Diwali Picks Report | October 2022
October 2022
India is on a firm footing on the world’s shaky ground
The Indian economy has maintained its growth momentum since last Diwali as the
economy opened. Except for a slight dip in 4QFY22 growth owing to Omicron-related
restrictions, the 13.5% YoY growth in 1QFY23 suggests that the economy is on the
right track. The momentum is continuing with both Manufacturing and Services PMI
posting expansion as the demand conditions remain strong. Owing to steady
economic growth, the trend in tax collections (7 straight months of `1.4 Lakh Crs in
GST collections) is likely to sustain, which should enable the Government to be closer
to its Fiscal Deficit target and maintain its focus on Capex. Meanwhile, the
environment is also conducive for Private investments owing to lower debt levels and
healthy banking metrics.
India’s fundamentals are sound, with a strong external position that will continue to
lend support. The recent global events have increased the importance of lowering
dependence on a single supplier, and India stands to benefit from the diversification
of supply chains. Currently, the NIFTY PE is trading at 17.4x its 1-Yr Fwd EPS, which is
near its 5-Yr average. We believe that the valuations are reasonable given the current
inflationary environment, which is leading to aggressive monetary tightening. We are
positive on Private Banks, consumption, IT, chemicals, and select cyclical plays.
Slowdown in developed countries leading to commodity prices correction
Global inflation has been hot as geopolitical events have sent energy prices surging.
Aggressive monetary policies by central banks aimed at containing inflation have
already started to impact growth. Several indicators are pointing to slowing or
negative growth which has resulted in commodity prices coming off from peak levels
by 20-22% and can aid Indian companies in margin recovery.
India is in a strong position amidst a gloomy global scenario
The momentum in the economic growth is sustaining on account of the strong
demand scenario, while the moderation in inflation is beneficial for India. The
slowdown in global growth is likely to keep oil prices in check which should aid our
external situation. Moreover, we are in a comfortable position with manageable CAD
(-2.8% in 1QFY23 of GDP) and sufficient forex reserves (US $533 Bn) which should aid
in absorbing any shocks in the near term. Strong collections would assist in reaching
the Fiscal deficit target, and rising capacity utilization levels are expected to drive
overall investments. Although the slowing global growth ought to impact our
economy, the strong domestic demand would aid in offsetting a decline in exports.
DIIs & Retail have emerged as a dominant player in the market
We have observed that our markets relative strength compared to previous periods
(of heavy selling by FIIs), has been the strength of the MFs and the growing base of
direct retail investors. Against the FII selling of `1.4lakh Cr, the MFs bought `1.5 lakh
Cr in FY22 whereas for 1HFY23 FII selling was `59k Cr and MFs bought `78K Cr. Strong
buying by MFs is supported by the SIP flows which have grown at ~24% CAGR over the
last six years. Additionally, the emergence of direct retail participants has been
instrumental in lowering our dependence on FIIs.

Slowdown in developed countries leading to commodity prices
correction
The global growth prospects have become gloomy with growth in advanced
economies already slowing or showing signs of weakness. This has been on account
of tighter monetary policies of major central banks across economies to tackle the
skyrocketing inflation. In Europe, the spillover from the war in Ukraine has also
resulted in lower growth expectations. We can see in the exhibit US and Europe’s GDP
& PMI indexes indicate a slowdown in economic activities.

Composite PMIs are in the contraction zone
Source: Bloomberg, Angel Research
The federal reserve kept short-term nominal interest rates at zero and used
quantitative easing to expand its balance sheet from US$4 trillion to US$9 trillion
between Mar 2020-22 as a response to the COVID-19-related recession. As a result of
aggressive monetary policy, the price levels surged to the highest levels seen in the
last 3-4 decades. The surge in inflation from May 2021 initially was driven by durable
goods but slowly became broad-based with the recent inflation being driven by
Energy.

After being behind the curve and not raising the rates till March 2022, the Fed has
been steadfast in raising the interest rates and keeping them at elevated levels to
tackle inflation. The Fed started to right-size its balance sheet in June 2022 and
guided for doubling the pace of contraction (from the previous three months) to
US$95 billion per month from September 2022. The acceleration in tightening would

overall economy.
Resultant commodity price correction to benefit Indian companies
Due to slowing growth in the US, EU and China, several commodity prices have
retreated from their peak levels. Brent crude prices have come off from their highs
of ~US$123 per barrel and are down 24%. Similarly, copper and steel prices are down
~27% each from their peaks. The margins of Indian companies have come under
pressure over the past few quarters on account of high input prices. The current
cooling in commodity prices would lead to a recovery in margins and aid earnings
growth.

Indian economy has been on strong growth trajectory
Indian real GDP grew by an average rate of ~6% YoY during Q2FY22-Q4FY22,
maintaining steady growth momentum with slight hurdles in January 2022 owing to
the Omicron wave. FY22 real GDP growth of 8.7% YoY was supported by a pick-up in
investments and private consumption. Q1FY23 GDP grew by double digits, +13.5% YoY
owing to strong growth in private consumption and investments. As for the supply
side, real GVA grew by 12.7% YoY led by 17.6% YoY growth in services. Growth in
construction was also impressive which grew by 16.8% YoY (+71.3% YoY in Q1FY22),
leading to growth among industries.

The growth is likely to sustain in the near term as most high-frequency indicators are
positive. For the industrial sector, India’s manufacturing PMI expanded at the fastest
pace in the last 14 months to 55.1 in September 2022. The growth has been attributed
to the strengthening of demand conditions. Services, also continue to expand with a
reading of 54.3 in September 2022 with growth being led by new businesses. With
services continuing to grow along with manufacturing, India’s Composite PMI stayed
in the expansion zone for the 12
th
straight month.

Manufacturing has maintained growth

Exhibit 9:
Services rebounded post full opening-up
Source: IHS Markit, Angel Research
GST collections at `1.48 lakh crores in September 2022, marked the 7th consecutive
month of `1.40 lakh crore+ collections. We believe that this momentum is likely to
sustain given the better adherence to compliance and steady growth in the economy.
E-way bill generations were also holding up well with ~24% YoY growth and suggest
that the GST collections would be above `1.50 lakh crores for the coming month.

Other indicators that reflect freight movement are showing growth from the pre-
pandemic levels and reflect the strength in the demand environment. Railway freight
traffic is clearly above pre-pandemic levels while CV registration, which was one of
the worse affected post the BS VI implementation and Covid outbreak, is pointing to
better freight operator profitability and a favorable demand scenario.

India’s fundamentals are sound
The paths for advanced economies and that for India are clearly diverging and India’s
fundamentals are much stronger than in the recent past which should enable it to
navigate through the uncertainty in global environment. We believe that the impact
on Indian markets is likely to be less severe than before owing to better domestic
growth and a stronger external position.
India’s Inflation has been quite flattish and near to its pre-covid levels. However,
global inflation has been peaking to historical highs. India’s inflation is 7.41% in
September’22 from 7.6% in October’20, whereas US and Europe saw its inflation
rising from 1.2% in October’20 to 8.2% in September’22 and from -0.3% in October’20
to 9.1% in August’22 respectively. Sharp correction in commodity prices from their
peak such as Brent crude, palm oil, copper etc. will prove to be beneficial to the Indian
economy as it will help control inflation better and gradually bring the overall inflation
down to the RBI’s expected tolerance band of 2%-6%.

Our CAD is in better shape than earlier
Source: RBI, IMF, Angel Research
During the 1QFY23, CAD number came ~2.8% mainly due to higher oil prices, currency
depreciation, and a higher trade deficit. The CAD is estimated to be at ~3.1% (IMF
estimates) of GDP in FY2023E given the elevated energy prices. However, this is
much better than our situation in FY2012 & FY13 when the Rupee depreciated by
~22% against the Dollar. Currently, INR depreciation is less than the other currencies
on account of stronger macro-fundamentals. In this context, India seems to be in a
stronger position with solid reserves, stable FDI inflows, continuous increase in
exports and relatively lower inflation.

As for private investments, the capacity utilizations have been improving and are
likely to further improve in Q1FY23 which should trigger fresh capex. We believe that
India is well placed to capitalize on the capex cycle given the improving overall
fundamentals. The corporate leverage levels have come off and the banks are in
better position owing to adequate capital and improved quality of loan book.

DIIs & Retail have emerged as a dominant players in the market
We have observed that our markets relative strength compared to previous periods
(of heavy selling by FIIs), has been the strength of the MFs and the growing base of
direct retail investors. Against the FII selling of `1.4lakh Cr, the MFs bought `1.5 lakh Cr
in FY22 whereas for 1HFY23 FII selling was `59k Cr and MFs bought `78K Cr. Strong
buying by MFs is supported by the SIP flows which have grown at ~24% CAGR over the
last six years. Additionally, the emergence of direct retail participants has been
instrumental in lowering our dependence on FIIs.

valuations are reasonable given the current inflationary environment which is leading
to aggressive monetary tightening. We are positive on Private Banks, consumption,

Federal Bank
Federal bank is one of India's largest old generation private sector banks.
At the end of Q2 FY2023 the bank had advances of Rs. 1.61 lakh cr. And
deposits of Rs 1.89 lakh cr. The bank predominantly has a secured lending
book which helped limit asset quality issues during the Covid 19 pandemic.
Federal Bank has posted a good set of numbers for Q2FY23 as NII, and
Advances increased by 19.1%/19.9% YoY. Provisioning for the quarter was
up by mere 9% YoY because of which PAT was up by 53% YoY. GNPA and
NNPA ratio improved to 2.46% and 0.78% while restructuring remained
stable sequentially at 2.4% of advances.
Overall asset quality for the quarter improved in Q2FY23, which was in line
with our expectations. We expect asset quality to improve further in
FY2023 given normalization of the economy. We expect the Federal bank
to post NII/PPOP/PAT CAGR of 11.3%/17.2%/26.9% between FY2022- 24
and remain positive on the bank

HDFC Bank
HDFC bank is India's largest private sector bank with a loan book of 14.79
lakh crore in Q2FY2023 and deposit base of 16.73 lakh crore. The Bank has
a very well spread-out book with wholesale constituting ~61% of the asset
book while retail accounted for the remaining 39% of the loan book
Q2FY2023 numbers were in line with expectations due to change in
portfolio mix towards corporate which resulted in expansion in NIM by
10bps YoY to 4.1%. The bank posted NII/PPOP growth of 18.9%/10% for the
quarter on the back of loan growth of 23.4% YoY.
While operating numbers were in line with expectations, the bank posted
an improvement in asset quality as GNPA/ NNPA reduced by 12/7bps YoY
to 1.23% and 0.33% of advances. Credit cost at the end of the quarter stood
at 0.87% of advances. Given best in class asset quality, expected rebound
in retail credit growth we are positive on the bank given reasonable
valuations at 2.4xFY24, adjusted book which is at a discount to historical
averages.

AU Small Finance Bank
AU Small Finance Bank is one of the leading small finance banks with Total
Loan AUM of ~50,161 Cr. at the end of Q1FY2023. It has a well-diversified
geographical presence across India. AU has a very high exposure to high
margin retail business, which accounted for 80% of AUM at the end of
Q1FY2023.
AU continued to report very strong numbers in Q1FY2023 as GNPA/ NNPA
reduced by 243/170bps YoY to 1.96% and 0.56% of advances. Restructured
advances at the end of the quarter also declined to 2.1% of advances. The
bank posted NII growth of 34.8% for the quarter on the back of strong
advances growth of 43.3% YoY while NIMs for the quarter stood at 5.9%.
We expect AU SFB to post robust NII/PPOP/ PAT CAGR of
31.2%/31.9%/38.8% between FY2022-24 on the back of AUM CAGR of 32%.
Reducing cost of funds will also help NIM expansion going forward. We
believe that the worst is over for
the bank and expect continued
improvement in asset quality in FY2023, which should lead to a rerating.

Ramakrishna forg.
Ramkrishna Forgings (RKFL), a leading forging player in India and among a
select few having heavy press, stands to benefit from a favorable demand
outlook for the Medium & Heavy Commercial Vehicle (M&HCV) industry in
domestic and other key geographies in the near term.
The company has phased out its CAPEX over the past few years during which
it was impacted by industry slowdown in certain periods. With the end to the
CAPEX cycle, the favorable outlook in the medium term, and sufficient
capacity in place, we believe RKFL would be able to post a volume CAGR of
14% over FY22-24E.
RKFL has been able to add new products which have higher value addition.
Better mix along with operating leverage aided ~520 bps YoY improvement
in EBITDA margins in FY22 and are expected to sustain going ahead.

Suprajit Eng.
Suprajit Engineering (SEL) is the largest supplier of automotive cables to the
domestic OEMs with a presence across both 2Ws and PVs. Over the years,
SEL has evolved from a single product/client company in India to have a
diversified exposure which coupled with its proposition of low-cost player
has enabled it to gain market share and more business from existing
customers.
SEL overall has outperformed the Indian Auto industry in recent years aided
by market share gains as well as commercialization of new products. The
company believes that consolidation of vendors and new client additions
would help in maintaining the trend of market/wallet share gains.
SEL has grown profitably over the years and as a result, it boasts a strong
balance sheet (net cash). We believe SEL is a prime beneficiary of a ramp-up
in production by OEMs and its newly developed products for EVs would
support revenues due to higher kit value. Its premium valuations are justified
in our opinion owing to its strong outlook and top-grade quality of earnings.

Amber Enterp.
Amber Enterprises India Ltd. (Amber) is the market leader in the room air
conditioners (RAC) outsourced manufacturing space in India. Amber would
outperform the industry due to its dominant position in Room AC contract
manufacturer, increase in share of business in existing customers and new

Amber plans to increase revenues from components (by increasing product
offerings, catering to newer geographies, adding new clients) and exports
(already started in the Middle east). In the past 2-3 year, Amber has acquired
companies like IL JIN Electronics, Ever and Sidwal Refrigeration Industries,
which would help in backward integration and also help the company to foray
in different segments like railway, metro and defense.
Going forward, we expect healthy profitability on back of foray into the
Commercial AC segment, entry into export markets, participation in the PLI
scheme.

with more than 1,008 stores including KFC, Pizza Hut and Costa Coffee.
Currently, DIL operates 391 KFC stores, 436 Pizza Hut stores, 69 Costa Coffee

Lower capex (shifted its strategy to smaller & delivery-focused stores) and
improving store-
level economics would boost the operating margin going
ahead. Going forward, we expect DIL to report strong top-
line growth &
improvement in operating margins on the back of aggressive store addition,
improving store unit economics and strong brand.
