4 Small & Midcap Stocks To Buy After A 7% Fall In The Stock Market Indices

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail

Emkay Global is optimistic on the stock of Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail and says the company’s performance stood out in terms of per-store recovery for Lifestyle EBOs at 110% in Q2 vs. peers at 70-80%. According to the broking firm, the faster recovery in the relatively more impacted Pantaloons segment and the strong pick-up in the wholesale channel (MBO+LFS) on festive stocking, can surprise ahead.

“Faster recovery trends, aggressive portfolio/store expansion and improving efficiencies drive our positive stance on Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail. Valuations at 27x/22x FY23/FY24E EBITDA (pre-IndAS) are at a discount to peers. We have a Buy rating on Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail with a Dec’22E target price of Rs 340, based on 30x Dec’23E pre-IndAS EBITDA. Delay in full unlocking remains a key downside risk to estimates,” the brokerage has said.

The shares of Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail last changed hands at Rs 262 on the NSE.

Bharat Forge

Bharat Forge

Emkay Global is also bullish on the stock of forgings maker, Bharat Forge, and has a buy call on this midcap stock. “Our positive view is underpinned by Bharat Forge’s leadership position in automotive forgings, focus on diversification and expected recovery in the core segments,” the brokerage has said.

According to Emkay Global, the company’s revenue growth is expected to be robust at a 19% CAGR over FY22-24E, driven by strong recovery in domestic MHCV industry production, growth in export CV segments due to a revival in North America Class-8 trucks industry; consistent growth in the PV segment and recovery in other industrial segments.

“Medium-term performance will also be aided by high-potential segments such as Defence, Railways, Aerospace and Aluminium parts. We have a buy rating on the stock with a price target of Rs 950,” the brokerage has said.

The stock of Bharat Forge was last trading at Rs 703.

Birlasoft

Birlasoft

Emkay Global also has a buy on small cap IT stock Birlasoft. The firm has set a Dec 2022 target price of Rs 550 based on 25x Dec’23E EPS.

“The management remains confident of sustaining revenue growth momentum and delivering mid-teen revenue growth in FY22 on broad-based demand, healthy deal intake (ACV remains robust although reported TCV not reflecting strength YoY), robust deal pipeline (up 50% YoY) and improving win rates, growing annuity revenue, and anticipated recovery in Enterprise Solutions. The company is well on track to achieve aspirational goal of USD1bn revenue by Mar’25 with an EBITDAM of 18%,” the brokerage has said.

Shares of Birlasoft were last changing hands at Rs 483.80.

Sunteck Realty

Sunteck Realty

The brokerage has also recommended buying the stock of small cap realty player Sunteck Realty with a Dec‘22E target price of Rs740 on the stock based on 1.2x NAV (Development NAV of Rs 618 + NAV premium of Rs 124). “Further upside is possible from faster monetization of non-core land,” the brokerage has said.

“On a trailing 3-yr moving average basis, sales may witness a 27% CAGR in FY21-FY24E. Further, we estimate core ROE improving to 11% by FY24E as both construction and sales cycle gains traction,” the brokerage has further added in its latest report.

According to Emkay the key risks include delay in JDA formation, slower than estimated execution, rapid reversal in interest rate cycle resulting in high interest rate environment.

“BUY” This Mid Cap Pharma Stock With A Target Price of Rs. 2530: Edelweiss Securities

The brokerage’s take on Ipca Laboratories

According to the brokerage’s research report “Ipca has grown at almost 1.5x industry growth over the last five years. Its success is attributable to its R&D, where it has successfully demonstrated aceclofenac (Zerodol) superiority to other NSAIDs and low0dose chlorthalidone (CTD) efficacy that has enabled it to shift Rx to its own brands. Ipca is confident of not only sustaining its pain franchise- Zerodol peak sales >INR10bn – but also grow cardiac and other divisions. The company is getting aggressive to expand cardiac therapy to an aspirational 25% of revenue (from ~17-18%) and plans to add 350-400 salesforce.”

Edelweiss Securities Ltd in its research report has also said that “The UK business is ~60% down from its peak, but Ipca is confident of recovering a large part in the next 18 months as it will have a basket of ~25 products (up from 9) the next 18 months on its own label. The EU situation, which is currently facing excess inventory, should start easing over the next couple of quarters. Ipca’s acquisitions are either to fill gaps in existing businesses (Lyka for injectable) or part of long-term plans (Pisgah: low-volume/high-value CRAMS). Investments in subsidiaries/associates have been less than USD100mn over the last five years, keeping BS lean.”

Investment rationale

Investment rationale

The brokerage in its research report has reported that “Ipca has had a strong execution track record in the past years along with maintaining healthy balance sheet (low net D/E) despite an investment phase. Even without the US, Ipca is likely to report double-digit growth as: a) main domestic therapies pain and CVS continue to post market-leading growth; b) API exports to remain strong as Ipca bolsters sartans over its existing portfolio; and c) recovery in generics led by EU. Ipca has a moat w.r.t. cost leadership in several APIs, enabling it to be the cheapest supplier in the world. With domestic and APIs contributing ~70% to revenue, Ipca deserves to trade at a premium.”

Buy Ipca Laboratories With A Target Price of Rs. 2,530

Buy Ipca Laboratories With A Target Price of Rs. 2,530

The brokerage has stated that “The unprecedented input cost escalation should start easing over the next six months. Ipca is confident of maintaining its volume in sartans as it has developed a new process and expects orders in the rest of the API business to also pick up. Near-term pressures should not obscure its market-beating growth in India, its vertically integrated business model, API potential beyond FY22 due to capacity addition and an enviable cost optimisation track record.”

According to the brokerage’s call “Ipca has been a beneficiary of several one-offs such as HCQs during covid and sartan opportunities in API. Hence, while FY22 growth looks challenging, FY23 should see normal growth resuming. We stay optimistic on Ipca’s long-term prospects. Retain ‘BUY/SO’ with a TP of INR2,530.”

The brokerage’s take on Coal India Ltd.

Edelweiss Securities in its research report has said that “CIL’s Nov-21 production/offtake rose 4.3%/10.3% YoY. Key points: i) Production rate at 1.79mt/day is the highest ever for the month of November. ii) Demand remained buoyant with the offtake rate at 1.89/day-significantly higher than in the past. iii) Pithead inventory reduced further to merely 29mt (Mar-21-end: 97mt) as demand outpaced production. iv) SECL/WCL showed a significant performance uptick while MCL continued to be the best-performing subsidiary. In our view, CIL’s performance is likely to get a leg-up from the most profitable and productive subsidiaries – MCL, SECL and NCL – ramping up production. As a result, we expect our FY22E offtake of 643mt (up 12% YoY) to be met.”

The brokerage has claimed that “We expect CIL’s cash accretion to continue mainly due to higher sales volume and e-auction prices. On the working capital front, inventory continues to decline and receivables remain under check. Hence, we expect cash accretion to sustain in H2FY22. We believe that our FY22 divided estimate of INR18/share (dividend yield: 11.3%) is likely to be met, particularly in light of the first interim dividend of INR9/share.”

Buy Coal India Ltd. with a target price of Rs. 210

Buy Coal India Ltd. with a target price of Rs. 210

According to the brokerage’s research report “Despite a rather lackluster H1FY22 performance, we expect FY22 to be salubrious for CIL mainly due to volume growth and higher e-auction prices. On the working capital front, we already see a significant respite as both receivables and inventory has declined. We believe that significant cash balance/accretion would be utilised towards the payment of dividends. We believe that the ensuing wage hike is likely to be offset by price increase of regulated coal, and be EBITDA-neutral in the worst case.”

The brokerage has further claimed that “We maintain ‘BUY/SO’ on CIL with an unchanged TP of INR210 on 9x FY23E EPS. Our recommendation is also driven by a potential dividend yield of 11-13% over the next two years.”

Tax department sends reassessment notices to global fund houses, BFSI News, ET BFSI

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


The Income Tax Department has reopened old assessments of at least a dozen global fund houses and private equity funds alleging under-reporting of income through the misuse of tax treaties.

The department, in a communication last week, asked these fund houses to furnish details about the structure of their business, past investors and bank signatories, an official told ET.

The department has asked them to explain irregularities in computation of income for the assessment years 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16, the official said.

Its early estimates peg income that allegedly escaped assessment at more than ₹300 crore, the person said.

The notices were sent after earlier explanations by the funds were found unsatisfactory by the department, which wants to look deeper into income statements and returns. The reassessment notices were issued under Section 148 of the I-T Act, which deals with income that has escaped assessment.

Under the rules, the tax department can go back up to 10 years to scrutinise past assessments if the concealment of income is ₹50 lakh and above.

Most Investments via Mauritius, Cyprus
“Most of these global private equity funds invested in India through Mauritius and Cyprus during these assessment years,” said the official. The department wants to know why these funds hadn’t invested directly but through a particular jurisdiction, he said.

The department reserves the right to reject a tax residency certificate (TRC) if it detects abuse of tax treaty benefits and treaty shopping. The Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) didn’t respond to queries.

Most global funds channelled their investments in India via jurisdictions such as Mauritius and Singapore that allowed them to enjoy capital gains tax exemption. However, India amended the tax treaty with Mauritius effective April 1, 2017, withdrawing the exemption.

Capital Gains Tax
These funds are currently subject to capital gains tax. Private equity funds, which deal in unlisted companies, attract long-term capital gains at 10%, while short-term capital gain tax is levied at 30-40%.

Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) that invest in listed companies attract long-term capital gains at 10% for equities sold on the exchanges, even if securities transaction tax has been paid.

Tax experts said the latest move could create uncertainty for investors. “Any fresh tax demands on such old investments could create challenges for fund managers because they may not be able to recover taxes and penalties from investors who might have already exited the fund,” said Rajesh H Gandhi, partner, Deloitte Haskins & Sells LLP.

Foreign investors have been hoping that, as a result of certain favourable court cases and specific protection under the General Anti-Avoidance Rule for investments made before 2017, past investments would not be challenged, he said.

Companies’ payments banks can’t turn into SFBs, BFSI News, ET BFSI

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


MUMBAI: Payments banks promoted by corporates will not be eligible to seek a transition to a small finance bank with the Reserve Bank of India not accepting the internal working group proposal on bank licenses for corporates.

Of the payments banks that are already licensed, Airtel Payments Bank and Jio Payments Banks are promoted by corporates. These are the only two payments banks of the 11 that were granted approval that continue to function. Aditya Birla Payments Bank had surrendered its licence in 2019 others including Sun Pharma’s Dilip Shanghvi had dropped their plans earlier.

This would mean that small finance banks would have to come from the NBFC microfinance segment or cooperative banks that choose to convert themselves into small finance banks. Most of the small finance banks operating today were largely converted from microfinance companies or non-banking finance companies engaged in small loans.

Among the non-corporate promoted payments banks, Paytm PB and Fino PB have indicated that they would pursue an SFB licence if the opportunity arises.

RBI’s internal working group on bank ownership had said that small finance banks would be considered for transitioning into a universal bank provided they meet the minimum paid-up capital and net worth requirement applicable to universal banks.

SFBs are considered to have a better business model compared to payments banks as they can lend and issue credit cards. They also do not face any geographic or size restrictions, unlike cooperative banks. However, they do face restrictions in extending large loans to corporate houses.

Fixed Deposit That Offers 8.50% Interest With State Government Backing

Tamil Nadu Transport Development Finance Corporation Fixed Deposits Interest Rates (Non senior citizens, regular interest income)

Period Monthly Quarterly Annually

60-months 8.00% 8.00% 8.24%

24 months 7.25%
36-months 8.25% 8.25% 8.51%
60-months 8.50% 8.50% 8.77%

The interest rates are as on December 3, 2021. This is a government of Tamil Nadu backed enterprise and hence the deposits are very safe. The deposits are also available under the cumulative scheme, where the interest rate is more or less the same, but, the yields could go higher because of compounding.

Other details of the Tamil Nadu Transport Development Finance Corporation Fixed Deposits

Other details of the Tamil Nadu Transport Development Finance Corporation Fixed Deposits

The deposits cannot be opened online and one may have to visit the office or courier the fixed deposit forms, duly filled-in with the KYC requirements. Under the money multiplier scheme the deposits are compounded quarterly. The company is a good profit making enterprise that has been generating profits since 1975.

These deposits are relatively safe, but, the only problem right now is that there is no online facility. Therefore, it would be beneficial for those staying in Tamil Nadu and who can visit the office and open the fixed deposits. For other set of investors the task maybe a little more painful.

However, with the interest rates going as high as 8.77% and if you have a big amount, even travelling to Tamil Nadu to open the deposits maybe worth.

Invest in these deposits for the long-term

Invest in these deposits for the long-term

It is unlikely that interest rates in the economy would rally higher any time soon. It is therefore imperative to block money at higher interest rates for a longer term tenure. For example, senior citizens can get as high as 8.77% on the 5-year deposit. It is therefore advisable to go for the 5 year tenure period. We believe that in an era where even the Senior Citizens Savings Scheme is able to offer only 7.4% interest for senior citizens this is not a bad option at all. Apart from this the Tamil Nadu Transport Development Finance Corporation is a wholly owned company of the government of Tamil Nadu.

There is another company called the Tamil Nadu Power and Infra Finance company, where the fixed deposit interest rate offered is as high as 8.5%. This company interestingly has online facilities and investors can open their fixed deposits online. Those who are long term investors should apply for these deposits. The Reserve Bank of India is unlikely to hike interest rates anytime soon and the current rates being offered of upto 8.5 to 8.77 per cent is not bad at all. It’s hard to get returns on fixed deposits these days.

Market competition, lower credit offtake push banks to pursue credit growth at lower yields

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


The country’s largest lender State Bank of India (SBI) saw its yield on domestic advances fall 71 basis points on a year-on-year basis in Q2FY22 to 7.51%.

By Piyush Shukla

Yields on advances by banks have fallen between 54-166 basis points (bps) in the September quarter (Q2FY22) compared to the same period last year, due to interest rate competition from capital markets and lower credit offtake.

The country’s largest lender State Bank of India (SBI) saw its yield on domestic advances fall 71 basis points on a year-on-year basis in Q2FY22 to 7.51%. Its total domestic advances, as on September end, rose 4.6% year on year to Rs 21.56 lakh crore. ICICI Bank, on the other hand, saw its yield on advances fall to 8.34% in Q2FY22 from 8.88% a year ago. The private lender’s total loan book, as on September end stood at Rs 7.65 lakh crore, up 17.2% on year.

“Credit offtake in the system remains weak at around 6%-6.5%. On the capital markets side, the borrowing rates are very fine so some part of the borrowing is moving toward the capital market and thus banks are also passing on the benefit of lower cost of funds to borrowers and which is why you see the yield coming down,” said Karan Gupta, director – financial institutions, India Ratings and Research.

Gupta added that presently banks are not witnessing a significant impact on their net interest margins (NIMs) despite lower yields because of lower cost of funds.
For SBI, the cost of deposit has fell from 4.35% in Q2FY21 to 3.84% as on September end. Similarly, private sector banks including ICICI Bank and IDBI Bank saw their cost of deposits fall to 3.53% and 3.66% in Q2FY22 from 4.22% and 4.53% a year ago, respectively. But while not visible yet, NIMs may be impacted going ahead due to any significant increase in concerns on asset quality deterioration resulting in interest income reversals, Gupta said. In July-September, Bank of Baroda’s global NIM fell 19-bps quarter-on-quarter to 2.85% due to interest income reversal pertaining to a non-banking finance company account, as per an Edelweiss Securities report.

“…If we were to look at the net of one offs, including interest reversals on account where there was a stay, our net interest margins would be broadly unchanged between last quarter and this quarter,” said Sanjiv Chadha, MD and CEO at Bank of Baroda in a post earnings analyst call.

City Union Bank to start pushing non-gold loan advances by FY22-end

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


N Kamakodi, MD & CEO of CUB, recently said during an analysts’ call that when the growth of other credit increases, correspondingly the growth of gold loan would also decrease.

South India-based private sector lender City Union Bank (CUB) has said it will start pushing growth in non-gold loan advances by the end of the current financial year. During the last few quarters, due to the Covid pandemic and in the absence of other avenues for growth, the bank had given thrust to improve gold loans, which were increased by 73% from Rs 4,537 crore in Q2 FY21 to Rs 7,849 crore in Q2 FY 22.

N Kamakodi, MD & CEO of CUB, recently said during an analysts’ call that when the growth of other credit increases, correspondingly the growth of gold loan would also decrease.

“We have not pushed our growth pedal in non-gold loan credit. We should be probably starting that from the end of the financial year if everything goes well. When the growth of other credit increases, correspondingly the growth of gold loan will also decrease, this is how we have managed growth in the past,” he said.

Currently, all the rural and semi-urban branches of the bank have gold loan as a product. As regards to metro branches, may be only 10% of the branches will have gold loan products. Out of a total 700, 350 to 400 branches may have gold loan products, he said.

On the recovery front, Kamakodi said in the first half of FY22, the bank had recorded a total recovery of Rs 290 crore comprising about Rs 210 crore from live accounts and about Rs 80 crore from technically written-off accounts, compared to Rs 108 crore comprising Rs 72 crore of live account and Rs 36 crore from technically written-off accounts in H1 of FY21.

In Q2 of FY22, it recorded a total recovery of Rs 189 crore comprising Rs 128 crore from live accounts and Rs 61 crore from the technically written off accounts.
“The current quarter recovery is the highest in the recent years, but still has to improve from here. The recovery will determine the ROA over the next couple of years, so we are taking all our steps under our command to improve this going forward,” he said.

The total provisions made during Q2 of FY22 and H1 of FY22 was at Rs 223 crore and Rs 433 crore against Rs 227 crore and Rs 429 crore in Q2 of FY21 and H1 of FY21 respectively.

He said that post Covid, only 4% to 5% of the transactions has been happening through the branches creating a huge capacity once the growth pace picks up.
On the network expansion plans, he said the bank every year used to keep plans for about 50 branches. “We opened only 3 branches or so in the financial year 2021 and this year probably we may open about 25 branches. That is what we are planning if everything goes well and we may initiate around 75 branches getting opened in the next year,” he said.

Kamakodi said the bank will also be looking at the co-lending space, underlining that it will do it on its own our terms by identifying a proper partner, going through small portfolio, testing the behaviour through cycles before expanding it and taking it as one of the main avenues of growth.

“What I can definitely say is that for the next three years, we would have definitely started co-lending, but it will not be a very significant proportion of our overall book even three years down the line. Once we get the total comfort and grip over how that segment is performing and what amount of control we have on that portfolio, we will take further call on that,” he said.

India Ratings: RBI’s new norms likely to increase NBFCs’ bad loans by one-third

[ad_1]

Read More/Less


However, NBFCs would have to invest in systems and processes to comply with daily stamping requirements, India Ratings said, adding that it understands that NBFCs have presented to the RBI for providing a transition period on this requirement.

Non-banking finance companies (NBFCs) will likely see around one-third rise in their non-performing assets (NPAs) after the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) latest clarification on upgradation of non-performing non performing assets (NPAs) kicks in.

On November 12, the central bank said loan accounts classified as NPAs may be upgraded to ‘standard’ assets only if the entire arrears of interest and principal are paid by the borrower. The rule will apply to both banks and NBFCs.

India Ratings said NBFCs will likely have modest impact on provisioning because of the clarification as such lenders are using Indian Accounting Standard (IND-As), and generally for higher-rated NBFCs, provision policy is more conservative than income recognition, asset classification (IRAC) requirements. However, NBFCs would have to invest in systems and processes to comply with daily stamping requirements, India Ratings said, adding that it understands that NBFCs have presented to the RBI for providing a transition period on this requirement.

“Accounts can get into NPA category just for a day’s delay in paying the instalments and once it gets categorised as NPA it will not be able to become standard unless all the arrears are cleared. So, in other words, accounts would get categorised as NPAs at a faster pace and would remain sticky in that category for a longer period of time. Both these accounting treatments would result into higher headline number for NBFCs. It may so happen that NBFCs would disclose NPA numbers as per IRAC norms and stage 3 numbers as per Ind-As separately in their disclosures,” India Ratings said.
