Today’s top research idea

Tata Chemicals (Initiating Coverage): Flight of rebirth; Transforming into a growth company; re-rating imminent

  • TTCH is using its cash cows – soda ash and sodium bicarbonate – to build growth businesses such as consumer and specialty products. In the consumer business, it enjoys leadership in the domestic table salts market and is fortifying its pulses and spices portfolios. In the specialty products business, it is developing nanomaterial and nutritional solutions.
  • Massive cash generation of INR39.7b via divestment of the urea and phosphatic fertilizers business and sale of investments coupled with steady accruals from the soda ash business would help TTCH repay debt. Its interest outgo is likely to decline from INR4.1b in FY17 to INR2.1b in FY20.
  • As TTCH scales up its growth businesses and deleverages its balance sheet, we expect its consolidated RoCE to improve considerably, in turn driving a stock re-rating. We believe it would be fair to assign ~30% premium to its five-year average EV/EBITDA of 7.5x. Our SOTP-based target price of INR940 (implied EV/EBITDA of 9.7x FY20E) implies 36% upside. We initiate coverage with Buy.

RBI lets banks spread out provisioning for bond market losses over 4 quarters

  • The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Monday allowed banks to spread out the provisioning to cover losses on their government bond portfolio across four quarters, in a relief for lenders who would have otherwise faced an immediate hit to their bond portfolio due to rising yields. This dispensation to spread the so-called mark-to-market (MTM) provisioning is available for the quarters ending December 2017 and March 2018.
