Valuation and View
The near term outlook on the 2W industry remains stressed with no green shoots visible. The weak environment coupled with regulatory push related high price hikes have added to the stress. We are however enthused by the company’ strategic push on the dealership network, the success of new products and its intent of launching new variants to suit customer needs. We believe that the company’s core strength – its brand equity – remains intact despite the current slowdown. Valuations at ~18XFY21 are now more reasonable. Maintain Outperformer with a TP of Rs18000 (20XFY21).
