​Coal India: April 2017: Off-take growth remains strong; E-auction realization impacted by weaker mix in March 2017

(COAL IN, Mkt Cap USD26.4b, CMP INR275, TP INR335, 20% Upside, Buy)

Off-take grew by 6.7% YoY in April

  • ​Off-take grew 6.7% YoY to 45.3mt in April, driven by demand growth and import substitution, mirroring the trends (+5-6% YoY) of the past few months. We estimate 6.8% YoY growth in off-take in FY18 (after sluggish +1.6% in FY17), led by end to the destocking cycle, acceleration in import substitution and demand growth.
  • Off-take growth at CCL, SECL, NCL and WCL subsidiaries was in double-digits. BCCL reported an 11% YoY decline, continuing the trend of the last few months, due to an increase in coal prices. MCL reported a 7% YoY decline due to local issues in ramping up production.
  • Coal production declined 4.1% YoY to 38.4mt in April, led by destocking of inventories at mines.
