MCXIL is compared with Bombay Stock Exchange of India Ltd, National Stock Exchange of India Ltd, United Stock Exchange of India Ltd, Calcutta Stock Exchange , National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange, National Multi-Commodity Exchange of India Ltd, Financial Technologies (India) Ltd in India and Globally compared with Ichiyoshi Securities Co Ltd of Japan, Osaka Securities Exchange also from Japan, CME group, Intercontinental Exchange Inc, Nasdaq OMX Group/THE, CBOE Holdings Inc, London Stock Exchange Group, TMX Group Inc, Deutsche Boerse AG, Bolsas Y Mercados Espanoles, ASX Ltd, Singapore Exchange Ltd, Hong Kong Exchange & Clearing House Ltd, Bursa Malaysia BHD.
                                                
Investment Rationale:
Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) is a state-of-the-art electronic commodity futures exchange, with nearly monopolistic market share of around 90.50 % in commodity market in India. MCX enjoys a competitive edge, and has its own Economic Moat (A competitive advantage is, that one company has over the other companies in the same industry – by Warren Buffett) and is expanding its moats which is a very strong sign of as a future Multi-bagger given that its has an strong technology support for its trading platform supplied by its then promoter, Financial Technologies India (FTECH), which is a leading developer of exchange related software and technology in India. Technology for the exchange industry is difficult to replicate, and this provides the MCX as a company with a competitive advantage. Exchanges require constant technology upgrades and support, necessitated by regulatory regime and market forces. MCX is able to obtain speedy and efficient technology solutions from FTECH. MCX’s current technology infrastructure is sufficient to handle daily trading volumes of up to 10,000,000 in a day. Indian commodities exchanges are highly regulated, and the current regulatory environment, foreign institutional investors (FIIs), banks and mutual funds cannot trade on commodity exchanges. Growth potential in the economy like India's remains huge over the next decade, which is expected to drive the demand for commodities. The increase in physical market volumes consequently increases the hedging requirements for industry players, influencing derivative trading volumes. Penetration remains low - Globally, futures Gold volumes are 70-80x that of physical trade as against 17-18x in India, 20x in Crude as against 7x in India, 100x in Aluminum as against 8-9x in India. MCX has agreements with financial information service agencies to provide real time data-feed on trading prices, trading volume and other information on the Exchange and on the spot market. The company currently has such arrangements with the following entities: Bloomberg Finance L.P.; NewsWire 18 Private Limited; IQN Data Solutions Private Limited; Reuters India Private Limited; Interactive Data (Europe) Limited and TickerPlant Limited. 

 "In order to raise from its own Ashes 
                                                           A Phoenix First Must Burn "


                                                                                        - Octavia E Butler.

Just as the Phoenix bird raises from its ashes, MCX will also raise from the ashes. Recently, MCX stock prices faced extreme pressure in its prices on brouses and its prices went down from Rs. 1300 to Rs. 238 levels in months, due to Rs. 5,500 Cr National Spot Exchange Limited trade settlement scam. NSEL is a subsidiary of MCX’s parent company Financial Technology India Ltd, and as a promoter of MCX, after this scam, FTIL is forced to reduce their stake in MCX from 26 % to merely 2 % of paid up equity capital of MCX within the end of January 2014. The commodity regulator Forward Market Commission recently declared that Financial Technology, Jignesh Shah along with Joseph Messy, unfit as a promoter to run any exchanges in India due to NSEL Scam. From the reports of FMC Jignesh shah resigned from MCX as a Vice Chairman and also resigned as a shareholder director from the MCX. Last month of November 2013, the parent company sold its entire stake in Singapore Mercantile exchange to Intercontinental Exchange Group Inc for $ 150 million. The stake sale of 24 % would mean a additional pressure for a short time bring prices of MCX coming down, but since the change of guard of the company is huge positive and this will further strengthen the fundamentals of the company. MCX is a good business and it looks like its internal problems are getting sorted out, it is already being punished quite a lot. Also the fact remains that the impact of the securities transaction tax (STT) will probably going to impact MCX’s earnings, but still it’s a good long term opportunity. On 13 January 2014, MCX received approval of Institutional shareholders to raise funds through issue of shares in a form of rights issue to its existing 22 institutional shareholders of MCX-SX on basis of 1:1 at Rs. 10 per share on a proportionate basis. These domestic financial Institutional Investor includes IFCI, Union Bank of India and Punjab National Bank together holding 88.53 % of the undiluted shares. The process is expected to be completed by Mid-March. The exchange is expected to garner between Rs. 500 - Rs. 600 Cr through this issue. This rights issue will also result in the Financial Technologies group's effective stake in the exchange coming down from 70.9 % to 56.4 %, this is because most of its stake is held as a convertible warrants, for which no additional securities will be issued through the rights issue. MCX- SX's Net worth (Share capital + Reserves and Surplus) has come down from Rs. 274.6 Cr to Rs. 185.8 cr between March 2013 and September 2013. At this rate, the company's net worth could breach the stipulation of a minimum Net Worth of Rs. 100 Cr by SEBI. Apart from a successful rights issue, the exchange's net worth can also get boost if the FTIL group find takers for its warrants which are then converted into equity shares. Also MCX-SX have commenced trading in Interest Rate Futures (IRF) contracts in the currency derivatives segment from 20 january 2014.

Outlook and Valuation:

Multi Commodity exchange of India (MCX), India’s biggest commodity bourse, has an average daily turnover of about Rs. 240 billion or 77 % of the country’s exchange commodities volumes. MCX has its market leadership and has early mover advantage, edge in innovation with technology support from FTIL and is sticky liquidity. The exchange, with eight years of operating history and is in a growth phase with structural levers in place for an upward trajectory in volume over the long term. Until a new player poses a stiff competition or institutions are permitted to participate on CommEx, it is expected that MCX’s commission yields to stabilise. Comparing this company with its global peers, MCX valuations are at highly discounts with matured exchanges in developed nations and at 35 % 50 % discount to valuations of listed CommExes in developing markets. Currently CME Group Inc trades at a PE of 27.71x; Intercontinentale Exchange Group Inc trades at a PE of 29.48x; NASDAQ OMX Group Inc trades at a PE of 20.75x; CBOE Holdings Inc trades at a PE of 27.49x; MarketAxess Holdings trades at a PE of 34.27x; NYSE Euronext trades at a PE of 21.91x and MCX trades at 9 times.. Hence this discount is temporary in nature due to problems faced by its parent company and requlatory issues, and once these issues are solved these discounts will get narrowed down. Adding that there are possibilities of opening of option trading or participation by FIIs, MFs, Banks etc and possibilities of revision invariable fee structure for technology cost sharing with FTIL and also cannot rule out the possibilities of scale up in valuation of MCX-SX upside. It is expected that, MCX will sustain its market leadership which is steamed up from its technological edge and future readiness. MCX's volumes have grown at a CAGR of 47 % over FY07-FY12. Future potential remains exciting given the likelihood of new products and participants with the FCRA Bill, with its 20 lakhs client accounts as compared with 1.9 Cr – 2 CR Demat accounts, the industry has only scratched the surface with respect to potential volumes. MCX, with its technology as a backbone and readiness to latch on to new opportunities and also with the policy to maintain 50 % payout ratio is a key valuation positive. The valuation of MCX’s standalone business at 20x FY15E EPS of Rs. 37.60 gives us the standalone valuation of MCX at Rs. 752 per share; the valuation of the stake in MCX-SX (incl. warrants) contributes additional Rs. 110 per share to MCX. It is expected that MCX to have volumes growth of 15 % CAGR over FY12-15 and a PAT CAGR of 13 % over this period. Also, the ROE should sustain its level in the high 20's.  In my view MCX could report FY14E EPS of Rs. 66.50/share and for FY 15E of Rs. 76.50/share. The stock should go to the price of Rs. 862.00, and conservatively keeping the target of Rs. 800 and recommend to Accumulate on the stock at every dips.

Investment Rationale:
Cera Style Studio : Indiranagar, Bengaluru

It’s also the first sanitary ware company to use natural gas, for its commercial needs, Cera has been on the forefront of launching a new and versatile colour range and introducing the bath suite concept.

Cera’s WCs are designed to flush in just 4 liters of water is another notable innovation by the company. The Sanitary ware industry is around Rs. 1,050 crore in India and is going through a metamorphosis, with several foreign brands eyeing India as a potential market and developers and traders looking at China as a source for cheaper Sanitaryware. Some of the foreign brands have commenced production in India, while some are establishing offices in India, apart from those who have already got well-established in this country in the past few years. Added to this is innumerable small scale industries located mainly in Gujarat, manufacturing low-end Sanitaryware. The Company’s brand CERA, with its impeccable legacy of over three decades, continues to grow, much above the industry rate, despite the competition from peer brands-both domestic and international. The Company’s well entrenched and loyal distribution network, nation-wide sales and service teams, immaculate product quality and continuous advertising and promotional activities through television, print, OOH and POP have helped place CERA in an enviable platform in the minds of the customers. The Company’s brand extension to other related categories like showers, faucets, PVC cisterns and seat covers, etc. has also helped in accelerating the growth. During the year 2012-13, the Company forayed into tiles in a modest way and launched digital wall and floor tiles, vitrified tiles in both soluble salt and double charge and also regular porcelain tiles. Management is optimistic on such brand extensions and are positive that this will continue in the coming years as well, which will help CERA to establish itself as a total home solutions brand.

Several Bathrooms are displayed live, so that the customers can get a feel of Cera’s vast range of products.

Outlook and Valuation:

Cera Sanitaryware Ltd is a pioneer of the first sanitary ware segments in India launching innovative designs & water saving products. Cera has added other products like kitchen sinks, mirrors and sensor products to its range under Bathware. India accounted for 8 % of the world's sanitary ware production. The market size is estimated to be Rs. 1050 Cr. The branded segment accounts for a larger share of 60 % and is growing at a rate of 15 % - 17 %, whereas the market share of the non-branded segment has shrunk to 40 %, growing at a slower pace of 8 % - 9 %. The organized sector, comprising nine units, reported a production of 108,000 TPA against a total capacity of 118,000 TPA; the 250 units in the unorganized sector produced about 180,000 TPA against a total capacity of 220,000 TPA. The outlook for the tile industry appears to be positive over the medium term. This optimism stems from the likelihood of robust demand over the medium term. The real estate market is expected to grow at CAGR 15 % to 16 % over 2010 to 2015. Estimates suggests a shortage of an approximate 2.5 crore housing units in the middle and low income groups at the beginning of the Eleventh Plan. It is also expected that the medium housing segment will record around 25 % CAGR while luxury housing will experience a 33 % CAGR during 2009-13. The residence owners are looking for value-added products and the retail market is expected to grow from present 5 % to 10.4 % by 2012. The CAGR of company during last Five years has remained much more than industry growth rate.

The strategic planning in terms of product optimization and leveraging on Cera’s strong brand image with well supported penetrating distribution network continues to drive company’s high growth and carving out new standards for itself. CERA has expanded its production capacity to 2.7 million pieces per annum from 2.0 million pieces. Cera's entry into the Faucet ware business is a positive as it provides a significant scalable opportunity. Cera's faucet business is expected to grow at 29 % CAGR and is expected to be profitable durning FY13-15. The Company has also added other products like kitchen sinks, mirrors and sensor products to its range under Bathware.

Already 50 CERA Style Galleries are functional all over the country. Together, the CERA Style Studios and CERA Style Galleries have made a great impact in improving the retail experience for prospective customers, institutional buyers and influencers of CERA.

Maruti Suzuki’s Q2FY14 operating performance was ahead of market estimates, with EBITDA for the quarter at Rs. 1,320 Cr. On account of higher export realisation which was up 8 % YoY, increased localisation of raw materials and favourable currency benefit, material cost was down 260 bps QoQ. Management indicated cost cutting initiatives are likely to compensate higher discounting in the market. The company maintained their volume guidance of flat growth in the domestic market for FY14E with exports also likely to be flattish. Management maintained its guidance of flat growth in the domestic market for FY14E, with export volumes also likely to be flattish. Growth during the festive season of Navratri and Onam has improved by 5-6% YoY. Diesel accounted for 30% of overall volumes in Q2FY14 as against 34% in Q1FY14. Rural sales accounted for 32-33% of the volumes in Q2FY14, with the growth in H1FY14 pegged at 24%. Discount/vehicle increased by 30% QoQ to Rs. 17,500 mainly on account of higher discounts on petrol vehicle and the full impact of diesel vehicle discounting started in the month of June’13. At the same time, management indicated that the indirect imports are likely to cost more as they need to be compensated for depreciation in Rupee in Q3FY14 with a quarter lag; vendor imports in Q2FY14 reflected Q1FY14 rates of Rs. 55/$. And higher export realisation which stood at Rs. 61/$ v/s Rs. 55/$ in Q1FY14. This was slightly negated by 60 bps increase in other expenses on account of higher royalty payment as well as higher discounts which stood at Rs. 17,500/ vehicle v/s 13,500/ vehicle. At the same time, employee cost increased by Rs. 77 Cr majority attributed to one-time impact of hikes/incentives to employees, as a result, EBITDA margins improved by a whopping 1.2 % QoQ to 12.6 %. EBITDA for the quarter came in at Rs. 1,320. The positive surprise on EBITDA front percolated down to PAT level which came in Rs. 670 Cr. As looking at the Bank of Japan's balance sheet expansion with weak current account and with a big outbound in FDI and with an unwind of a massive post GFC Capital inflows, it is expected that japanese yen could be around 106 to $1 in Q1 and around 109 in Q2 and a 112 in Q3 and in Q4 of around 115, this means if yen touches 120 to $1 then Maruti will zoom. as conviction in Abenomics deepens and local househols, domestic institutions and foreign real money investors embark on a structural shift in portfolio allocations, it will benefit both local equities and USD/JPY making YEN to zoom.

Outlook and Valuation:

Maruti Suzuki is India’s largest passenger vehicle company with a market share close to 40% which offers 15 models with over 200 variants across the Industry segments like Passenger cars, Utility vehicles and Vans. The contribution of automotive sector in the gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to double, reaching a turnover worth US$ 145 billion in 2016, with special focus on export of small cars, MUVs, two & three wheelers and auto components, as per the Automotive Mission Plan (AMP) 2006-2016. The favourable Indian market conditions are acting as a catalyst for luxury and premium carmakers, which are receiving impetus from new launches. India is emerging as an export hub for sports utility vehicles (SUVs). Global automobile majors are looking to leverage India's cost-competitive manufacturing practices and are assessing opportunities to export SUVs to Europe, South Africa and Southeast Asia too. India is also one of the key markets for hybrid and electric medium heavy- duty trucks and buses. Ford Motor Company is staking big on Asia-Pacific (APAC) markets, especially India and China. Ford will export Figo and EcoSport models out of India. The Indian plants would support the market here, as well as other global markets. The production of passenger vehicles in India was recorded at 3.23 million in 2012-13 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13 per cent during 2012-2021, as per data published by Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA). Maruti Suzuki India Ltd’s Japanese Yen-denominated imported content (direct + indirect) stands at 18 % of net sales. The company has targeted a savings of 150-200 bps every year by increasing localisation and thereby, bringing the imported content down to 14-15 % of net sales by FY15E end. For FY14, it is assumed that a cross-currency rate of INR/JPY to be at 0.62 v/s 0.66 in FY13. As a result of both the above reasons, it is expected that the gross margins can improve by 250 bps YoY in FY14E. The company can witness earnings CAGR of 20.90 % with strong EBITDA margins of 11-12 % over the next few quarters with the increased discounts being offset by a stable currency. Maruti is the best play on the recovery in the macroeconomic situation and is expected a rebound in volumes in FY15E by around 13.00 %. At current price of Rs. 1768.40, the stock is trading at P/E of 18.81 x on FY14E estimates & 16.19 x on FY15E estimates. In my view Maruti Suzuki India Ltd could post EPS of Rs. 94 for FY14E & Rs. 109.20 for FY15E and one can ACCUMULATE the stock and would advise investors to use declines in the stock to buy with a long term view with a target price of Rs. 1850.00 for Medium to Long term investment.
