrated into new markets in

Ukraine, Ivory Coast. Company expects export volumes to grow by 25% yoy in FY2018.

Spare part revenues grew by 34% yoy in 1QFY18. Power engine genset revenues were

flat yoy in 1QFY18.

Company has aggressive new launch pipeline in the LCV segment and expects to gain

market share with these launches. Gross margin for the LCV business is around 25-27%

but expenses are higher currently due to lower volumes and presence of multiple entities.

Over the medium term, the company expects profitability of LCV business to be in line or

better than MHCV business.

Company also indicated that Hinduja Leyland foundry, which was merged in Ashok

Leyland, had a slight negative EBITDA in 1QFY18. Hinduja Leyland finance is also doing

well with loan book growth of 40% yoy in FY2018. Hinduja Leyland finance book size is

`140 bn at end of March 2017; around 50% of this is financing for Ashok Leyland’s

vehicles while rest are disbursements to other auto segments and housing sector.

Company has won 19 defense contracts in the defense vehicle program. The defense

business could scale up multifold from current `5 bn revenue over the next five years but

the scale-up is difficult to predict given uncertainties surrounding defense orders.

Exports is a key focus area for the company and company is launching several products

like Falcon, Oyster bus, Boss, Partner, LCVs and setting up assembly plants in Kenya,

Bangladesh, Ivory Coast, which will help them expand their addressable base.

Management indicated that the size of export markets they are present in is 500,000-

600,000 units annually while they sell only 12,000 units currently. Company expects

exports to become 33% of its overall revenues by FY2020 while we build in exports to

form 12% of company’s revenues by FY2020.

The company maintained its capex plus investment guidance of `5 bn in FY2018.

Weak earnings, directionally on the right track

MMFS reported PAT of ₹474 mn, down 46% yoy. This was largely due to high provisions—the

company chose to make extra provisions of ₹847 mn during the quarter. PBT before provisions

was up 36% yoy. Even after excluding the aforesaid extra provisions, PBT was up 10% yoy.

With these provisions, MMFS has effectively reversed its recently revised provisioning policy on

aged NPLs.

Provisions tightened again

In 1QFY17, MMFS had revised its provisioning policy to consider the estimated value of the

underlying security to determine 100% provisioning cover for NPLs over 24 months. This

resulted in reduction in provisions of ₹1.92 bn in 9MFY17. However, the company made extra

provisions of ₹1.05 bn in 4QFY17 and ₹840 mn in the current quarter. With this, MMFS has

effectively reversed the policy change made in 1QFY17. This may be likely prompted by lower

recoveries during the stress period of demonetization.

GNPL rise slows down

MMFS’s underlying business trends seem to be improving likely due to better cash flows since

Feb-March 2017 and expectations of a normal monsoon that is sentimentally positive. Current

progress of monsoon seems to be broadly on track. Seasonal trends suggest that GNPLs

increase qoq between 4Q and 1Q. During 1QFY18, GNPLs were up 20% qoq; this was notably

the lowest qoq rise in 1Q since FY2011.

Operating trends stable

MMFS maintained its growth trajectory. Value of asset financed was up 16% as compared to

19% in FY2017; loans under management were up 14% yoy to ₹476 bn. The broad business

mix has remained stable qoq and yoy—28% of loans were UVs (M&M business), 21% were

tractors and 21% were cars.

Lower reversals led to better NIM; calculated NIM were 8% as compared to 7.3% in 1QFY17

and 10.5% in 4QFY17; this was also supported by reduction in borrowing costs; calculated

borrowing costs were 8.2% versus 8.9% in 1QFY17.

Mahindra & Mahindra Financial (MMFS) NBFCs

High provisions dent earnings; undercurrents improve. Mahindra Finance (MMFS)

reported 10% yoy growth in PBT before extraordinary provisions driven by 14% loan

growth, marginal NIM expansion, largely on the back of control over qoq GNPL rise.

Despite a normal monsoon, likely better farm cash flows and a positive commentary,

MMFS made extra provisions to reverse the impact of provisioning policy change in

FY2017. We will revisit our estimates and target price post Tuesday’s conference call.

A combination of higher capital, strong quarter for capital markets and high agency growth

IIFL Holdings had a strong 1QFY18. The company benefitted from strong momentum in

capital markets leading to 35-55% growth in market volumes and bunching of investment

banking fees for the current and previous quarters, leading to massive (about 5X growth) in

capital market-related earnings, though on a low base (5% of segmental PBT in 1QFY17;

17% in 1QFY18).

IIFL Finance continues to make a migration to lower-ticket loans in affordable housing and

inch up the microfinance business, which we believe will boost medium-term profitability,

while consciously slowing down developer loans and LAP. Loan growth momentum (26%

yoy though up just 5% qoq) even as higher NIM post reduction in borrowing cost and recent

capital infusion boosted earnings.

Wealth business reported 41% growth in fees, on the back of high secular growth in the

business but also partially explained high AIF mobilization during the period and was

supplemented by increase in funded income (post recent capital issuance).

Strong medium-term momentum priced in

We continue to expect IIFL Holdings to deliver strong medium-term business momentum by a

combination of (1) growth in new lending segments like affordable housing and microfinance,

(2) secular growth in wealth management as IIFL invests in adding capacities and (3) good times

for capital markets. This will likely translate into 20-21% earnings CAGR (about 18% post

minority interest) and RoE 22-23% over the next three years.

IIFL Holdings has outperformed the market by 100% in last one year. While buoyancy around

capital markets may be a key reason, we would like to highlight that, unlike 2007-08, the

lending business currently drives 50% of its value and has no linkages with capital markets.

We would juxtapose this stock with other NBFCs on price-to-book versus RoE matrix rather than

valuing the business on a PE basis. At our SoTP-based target price (September 2019, rolled over

from March 2019) of ₹510, IIFL will trade at 2.7X book.

Volatility in capital markets and rise in NPLs in low-cost housing pose key risks.

IIFL Holdings (IIFL) NBFCs

In a sweet spot. A strong quarter for the broking business, large income in investment

banking, high wealth management income and moderate loan growth have driven

60% PBT growth for IIFL Holdings, in line with estimates. With steady growth trajectory

in the NBFC business, wealth income and good times for capital markets, we expect IIFL

to deliver 22-23% medium-term RoE and 18% earnings CAGR during FY2017-19,

though fully priced in at 3.3X FY2019E book. Retain REDUCE; TP ₹510 (from ₹450).

IIFL Wealth: Continues to deliver strong growth

Strong agency business performance. IIFL Wealth reported PAT of `864 mn, up 64%

yoy. Reported income from distribution (i.e. non-fund based) was up ~40% yoy to ₹1.8

bn. Sequentially, income growth was 2% qoq, compared to ~20% growth in ex-custody

assets under management.

AUM growth of 17% qoq. IIFL has reclassified the AUM disclosures, resulting in lower

comparable AUMs. AUM growth remains strong with `1.3 tn in 1QFY187 from `1.1 tn in

4QFY17 and `740 bn in 4QFY16; the company has partnership with more than 10,000

HNI families. Large share of AUM comes from investment distribution and investment

management.

Distribution has driven 54% of IIFL Wealth’s income. In FY2017, IIFL Wealth reported

net operational income (net of interest expenses) of ₹7.8 bn (Exhibit 5). Net interest

income was the largest avenue at 27% of total revenues. Income from distribution of

mutual funds comprised 20% of total income while income from distribution of other

products at 33% of total income.

Investing for growth. Operating costs increased 42% yoy, with ~50% yoy increase in

staff costs. Company continues to add staff – number of bankers increased to 253 from

195 at FY2016 and 139 at FY2015. Period-end AUM per RM has increased to ~`5 bn

from `4.8 bn qoq and `3.8 bn at FY2016. Non-staff expense growth was lower at 29%

yoy.

IIFL Wealth Finance. IIFL Wealth is 100% subsidiary of IIFL Wealth. Wealth’s target

segments are loan against shares/property to HNIs, already served by the IIFL Wealth

network. Loan book stands at ₹36 bn (+19% qoq) with calculated yield of ~17%. There

will be volatility in quarterly performance due to market volatility and IPO pipeline.

IIFL Finance: Lower cost of funds supporting retail push

~2.3-2.4% RoA in the medium term. We project ~22% AUM CAGR over FY2018-20E,

adjusted for transfer of capital market book to wealth subsidiary. As cost of fund

declines, IIFL will further shift focus to lower yielding retail home loans. Over the medium-

to-long term NIM will trend down due to decline in loan yields due to greater

competition. We expect IIFL Finance to deliver 2.3-2.4% RoA and ~15-16% RoE over

FY2018-20E.

Cost reduction offers maximum delta to improve RoAs. The current business mix has

resulted in cost-asset ratio of 2.8% as of FY2017 and shift towards greater share of retail

will lead to cost savings that will offset decline in NIM. We expect cost-assets ratio to

decline to 1.9-1.7% by FY2019-20E from 2.8% in FY2017.

26% adjusted AUM growth in 1QFY18. IIFL Finance reported AUM of `233 bn, up

~26% yoy and 5% qoq after excluding the capital market loan shifted to IIFL Wealth.

Growth is driven by home loans, construction finance, capital markets and CVs.

Focused on affordable segment. Retail home loan being the focus area going forward,

grew by 82% yoy and 12% qoq. IIFL is positioned at the lower end of the ticket size with

average ticket size of Rs2.2 mn. IIFL’s retail home loan dovetails into its construction

finance business, generating leads for retail home loans.

Slower growth in LAP. LAP grew slower at 9% yoy and -2% qoq due to higher focus

on home loans. Target segment is smaller ticket LAP in the range of `5 mn or micro LAP

of `1 mn tickets, largely spread across the country with yield of ~9.5-10%. We expect

~30% loan CAGR over FY2018-20, leading to ~70% share of total loans.

Higher GNPLs due to shift to 90-dpd and slippages in CV book. Total gross NPL was

up ~20 bps qoq at 2.0% and net NPL up ~35 bps at 0.9%. Higher NPL is on account of

shift to 90-dpd recognition policy and slippages in CV loan book.

Recruitment segment – some recovery, but not enough

Recruitment segment’s revenues increased by 11% yoy, led by 8% increase in unique

customers and 3% increase in realizations (in Ind-AS). Realization improvement is a positive,

especially after the -1.1%/0% change seen in 3Q/4QFY17, post the change in sales incentive

policy. However, overall revenue growth is still lackluster, meaningfully below the 19-20%

growth rates in FY2015-16. EBITDA margins for the segment continue to improve – they were

at 55% in 1QFY18 compared to 51% in 1QFY17. Overall, revenues from other segments

propped up the revenue growth; lower losses from 99acres led to 7% EBITDA outperformance.

Naukri – management remains confident of beating competition

Naukri’s traffic share has declined to 60%, from 70%+ earlier, on account of Indeed. While

Indeed has been present in India for the past 5-6 years, it has begun advertising recently, and

has hence taken away traffic share. Management mentioned that Indeed does not pose a major

competitive threat as it is primarily an aggregator and will find it difficult to ramp up in India

where a large competitor (Naukri) is already present. Further, Naukri is improving its products

such as Referral Hiring and Career Site Manager to make its products more useful to clients.

99acres – RERA implementation poses near-term growth challenges

99acres revenue growth at 13% yoy was better than expected, though the business continues

to face headwinds from RERA-related advertising uncertainty and lack of new launches.

Management mentioned that RERA impacted business mid-May onwards, and hence the full

impact may be felt in subsequent quarters.

Revise target price to ₹1,015; retain ADD

We cut FY2018-20E EPS estimates by 2-3% as we: (1) tone down Naukri’s revenue growth

from 13-14% earlier to 12-13%, and (2) project EBITDA loss for Jeevansathi in FY2018 versus a

small profit earlier to capture current operational trends. This results in a revision in our SoTP-

based target price to ₹1,015 (from ₹1,030). Retain ADD – while near-term headwinds persist,

we believe INFOE’s internet properties are well-positioned to capture future business uptick.

Info Edge (INFOE) Internet

Some hits, some misses. INFOE’s 1QFY18 revenues beat our estimate by 2.3% primarily

on account of better performance of 99acres and other verticals, even as Naukri revenues

marginally missed estimates. While Naukri realization growth at 2.9% yoy showed some

recovery after relatively subdued performance in 2HFY17, overall recruitment segment

growth at 11% yoy was muted due to weaker hiring trends. We revise our TP to ₹1,015

(from ₹1,030) as we bake in marginally weaker growth for Naukri.

We note that Naukri’s deferred revenue growth is trending down, from 17% in 1QFY17 to

14% in 1QFY18, signifying weakening IT recruitment market.

Exhibit 3: Overall deferred revenue growth at 18% in 1QFY18 Segmental deferred revenue trends, March fiscal year-ends

Recruitment segment – growth jitters

Management reiterated their focus on addition of new tools to help enterprise customers

in the CSM (Career Site Manager) and referral hiring products. This should help Naukri to

up-sell products, and also keep competition at bay.

There seems to be definite demand slowdown from IT companies, which is being

reflected in the weak revenue trajectory. Management mentioned that while the impact

of sales incentive change policy, which led to some deferral in revenues, is largely behind,

however, GST implementation and the associated uncertainty/paperwork for clients also

impacted growth.

Indeed has taken away traffic share from Naukri due to their focus on advertising over

the past few months. However, given Indeed is only a job aggregator, their model may

not meet success in India, as it did in the US, which was a large and fragmented market a

few years back. INFOE believes that Indeed’s Indian experience may be similar to

Australia, where the presence of a large incumbent (Seek) made it difficult for Indeed to

make sizeable impact.

Recruitment segment EBITDA margins remain buoyant at 55%. INFOE has begun

disclosing margins in Ind-AS terms, and hence we do not have a complete time-series of

the same.

99acres – macro environment remains tepid

99acres revenue growth at 13% yoy was better than expected, particularly in view of the

headwinds faced by the real estate sector. EBITDA loss declined from ₹170 mn in 1QFY17 to

₹71 mn in 1QFY18.

Management mentioned that revenue growth was decent as business momentum was

stable till mid-May. However, the second half of the month came under pressure as RERA

implementation began.

Overall, real estate market remains sluggish, primarily on account of RERA and the

accompanied uncertainty on advertising. Notably, Maharashtra was one of the first states

to pass RERA, post which revenues from the state have been hit. RERA has impacted:

(1) new project launches, as builders seek approvals, and (2) real estate advertising as

new rules on when a builder is allowed to advertise are not clear.

As RERA is passed by more states, it may impact 99acres, and hence revenue trajectory

for the business may remain volatile.

Overall losses for the business have declined primarily due to improved revenue

momentum, and reduced advertising spend due to lower competitive intensity.

Other takeaways

Shiksha’s business momentum is strong, and the business reported EBITDA of ₹20 mn in

1QFY18, versus loss of ₹38 mn in FY2017. Shiksha’s new products are driving upgrades

and renewals; although the business may take some time to turn profitable for a

sustained amount of time.

Jeevansathi growth momentum remains strong with 23% yoy revenue growth and

increase in rate of profile addition. However, due to higher investments in the business, it

reported an EBITDA loss in 1QFY18 versus a profit in 1QFY17 (details in Exhibit 2).

Construction – downhill post strong 1QFY18; uptick in ordering from FY2019

IRB reported a strong yoy uptick in construction revenues as four of the five projects leveraged

the S-curve of execution. EBITDA margin was also strong adjusted for the InvIT-related

expenses. IRB expects moderation on both these counts. While backlog provides good visibility,

it is skewed towards projects yet to start construction (~20% share)/get financial closure (~40%

share). GST-led increase in input charges would also take some sheen off IRB’s margin.

BOT: Modest traffic growth continues; weak links not turning around

IRB reported a sluggish 3-4% growth in traffic volumes for its yoy comparable projects. The key

laggard remained Ahmedabad-Vadodara (flat yoy over low base on loss of growth volumes to a

parallel upgraded state highway). IRB has put a ₹1.68 bn claim to NHAI on this count over Dec

2015-June 2017 or a material 30% of revenues booked over this period. Putting the severity of

traffic diversion differentially, the project debt increased by ₹8 bn qoq primary on shortfall

funding, in spite of its premium payments having been deferred. Traffic growth for the portfolio

would weaken in 2QFY18 (GST-led trade disruption) before growing on low base in 3QFY18.

InvIT has prepared IRB for a bout in ordering that may take time

With an improved debt to equity of 2:1 post the InvIT proceeds, board approval to sell the

Amritsar-Pathankot project and limited ₹13 bn or so of pending equity requirement, IRB is well-

placed to add to its BOT portfolio. Its focus on pure BOT projects, the pipeline of which is weak

in FY2018, has made IRB tone down its expectations to 300-400 kms of order wins in FY2018,

much lower than the 500-600 km made possible by the InvIT.

Marginally revise SoTP on weakness in traffic volumes

IRB reported a 33%/27%/38%/PAT yoy increase in consolidated revenues/EBITDA/PAT in

1QFY18 on strong construction revenues. We maintain our operational estimates and bake in

investments coming from InvIT. SoTP reduces on weak toll revenues in Agra-Etawah and

Ahmedabad-Vadodara projects.

IRB Infrastructure (IRB) Infrastructure

Less to cheer in FY2018. Beyond a strong construction print in 1QFY18, we find

limited triggers in FY2018 for IRB. Composition of backlog and weak BOT prospects

would weaken execution through 9MFY18. GST may take some sheen off margin.

Traffic growth has started on a weak note and July/August would also be weak. The

potential transfer of Amritsar-Pathankot to InvIT would happen at terms similar to the

earlier transfer. We marginally revise down our TP to ₹255 from ₹260 on weak toll

revenues for Ahmedabad-Vadodara and Agra-Etawah.

1QFY18 earnings call takeaways

Work on existing projects in full swing, new order pipeline of 300-400 km.

IRB reported a strong 44% jump in construction revenues in the quarter led by

accelerated execution on the five under-construction projects. Out of these, the

company expects to start tolling on Kaithal-Rajasthan-Haryana border project in a

month’s time and an ahead-of-schedule completion of Solapur-Yadeshi in 1-1.5

months. Agra-Etawah project is a six-laning project and has started tolling for the

existing 4 lanes at 75% rate of the 6-lane tariff. The remaining two projects, namely

Yadeshi-Aurangabad and Karwar-Kundapur projects are expected to be completed by

March 2019.

The company is also pressing ahead with financials closures for three new projects it

recently won in Rajasthan. The management has visibility on additional pipeline of

300-400 km of BOT projects to be tendered by NHAI and the company is prepared to

bid for them once they are put to bidding. The company has been evaluating HAM

projects as well and may bid for those when appropriate.

Resolution awaited for claims filed with NHAI. The company has filed compensation

claims with NHAI on key issues of tolling suspension during demonetization and

competing road for Ahmedabad-Vadodara expressway. On the first issue, the company

has not received an update from NHAI whether the compensation would be provided in

cash or by way of extension of tolling. On the second issue, the dispute will have to be

resolved between IRB, NHAI and Gujarat government as the upgradation of competing

road by the state government has hampered traffic flow on Ahmedabad-Vadodara

expressway. The company has suggested the government to start tolling on the

competing road at a premium to its own concession project, as an effective way of

regulating the flow. The company has filed claims of ₹1.7 bn with NHAI on this count.

Guidance remains unchanged, large equity commitments required.

Despite a strong growth in the construction segment in 1QFY18, the management

maintained the full-year segmental guidance at 10-15% topline growth. This indicates

an expectation of slowdown in execution in the coming 3 quarters (especially during

the monsoon season). The management expects margins to decline by 100-200 bps as

the firm anticipates increase in raw material prices on account of GST.

BOT projects are also likely to witness ~4-5% traffic growth and 3-4% tariff growth

(barring Mumbai-Pune that received 18% tariff revision as per the concession

agreement). The company will also have to contribute ~₹13 bn of equity over the next

3-4 years for the new projects (Agra-Etawah: ₹4 bn, Udaipur-Gujarat border: ₹3.5 bn,

Gulabpura-Chittorgarh: ₹3.1 bn and Kishangarh-Gulabpura: ₹2 bn).

InvIT expansion on the cards. The management has proposed to transfer Amritsar-

Pathankot project to the IRB InvIT that will be value accretive for the trust (if funded by

debt) as well as would help the company monetize existing asset and receive cash for

further investments. If approved by the board of InvIT by end-July, the transaction can be

completed in 3-4 months.

Other takeaways.

The cash flow distribution from InvIT will be recognized by the company with the lag

of a quarter. Accrual accounting is inappropriate for InvIT as unlike debt securities,

InvIT units do not provide fixed claim every quarter.

The full impact of InvIT will be visible in ‘other income’ from next quarter as it will

include (1) the quarterly distribution from InvIT to the unit holders (12% yield) and

(2) yield generated on the large cash quantum received from InvIT on transfer of IRB’s

six operational assets to the trust.

Exhibit 1: Strong growth in construction segment revenues, modest growth in BOT when adjusted for projects transferred to InvIT IRB (consolidated) - 1QFY18 - key numbers, March fiscal year-ends (Rs mn)

Notes:

(a) We have not shown growth comparisons for qoq as well as FY2018E-FY2017 periods as these numbers need to be restated by the company for

like-for-like comparison in light of transfer of six assets to InvIT in May-2017.

(b) 1QFY17 InvIT-adjusted numbers are our pro-forma estimates based on toll details of the InvIT-transferred projects and margin assumptions.

Pricing/promotions – little action in June; GST-led price cuts in several categories in July

Refer to Exhibits 3 and 4 for pricing and promotional activity respectively. Refer to Exhibit 5 for

GST-led price changes in July (not yet fully visible in stores).

Soaps/detergents. We saw little incremental activity in S&D in June barring 6% hike in

Godrej No1 soaps and promotional offer on Surf Excel Quickwash 500 gm SKU (free

detergent bar). However, post GST rollout several companies have cut price of soaps and

detergent bars due to reduction in effective tax rate (stocks aren’t yet visible in stores) –

(1) HUVR has cut prices of Pears and Dove by 25% (through extra grammage), Lifebuoy and

Lux by 13% (direct price reduction), (2) ITC has cut prices across its soap brands by 20-30%

and (3) HUVR has reduced prices of Rin and Surf Excel detergent bar (select SKUs) by 10-

14%.

Personal care items. (1) Hair oils – no incremental activity, promotional offer on Bajaj

ADHO and Dabur Almond/Vatika continue while Marico has withdrawn all promotional

offers on all its hair oils; post GST Emami has cut prices of 7 oils in 1 by 8% while we haven’t

yet noticed pricing activity from other players, (2) toothpaste – again no incremental offers;

however, post GST Colgate has cut price of CDC by 12% (more price hikes still rolling out in

the market and hence not yet visible).

Food/beverage items. (1) Biscuits – we did see incremental promotional activity from both

Britannia and Parle in select brands, (2) edible oils – promotional offers (extra grammage)

continue on select brands like Fortune (offering 1L free on 5L pack) and Riso (offering 2L free

on 5L pack); Marico isn’t running any promotional offer on Saffola, (3) dairy – Nestle has

hiked prices of its entire baby foods portfolio by 2-3% and (4) others – ITC is running

promotional offers on Aashirvaad whole wheat atta (offering freebies) and HUVR has cut

prices of Kissan Ketchup by 15% (in July, post GST implementation).

RM trends –agri-inputs mixed, oil-based inputs deflationary while paint inputs inch up

Refer to Exhibit 5 for detailed RM inflation impact.

Agri-inputs. Agri-inputs exhibited another month of mixed trends – select inputs like tea

(both domestic and Kenyan) inched up 3-4% mom, coffee Robusta inched up 3% mom and

milk powder witnessed 2% mom inflation; however, other key inputs like coffee Arabica

(down 5% mom), barley (down 5% mom) and sugar (down 2% mom) posted deflationary

trend. We note inflation in several key agri-inputs like wheat, barley and sugar has

come down materially over past six months (wheat and barley are down 15-20% and

sugar is up only 3% over past six months).

Oil commodities basket. Oil basket posted another month of broad-based deflationary

trend with most key inputs like crude oil (down 8% mom), palm oil (down 3% mom),

mentha oil (down 2% mom), several vegetable oils (down 3-8% mom) and LLP (down 3%

mom) witnessing drop in prices.

Month in review – June 2017: GST-led price cuts getting rolled out. KIE consumer

universe underperformed the broader markets over the past month delivering flattish

returns. RM trends have remained deflationary (similar trend over past few months)

across most inputs (barring tea and paint inputs). We saw little incremental activity in

June due to impending GST rollout; however, in July we have seen price cuts across

several categories including soaps, detergent bars, toothpaste and select hair oils (more

in pipeline, not yet visible in stores). Sector valuations remain rich at 35X FY2019E

earnings (38X, ex-ITC). We retain our ‘tread selectively’ stance. Preferred picks – ITC,

GSK-CH, BJCOR, BRIT and CLGT.

Other commodities. Among other commodities, several paint inputs continued to

witness inflation including formaldehyde (up 5% mom) and styrene (up 28% mom) while

inputs like LAB (down 3 % mom) and VAM (down 5% mom) witnessed deflationary

trend.

Who benefits? (1) fall in crude oil prices will help all FMCG companies as it will bring

down packaging costs (with a lag), (2) deflation in wheat, barley and sugar prices will give

some respite to food companies like Britannia, Nestle and GSK-CH, (3) fall in palm

oil/PFAD is likely to help soap companies like HUVR, GCPL and JYL, (4) fall in rice bran oil

is likely to benefit Marico, (5) fall in mentha oil will benefit Emami and (6) fall in LLP will

benefit all hair oil companies, while fall in copra will benefit Marico.

Who gets impacted? (1) Inflation in several paint inputs is likely to hurt paint companies;

however, we note INR appreciation and recent price hike of 3% effective May should

help limit inflation impact and (2) higher tea prices will hurt companies like TGBL and

HUVR.

Sector (KIE consumer universe) underperforms broader markets

Our overall consumer coverage underperformed the broader markets delivering flattish

return (3% ex-ITC) versus 4% absolute return for broader markets. Despite

underperformance, several stocks delivered double-digit return during the period with key

outperformers being JUBI (up 36% mom), UNSP (up 17%), BJCOR (up 16%) and TGBL (up

12%). Key underperformers were ITC (down 6%), CLGT (down 4%), Pidilite (down 2%) and

Varun Beverages (down 2%).

On a 12-month basis, sector performance was in line with the broader markets posting 16%

absolute return (16% ex-ITC) similar to broader markets. We retain our ‘tread selectively’

stance; preferred picks – ITC, GSK-CH, BJCOR, BRIT and CLGT.

New launches/relaunches

Hindustan Unilever has launched Citra skin care brand in India – it’s a specialist naturals

CEO Speak

Amit Jatia, Vice Chairman — Westlife Development

Comment on speculation that you are first preference for national operations for

McDonald’s? Can’t comment on this or what is happening with north and east

franchise – currently only focused on south and west.

Is McDonald’s going to remain a mass market brand? McDonald’s stores in India are

changing –there is big focus on bringing premium coffee to mass market. Overall, 180-

200 mn consumers come to McDonald’s in west and south. Another big change has

happened in January 2017 – have opened experience-of-the-future stores at Nariman

Point, Mumbai – it has a very premium feel including self-ordering kiosks, burger

customizations, table service, salad options, soups, whole-wheat wraps and breakfast.

New stores will be rolled out largely in this format. Also, a lot of work has been done on

the menu over last three years.

Specific growth areas under consideration? While McCafe is giving us results today,

experience-of-the-future stores will give us results tomorrow. Also, breakfast will emerge

as a big growth driver – want to be first QSR to own the breakfast space. Focus is on

essentially increasing the frequency of eating out – when Happy Price menu was

launched in Mumbai, frequency of eating jumped up 8-9X and SSSG almost doubled.

McCafe is another growth driver – currently there are 111 McCafe; volumes have gone

up 70-75% without advertising. Beverages remain a high margin business. Due to local

sourcing advantage, pricing in McCafe is 30% lower – this is driving frequency of eating.

Key competitive edge? Westlife is making bold moves into the future – to put

things in perspective Westlife is the only brand in QSR that has given positive

SSSG over last eight quarters. Focus is on retaining and building customer base.

Unlike other players of the industry which focused on building promotion,

Westlife focused on improving unit economics. In 2014, the company launched a

restaurant operating platform to bring cost structures back to what made

business sense.

Other newsflow

The FMCG industry witnessed a jump of 5.37% in overall sales volume in the first week

of July just after the implementation of the GST, compared to the week before June 15

this year, as per a research survey by market research firm Brickworks. The survey

captures both modern as well as general trade sales volume and was conducted among

2,262 retailers across Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Pune, Bangalore and

Ahmedabad. The top two growth categories were cereals and pulses which grew 9.2%,

and tea and coffee which reported higher sales of 5.7%. Both milk and milk-based

products and edible oils grew 3.7%, while chips and snacks grew 2.8%. However,

categories which declined were personal care products which showed volume sales

decline of 7.9% and soft drinks which had lower volumes of 7.8%, according to the

study. However many retailers offered huge discounts on the pre GST stock to liquidity

sales, the study added.

The noodles market has breached its pre-Maggi crisis level after a two-year hiatus, helped

by a slew of new launches and increased advertising push that mainly reiterated product

safety. The segment clocked Rs9.9 bn sales for the quarter ended June, a sharp recovery

from the Rs1.9 bn recorded in the corresponding quarter of 2015, as per media reports

citing data from market research firm Nielsen. Before the Maggi fiasco, the category had

quarterly sales of Rs9 bn. The market took two years, but has successfully touched its pre-

crisis level at around Rs40 bn. In terms of market share, Indo Nissin Foods holds 10%

market share through its brands Top Ramen and Cup Noodles while ITC’s market share

has grown to 22.5% from 15% two years ago. In certain markets, like south and Odisha,

YiPPee! enjoys a higher market share (37-38%).

Britannia has gone to court against its distributors in Kerala, accusing them of resorting to

unfair trade practices to extract higher margins in the first such instance post the GST

rollout. Kerala is among the top 10 markets for Britannia, especially in categories such as

cookies and creams. The All Kerala Distributors Association (AKDA) claimed an increase in

their cost of business after the implementation of GST for demanding a higher margin.

Britannia has filed multiple legal caveat petitions in nine district courts in Kerala. Business

has been disrupted by close to 70% distributors in the state, as per media reports citing

interaction with the company. As per the reports, the distributors under their association

unilaterally decided on up-charging (increasing their selling price to retailers) as a

condition to resume billing. They are demanding more than 1% increase in margins. The

distributors had stopped buying stocks from Britannia during June 20-30, ahead of the

GST rollout on July 1. The biscuits maker, on its part, has now stopped supplies to these

70% of distributors who were seeking higher margins.

Godrej Consumer Products (GCPL) has forayed into the Rs12 bn professional hair care

segment and aims to capture at least 10% of market share in the next two and a half

years. The company plans to roll out to the top 10 cities and will extend this next year to

the tier I and some tier II cities. By the end of the next year, it will be reaching around

15,000-16,000 salons in India. The hair care segment contributes around 13-14% of the

company's revenues in India and with the entry in the professional space, the company

expects it to account for 20% in the next three years. The company has 40 SKUs (stock

keeping units) in its professional hair care portfolio brand Godrej Professional, including

21 shades in hair color, color lock shampoos and conditioners and high-end serums.

GCPL is a strong player in the hair colour market in the non-professional segment with

brands like Expert, BBlunt, Nupur and Renew.

Coca-Cola has developed a new value-based proposition for price-conscious consumers in

aerated beverages. Targeted at the bottom segment of the market to compete with local

brands, the beverages will be among the cheapest for Coca-Cola across markets. It is

calling the product Kinley Flavors. The upcoming range of aerated drinks, called Kinley

Flavors, will be priced 35-40% cheaper than Coke, Sprite and Fanta and will be rolled out

in popular localized flavours such as lemon, jeera and orange. More than 200 so-called B

brands distributed in small geographic areas have flooded these markets at prices that are

almost half that charged by the MNCs. They now have a consolidated share of over 12%

of the Rs 220 bn packaged aerated drinks category, according to industry estimates. They

range from Bovonto in Tamil Nadu to Alwar-based Jayanti Cola, to Gujarat's Hajoori &

Sons, which sells Sosyo, Ginlim and Lemee. A slew of smaller names include Xalta cola

made by a Delhi-based company, City Cola by Rahul Beverages, and Campa Cola, a

brand that never quite died out. These new launches will be available in 250ml PET packs

at attractive price points. The company is doing pilots in select markets and will expand

over time. At the entry level, global soft drink brands in 200ml glass bottles are priced at

Rs12, while 250ml cans are priced at Rs25. Both Coca-Cola and PepsiCo have set up

specialized teams last year to monitor regional brands.

India’s largest private dairy player, Hatsun Agro, has tied up with Germany-based GEA to

set up a 0.65 mn litre capacity plant at Dharapuram in Tamil Nadu at an investment of

Rs1.2 bn. GEA is a leading supplier of equipments to dairy and food processing industry

and has helped companies like Amul to set up their largest processing plants in India. It is

currently working with the Karnataka Milk federation to set up a milk powder plant. The

plant is designed to handle 0.65 mn liters of milk per day to produce 0.3 mn litres per day

market milk in pouches and 0.15 mn liters per day of curd. It is expected to be the fourth

largest plant and their sixteenth manufacturing unit. The plant is expected to be fully

operational by early 2018. Hatsun had earlier announced an investment of Rs8.5 bn till

2018 in boosting capacities and other business segments. The plant is fully automated

for processing and packaging of liquid milk and curd. MIS reports can be generated to

capture data regarding process parameters, production and packaging making it highly

responsive and efficient.

In a big blow to McDonald's in its fight with its estranged joint venture partner, the

National Company Law Tribunal has recently reinstated Vikram Bakshi as MD of

Connaught Plaza Restaurants (CPRL), the 50:50 local JV between Bakshi and McDonald's

that operates the fast food chain in north and east India. Bakshi has been fighting a legal

battle with his American partner of 22 years since August 2013 when McDonald's

announced that his term had ended and alleged financial irregularities. Soon after, Bakshi

moved Company Law Board (CLB) against the move, and McDonald's moved the London

Court of International Arbitration in response. Late last month, CPRL shut down 43 out of

55 restaurants in Delhi as it failed to get the mandatory regulatory health licenses

renewed because of the infighting between Bakshi and McDonald's. CPRL operates 168

restaurants in north and east India. Bakshi's re-election as MD at CPRL will be subject to

the company board meeting under the supervision of NCLT-appointed administrator,

former Supreme Court judge G S Singhvi. Singhvi, tasked to help break the impasse, will

have equal voting power as any other board member. The existing board is represented

by two members from McDonald's — Bakshi and his wife. The NCLT order also said

McDonald's Corporation should not "interfere with smooth functioning" of CPRL and its

McDonald's outlets.
