IGL / GGL / MGL
Delhi type mandates in Gujarat and Greater Mumbai a material volume driver. Court decisions remain event based triggers though Govt. is pushing for same
IGL / GGL / MGL
Future Volume OutlookIGL• Recent policy drivers in Delhi/NCR like even odd rule and new outlets (opened 72 in CY16 YTD),
mandatory conversion of public vehicles to CNG and introduction of new buses can lead to overallvolume growth pickup from near stagnation in FY15 to 6‐7% yoy in FY17 and ~10% in FY18.CUGL/MNGL likely to grow at 10‐15%. IGL has bid in new areas offered under PNGB bidding whilegreen corridor/highway outlets can be an area of growth in northern markets. Some possibility ofGurgaon being handed back at least partially. Potential of 2‐3mmscmd.
GGL• GGL has witnessed lower volumes due to general slowdown in Gujarat and adverse gas to oil
economics. However with reversal of the same and expansion in new areas like Bhavnagar, Jamnagar,Navasari etc growth could recover to 10‐15% yoy. Thane GA and Dadra & NH are promising areaswhere there is significant potential of 2‐2.5mmscmd combined. Have bid under PNGRB rounds forareas like Dahej (1.5mmscmd), Amreli, Dahod etc. These areas will add materially by decade end.
MGL• Expect 6‐8% yoy growth in core Mumbai (GA‐1) and GA‐2 (suburbs) with 3,000‐4,000 private vehicle
conversion/month. Raigarh can add 2mmscmd cumulatively in 8‐10years. Material volume addition tobe seen starting decade end. GA‐2 also has good potential. Have bid in PNGRB rounds, but not tooaggressive
IGL / GGL / MGL
Margins and CapexIGL• Gross margin to remain robust under declining gas price scenario, both domestic gas as well as LNG
which would last for a year. RSP cuts have been lower than expected. However increase in opex due to higher share of OMC based outlets, midnight discounts and minimum wage hike would offset partially. Expect Rs.5.1‐5.3 EBITDA/scm in FY17‐18 versus Rs.5.7 in FY15. Normal capex of ~Rs.2bn. However Rs.2.5bn reported to have spent on 72 new outlets (7mn kg/day total capacity) opened in CY16 YTD.
GGL• EBITDA/scm bottomed out in Q2FY16 at Rs.2.6. Q4FY16 to see sharp jump to Rs.4/scm+ and H1FY17
likely to see further uptick as gas costs bottom out. Expect FY17/18 margins at Rs.4.5‐5/scm. GGL aims to target a margin where internal cash generation can take care of capex and dividend. Capex of Rs.5bn annually going forward within Gujarat. Rs.1bn annually to be spent in Thane/D&NH for next 5years.
MGL• Strong gross margin of Rs.9.5/scm in Q1FY16 and EBITDA/scm of Rs.6. Higher costs may impact
margins, but opex profile not similar to IGL. Has displayed margin accretive retail pricing during reduction in domestic gas price. I/CPNG exposure less hence APM/PMT costing to dominate. Pricing may be sticky during recovery in domestic gas pricing due to local issues. Normal capex of Rs.1.5‐2bn annually. Raigarh to entail Rs.5bn cumulatively.

MGL – IPO DynamicsThe divestment process includes conversion of Maharashtra Govt’s CCD in the company to equitywhich would raise its stake to 10% from 0.5% as of now. This would raise paid up share capitalfrom Rs.893mn currently to Rs.988mn. Post this, 25% will be up for listing on the exchanges forpublic. GAIL‐BG’s shareholding would reduce to 32.5% each.

We build in a valuation of Rs.46.5bn market cap for MGL which implies 12.5x FY18 PE. We estimate0%/7%/7% volume growth under our base case and EBITDA/scm of Rs.5.8/5.9/6 for FY16/17/18.Hence, we project FY18 EPS at Rs.37.8/sh post accounting for the dilution. RoE of 21% at thisvaluation looks reasonably attractive while 50%+ dividend payout would mean an yield of ~4%.
