Sesa Goa incorporated in 1954, is India's largest producer & exporter of iron ore in the private sector and it currently accounts for 1.5 % of world trade in iron ore & is amongst lowest cost iron ore mining company. Its mines are located in the Goa, Karnataka & Orissa. It exported approx. 5 mn tons of iron ore, fines and lumps to Japan, China, Europe.  In fiscal 2010, Sesa Goa produced 21.4 million tonnes and sold 20.5 million tonnes of iron ore. In April 2007, Anil Agarwal – Vedanta Resources acquired a controlling stake of 51 % in Sesa Goa from Mitsui & Co, Japan, for US$ 981 million.   As of 31 March 2010, SESAGOA own or have the rights to reserves & resources consisting of 275 million tonnes of iron ore.

Budget 2011-12 - Impact Analysis

Budget proposes higher export duty on iron ore: The Union Budget 2011-12 has proposed raising the export duty on iron ore to ad volerm 20% on lumps and fines. Currently, lumps are taxed at 15%, while fines are taxed at 5% on ad volerm basis. Higher export duty to impact Sesa Goa's profitability: Sesa Goa generates 90% of its net sales from iron ore exports. Hence, the Budget proposal would result in an increase in the company's export duty expenses. In line with this, I have estimated the export duty expenses for Sesa Goa to be Rs.1,903 Cr for FY2012. EBITDA estimate for FY2012 stands by 26.1% to Rs. 4,008 Cr.

Outlook and valuation:

 I expect Sesa Goa's iron ore sales volume growth to remain muted in FY2012. Nevertheless, the spot iron ore prices have risen steeply during the past three months on the back of improved demand from China. Hence, going forward, it is believed that rising expenses will be more than offset by the rising iron ore prices. However, lumpiness in iron ore demand, huge swings in the iron ore prices, logistical issues in Goa and stricter regulations imposed by the government are the key concerns for Sesa Goa in the near-to medium term. At current levels, the Sesa stock trades at 3.0x FY2011E and 2.7x FY2012E EV/EBITDA. On P/BV basis, the stock is available at 1.8x FY2011 and 1.5x FY2012 estimates. I continue to value Sesa Goa at 3.5x FY2012 EV/EBITDA, but at target price of Rs. 280. I recommend Accumulate on the stock.

UPDATE - SESA GOA announced on 22nd March  2011, that it has acquired the assets of upcoming Steel Plant Unit of BELLARY STEEL & ALLOYS LTD (BSAL) for an all Cash deal at Rs. 220 Crore.

BSAL was in process of setting up a 0.5 mtpa Steel plant at Bellary. The properties of the under construction plant has free hold land of 700 acres, buliding & structures, plant & machinery and other assets of steel plant. The asset is transfered on As is where is basis as of 22 March 2011.

Sesa Goa is currently assessing the best way for commissioning the steel plant at the earliest. The plant is located at Karnataka having close proximity of national high way, railway & source of water.

I maintain my accumulation status on SESAGOA with the price target of Rs. 280 in short term. For long term my target is of Rs.350. As I always say do respect the market and keep a strict stop loss of 8 % on your every purchase.

Renewable energy much better than Nuclear disaster

Japan's nuclear reactor blasts fearing melt down

JAPAN met with an unforeseen disaster making its nuclear reactors blast due to earth quakes, this has raised the question about dependency of countries like India on Nuclear power plants for the need of power supply's. Many environmentalist world wide are questioning on the safety of reactors/radiation and its effects on human life's. Even our D-street have concerns and there is a school of thought about India would never be able to complete its nuclear projects in next 15 - 20 years due to many political pressures and hence will not able to satisfy the power demands. 

  I gave a thought on it and here are some of the facts which somewhat we already know & some in my opinion I want to draw your attention to –

1    Maharashtra power demand is 16,000 Mw currently.

2    State owned Mahagenco provides 13,500 Mw, which includes 1,500 Mw purchased from outside.

3    Demand in maharashtra is expected to grow to 23,800 Mw.

4    Mahagenco to provide additional 5,000 Mw.

Now to meet these demands Jaitapur Nuclear Power Project was proposed & similar other nuclear power projects were proposed. As Japan met with a nuclear disaster, Indian govt. have started facing the political pressure to drop these nuclear projects concerning public safety. And the only option to meet the ever growing power demands is Renewable Energy which are cost effective & more environments friendly.

Let’s compare the Capital costs of these projects –

1    Jaitapur Nuclear Power Project is of 9,900 Mw in 938 hectares of total land, which will have 6 reactors of 1,650 Mw capacities each, to be built in collaboration of Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd and AREVA a French company. These European Pressurised Reactors (EPR’s) will cost Rs. 20 Cr/Mw or Rs. 8.00 – Rs.9.00 / Unit.

2    Pressurized heavy water reactor with indigenous technology costs Rs. 8 Cr/Mw. Needs about 1 to 4 Square Kilometers of land.

3    Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission to generate 1,000 Mw by 2013 & 20 Gw by 2022 cost to be Rs. 15 Cr/Mw and needs 6.4 Acres of land. (1Gw = 1,000Mw)

4    Indian Wind Energy has installed capacity of 11,807 Mw.  As per Indian Wind Energy Association the potential of electricity generated by wind in India is about 65,000 Mw. Currently wind energy cost Rs. 5 Cr – Rs. 5.6 Cr/Mw and needs about 0.25 Acres of land for 1Mw.

5    Hydro projects cost Rs. 5.4 Cr – Rs. 6 Cr/Mw, Coal Projects cost Rs. 5 Cr/Mw, Bio mass Gas project cost Rs. 5.5 Cr – Rs. 6 Cr/Mw.

So its makes sense to go towards Renewable Energy, India produces 1.67 lakhs Mw against the demand of 3.70 lakhs Mw by 2017 - 18. The per capita power consumption in our country is at 700 units which is much lower than 11,000 in US & 2,800 units in China.

The Power Mix in India (2010) is - Thermal: 65 %; Hydro: 25 %; Nuclear: 3%; Renewable: 7 %.

The Installed capacity as on 30th November 2010 - Coal is at 89,778.38 Mw; Hydro is at 37,367.40 Mw; Gas is at 17,624.85 Mw; Diesel is at 1,199.75 Mw; Nuclear is at 4,560 Mw; Wind & Solar energy is at 16,786.98 Mw.

This shows that even if the nuclear power projects which contributes 4,560 Mw are not allowed due any reasons we still can manage to mop up our power demands. We can utilise this money by giving subsidies & financing to renewable energies. Looking at the current scenario I think that govt. will have no option rather than to promote alternative energy resources and companies like SUZLON ENERGY will gain from it. NUCLEAR PLANT OR NO NUCLEAR PLANT INDIA WILL SHINE AS IT WAS & AS IT IS……..

Reliance Industries out put is of 1.8 bn cubic feet of gas a day which is equal to 1,25,000 barrels of oil production per day a nearly 40 % of India’s total gas production, all comes from D6. RIL owns 2,7o,000 Sq Kilometers of exploration circles or 28 blocks.

British Petroleum (BP) global oil major has announced an historic deal with India’s largest private sector oil major Reliance Industries to buy RIL’s 30% stake in 23 oil and gas blocks on 21^st February 2011. As per the partnership deal, BP will buy 30% stake in 23 oil & gas production sharing contracts that RIL operates in India, including the producing KG-D6 blocks at $7.2 billion (Rs.44.99/$) Rs. 32400 cr, and will also form 50:50 JV for sourcing and marketing gas in India. This JV is also an attempt to accelerate the creation of infrastructure for receiving, transporting and marketing natural gas in India. RIL will get $7.2bn in 3 trenches - $2 bn as upfront payment, further $2.3 bn on completion of deal & the final payment of $3 bn in October 2011. BP could invest US $20bn in RIL which would go to Reliance Gas Transportation Infrastructure Ltd. This deal is positive for RIL as the combined expertise of both the parties would result into optimisation of producing blocks and enhancing the resources in exploratory blocks. The transaction amount gives a value of Rs. 363/share to the east coast blocks, as BP is expected to incrementally incur its share of capital expenditure into the commercialisation and development of blocks, which have already been factored in for valuation.

Outlook and Valuation

The deal is an earnings & value accretive in the long term, considering the technical expertise BP brings on table. Once the deal goes through, dip in valuation on account of shedding 30% share in east coast blocks will be offset by cash consideration and re-rating of blocks on account of synergy arising out technical expertise of both the proficient parties. This deal will put RIL in a position to be “DEBT FREE”. My view on the stock is of BUY with a price target of Rs. 1,160 when the share price is at Rs. 957.00

Union Budget 2011-12 -

In this budget finance minister proposed the Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) on Special Economic Zones (SEZ) & Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) from 1^st April 2012. LLPs will have to pay MAT at 18.5 % but will be exempted from Dividend Distribution Tax of 17 % on the dividend declared. In LLPs MAT will be known as Alternate Minimum Tax (AMT). AMT will be applicable to LLPs @ 18.5 % AMT will apply to the adjusted income & not on adjusted book profit. AMT credit is available to an LLP for 10 years. The LLPs was used by some promoters of cooperates to save tax on dividends declared by their companies. RIL promoters created 29 LLPs in August 2010 which will own 32.75 % of Reliance Industries. These 29 LLPs collectively earned Rs.750.77 cr as dividend last year saving both MAT & DDT.  But when the new AMT norm becomes affective these LLPs will have to pay tax of Rs.139 cr if the RIL maintains the same dividend rates.

Jain Irrigation Ltd has multi product industrial profile & manufacturers Drip and Sprinkler Irrigation Systems and Components; PVC, Polyethylene (HDPE, MDPE) & Polypropylene Piping Systems; Plastic Sheets (PVC & PC sheets); Dehydrated Onions and Vegetables; Processed Fruits; Tissue Culture, Hybrid & Grafted Plants; Greenhouses, Poly and Shade Houses; Bio-fertilizers; Solar Water Heating Systems and Solar Photovoltaic Appliances (Solar lighting systems) and Bio- energy sources. Company renders consultancy for complete or partial project planning and implementation e.g. Watershed or Wasteland and / or Crop Selection and Rotation.

About Company - It is the market leader in micro irrigation systems (MIS) in India with over 50 % market share. Having been present in this segment for more than 15 years, there is very strong association of the company with MIS in rural India. Its dealer and sales network is also significantly larger than any of its competitors. As a result, Jain Irrigation is expected to retain its market leadership in the future. MIS alone contributes to more than 50% of its revenues and 70% of EBITDA. Due to its large subsidy business, management of working capital cycle has been a key concern for Jain Irrigation and is a risk to its growth. However, the company has now started factoring its receivables, which should help keep working capital cycle in check. JISL is the biggest player and controls over 1/3rd of the market in drip irrigation, second is Netafim from Israel, Finolex Plasson, Premier Irrigation Adritec.

Future scope of business -  So far only about 4.5 mn hectares (ha) has been brought under MIS compared to government target of 18 mn ha by FY12 and addressable area of 70 mn ha. The government subsidies a minimum of 50% of cost of installation and budget allocation to MIS has been in increasing trends. In FY11, central budget allocation was more than doubled to Rs.1000 cr and recently it was accorded “National Mission” status, which assures funding under the government’s 5-year plan. Government funding for MIS is only likely to go up - MIS is a relatively low hanging fruit for the government in its effort to improve farmland productivity. The MIS market in India is at Rs. 2700 - Rs. 3000 cr, 3/4th of which is for drip irrigation which helps to save water & fertilizer. Agriculture consumes 80 % of water in the country & it makes sense to use drip & sprinkler irrigation systems. In February 9th M&M entered into micro irrigation sector by acquiring 38 % stake in 30 year old Nashik based company EPC for around Rs. 43 crore, M&M will give an open offer of additional 20 % stake in EPC on April 6th. 

Valuations and outlook

JISL has plans to raise Rs. 700 cr through QIP to repay its debt, to provide capital to its new NBFC and to support its future growth. Company believes that fund raising would happen in the next 3-4 months, depending upon the financial market conditions. I have not considered any equity dilution in my estimates. Company declared 1 bonus DVR SHARES (JISLDVREQ DVR shares ) on every 20  Equity Shares held. DVR with 10 % voting rights (click here for DVRs). I therefore recommend Buy and accumulate Jain Irrigation at every dip. My views are positive on the business of JISL and their future prospects on the back of untapped potential of MIS, agricultural business model and strong domestic presence. At present with the drip irrigation market is growing 40 % annually, stock is trading at 22.3x at FY12E EPS as against its historical one - year forward trading band of 10 x 32x. I recommend BUY on the stock with the target of Rs. 350.00

 LARSEN & TOUBRO – L&T is India’s largest conglomerate. One of the largest company diversified into Power, Nuclear, Hydrocarbons, Cements, Critical Engineering’s, Procurement, Construction (EPC) businesses. It also operates & handles roads, railways metros, bridges, ports, airports infrastructure projects. Company is also into power Transmission & Distribution (T&D) , equipment manufacturing (switch gears), Finance & IT software.

  

I initiate my coverage on L&T with Buy, on the back of its robust core businesses, infrastructure opportunities and potential for value unlocking in its subsidiaries. Core business would drive earnings, as it has robust order book and good revenue visibility. Subsidiaries in IT Services, Financials and Infra would be valuation triggers. The infra-led growth would also be backed by growing portfolio and geographical reach via JVs/acquisitions. Good revenue visibility. L&T is geared to meet growth guidance of 20% in sales in FY11, given its robust order book of Rs. 1.1trn (3.1x FY10 standalone sales; up 26% yoy), orders (Rs. 494bn; up 8% yoy in 9MFY11), and pick up in execution. JVs/acquisitions to expand portfolio and market reach. Increased presence in key infra segments (thermal, nuclear power, oil & gas, ports), power equipment manufacturing and geographies would complement core competency in EPC. Value unlocking in subsidiaries. Revival in IT business and high growth in financial services and infra development would be

catalysts for valuations upside. L&T’s financial services arm is likely to get listed by FY12, followed by other subsidiaries.

Valuation -  

My long term target price is Rs. 2,040 –core business at Rs. 1,564 based on 22x FY12e EPS; subsidiaries and other businesses at Rs. 476. The only key risks are lagging in execution of orders and slow revival in industrial Capex and exports.

Whats the News?

Punj Lloyd has bagged three orders (two international and one domestic) aggregating to Rs. 645cr. The first order is worth Rs. 323 Cr from petroleum company Occidental Mukhaizna, Oman involves EPC of a new water treatment plant. The second order for Rs. 271cr is from an Indonesian oil company Pertamina for the construction of three well head platforms and lying of offshore gas pipeline. The third contract from GAIL worth Rs. 51cr is for laying a 112km long pipeline. This is positive for the company as the order inflow for 2QFY2011 was disappointing at Rs. 1,030cr and this order further enhances the revenue visibility, taking the outstanding order book to Rs. 29,171cr (3.2x FY2011E revenue).

The stock is down (50%) over the last 12 months, which I believe has brought it to a superb valuations giving the company’s scale of operations and the opportunities that lie ahead. Against this backdrop, it is expected that the stock will outperform over the medium to long term. Hence, maintain a Buy on the stock with a Target Price of Rs. 117- Rs. 120.

The execution of the Libyan orders was delayed significantly and this has hit the earnings in the last few quarters, as the Libyan orders form 38% of the company’s order book. Work on some of these projects began during Q1FY2011 and in Q2FY2011 the company started booking some revenue related to these projects. The management expects revenue booking to gain momentum in another 6 to 9 months. It is believed that the revenue booking from the Libyan projects during the quarter is a positive sign and provides visibility of a healthy growth in the revenue from the Libyan orders after 2 to 3 quarters as these form 38% of the total order book of the company.

Valuations and outlook - 

At the current market price of Rs. 91.80, the stock is trading at 8.9x FY2012E earning per share (EPS). PLL is present in some of the high-growth sectors (infrastructure, petrochemicals etc), which are expected to receive heavy investment in the coming years. Further, the revenue visibility from the Libyan orders is a good sign and will bring cash for the company. However, the order execution for the company has been slow in recent quarters, which is a cause for concern. Though the losses on account of the Ensus project are over, there might be more cost overruns/liquidated damages in the company’s other projects. Further, the order intake has not been very robust and this could affect the revenue growth. Stock could be bought with the price target of Rs117 (11.45x FY2012 estimates), factoring in the delay in the execution of the Libyan orders. The key risks to this call are further slowdown in order execution and cost overruns/liquidated damages in the company’s projects. In Q2FY2011 PLL secured orders to the tune of Rs1,164 Cr, which takes its order book to Rs. 25,470 crore—2.5x FY2010 revenues. 

You are getting junior L&T at discount to its Book Value of Rs. 107 and at 12x its earnings; fundamentals are strong; 100 % appreciation at least by 2012.

MUNDRA PORT & SEZ : A VALUE BUY

Scrip Code: 532921 / MUNDRAPORT

Mundra Port and Special Economic Zone (MPSEZ) is one of India’s leading private ports with a current cargo handling capacity of 70mt. In addition, the company will install another 65mt of cargo handling capacity in the next 12 months. Moreover, MPSEZ has 24,000 acres of land, of which 16,000 acres have been notified as SEZ land.

Well set to benefit from expected rise in external trade Mundra Port and SEZ’s (MPSEZ) port infrastructure is amongst the best in India, which should help it capitalise on the expected rise in external trade. In the next few years, sharp rise in coal traffic will help MPSEZ post a 35% CAGR in traffic handled at the port over FY10−FY13E, which will lead to a 35% CAGR in its revenues over this period. It is also expect land sale in the SEZ area to pick up, although clarity on the tax treatment for the SEZ remains an overhang. The March ’12 target price stands at Rs 175/sh, which comprises Rs 122/sh for the Mundra port, Rs 34/sh for the SEZ, Rs 10/sh for other port concessions and Rs 8/sh for liquid investments and cash. Potential opportunities for port development in India and international geographies can lead to further value creation. Initiate BUY for MPSEZ. Port capacity will nearly double over next one year: MPSEZ’s port infrastructure is one of the best in India with deep draft, excellent road/rail connectivity, proximity to north India (as against Mumbai-based ports) and a large storage area. Currently, MPSEZ has a handling capacity of 70mn tonnes (mt) with a 15mt single point mooring (SPM), 25mt bulk and 30mt container cargo capacities. It will add another 65mt in the next 12 months—50mt of the integrated coal terminal and a 15mt SPM facility (referred to as SPM-II). We are also building in another 110mt capacity to be added over the next decade. Rise in coal, crude imports to drive near-term traffic growth: MPSEZ will commission its 50mtpa integrated coal terminal in Q4FY11. This will cater to the coal import requirement of Tata Power (for its 4,000MW Mundra UMPP) and Adani Power (4,620MW Mundra power plant). In addition, MPSEZ will handle crude imports to be used for the 9mtpa Guru Gobind Singh refinery (GGSRL), expected to be commissioned in H2FY12. These imports (coal and crude) will account for a sizable portion (39mtpa) of incremental traffic at the port. SEZ land sale to pick up in H2: MPSEZ has 24,000 acres of land, of which 16,000 acres have been notified as SEZ land. In addition, another 8,000 acres of land are in various stages of transfer. While MPSEZ has not seen any sale of SEZ land in H1FY11, It is understood that it is looking to consummate sales of 240 acres in H2FY11. A key risk on the SEZ business is the potential removal of tax concessions for SEZ developers and units under the proposed Direct Tax Code. It has revenue/earnings CAGR of 35 % & 30 % over FY10-FY13E; the Mar ’12 SOTP-based target price stands at Rs 175/sh.  A key upside risk can come from value creation in new port projects that MPSEZ is exploring in India and overseas. Downside risks can emanate from any changes in the tax rules for SEZ developer and units.
