VOLTAS: Voltas-Arcelik JV launches home appliances; Targets the mass economy segment with ‘value for money’ products

(volt IN,Mkt Cap USD2.7b, CMP INR614, TP INR605, 2% Downside, Neutral)

 

  • Voltas-Arcelik JV launches home appliances portfolio in India: Products in its home appliance portfolio consist of refrigerators, washing machines, dishwashers and microwaves, and these will be sold under the brand “Voltas Beko”. With this launch, the Voltas-Arcelik JV should address a potential market of INR430b, which is growing at 10-12% annually. The company is looking to corner around 10% market share, and to generate revenues of INR100b by 2025 in the home appliances segment. We expect a pan-India launch for these products by November 2018. The brand will use the tagline “Partners of Everyday Happiness” for its promotions. Key competitors for ‘Voltas Beko’ are LG, Samsung and Whirlpool (Page-2 onwards market size, market share, competition and pricing across categories).
  • Product range targets the mass economy segment with “Value for money” products: The JV named ‘Voltbek Home Appliances Private Limited (Voltbek)’ plans to launch over 100 SKU's over the next three months including: a) 44 SKU's in refrigerators; b) 40 SKU's in washing machines; c) 12 SKU's in microwaves; and d) 7 SKU's in dishwashers. The brand aims to provide its customers with state-of-the-art innovative products leveraging the Voltas brand and distribution, coupled with Arcelik’s global expertise in product development. Its range of home appliances would be “value for money” and should cater across segments in metros, tier-II and tier-III cities.
