Defensives stable while cyclical declines getting arrested
The I-direct coverage universe is expected to deliver 16.5% revenue growth (excluding oil & gas). This revenue growth is far better than the 4.2% in Q1FY14 and 13.6% YoY in Q4FY14. Though the base effect of Q1FY14 will come into play in Q1FY15E, we feel growth rates have hit the bottom and a gradual recovery is under way for India Inc
On the profitability front, EBITDA margins are expected to improve 70 bps YoY to 20.6% (excluding oil & gas) while QoQ the same is expected to improve 40 bps. Consequently, we expect PAT to grow 23.2% for our coverage universe
On a sectoral basis, the top 5 performing companies (on the basis of PAT growth) come from information technology (two companies), telecom (one company), financials (one company) and automobiles (one company). Hence, the top five companies that top the chart in terms of profitability growth include TCS (~28.1% YoY), Wipro (29.4% YoY), HDFC Bank (22.8% YoY), Tata Motors (138% YoY) & Bharti Airtel (72% YoY)
Conversely, the bottom five performing companies (on the basis of PAT growth) come from metals & mining (two companies), capital goods (one company) and pharma (two companies). Hence, the bottom five includes Hindalco (-29%% YoY), Tata Steel (-32% YoY), Bhel (-36% YoY), Sun Pharma (-6.6% YoY) and Cipla (-39.9% YoY)
Post the favourable outcome of Lok Sabha elections in May 2014, broader markets have rallied 22.8% YTD. We believe valuations have been re-rated on hopes of a reformist government in Delhi. Hence, cyclicals have seen a massive rerating of P/E and P/BV multiples whereas defensives have more or less consolidated at the same levels as a portfolio resetting is under way towards beaten down cyclicals

What we expect our coverage universe to report and emerging trends
The I-direct coverage universe is expected to deliver revenue growth of 16.5% (excluding oil & gas). The revenue growth is far better than that of 4.2% in Q1FY14 and 13.6% YoY in Q4FY14. Though the base effect of Q1FY14 will come into play in Q1FY15E, we believe growth rates have hit the bottom and a gradual recovery is under way for India Inc
From a sectoral perspective, apart from export oriented sectors like IT, pharma and auto will continue to post strong revenue growth in the range of 18.7%, 23.4% and 21.7%, respectively. However, in domestic based sectors, we expect strong revenue growth recovery in a lot of sectors like power, metals and oil& gas, which are expected to grow 17.3%, 16.2% and 12.9%, respectively
Our estimates for Q1FY15E reiterate our stance that revenue growth for non-Sensex companies have bottomed out and a gradual recovery will follow, going ahead. We expect non-Sensex companies’ revenue growth for Q1FY15E to be at 9% YoY

Revenues (Ex-Oil& Gas, BFSI) Growth (%)
Source: Company, ICICIdirect.com Research
EBITDA margins are expected to improve 70 bps YoY to 20.6% (excluding oil & gas) while QoQ the same is expected to improve 40 bps. The key reason is the 26.3% improvement in absolute EBITDA for defensives (price hikes across products) and 10% YoY for cyclicals (slight improvement in operating leverage and low base of Q1FY14)
On a sectoral basis, autos, cement and capital goods are expected to witness a margin expansion in Q1FY15E to the tune of 13.7 bps, 11 bps and 10 bps, respectively. On the other hand, pharma, metals and infrastructure may see a decline of 2 bps, 9 bps and 10 bps, respectively

On the profitability front, the I-direct coverage universe is likely to deliver PAT growth (excluding oil & gas) of 23.2% YoY. Robust growth is more of a function of a low base of Q1FY14 wherein PAT declined 9% YoY. If we include oil & gas, then PAT growth further increases to 37% for Q1FY15E
From a sectoral perspective, PAT for the auto sector is expected to grow 54%. Key reason for the same is 138% YoY growth for Tata Motors, which alone will contribute 45% of the auto sector PAT. Other key PAT gainers would be pharma (17% YoY), IT (22% YoY), Cement(24% YoY)

Defensives: Strong show continues
(Sector composition: Consumer disc., IT, FMCG, Pharma) Key highlights:
• Defensives will maintain their consistency on an absolute basis as well on relative basis to cyclicals in terms of financial performance over the last 12-16 quarters. Q1FY15E will manifests growth based on both volume growth as well as price hikes (FMCG sector has seen a price led growth of 6% YoY while the same for cement 2.3% YoY)
• In the defensives space, pharma and IT are expected to post 23.4% and 18.7% YoY revenue growth, respectively. However, IT sector revenues are expected to remain flattish QoQ owing to exchange rate declining 3% QoQ. FMCG sector will witness revenue growth of 12% YoY which will be on back of 6% YoY volume and price growth.
• On an overall basis, revenue growth for defensives is expected to grow 17.9% YoY Q1FY15E vs. 13.7% YoY growth in Q1FY14
• We expect the absolute EBITDA to grow 19.8% YoY as we built in a 37 bps margin expansion for the space mainly led by gains emanating from volume and price hike affected across the sector under the defensive space.
• On the profitability front, defensives are expected to deliver 17.9% YoY growth vs. 16% rise in Q1FY14 and ~31% QoQ growth. On an individual basis, IT and pharma may stand out as they are expected to deliver 17% and 17.9% YoY growth, respectively

Cyclicals: Decline arrested but recovery to be gradual
(Sector composition: Auto, cement, capital goods, power, infrastructure, real estate, oil & gas and telecom) Key Highlights:
• We expect the space to deliver revenue growth of 15.6% YoY, which will be the best growth rate recorded over Q1FY13-Q1FY15E
• On an individual basis, power, metals, auto, cement and real estate are expected to record good revenue growth of 17.3%, 24.1%, 21.7%, 13.2 and 10%, respectively. On the negative side, the capital goods space is expected to record negative growth of 6.6% YoY. The key reason for the decline in capital goods would be 10% revenue decline for Bhel in Q1FY15E
• EBITDA margins for cyclicals are expected at 15.4%, a gain of 220 bps YoY. The gains in margins come from a 351 bps and 179 bps margin expansion in the oil & gas and auto space, respectively
• Infrastructure and real estate are expected to see the highest margin erosion YoY by 10 bps and 5 bps, respectively
• Interest costs are expected to be higher by 13.9% YoY in Q1FY15E. The highest interest cost jump may be seen in the metals (63% YoY), real estate (29% YoY) and auto space (21.9% YoY). As a result, the interest to EBITDA ratio is expected to be 14.8% in Q1FY15E, lower by 273 bps YoY

Apparel
Revenue growth continues, with Page Industries leading the pack!
We expect our apparel coverage universe to report 14.8% YoY revenue growth in Q1FY15E. While all companies continue to grow in the 8-13% range, Page Industries (Page) is likely to maintain its strong growth momentum and lead the pack with 29.3% YoY growth in revenues to | 393.3 crore. While Kewal Kiran Clothing (KKCL) and Rupa & Company (Rupa) are likely to grow at 10-13%, we do not expect a pick-up in Lovable Lingerie’s (Lovable) sales (up 8.2% YoY) led by a tepid management commentary. Vardhman Textiles (Vardhman) is also likely to witness a slowdown in the pace of growth in demand as China’s yarn imports have started to come down from an average of ~170 million kg/month to ~150 million kg in May 2014. We, thereby, expect Vardhman’s revenues to grow 12.2% YoY.
Operating margin to fall led by input price pressure (except Page)
With an increase in cotton prices, we expect the operating margin of companies in our coverage to witness pressure. KKCL is likely to witness a dip of 130 bps in the operating margin to 22.1% owing to a negative operating leverage. While the revenue growth is likely to be relatively lower, the ad spends continue to remain high thereby impacting the operational efficiency. Lovable is also likely to witness operational pressure owing to higher ad spends (down 70 bps to 19.5%). Rupa may also succumb to increased input prices and witness a margin dip of 20 bps to 13.9%. We expect Vardhman to report a 100 bps dip in operating margin to 20.6% on the back of higher cotton prices and also lower exports. In contrast, Page is likely to witness a margin expansion of 60 bps to 21.5% on the back of price hikes taken.
On the PAT front, we expect KKCL, Lovable and Vardhman to report YoY de-growth owing to weaker sales growth and likely margin pressure. However, Page and Rupa are likely to witness PAT growth of 24.8% and 6.0%, respectively.
Macro trends in sector
Domestic cotton prices have increased 8.1% YoY to | 117/kg (average price: April–June 2014). Similarly, average cotton yarn prices also increased 5.2% YoY to | 217/kg. However, sequentially, yarn prices have come down 2.6% as demand from China has come down. If cotton prices continue to remain high and yarn prices soften owing to lower demand, domestic spinners could witness margin pressure, going forward.
Based on the data provided by Office of Textiles and Apparel (Otexa), India’s apparel and non-apparel exports to the US during January and May 2014 increased 5.6% and 6.1% YoY to $1562 million and $1333 million, respectively.

Auto and auto ancillary
Improved sentiment, signs of bottoming out visible!
The quarter saw a continued improvement in consumer sentiment, especially in the 2W segment where the impact of excise duty cuts has been visible. Overall auto volumes grew ~13% YoY led mainly by two-wheeler volumes, which grew 14.4% QoQ, led primarily by HMSI (that grew ~34% YoY). PV sales were flat YoY despite a strong performance from MSIL, which grew 12.6% YoY. The CV segment continued to witness volume declines (~16% YoY drop) but with M&HCV volumes showing improvement, there are strong signs of the cycle bottoming out. Ancillary players have benefitted from an improvement in demand and gained from operating leverage benefits. Tyre makers have benefitted from lower raw material prices and are expected to post strong earnings growth. We expect I-direct OEM, ancillary universe topline to grow at YoY ~24%, ~12%, respectively, though Ex-Tata Motors OEM topline is likely to grow at ~8% YoY. Tata Motors DVR and Wabco India are our top picks.
Better volume pick-up, steady RM prices, excise duty cuts augur well
Typically, Q1 is sequentially a weaker quarter in terms of volumes. However, this year Q1 has started on a strong note with ~15% YoY and ~1% QoQ increase in overall volumes. This coupled with the steady trend of raw material prices and extension of excise duty cuts till December 2014 augurs well for the industry coming off a weak year, For the I-direct OEM/ancillary universe, EBITDA margins are likely to improve ~180 bps, ~190 bps YoY to 15.4%, 13.4%, respectively. However, ex-Tata Motors, OEM margins are likely to improve ~40 bps YoY to 12.9%.
Profitability better on higher volumes, operating leverage
With an improvement in volumes, profitability is likely to improve as impact of operating leverage kicks in, especially for ancillary players. For the OEM, ancillary universe, we expect profit to grow at ~59%, ~49%, respectively. However, ex-Tata Motors, the OEM universe is likely to witness growth of ~11% YoY while ex-Motherson Sumi, the ancillary universe is likely to witness ~21% YoY growth in PAT.

Exhibit 17: Company specific view -OEM Company RemarksAshok Leyland
The topline is expected to de-grow ~23% QoQ as overall volumes have declined ~23%QoQ to ~19935 units. M&HCV volumes have declined ~21% QoQ, to ~15000 unitswhile the LCV segment has declined ~29% QoQ to ~5,000 units. We expect EBIDTAmargins to decline ~260 bps QoQ to 3.4%. Topline, PAT (loss) estimated to be ~| 2330 crore, - | 50 crore, respectively
Bajaj Auto BAL has witnessed a mixed bag of a quarter with domestic volumes lagging industryvolumes and growing ~2% YoY. Exports have made a strong comeback (~11% QoQgrowth) after a dull last quarter. Two-wheeler volumes at ~874,900 units were ~6%QoQ higher while 3-W segment volumes at ~113,700 units are likely to be higher ~3%QoQ. EBITDA margins are expected to remain flat QoQ at ~19%. Topline, PAT areexpected at ~| 5140 crore, ~| 800 crore, respectively
Eicher Motors
Eicher’s RE business continues to remain strong and has grown ~15% QoQ to ~74,000units. The VECV business has also been outperforming the industry and grown ~16%QoQ to ~11,350 units. EBIDTA margins, on a consolidated basis, are likely to trendhigher and improve ~120 bps QoQ to 12.7% with the standalone business posting~23% margins while VECV (inferred) margins are likely to improve ~160 bps to 7.5%.Standalone topline, PAT is likely to be | 744 crore, | 132 crore while consolidatedtopline, PAT is expected at | 2,200 crore, | 147 crore, respectively
Escorts The core tractor business is likely to witness a seasonally strong quarter in volumeterms with ~15% QoQ increase (but ~9% YoY decline as volumes remain muted in itsmajor markets of North and Central India) to ~17850 units. The overall topline is likelyto increase ~13% QoQ to ~| 1100 crore. Other businesses have remained underpressure and dampened improvement in overall margins to 5.9%. PAT is, thus, expectedto be ~| 37 crore
Hero Moto HMCL's volumes have been better especially in April and May as the impact of areduction in excise duty helped improve volumes to ~1.7 million units, ~10% YoY and~8% QoQ higher. The motorcycle segment rose ~8% QoQ to ~1.5 million units whilethe scooter segment has grown ~3% QoQ to ~195,170 units. EBITDA margins areexpected to improve ~70 bps QoQ to 14.4% on lower other expenses. Topline and PATare, thus, expected at ~| 7000 crore and ~| 580 crore, respectively
M&M In this quarter, M&M's automotive segment witnessed ~18% QoQ decline in volumes to112,615 units, led by the UV segment, which saw ~16% drop in a seasonally weakquarter to ~52200 units. However, the tractor segment saw ~35% QoQ growth to~74500 units owing to seasonality. EBITDA margins are, subsequently, likely toimprove 400 bps QoQ to 12.2% (comparison is not meaningful owing to the impact ofMTBL merger in Q4FY14). Topline and PAT are expected at ~| 10,000 crore and | 880crore, respectively
Maruti Suzuki
Maruti's performance has been better YoY but lower than the seasonally strong lastquarter as demand for newly launched "Celerio" has aided growth coupled with animprovement in traction in its petrol dominated portfolio. Volumes have de-grown ~8%QoQ to ~300,000 units. Margins are likely to improve ~100 bps QoQ to 11.3%. Toplineand PAT are likely to be ~| 11,400 crore and ~| 660 crore, respectively
Tata Motors
JLR is likely to witness another strong quarter with wholesale volumes likely to rise~30% YoY to ~117,800 units (June numbers estimated). Jaguar is likely to grow ~5%YoY and post volumes of ~19,600 units while LR is likely to post ~37% YoY growth to~98,300 units due to strong growth in new RR sport. JLR is likely to post topline of~£5.3 billion while margins are likely to decline 16.9% (~30 bps QoQ lower).Consequently, PAT is likely to be £453 million. Domestic sales are likely to improve~11% QoQ to ~116,630 units. With the M&HCV segment showing signs of bottomingout with de-growth ~2% QoQ to ~32,800 units, we expect standalone businessmargins to improve ~480 bps QoQ to -1.2%. Dividend from JLR would boost otherincome and lead to a profit of ~| 530 crore. Consolidated topline, PAT are expected tocome in at ~| 63,900 crore, ~| 4100 crore, respectively

We expect decent volume growth (~10% QoQ), primarily on the back of better 2-Wdemand. Replacement segment is also likely to maintain demand growth while invertersales are expected to remain strong considering delayed monsoon, higher powerdemand owing to elections. Overall, we expect an increase in sales of ~10% QoQ to ~|980 crore. Average lead prices have declined ~2.5% QoQ in INR terms to ~| 131/kgand with no major pricing action taken in the quarter, EBITDA margins are likely toimprove 70 bps QoQ to 16.2%. PAT is estimated at ~| 100 crore
Apollo Tyres
The consolidated topline is expected to grow ~6% QoQ aided by volume growth in thedomestic business. Consolidated EBITDA margins are estimated to remain flat QoQ at14.3%. Domestic margins are likely to improve ~230 bps QoQ on decline in rubberprices. Performance of the European subsidiary Vredestein too is likely to be better onprofitability front. Consolidated topline and PAT are expected at ~| 3450 crore and ~|264 crore, respectively
Balkrishna Industries
The volume performance at ~40,000 MT is likely to be ~15% higher YoY. Sales thoughis expected to rise ~20% YoY owing to rupee depreciation YoY. ASPs in dollar terms arelikley to witness ~2% decline due to price cuts taken due to competitive pressures. Weexpect margins to improve ~40 bps to 26.2% as natural rubber prices remainfavourable. Topline and reported PAT are estimated at ~| 975 and ~|134 crore,respectively
Bosch Bosch's performance has been resilient to the slowdown in the auto industry due to adiversified product portfolio across sub-segments. We expect the topline to grow ~3%QoQ to ~| 2525 crore with strong seasonal growth in the tractor segment aidinggrowth. EBIDTA margins are likely to improve 30 bps QoQ to 16.6%. Subsequently, PATis expected at ~| 303 crore
Exide We expect sales revenues to de-grow ~5% QoQ to ~| 1530 crore as industrial batterybusiness continues to remain weak and offsets the improvement in auto volumes.Favourable raw material prices are likely to aid margins and we expect ~40 bpsimprovevement to 14%. PAT is expected at ~| 133 crore
JK Tyre On the topline front, we expect improvement in the truck bus segment coupled withincreasing radialization to aid volumes and expect showing ~3% QoQ improvement.With rubber prices continuing to remain favourable, margins are likely to remain on theuptrend and are likely to improve ~170 bps to 13.2%. Consolidated topline, PAT isestimated at ~| 1960 crore, ~| 86 crore, respectively
Motherson Sumi
We expect the consolidated topline to remain flat QoQ but ~20% higher YoY as thedomestic business growth has been constrained by low OEM demand in the PVsegment. We expect performance of SMP, SMR to remain robust and expect SMR, SMPto post adjusted EBITDA margins of 10.4%, 5%, respectively. MSSL's margins are likelyto decline ~50 bps QoQ to 23.1%.

Aviation
Passenger traffic may improve 3.5% YoY led by peak season demand
We expect domestic passenger traffic to grow 3.2% YoY vs. growth of 1.0% last year and de-growth of 1.4% QoQ last quarter. Available seat kilometre (ASKM) is expected to increase 2-3% YoY. However, with a pick-up in demand, we expect domestic load factors to improve 130 bps YoY to 77.8% from 76.5% reported last year. Further, yield per passenger is also expected to increase 5-7% YoY, (up 2-3% QoQ). We expect domestic market share of Jet Airways to remain flat YoY (down 150 bps QoQ) to 22.6% from 22.7% last year. SpiceJet’s domestic market share is also likely to decline 70 bps YoY to 18.9% YoY. For our I-direct coverage universe, this quarter is likely to end with average revenue growth of 12.6% YoY (6.0% QoQ). Further, we expect I-direct aviation universe to report a net loss of | 414 crore vs. loss of | 298.4 crore reported last year and loss of | 2787.5 crore reported last quarter.
Margin may improve QoQ on ATF price fall, strengthening of rupee
Average fuel prices during the quarter have fallen 5.4% QoQ (up 11.0% YoY) during April-June 2014 led by strengthening of the rupee against the dollar (up 3.2% QoQ, down 7.7% YoY) despite higher global crude oil prices (up 1.8% QoQ, 6.7% YoY). Average ATF prices for the quarter stood at | 75,603/kl (| 74,794/kl as of July 1, 2014). Other dollar linked operating cost like lease rentals, maintenance cost & salaries have also fallen due to strengthening of rupee against dollar. Further, average ticket prices have also increased 3% QoQ. Taking this into account, we expect operating profit of | 31.7 crore (OPM 0.5%) vs. operating loss of | 748.6 crore (OPM -11.4%) last quarter.

Company RemarksJet Airways (Jet + JetLite)
Domestic passenger traffic may grow ~3.2% YoY led by peak season demand(down 5.2% YoY). International pax traffic may see strong traction in revenue due toincrease in international segment. Margins may improve QoQ led by 5.4% QoQ fall inATF prices and rupee appreciation
Spicejet Revenues are expected to report flat growth with QoQ improvement led by peakseason demand. Operating losses may narrow sharply QoQ due to a reduction inATF prices coupled with strengthening of the rupee against the dollar (up 3.2% QoQ)

Banking and Financial Institutions Credit traction to be sluggish; steady to marginally positive NIMs…
For our coverage universe (16 banks), we expect credit growth to reach 18% YoY to | 3487094 crore, led by private banks growth. As regards margins, owing to a drop in CD rates (down ~60 bps), wholesale banks such as Yes Bank and IndusInd are likely to benefit by ~10 bps QoQ. Yes Bank’s margin can further be higher owing to ~| 3000 crore raised via QIP. For the rest, NIMs may stay flat to positive QoQ. The aggregate NII for our banking coverage universe is expected to increase by a modest 11% YoY to | 37674 crore with private banks outperforming.
NPA concerns not abating, fall in G-sec yields can support earnings
NPA concerns may persist. We estimate GNPA will increase 7% QoQ to | 118740 crore for PSU banks while for private (excluding J&K), it is estimated to rise 4.6% QoQ to | 10401 crore. In case of J&K Bank, a large agri account worth ~| 650 is expected to slip into NPA in Q1.
The 10 Year G-sec yields had declined ~30 bps from highs before closing at 8.74% (down ~5 bps QoQ) at the end of Q1. This will enable banks, especially PSUs, to book treasury gains and reduce provisioning cost. Among our universe; Dena Bank, PNB, Axis Bank and J&K Bank seem to be major beneficiaries. PAT growth for our coverage universe is estimated at 5.1% YoY with PSU banks continuing with a PAT decline of 5.7% YoY. However, PAT growth of private banks is estimated to remain strong at 21% YoY.

Profit growth may moderate to 4.6% YoY and improve to 6% QoQ led by lower provisionexpectation. NPA additions expected to stay arrested adding just | 100 crore QoQ.Credit and deposit growth seen at 21% YoY. Lower cost of funds to help maintainmargin around 3%
Bank of India Asset quality is expected to be relatively stable aided by NPA sale and slow Q1 withprofit growing 13% QoQ to | 629 crore. Credit growth may still be strong at 21% YoYwith deposit growth of 14.3%. Ten year G-sec yield correction may turn beneficial withhigher trading profit
Dena Bank Profits are not comparable on YoY or QoQ basis as both Q4FY14 and Q1FY14 includedfew one-offs (Tax reversal, huge trading gains, etc). For Q1FY15E, we have estimatedasset quality will remain stable with GNPA increase of mere | 26 crore QoQ to | 2642crore. Healthy credit growth of18.2% YoY to | 76778 crore will support NII growth of9.6% YoY and 7.9% QoQ to | 662.8 crore
Punjab National Bank
PAT of | 1083 crore is expected, down 15% YoY vs. 28.7% YoY decline witnessed inQ4FY14. Decline in G-sec yields during the quarter should support other income andalso help lower MTM provisioning as it has high AFS portfolio of | 41439 crore withhigher duration of 4.6 years. Credit growth may remain below industry at 12.8% YoY(flat sequentially)
State Bank of India
Expect credit growth of 17% YoY and deposit growth of 15.5% YoY, leading to NIIgrowth of 9% YoY. Margins may be maintained at 3.17%. Net addition to GNPA seen at| 5000-6000 crore. We expect total provisions to decline QoQ | 3881 crore. PAT isseen growing 2.7% YoY to | 33.3 billion
Syndicate Bank
Credit growth of 16.4% YoY (flat QoQ) to | 173882 crore is expected. PAT traction of9.7% YoY to | 496 crore is estimated, supported by lower provisions on fall in G-Secyields and 8% YoY increase in other income to | 318 crore. Asset quality to remainstable with GNPA at ~2.8%. Margins are expected to remain steady at 2.8%
Axis Bank Credit growth may be stable around 17% YoY. We expect deposit growth to improve to17.8% YoY. Strong profitability growth may sustain at 22% YoY to | 1723 croresupported by 20% YoY NII growth. Trading gains can surprise positively. Asset qualitymay remain stable
City Union Bank
We estimate modest credit growth at 8% YoY to | 16620 crore (up by | 523 crore QoQ)in sync with management guidance. Asset quality is expected to improve as the bank islikely to sell ~| 100 crore of assets to ARC. We estimate GNPA will decline by | 23crore QoQ to | 270 crore. PAT growth may stay modest at 6.1% YoY to | 95.8 crore
DCB Credit growth may remain healthy at 23.5% YoY to | 7992 crore, supporting 23.7% YoYNII growth to | 102.8 crore. Asset quality may remain stable with GNPA increase ofmere | 10 crore QoQ to | 148.5 crore.

HDFC Bank All-round steady performance is expected to continue. NII growth may remain healthyat 15.3% YoY on the back of strong credit growth of 24.8% YoY to | 322695 crore (upby | 19695 crore QoQ). Asset quality may be stable with GNPA addition of mere | 120crore QoQ to | 3108.9 crore
Federal Bank Initial signs of pick-up in credit growth to be witnessed in Q1FY15E. We expect creditgrowth of 6% YoY to | 43739 crore against 1.5% YoY de-growth in Q4FY14. We expectasset quality to remain stable with absolute GNPA increase of mere | 54 crore QoQ to |1142 crore. PAT is not comparable on YoY or QoQ basis as both Q1FY14 and Q4FY14involved one-offs.

Asset quality may remain stable withGNPA estimated to rise by | 21.6 crore QoQ to | 454 crore. Overall, steady resultsexpected with PAT growth of 16.2% YoY to | 133.5 crore
Yes Bank A decline of ~50-60 bps in wholesale funding rates should lead to ~10 bps QoQimprovement in NIMs to 3.1%. Margins may be further higher owing to | 3000 croreraised via QIP in June 2014.

Ordering activity muted in Q1FY15E but hopes hinge on H2FY15E
Formation of the new government at the Centre has definitely revived the business and investor confidence, thereby pinning hopes of a capex cycle recovery on H2FY15E. However, given the hangover of the last couple of years of a weak investment climate, order inflows have been muted for majority of the companies under our coverage. L&T has consistently reported order inflows across segments and geographies. Even in Q1FY15E, L&T managed to report order wins of | 17900 crore. Power EPC players like Bhel, BGR Energy and Thermax failed to report any major order wins. In the T&D EPC space, KEC managed to bag orders to the tune of | 1646 crore.
Pain of interest costs seems to be abating
Interest costs may show the lowest growth of 1% YoY in Q1FY15E, which is the lowest in the last 12 quarters. Interest costs for coverage companies for Q1FY15E are expected to be at | 465 crore vs. | 460 crore in Q1FY14. The reason for a muted rise is owing to an improvement in the receivables situation post the restructuring programme of SEBs and high base of Q1FY14 (interest costs were up 21% YoY in Q1FY14). Similarly, interest as percent of EBITDA is expected at 22.7% in Q1FY15E vs. 22.1% in Q1FY14. Individually, BGR and Kalpataru are expected to see a decline in interest costs to the tune of 4% and 9%, respectively. On the other hand, KEC and Jyoti Structures are expected to witness 18% and 26% rise in interest costs, respectively.
Financial performance mixed: L&T, AIA and Kalpataru to perform well
Among large caps, L&T may continue to exhibit a relatively strong financial performance (12.5% revenue growth, 9.6% EBITDA margins and 11% PAT growth) while Bhel may continue to face a decline in Q1FY15E as well (Decline of 10% YoY in revenues and 36% decline in PAT owing to high negative operating leverage impacting margins). In the midcap space, AIA may be the star performer (capacity addition may drive 17.5% revenue growth coupled with margin expansion of 290 bps and PAT growth of 45% YoY) while Thermax is expected to be back on the growth path post a series of quarterly declines (18% revenue and 28% PAT growth). On an overall basis, revenue for our coverage universe may decline ~6.6% with PAT declining 8% YoY (mainly due to a decline in PAT for Bhel, BGR and Jyoti Structures).

Exhibit 26: Company specific view
Company RemarksBGR Energy With a strong execution backlog, we expect a higher share of NTPC’s bulk order
execution in revenues, which is expected to grow 7% YoY to | 882 crore. Highershare of EPC orders may lead to a margin decline of 230 bps to 10.6%. This isexpected to lead to a PAT decline of 20% to | 30 crore
Thermax Thermax is expected to report strong revenues of | 1015 crore, up 17.6%, owing to alower base of Q1FY14. The big ticket order announcement was missing during thequarter. Margins are expected to remain stable YoY at 9.35%. Increased executionmay, therefore, lead to 28% YoY jump in PAT at ~| 65 crore
Jyoti Structures JSL failed to report any order win during Q1FY15E. We expect revenues to grow 7.3%YoY to | 763 crore. Higher execution of low margin international order will lead tomargin decline of 20 bps to 9.7%. High interest costs, up 26% YoY, may lead to adecline of 35% YoY in PAT to | 10.6 crore for Q1FY15E
KEC International Order wins during Q1FY15E stood at | 1646 crore. Revenues are expected to grow6% YoY to | 1856 crore. Margins are expected to improve significantly by 140 bpsYoY to 6.6%. Interest costs may be elevated at | 68 crore but margin gains will helpKEC post a PAT of | 23 crore in Q1FY15E vs. loss of ~| 9 crore in Q1FY14
Kalpataru Power Transmission
We expect KPTL to post revenue growth of ~6% YoY to | 942 crore. Increasedexecution of international orders may lead to a margin decline of 19 bps to 10.1% inQ1FY15E. However, ~9% YoY decline in interest costs may help PAT to grow to | 40crore, up 18% YoY
Larsen & Toubro Revenues and EBITDA are expected to grow 12.5% and 13.2%, respectively, forQ1FY15E. EBITDA margins are expected to go up 60 bps on a reported basis to 9.5%(excludes hydrocarbon business). Consequently, we expect L&T to report a PAT of |739 crore (adjusted PAT of | 665 crore in Q1FY14), up 11% YoY
Bhel Order inflows have been muted for Q1FY15E. Weak execution may persist, leading to11% YoY revenue decline to | 5807 crore. Negative operating leverage may continueto put pressure on margins, which are expected at 6.5% for Q1FY15E. Hence, PAT isexpected to decline 36% YoY to | 297 crore. Key thing to watch is a) movement ofexecution of private sector orders and b) resumption of ordering in the powersegment
Greaves Cotton 3W auto volumes are expected to be flattish YoY whereas pain in the infrastructuresegment may continue to pressure revenues. Hence, we expect revenues to grow 4%to | 429 crore. Margins are expected to be flattish at 12%. PAT is expected to growmarginally by 3% YoY to | 32 crore
AIA Engineering We expect volume growth at 13% YoY at ~50400 tonnes for Q1FY15E as newlycommissioned capacity of 60000 tonnes in FY14 will exhibit its impact. Coupled withthis, a realisation of | 110000/tonne may lead to 17.5% YoY revenue growth inQ1FY15E. We have built in EBITDA margins of 24%, up 290 bps YoY. Consequently,we expect PAT of | 93 crore, up 44.9% YoY

Cement
Demand improvement visible during quarter…
All-India cement sales volumes have shown some visible signs of growth during April and May with YoY production growth of 6.7% and 8.7%, respectively. Our channel checks suggest good demand during June as well along with delayed monsoon resulting in a better quarter in terms of demand. After sluggish production growth of 3% YoY during FY14, early signs of demand improvement in FY15 kept hopes alive, hinging on the new government. For Q1FY15E, we expect companies under our coverage universe to register volume growth of 11.6% YoY (led by expansion based growth in some of the companies) vs. de-growth of 0.06% YoY last year and 6.59% YoY growth last quarter.
…prices also increase along with demand
Companies increased cement prices across all regions during the quarter. On a YoY basis, the increase in prices may be higher in western and northern regions while the southern region has seen a sharp improvement in price sequentially after the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh. The quarter also saw the resumption of supply from Binani Cement plant in the Northern region, which kept prices under pressure in the region. They had already hiked prices by | 40-50/bag during the previous quarter. We expect companies under our coverage to report an increase in realisation by ~2.3% YoY and ~3% QoQ
I-direct universe to report topline growth of ~13% YoY pushed by new capacities of some companies
Aggregate revenue of our cement coverage universe is expected to grow 13.2% YoY where volume growth is expected at 11.6% YoY with cement realisation growth of 2.3%. Among our coverage universe, we expect JK Cement and JK Lakshmi to report revenue growth of ~29% YoY supported by strong volume growth along with capacity expansion in case of JK Lakshmi. The average EBITDA margin of our coverage is expected to increase ~110 bps YoY (up ~220 bps QoQ) to 20.3% in Q1FY15E due to higher realisation during the quarter. The bottomline of our universe is also expected to increase ~23% YoY to | 1983.3 crore.
EBITDA/tonne to increase led by better realisation
With higher realisation, we expect EBITDA/tonne to increase 6.2% YoY and 9.1% QoQ of our coverage universe to | 884/tonne. Costs like power & fuel as well as freight costs are expected to increase YoY but higher realisation will be enough to swallow the increased cost.

Construction & Infrastructure
Change of guard at the Centre, finally see light at the end of the tunnel…
‘Policy paralysis’ has been a curse for the infrastructure sector over the past couple of years. However, with the formation of a stable government at the Centre and its 10-year agenda to focus on infrastructure, the tide is finally turning for the tormented sector. Modification of the regulatory framework, speeding up clearances to eliminate execution hurdles and new project awards to revive moribund capex cycle are clearly on top of the agenda for the new government. The restructuring of premium, amendments in the Model Concession Agreement (MCA), setting up of Infra Trust Funds and dovish tone of the RBI towards interest rate are a few activities seen in Q1FY15, which lend us confidence there will be greater rewards in the long run for infrastructure players. These measures will lead to better liquidity and asset valuations, making the de-leveraging exercise more attractive, aiding companies to strengthen their balance sheet. Nonetheless, the impact is some time away. Hence, we believe Q1FY15 may remain dismal yet again for the infrastructure sector.
Dismal order inflows on back of election code of conduct…
The announced order inflow for our coverage universe remained muted in Q1FY15. With NHAI awarding still to see traction, other segments also continued to remain disappointing on the awarding front primarily due to election uncertainty in the first half of Q1FY15.
Construction universe – expect muted growth of 5.5% YoY in Q1FY15
The revenue growth of the construction coverage universe is expected to grow 5.5% YoY as execution remains muted across segments due to stretched working capital of contractors and client side delays in payment. While Supreme’s revenues are expected to grow at 13.6%, we expect SIL to post 3.0% YoY growth in topline.
Infrastructure universe – revenues to remain flat in Q1FY15
We expect revenues to remain flat at | 5571 crore for our infrastructure universe as superior growth of Sadbhav (17.9% YoY due to stronger execution in construction business) and muted growth by GVK (3.3% YoY) is likely to be offset by 2.3% YoY decline by JAL (given the subdued performance of construction and cement segment) and 5.3% YoY decline of IRB (due to muted construction revenue).
Highly leveraged balanced sheet impacting bottomline…
Owing to an increase in interest expense, we expect our construction coverage universe to report a sharp decline of 20.4% YoY in the bottomline. Interest, as percentage of revenues, continues to remain high at 6.5% in Q1 FY15E vs. 6.2% seen in Q1FY14.
The infrastructure coverage universe is expected to report a loss mainly due to GVK’s bottomline (higher losses are mainly due to higher interest cost and additional depreciation for MIAL, which commenced T2 operation in Q4FY14) and JAL’s bottomline due to higher interest and depreciation expenses.

July 8, 2014 Consumer Discretionary
Inflationary pressure plays spoilsport for discretionary companies
Consumer discretionary (CD) companies are expected to record ~13% YoY growth during Q1FY15E with volume growth of ~8% as frequent price hikes due to commodity inflation took a toll on overall sales. However, an extended summer helped companies like Symphony, V-Guard and Pidilite record overall sales growth of 19%, 13% and 16% YoY, respectively. Bajaj Electricals’ sales growth of 15% YoY would largely be driven by a sharp growth in the E&P segment to the tune of 36% YoY. Paint companies are expected to record revenue growth of 10-12% YoY led by ~6-8% volume growth led by decorative paints (intact demand from Tier II and Tier III cities) while volume growth in the industrial segment is expected to grow at a lower pace due to moderate GDP growth. Besides, packaging major Essel Propack is expected to record ~14% YoY growth driven by a recovery in demand from Europe.
Higher raw material cost to hit margin of paint companies
We believe higher raw material prices coupled with the rupee being at a lower level against the dollar has forced companies to take price hikes to the tune of ~4-5% during Q1FY15E. However, for paint and adhesive companies, the EBITDA margin is expected to decline in the range of ~50-140 bps YoY due to a rise in titanium di-oxide (TiO2) prices and monomers prices coupled with adverse currency movement (rupee depreciated ~7% YoY). Essel Propack, on the other hand, is expected to record EBITDA margin expansion of ~25 bps YoY led by improved utilisation of the Poland plant. Under electrical goods manufacturer, BEL is expected to record an EBITDA margin of 6% (vs. 2.6% during Q1FY14) on account of execution of high margin projects. Symphony is expected to record EBITDA margin of 27.5% (up ~48 bps YoY) due to higher operating leverage supported by extended summer and recovery in export market.
Bottomline growth of ~15% YoY supported by selective counters
Companies under our coverage are expected to record bottomline growth of 15% YoY led by selective counters. We expect BEL to record PAT of | 26.5 crore after a loss of | 11 crore recorded in Q4FY14 supported by better realisation from the E&P segment. Essel Propack is expected to record PAT growth of 24% YoY to | 29 crore led by recovery in European region. On the flip side, we expect paint and adhesive companies to record a muted performance with PAT growth at ~2-14% mainly due to pressure on the margin front.

Exhibit 34: Company specific view for Q1FY15E
RemarksAsian Paints We expect the company's overall revenue to grow 12% YoY to | 3155 crore
contributed by moderate ~8% volume growth and ~4% price hikes inQ1FY15E. The EBITDA margin is expected to decline 80 bps YoY to 15.7%due to higher raw material cost (the company benefited from lower rawmaterial price during Q1FY14). PAT is likely to record growth of 14% YoY to~| 314 crore
Bajaj Electricals We expect BEL to post ~15% YoY revenue growth at ~ | 901 crore inQ1FY15E, led by ~35% YoY growth in the E&P segment to | 256 crore and~11% YoY growth in the lighting segments to | 174 crore. We expect theconsumer durable segment to grow at ~8% YoY to | 470 crore. The EBITDAmargin is expected to increase 347 bps YoY at 6% due to execution of highermargin projects. The company is expected to record PAT of ~| 26 crore
Essel Propack We expect the company to report ~14% YoY consolidated revenue growth at~| 549 crore in Q1FY15E, led by ~14% YoY growth in AMESA and Europeregion to | 260 crore and | 74 crore, respectively. We expect higheroperating leverage in its Poland plant to help in driving EBITDA margin by 30bps YoY to 17.7%. PAT is likely to increase ~24% YoY to ~| 29 crore
Havells India We expect Havells to post ~14% YoY standalone revenue growth at ~|1196 crore in Q1FY15E, led by ~16% YoY growth in cable and switchgearsegment to | 471 crore and | 320 crore, respectively. We believe the EBITDAmargin will improve 30 bps YoY at 13%. PAT is likely to increase 13% YoY to~| 107 crore supported by a rise in other income
Kansai Nerolac We expect sales growth of 10% YoY to | 872 crore during Q1FY15E largelycontributed by volume growth of ~6% coupled with 4% price hike. Thevolume growth would largely be driven by the decorative segment, whichcontributes ~55% in overall volume. We believe the EBITDA margin willdecline ~50 bps YoY due to higher raw material cost. As a result, PAT islikely to remain flat at | 62.1 crore
Pidilite Industries We expect Pidilite to post Q1FY15E consolidated revenue growth of ~16%YoY at | 1305 crore led by ~18% YoY growth in the consumer & bazaarsegment and 13% YoY growth in the industrial product segment. The EBITDAmargin is expected to decline 140 bps YoY at 19%, on account of a decline inthe gross margin. PAT is likely to increase ~6% YoY to ~| 171 crore
Symphony We expect Symphony to record ~19% YoY growth in revenue to ~| 132crore during Q4FY14E led by ~14% YoY volume growth. Domestic sales areexpected to increase ~19% YoY while export volumes are expected toincrease 30% YoY. We expect the EBITDA margin to improve by 50 bps YoYto 27.5%.

Revenue growth to witness mixed trend
With the limited ability to take price hikes following sustained high food inflation we expect modest revenue growth of ~13% for our coverage universe. Sales growth may witness a mixed trend with a change in sales mix (VST Industries, HUL) and price increases (Marico) aiding higher growth in Q1FY15E. A fairly equal mix (6-8% of volume and 5-6% price growth) of price and volume growth may drive revenue growth for others (Dabur and Colgate). We estimate Nestlé’s revenue growth will remain the lowest (~4% YoY) within our coverage given the company’s premium product portfolio. Sales growth for companies (Dabur, ITC, and Marico) would also get a trigger from new launches on their part in Q1FY15E and H2FY14.
Margin expansion to remain limited
With sales growth remaining modest and price hikes taken largely to the extent of higher input cost pressure, we expect margin expansion to remain limited during the quarter. We estimate margin expansion of 20-30 bps for ITC and HUL led by a change in the sales mix and ~70 bps for Dabur led by price increases. We expect the highest margin expansion for VST Industries (~640 bps YoY) led by a favourable change in the sales mix of its portfolio. However, we expect Colgate, Marico, Nestlé and Tata Global Beverages to witness a decline in margins largely led by a higher raw material cost impact and sustained higher marketing spends given the increasing competition in their segments.
Higher raw material and marketing spends play spoilsport
With raw material costs maintaining their uptrend since H2FY14 along with limited ability of companies to pass it on through prices, we expect input cost pressure to increase 20-30 bps YoY across our coverage universe. The highest input cost inflation has been witnessed in copra and coconut oil (~135% higher YoY), which we believe would be the key reason for Marico’s lower margin (~120 bps lower YoY to 15.9%) in Q1FY15. Further, not so benign palm oil (+5% YoY) and milk prices (+7% YoY) would continue to stress margins of personal product (HUL, Dabur, Marico, ITC) and food (Nestlé) companies in Q1FY15E. Apart from raw material pressures, higher marketing spends, especially in oral care, personal products and beverages segment (following increasing competitive intensity) would restrict margin expansion for Colgate, HUL & Tata Global Beverages.

Exhibit 36: Company specific view (FMCG) Company RemarksColgate We expect ~8% volume growth and ~6% price growth to drive revenues at ~14%.
We expect margins to witness contraction of ~30 bps YoY to 18.9% on the back ofsustained higher raw material (+120 bps YoY) & marketing expenses (following newlaunches). Savings in other expenses and employee cost (-15 bps YoY) would,however, provide some relief to margins
Dabur Both domestic (~65% of revenues) and international businesses may witness modestrevenue growth of ~13% and ~16% YoY, respectively, in Q1FY15E. Domestic revenuegrowth would be led by higher growth in oral care (~13%), foods (~17%), healthsupplements (~13%), home care (~20%), OTC & ethicals (~15%) and skin care(~11%). Other segments like hair care, digestives, skin care and retail are expected towitness modest growth of 9-11%. Margins are estimated to improve ~70 bps YoY to15.2% led largely by savings in other expenses
HUL Volume growth for HUL is expected to remain lower at ~4%. We expect a recovery inrevenues for personal products (~15% growth in Q1FY15E) following a lower base inQ1FY14 (sales of Fair & Lovely were severely impacted) and higher number of newlaunches during the quarter. Soaps & detergents, foods and beverages may witnessmodest growth at ~12% each. Margins are expected to be a tad higher by ~30 bpsYoY to 16.2% led largely by savings in operating expenses
ITC We estimate healthy growth in cigarettes and FMCG (others) at ~12% and ~15% YoY,respectively, to drive ITC's topline growth. Hotels, agri and paperboards revenuegrowth are expected to remain modest at ~6%, ~9% and ~7%, respectively. Marginsare expected to witness a marginal increase of ~20 bps YoY to 37.9% following thehigher burden of raw material costs (+330 bps YoY to 45.6%). However, led by theprice increases in cigarettes (YoY) and increasing contribution of premium products inFMCG sales (especially foods), margins may receive some support and, hence, see amoderate increase
Jyothy Lab Revenues may be driven by modest growth in both soaps & detergents (11.5% YoY)and home care (10.7%). We believe the re-launch of Exo and Pril would be keycontributors to S&D growth. Led by higher incidence of raw material costs by ~70 bpsYoY (following continued high inflation and inability to pass through prices due toslowing demand scenario) and operating expenses being higher by ~100 bps YoY,margins may remain flat at 15.2%. In spite of modest growth in sales and marginsremaining same, PAT growth may be aided by savings in interest cost of ~| 15 crore
Marico Topline growth may be driven by ~20% growth in domestic revenues and ~17%growth in international business. Domestic revenue growth may be largely price led(~15% YoY) following a relentless increase in copra and coconut oil prices (keyinputs). International business growth may be boosted by a revival in Marico'sBangladesh & MENA operations (~65% of international revenues). Despite highergrowth, increase in input costs, sustained higher marketing expenses and higher otherexpenses may pull down margins by ~120 bps YoY to 15.9%
Nestlé India With continued high inflation and no significant uptrend in urban demand, we expectNestlé’s revenue growth to remain modest led largely by price increases. We estimatemuted growth of ~3% & ~5% in chocolates and milk & milk products with tad highergrowth of ~6% & ~7% in prepared dishes and beverages, respectively. Led bycontinued cost pressure on raw materials (especially milk) & higher marketing spends,we estimate ~80 bps YoY dip in margins to 21.1%
Tata Global Beverages
Overall sales growth may be led by higher growth in India (11.2%) with growth ininternational markets remaining modest (9.6%). International business growth may beaided by higher currency impact YoY. On the margins front, we expect a moderation of~160 bps YoY to 9.8% following higher marketing spends (+280 bps YoY to 18.8%) torevive growth, especially in international markets
VST Industries
Change in sales mix (higher contribution of 64 mm at ~53% vs. ~30% YoY) would aidboth volume and revenue growth at ~1% and ~29%, respectively. Led by thechanging mix, margins may also witness a significant increase of ~640 bps YoY to28.9%. Higher margins would, thereby, drive robust earnings growth

Healthcare
Consolidated revenues likely to grow at ~23% YoY
Companies under I-direct Healthcare coverage are expected to post growth of 23.4% YoY to | 26522 crore to be driven mainly by the US and EU. US sales are likely to grow 37% YoY to | 7815 crore on the back of launch of new product launches, incremental traction from legacy products and ~6% depreciation of the rupee vis-à-vis US$ (average basis). New product launches during the quarter were gLunesta (Insomnia), gZemplar (Thyroid treatment) and gNiaspan (CVS). Along with these products, the companies continued to sell gCymbalta (CNS), gDepakote (CNS), gRapamune (Immunosuppressant), gPrevacid (GI), gAvelox (anti-infective), gCaduet (CVS) and gMicardis (CVS). EU sales are likely to increase 94% YoY to | 1740.3 crore on account of consolidation of Actavis Europe business by Aurobindo Pharma. Excluding Actavis, like-to-like EU and overall sales are likely to grow 18% and 20%, respectively. On the domestic front, things seem to be improving slowly but surely. Overall domestic formulations are likely to grow ~14% YoY. Among players, Aurobindo, Cadila, Indoco, Ipca Labs, Sun Pharma and Lupin are expected to do well on the back of strong growth from the exports market, in general, and the US, in particular. On the other hand, companies such as Glenmark and Unichem are likely to be laggards on account of lack of new product launches in the US market and lower growth in domestic formulations.
EBITDA to grow ~21% YoY
We expect the EBITDA of the I-direct coverage to grow 20.8% YoY to | 6542.1 crore. EBITDA margins are likely to decline ~50 bps to 24.7% as most players increased their R&D spend. A slower recovery in the high margin domestic formulations business is another reason for the decline in overall margins.
Like to like net profit to grow 19% YoY
The I-direct coverage universe is expected to post net profit growth of 366% to | 4025.5 crore on a lower base (Sun’s provision towards Protonix liability in Q1FY14). On a like-to-like basis, the net profit universe is expected to grow 19% YoY.

Exhibit 38: Company specific view (Healthcare) Company RemarksApollo Hospitals
Standalone sales are likely to grow at 17% YoY driven by 26% growth in the pharmacybusiness and 13% growth in healthcare service business. We expect Apollo to add ~30pharmacy stores during the quarter. We expect EBITDA margins to decline ~110 bps to15.2% on the back of commissioning of two new hospitals at Nellore (200 beds) andNashik (125 beds) during the quarter
Aurobindo Pharma
Revenues are expected to grow ~74.7% YoY on the back of 75% growth in the US (drivenby gCymbalta and injectable products) and consolidation of Actavis’ European operations.We expect | 680 crore sales from Actavis with negative EBITDA margins of 3.5%. On alower base, EBITDA margins may improve 380 bps to 21.7%
Biocon Revenues are likely to grow ~16% YoY on the back of 22% growth in the researchservices business, 15% growth in the biopharma business (ex-branded) and 18% growthin branded formulations. EBITDA margins are likely to improve 230 bps to ~24% due tohigher growth from the domestic branded business and improvement in research servicesmargins
Cadila Healthcare
Revenues are expected to grow ~22% YoY on the back of 60% growth in the USbusiness. However, sales from India and EU are likely post marginal growth of 12% and10%, respectively. The launch of gPrevacid, gDepakote and gRapamune in H2FY14coupled with supply of authorised generic for AbbVie products are likely to drive USgrowth. EBITDA margins are likely to improve ~100 bps to 18.5% on the back of strongUS traction
Cipla Despite healthy growth of 23.8% in exports & 15% in domestic business, revenues mayincrease only 14% YoY due to 70% de-growth in other operating income (OOI). De-growthin OOI was due to higher base as Cipla received milestone payment from Meda in Q1FY14.EBITDA margins may decline 1040 bps due to consolidation of Cipla Medpro & higherR&D & other operating costs
Divi's Laboratories
Revenues are likely to grow 22% YoY driven by growth in both APIs and custom synthesisbusiness. EBITDA margins are likely to improve 140 bps to 39.5% on the back of highercapacity utilisation at the DSN SEZ facility. Despite an improvement in margins, the netprofit is likely to witness only 5% growth due to higher base of Q1FY14 on account offorex gains
Dr Reddy's Revenues are expected to increase ~17% YoY driven by 30% growth in the USformulation business and 25% growth in RoW markets. Overall global generic andpharmaceutical service and active ingredients (PSAI) businesses are likely post 21.2% and2% growth, respectively. The growth is expected to be led by new launches such asgLunesta, gCymbalta, gZemplar and gAntara and higher revenues from limited competitioninjectable products. EBITDA margins are expected to improve 170 bps to 22%

Revenues are expected to increase ~14% YoY on the back of 18% growth in the lifescience ingredients (LSI) segment and 8% growth in the pharmaceutical segment. Theprice hikes in Niacinamide products and improved capacity utilisation of Symtatfacility will drive the growth in LSI segment while pharma segment is expected topost lower growth due to price erosions in its key generic products
Lupin Revenues are likely to grow 23% YoY driven by 34% growth in the US, 25% growth inRoW markets and 10% growth in the domestic formulations. The growth in the USmarket may be on the back of new product launches such as gNiaspan, gActos,gCipro and gCymbalta. EBITDA margins are expected to increase 65 bps to 25%.Growth in net profit would be restricted to 13% due to higher base of Q1FY14, whichincluded forex gains

Hotels
Higher room inventory to keep growth under check
I-direct hotel coverage universe is expected to report revenue growth of 6.3% YoY to | 931.9 crore in Q1FY15 (v/s 4.3% YoY growth in last quarter) led by higher growth in revenues of Hotel Leela due to addition of rooms in Chennai. Foreign Tourist Arrivals (FTAs) reported YoY growth of 10.6% during the quarter compared to just 2.3% YoY growth in Q1FY14. However, higher room inventory with marginal improvement in occupancies kept average room rate (ARR) flat on YoY basis during the quarter. Average occupancy levels at business destinations remained higher compared to leisure destination during the quarter due to seasonality with improvement of 100-200 bps across destinations.
Operating margins to improve marginally
I-direct hotel universe’s margins are expected to improve marginally YoY with improved operational efficiency. We expect I-direct hotel universe operating margins of 16% for Q1FY15E (up 200 bps YoY) while on QoQ basis margins are expected to decline ~970 bps. Indian hotels, EIH and TajGVK are expected to report EBITDA margins improvement of 50 to 150 bps while Hotel Leela is expected to report higher margin improvement on the back of increased revenue from its newest launched Chennai property.
I-direct universe expected to report net loss of | 112.4 crore
Companies under I-direct coverage are expected to report loss of ~| 112 crore in Q1FY15E v/s net loss of | 129.6 crore in Q1FY14. Net loss in previous quarter for the companies under coverage was at | 381.2 crore due to exceptional loss reported by Indian Hotels. Under our coverage, we expect Indian Hotels (standalone) to report net profit of ~| 11.5 crore while companies like Hotel Leela would report losses on account of higher interest and depreciation costs. Profitability of EIH and TajGVK is expected to improve compared to last year due to last year’s low base effect.
Select leisure destinations to drive growth backed by higher FTAs
The average occupancy levels remained higher at business destinations compared to leisure destinations during the quarter due to seasonality. But still improvement in occupancy levels was higher at leisure destinations compared to business destinations due to higher FTA growth (10.6% YoY) during the quarter. In business destinations, Mumbai registered higher occupancy compared to previous year, while almost all leisure destinations registered higher occupancy levels as well as higher ARRs during the quarter compared to previous year.

Information Technology
Seasonally strong quarter but rupee could be a spoiler…
We expect IT companies to commence Q1FY15E on a positive note post the Q4FY14 lull, which was impacted by program cancellations due to security disruptions in the key US market. Tier-I IT companies could likely report average dollar revenue growth of 3% QoQ vs. 1.8% in Q4 and 2.5% in Q1FY14. Within Tier-I, TCS (5% QoQ) and HCLT (3.8%) are expected to lead, again, while Infosys (2.3%) and Wipro (1%) could be soft. However, rupee revenues could be flat QoQ as a stronger rupee could offset dollar growth. Recall, inter-quarter, the rupee averaged 59.8 vs. 61.75 in Q4, appreciation of 3.2% QoQ. Though Indian vendors continue to benefit from rising outsourcing spends in Europe, the US could be soft owing to slower deal ramp-ups and elongated sales cycles. Though the demand environment continues to be optimistic, material rupee appreciation remains a key risk to our estimates and stock prices.
Multiple factors (rupee, wage hikes, and visa) to impact margins
Rupee appreciation (3.2% QoQ) coupled with wage hikes, visa costs and higher fresher intake could create margin headwinds in Q1. Among tier-I players, we expect margins to decline 230 bps for Infosys (wage hike, visa, rupee), 118 bps for HCL (reinvestments, rupee), 245 bps for TCS (wage hike, rupee, one-time depreciation charge offset by lower investments) and 103 bps for Wipro (one-month wage hike impact, visa, rupee).
Growth polarised in midcaps as Cyient, MindTree set to outperform
Within midcaps, we expect Cyient (7.2%) and MindTree (5.2%) to outperform their peers; Tech Mahindra, KPIT (3.2%, 3%) could be stable while NIIT Tech, eClerx and Persistent Systems (1.7%, 1% and -0.5%) could be soft. Broad based growth across all BUs coupled with ~$4 million incremental contribution from Softential could drive Cyient’s growth while a pick-up in the hi-tech vertical could aid MindTree. Seasonal weakness in IP revenues coupled with a push-out of some services revenue to Q2 could impact Persistent’s growth in Q1. Broadly, EBITDA margins could decline significantly (range from -347 to -96 bps) with the exception of NIIT Tech (up 18 bps).

Exhibit 43: Company specific view Company Remarks
Cyient (erstwhile Infotech Enterprises)
We expect $, | revenues to grow 7.2%, 3.9% QoQ to $ 103.4 million, | 618 crore,respectively, led by ~$4 million contribution from Softential and broad based growthacross all business units (BU). EBITDA margins could decline 347 bps QoQ to 14.6%,led by increased net hiring, annual wage hikes, and currency appreciation. Commentaryon growth across various BU's coupled with margin trajectory could be of investorinterest
eClerx We expect $ revenues to grow 1% QoQ to $35.9 million while | revenues to decline1.1% QoQ to | 214.7 crore, led by continued impact of client specific issues in bothsales & marketing (largest customer) and cable (consolidation in top cable customers)business. Deal flow from emerging clients (non-top 5) could help partially offset theweakness in these top accounts. EBITDA margins could decline 332 bps QoQ to 39.5%led by double digit wage hikes (11%), salary increases across several levels andcurrency impact. Investor concerns: Potential revenue weakness in FY15E due to topclient corporate restructuring and ramp-up delays led by consolidation in top cablecustomers, rising attrition
Firstsource Solutions
Expected revenues to decline 2.5% QoQ to | 781.2 crore led by base effect – Q4 saw astronger collections business – and impact of customer rationalization. EBITDA margins could decline 92 bps QoQ to 11.5% led by slower revenue growth, wage hike andabsence of the positive impact from collections business in Q4. FY15E growth outlook(particularly healthcare, telecom vertical), margin trajectory could be of investor interest
HCL Tech We expect $, | revenues to grow 3.8% ($ 1,412 million), 1.2% (| 8,446 crore) QoQ ledby continued momentum in IMS (6% QoQ) and helped by demand recovery in coresoftware (2.4% QoQ). EBIT margins may decline 118 bps QoQ to 23.5% led by rupeeheadwinds and business reinvestments. Investor interest: TCV deal signing during thequarter, core software revenue growth momentum and margin outlook
Infosys US$ revenues could grow 2.3% QoQ to $2,141 million led by demand uptick and largedeal ramp-ups. Rupee revenues could decline 0.6% QoQ to | 12,802 crore led by ~3%rupee appreciation relative to the dollar during the quarter. EBIT margins may decline230 bps QoQ to 23.2% led by wage hikes, visa costs and currency appreciation partiallyoffset by costs rationalisation. Investor interest: strategic direction post managementchange, FY15E revenue guidance update, and initiatives to restrain rising attrition
KPIT Tech Dollar revenues could grow 3% QoQ to $117 million, led by traction in auto businesswhile rupee revenues could come in flat QoQ (| 700 crore). EBITDA margins coulddecline 164 bps QoQ to 14.5% led by wage hikes, visa costs and currency headwinds.SAP business and its margin outlook, M&A pipeline and demand environment acrossBU's could be of investor interest
Mastek We expect $ revenues to grow 0.5% QoQ to $36.1 million, while | revenues coulddecline 2.3% QoQ to | 215.8 crore, led by healthy UK business while US continues towitness elongated sales cycle. Reported EBITDA margins could improve 100 bps QoQto 5% led by revenue growth and normalised impact of client ramp-down in Q4 partiallyoffset by higher product development expenses and increase in net hiring in productbusiness. We believe, two deal wins during the quarter could start contributing fromQ2 and help lift the order back log ($90 million in Q4FY14). Investor interest: orderbacklog, US & UK business outlook, FY15E revenue growth and margin trajectory
MindTree Dollar revenues are expected to grow 5.2% QoQ to $139.7 million while those in rupeescould grow 1.4% QoQ to | 835.6 crore led by demand uptick in hi-tech vertical andlarge deal ramp-ups.

Company specific view
Company RemarksNIIT Ltd Net revenues could grow 4.9% YoY to | 233.1 crore led by CLS business partially offset
by continued weakness in ILS (-15% YoY) and SLS (-2.5%) business. ILS will beimpacted by weaker enrolments while conclusion of government school contractscould impact SLS. Though CLS may grow 30% YoY, rupee appreciation could impactQoQ growth. EBITDA margins could increase 105 bps YoY to 5.7% led by risingcontribution of higher margin private schools and CLS business partially offset bycurrency headwinds. Breakeven in SBS business, demand environment for CLS, growthin ILS enrolments and private school sign-ups may be of investor interest
NIIT Tech Reported $ revenues could grow 1.7% QoQ to $ 96.8 million, while | revenues coulddecline 1.6% QoQ to | 578.8 crore led by AAI contract contribution, offset by weaknessin the US. While services revenue may grow QoQ in dollar terms, reported revenuegrowth could be lower due to f/x. EBITDA margins could improve 18 bps QoQ to 15.3%,led by increased contribution of higher margin AAI business. Order bookings mayexceed $100 million. Margins trajectory for FY15E, large deal ramp-ups and clientmining initiatives could be of investor interest
Persistent Systems

Container volume growth shows marked recovery in major ports
Container volumes at major ports showed an encouraging trend with volumes posting growth of ~3.2% YoY for April-May 2014 against a decline of ~6% for the same period of the previous year. For JNPT and Chennai ports, the recovery has been remarkable as container volume growth has been significantly pronounced at 3.5% and 3% against a decline of 6% and 10%, respectively, for the corresponding periods last year. JNPT recorded 719000 TEUs for April-May 2014 against 695000 TEUs in the same period last year. Similarly, for Chennai port, container volumes stood at 251000 TEUs against 244000 TEUs for the corresponding period last year.
Green shoots visible on cargo volume recovery
As volume recovers, the revenue as well as EBITDA of the I-direct logistics universe is expected to show a marked improvement posting a growth of 8% on YoY basis whereas PAT growth is anticipated at 2%. The total revenue for the universe is expected at | 2693.7 crore against | 2494.2 crore in Q1FY14 while EBITDA is expected at | 508 crore against | 470.2 crore for the corresponding quarter last year. PAT for the quarter is expected at | 374 crore. On the basis of companies, revenue of Concor and Transport Corporation of India is expected to grow ~5% and 6% YoY, respectively. Gateway Distriparks, Gujarat Pipavav and BlueDart Express’ revenues are expected to grow at ~13%, 17% and 14% YoY to | 277.7 crore, | 142.6 crore and | 516.1 crore, respectively. However, on a QoQ basis, for the logistics universe, revenue is expected to decline by ~6% on account of seasonality. EBITDA growth for Concor and BlueDart is expected to remain flattish as freight hikes are difficult to pass on whereas Gateway Distriparks and Gujarat Pipavav are anticipated to post superior EBITDA growth of 19% and 38%, respectively, YoY on account of better CFS and container volumes. On the PAT front, we expect Gateway Distriparks to post growth of 22% due to higher margins in the CFS segment whereas PAT of Gujarat Pipavav is expected to grow 54% YoY due to a lower base. For BlueDart Express, PAT is expected to decline ~22% YoY in the absence of dividend income from subsidiary.

Exhibit 45: Company specific view
Company RemarksContainer Corporation
Container volume of major ports posted growth of ~3% in Q1FY15 vs. a decline of ~6%for the corresponding quarter in FY14. Consequently, we expect volumes to grow nearly10% YoY leading to revenue growth of 5% to | 1252 crore. EBITDA margin may remainunder pressure at 21.5% leading to PAT of | 235 crore
Gateway Distriparks
JNPT Port’s container volume grew 3.5% against decline of ~6% for the correspondingquarter last year. We expect GDL’s CFS and rail volume to post growth of ~13% and 11%, respectively, YoY. Improvement in the CFS segment is expected to improve EBITDAmargin by ~140 bps YoY to 26.4% while PAT is expected at | 36.5 crore
Transport Corporation
TCI’s Q1FY15 revenue is expected to post growth of ~6% YoY to | 505 crore buoyed byrevenue growth in the supply chain and express segment by ~7% YoY. We expectmargin at 7.8%, an improvement of 80 bps YoY as high margin segments show growth.PAT is expected at ~| 15.4 crore for Q1FY15E.
BlueDart We expect revenues to grow 14% YoY but remain flattish sequentially to | 516 crore.EBITDA margin is expected to remain flat QoQ whereas YoY it is expected to contractnearly 100 bps. PAT is expected to decline ~21% YoY to | 31.8 crore in the absence ofdividend income from subsidiaries
Gujarat Pipavav Port
We expect revenues and volumes to grow 14.6% and 10% YoY, respectively, due toupsizing of vessels and dollarisation strategy. As volume picks up, the EBITDA margin isexpected to expand considerably on a YoY basis due to high fixed cost. PAT is expectedat | 54.5 crore in the absence of any extraordinary item

Media
Advertisement revenue to grow at slower pace…
Ad revenues for broadcasters are expected to grow at a relatively lower pace due to lower spends from various categories amid tepid economic recovery. Zee, TV18 (ex-ETV) may report ad revenue growth of 15.5%, 10.4%, respectively, while Sun TV may remain subdued at 4.7% YoY. Benefits from political spends in the quarter were mitigated by lower government related spends due to the model code of conduct. Thus, print players are expected to post consolidated ad growth of 9.6% YoY. However, the overall economic scenario would only improve gradually. Hence, complete ad growth revival would take some time. We expect our media universe to post YoY revenue growth of 13.4% & 1.9% QoQ.
Print still subdued as lower government spend offsets election spend
The benefit of political spends was offset by the absence of the government related spends as the model code of conduct was in force. Moreover, ad spends from education, real estate, etc. remained subdued. Hence, overall ad revenue growth would be subdued for DB Corp, Jagran, HT Media at 10.0%, 9.5%, 9.9% YoY, respectively. However, HT Media may see decent 15.5% YoY growth in the Hindi segment due to better contribution from FMCG sector and improved yields from advertising owing to increased subscription in the UP belt. Newsprint prices have stabilised in the quarter but benefits would only flow, going ahead, due to the three months inventory built-up.
Slower STB seeding, gross billing to be watched…
Phase III & IV digitisation is yet to pick up and the quarter continues to be subdued in terms of subscriber addition. We expect Hathway to seed about 1,20,000 STBs in Q1FY15 on standalone basis. Dish TV is expected to add 260,000 net subscribers. Its ARPU may expand 2.1% QoQ to | 166, as the previous quarter had a lower number of billing days. MSOs are yet to shift towards gross/package wise billing in Phase I and II cities while digitisation is yet to pick up in Phase III and IV cities. We believe any pick up in digitisation can only take place if there are some stringent measures from the government.
Subdued box office performance…
There were very few releases such as Kochadaiyaan, Holiday, etc. this quarter due to IPL and election fervour. Hence, we expect PVR to witness 13% YoY decline in quarterly footfalls per screen to 34400.

Exhibit 47: Company specific view Company RemarksDB Corp We expect DB Corp to post 10.0% YoY ad-growth as the election led ad spend from
political parties was mitigated by lower spends from other categories. Circulation revenuethough flat QoQ is expected to post 12.3% YoY revenue growth due to cover price hikes.Moreover, though newsprint costs have eased and would remain flat QoQ, YoY there maybe a 17.6% increase in overall newsprint cost. This coupled with lower ad growth isexpected to lead to an EBITDA margin YoY contraction of about 464 bps to 24.9%
Dish TV Gross subscriber addition is estimated to be ~0.4 million, with net adds of 0.26 millionand churn of 0.17 million (0.5% monthly of net base). ARPU is expected to show 2.1%QoQ increase to | 166 as the previous quarter had a lower ARPU due to a lower numberof billing days. Margins are expected to improve 326 bps QoQ to 23.5% due to contentcost reduction from Dish's new initiatives "Request only channels'' and lower sportsrelated content costs
ENIL We expect ad revenues to grow 9.2% YoY far lower than the 23.4% in Q1FY14 due to highbase effect coupled with majority of ad spends being shifted to news broadcasters due toelections. Utilisation is expected to only marginally improve to ~93.9% from 92.3% inQ1FY14. The management remains optimistic on the timeline of the Phase III auctions andexpects it to take place in the ongoing fiscal
Eros International
Even though there were a few movies released this quarter, the company may reportrevenue growth of 7.4% due to syndication and overseas revenue growth of 79% and 19%YoY, respectively. There was only one big release, namely Kochadaiyaan, this quarter andsome regional movies due to IPL season and elections
HT Media HT Media is expected to post consolidated ad growth of 9.9% YoY. In contrast to peers,HT Media is expected to post strong growth in Hindi ads of about 15.5% on the back ofhigher FMCG led spends and increase in advertisement yields due to increased circulationin the UP belt. English ads may grow 7% YoY mainly led by yield improvement while radiois expected to continue to post strong growth of 13.5% YoY. Circulation revenues may beflat sequentially as there has been no significant change in cover prices or number ofcopies. Newsprint costs are expected to remain stable QoQ. The growth in ad growth andrelatively stable newsprint costs would lead to an EBITDA margin expansion of ~100 bpsYoY to reach 15.4% in this quarter
Jagran Prakashan
Jagran is expected to post 9.5% YoY ad growth clocking ad revenues of | 317.3 crore.Even though there was one-time election induced spending by political parties, growth inad revenue was lower due to a slowdown in education related spends and lowergovernment spending with implementation of model code of conduct. Moreover, adgrowth also looks subdued due to high base effect. Newsprint costs have, however,stabilised leading to an EBITDA margin of 22.7%, an improvement of about 390 bps QoQ.We expect the first half of the fiscal to be relatively weaker and ad spends to revive todouble digit levels only in the second half, hence, achieving an ad growth of 13.4% forFY15
Hathway Cable Phase III and IV of digitisation is yet to gain momentum. Hence, we expect seeding ofabout 120000-130000 boxes in the quarter with an average realisation of about | 800 perbox leading to an activation income of | 10 crore, flat QoQ. Both placement andsubscription revenues are expected to remain flat QoQ at | 85 and | 126 crore,respectively, due to status quo in gross billing since Q4. Broadband revenues are,however, expected to grow 5% QoQ to | 41 crore. EBITDA margins may fall to 11%, a 245bps reduction QoQ, higher than the previous quarter due to the presence of one-timeincome of | 22 crore

Exhibit 48: Company specific view Company RemarksPVR PVR has remained consistent with its property roll-out, adding 23 screens in the quarter.
The quarter has, however, been weaker on account of very few releases. More releaseswere from Hollywood such as Godzilla, Spiderman, etc. Hence, we expect footfalls perscreen to decline 13% YoY. The absolute footfalls may still remain flat YoY at 15.3 milliondue to 14% YoY increase in the number of screens. ATP spends may show only amarginal increase of 2.0% QoQ to | 163.2 but F&B spends are expected to show 5% QoQincrease to reach | 58.8. Nevertheless, the coming quarters have a strong movie pipelinethat augurs well for PVR
Sun TV Sun TV is expected to post subdued ad growth of 4.7% YoY due to a high base effectcoupled with the impact of lower ad inventory this quarter relative to the same quarterlast year. Moreover, the company is yet to fully recover from the ad revenue loss it facedin Q3FY14 due to massive hikes undertaken to offset the impact of ad cap. Subscriptionrevenue, on the other hand, may continue to grow at 23% to | 181.7 crore on the back ofdigitisation efforts, covering four major cities of southern India. However, the IPL lossesare expected to increase to | 16.4 crore as the matches were held internationally owingto which there is higher revenue uncertainty. This would result in about 90 bps YoYEBITDA margin contraction to about 57.9%
TV18 Broadcast Limited
Ad revenues for TV18 (ex-ETV) are expected to grow 10.4% YoY with strong growth in the general news segment owing to elections while entertainment ad would remain relativelysubdued. Overall revenues are expected to grow 36% YoY. However, this includes ETVfinancials and, hence, cannot be compared on a like-to-like basis. The net distributionincome would continue to remain flat due to discontinuance of the Indiacast JV
Zee Entertainment
Advertisement revenue for Zee is expected to grow better than other peers at about15.5% YoY. The growth, however, is lower compared to the 18.5% in Q1FY14 due to thehigh base effect and overall slowdown in ad spends from various categories. Subscriptionrevenue though may post 11.0% YoY growth. It is expected to remain flattish QoQ with nomajor headway in digitisation since then in Phase III and IV cities. The dismantling ofMediaPro JV does not augur well for the company and could result in higher carriagefees. Hence, on account of lower revenue growth and higher operating expenditure due tolaunch of a new channels and high carriage fees, margins are expected to decline 550 bps YoY to 24.4%

Metals & Mining
Steel demand continues to be subdued, prices decline sequentially
On the ferrous metal front, demand remained subdued with domestic steel consumption increasing merely 0.5% YoY to 12.6 million tonne (MT) during the first couple of months of FY15. Imports increased 18.2% YoY to 1.1 MT while exports grew 21.2% YoY to 1.0 MT in the aforesaid period. Domestic steel prices witnessed a decline of ~3% QoQ, which resulted in subdued realisations sequentially for companies within our coverage universe. However, the fall in realisations was partially compensated by the drop in prices of key inputs, such as coking coal. On the back of an increase in supplies from Australia and North America, coking coal contract prices have declined from US$143/tonne in Q4FY14 to ~US$125/tonne in Q1FY15.
Non-ferrous metal prices, mixed bag ; zinc outshines
Non-ferrous metal price movement during the quarter was a mixed bag. We witnessed a decline in prices of copper (both QoQ and YoY) while lead declined marginally QoQ. Aluminium was higher QoQ with zinc being the only gainer both QoQ as well as YoY. During the quarter, the average price of zinc was US$2072/tonne, up 2.3% QoQ and 12.5% YoY while aluminium was at US$1801/tonne, up 5.3% QoQ but lower by 1.9% YoY. Lead was at US$2097/tonne, up 2.2% YoY but lower 0.2% QoQ while copper was at US$6796/tonne, lower by 3.4% QoQ and 5.2% YoY.
EBITDA margins to decline QoQ
On account of muted sales volumes QoQ as well as subdued realisations sequentially we expect the topline of our coverage universe to decline 10.0% QoQ. EBITDA margins are expected to decline 100 bps QoQ at 16.8% with absolute coverage EBITDA declining 14.9% QoQ. Within our coverage universe, we expect EBITDA/tonne of SAIL at | 3219/tonne, JSW Steel at | 7581/tonne, Tata Steel India at | 15008/tonne and Tata Steel Europe at US$40/tonne. We expect Novelis to clock EBITDA/tonne of US$320/tonne while mining majors NMDC and Coal India are expected to report EBITDA/tonne of | 2650/tonne and | 331/tonne, respectively.

Brent crude price remains at elevated levels in quarter
The Iraq civil unrest and speculation of war in the oil producing region pushed up Brent crude oil prices. Average Brent crude oil prices increased 1.8% QoQ to $109.8/bbl in Q1FY15E and closed at $112.1/bbl. This will lead to some inventory gain for refineries in the quarter. The rupee remained flat QoQ. This will not have any impact on gross realisations of upstream companies (Cairn, ONGC and Oil India).
Gross under-recoveries in Q1FY15E at | 29,149 crore
Gross crude oil under-recoveries are estimated to decline QoQ from | 39,237 crore in Q4FY14 to | 26,947 crore in Q1FY15E on account of a reduction in under-recovery for all sensitive products i.e. diesel, kerosene and LPG. We expect the government’s share of the subsidy burden at 44.1% in Q1FY15E. We estimate upstream companies will bear a subsidy burden of | 15,788 crore ($56 per barrel subsidy burden) while downstream will have a subsidy burden of | 520 crore in Q1FY15E. Since downstream companies will have only a small share of 1.8% as subsidy burden in Q1FY15E, we expect oil marketing companies (HPCL and IOCL) to report a profit in the quarter.
Gross refining margins decline QoQ
Singapore gross refining margins (GRM) have declined QoQ from $6.2/barrel in Q4FY14 to $5.8/barrel in Q4FY14 mainly on account of a decline in gas oil crack spreads from $17.2/barrel in Q4FY14 to $15.6/barrel in Q1FY15E. The fuel oil and LPG crack spreads have also declined during the quarter. This will be negative for refiners like Reliance Industries, Essar Oil, CPCL and MRPL. Complex refineries will not witness any impact of Arab crude heavy-light spreads that have remained flat at US$4.9/barrel during the quarter.
No substantial increase in domestic gas volumes
Although we expect the decline in gas production from Reliance KG-D6 basin to be arrested (13.7 mmscmd in Q4FY14), the higher dependence on costlier LNG from global markets continues. Hence, large gas transportation companies would report muted volumes QoQ.

Exhibit 52: Company specific view Company RemarksCairn India Revenues are expected to increase 18.3% YoY due to rupee weakness and higher gross
production YoY. Net oil & gas production may increase 6.1% YoY to 140146 boepdwhile oil realisation is expected to increase 1.6% YoY to $96.2/bbl. We expect grossproduction from Rajasthan fields to increase 8% YoY. However it is expected to decline1.7% QoQ from 1,90,881 barrels/day to 1,87,500 barrels/day
Gail We expect a 13.7% YoY increase in revenue due to growth in natural gas trading,petrochemical & LPG and liquid hydrocarbon (LLH) business. We expect transmissionvolumes to decline 3.8% YoY to 95.5 mmscmd. Petchem volumes are expected toremain flat at 120 KTPA vs. 121 KTPA YoY while its realisations are expected toincrease 19.5% YoY due to price increase & rupee weakness YoY. We expect a subsidyburden of | 350 crore in Q1FY15
Gujarat Gas We expect 1.5% YoY increase in revenues due to increase in realisations. Totalvolumes at 2.4 mmscmd are expected to decline 8.2% YoY, as high LNG prices and theslowdown in economy are impacting demand from consumer industries. The grossspread is expected to decline from | 8.6/scm in Q2FY14 to | 7.5/scm in Q1FY15 andincrease from Q5FY15 to | 5.6/scm
Hindustan Petroleum
We expect revenues to increase 16.8% YoY on account of higher sales volume andlower share of under recovery. Refining margins are expected at $2.8/bbl vs. $2.6/bblYoY. We expect HPCL’s net under-recovery at | 120 crore, assuming the downstreamshare at 1.8% of total under-recoveries. This will help the company to post profit inQ1FY15
Indian Oil We expect revenues to increase 13.3% YoY on account of higher sales volume andlower share of under recovery. Refining margins are expected at $3.3/bbl vs. $1.7/bblYoY. We expect IOCL’s net under-recovery at | 271 crore, assuming the downstreamshare at 1.8% of total under-recoveries that will help the company to post profit inQ1FY15
Indraprastha Gas
Revenues are expected to increase 7.2% YoY on account of 6.6% YoY increase in salesvolume. Sales volumes are expected to increase to 3.9 mmscmd while net realisationsare expected to decline 1.2% YoY. CNG prices are expected to decline from | 39.5/kg inQ1FY14 to | 37.1/kg in Q1FY15
MRPL We expect revenues to decline 1.4% YoY, due to a decline in throughput. Thethroughput is expected at 3.1 mmtpa in Q1FY15 against 3.3 mmtpa in Q1FY14 due tomaintenance shutdown. GRMs are expected at US$3.6/barrel in Q1FY15 vs.US$1.9/barrel in Q4FY14, due to commissioning of the new coker heavy gas oil hydrotreating unit
Oil India Revenues are expected to increase 18.2% YoY due to higher production & realisation.We expect oil production of 0.84 MMT, a decline of 7% YoY and an increase of 6.6%QoQ, due to a partial shutdown during Q4FY14. The expected subsidy burden is $56/bbl(| 2026.1 crore vs. | 1982 crore YoY)
ONGC Revenues are expected to increase 7.4% YoY mainly due to higher net realisations YoY.We expect oil production to increase 2.3% YoY to 6.6 MMT, subsidy burden of$63.5/bbl (| 13355.3 crore vs. | 12621.8 crore YoY) and net realisation of $45.3/bbl inQ1FY15E against $40.2/bbl YoY
Petronet LNG We expect 17.5% YoY revenue growth due to higher realisations. Volumes areexpected to increase (6.4% YoY) to 137.9 trillion British thermal units (2.8 MMT) inQ1FY15. Increase in volumes can be mainly attributed to commissioning of the newjetty at Dahej. Higher interest and depreciation costs will lead to lower profitability on aYoY basis

Power
Capacity addition much beyond target till date in XIIIth Plan
The power sector added 5.5 GW capacity vs. targeted 0.8 GW capacity during April-May FY15. The total installed capacity currently stands at 248.5 GW. In Q1FY15, industry plant load factor (PLF) was flat at 49%. Average peak deficit declined to 4.7% in April-May 2015 vs. 6.4% YoY while base deficit declined to 4.1% vs. 7.1% YoY in the same period.
Private players withdraw from UMPP bidding; seek change in policy
Pre-qualified bidders for the 4,000 MW TN and Odisha UMPP such as Adani Power, Tata Power, Jindal Steel & Power, JSW Energy, Sterlite, CLP and GMR Energy decided to withdraw from the race for building these projects as they have requested the new government to frame investor friendly clauses for the same. Thus, they are opposing the existing bidding terms of the design - build - finance - operate - transfer model (DBFOT) as lenders are reluctant to finance such projects, which may act as a disincentive for them. Participants have also highlighted the CERC’s view, which says the model is more suited for natural monopoly businesses such as road, transport and T&D but not for de-licensed businesses like power generation. CERC had also highlighted complexities in the transfer process of assets and instead recommended a build-own-operate (BOO) model for UMPPs. The Power Ministry has assured they would review the existing model and draft new policies if felt necessary which could be a time consuming process, further delaying the commencement of these two projects.
Merchant rate unlikely to see sharp fall due to El Nino impact
Merchant rates increased significantly both QoQ (+9.3%) and YoY (+27.3%) to | 3.3/Kwh in Q1FY15 due to increased demand during general elections and delayed monsoon due to the El Nino impact. Going ahead, we do not expect merchant rates to decline in the near term due to predicted below average monsoon in FY15E, which would not only lead to higher temperature but also lower generation from many hydro power stations across the country.
Q1FY15 to witness growth across all companies, Power Grid, NHPC, PTC India to outpace others
Our coverage universe is expected to post a topline and bottomline growth of 14.7% and 12.7% YoY, respectively, in Q1FY15. Of this, PTC is expected to report strong volume growth of ~17.3% YoY to 9.9 BUs driven by higher demand during general elections, which were further elevated by delayed monsoons. While the topline is likely to grow 46.1% YoY, PAT is expected to grow 32.4% YoY. Power Grid is likely to put a healthy performance driven by strong capitalisation coupled with 17.9% YoY and 18.8% YoY growth in topline and bottomline, respectively. We expect NHPC’s sales volume and revenue to increase 16% and 17% YoY, respectively, driven by incremental capacity and improved demand. PAT, however, is likely to grow 12.4% YoY due to increased fixed cost from commissioning of new plants. While NTPC’s revenue is likely to increase 20.6% YoY, PAT is expected to grow only 8.2% YoY due to increased employee (+14.2% YoY), G&A (+15.6% YoY) and depreciation (+26.2% YoY) expenses from commissioning of new capacities. CESC is likely to report 6.8% YoY revenue and 6.3% YoY PAT growth driven by 2.5% YoY rise in generation and declining losses at Spencer Retail. Tata Power is likely to report modest revenue growth of 5% YoY while PAT is expected to grow significantly by 260% YoY to | 227.2 crore due to a lower YoY base and a better performance at the Mundra plant due to declining international coal prices.

expected to increase 9.3% YoY to | 3.2/Kwh. Consequently, we expect revenues toincrease 21.2% YoY while adjusted PAT is expected to increase 10.8% to | 2581 crore asfixed cost will increase due to new capacity
NHPC We expect NHPC's generation and sales unit to increase ~16% YoY to 7.4 BUs and 6.5BUs, respectively, in Q1FY15E driven by incremental capacity. However, tariff realisation isexpected to remain flat at +1% YoY to ~| 2.9/Kwh. Consequently, we expect toplinegrowth of 17.2% YoY to | 1,900 crore and PAT growth of 12% YoY to | 310 crore inQ1FY15
PTC India We expect trading volumes to grow 17.3% YoY to 9.9 BUs in Q1FY15E due to higherdemand from ongoing elections and an extreme summer climate. Growth across long termtrades is likely to be 65% YoY driven by commencement of LT PPA. Accordingly, sales andPAT are likely to grow 46% and 32.6%, respectively
Tata Power We expect moderate sales growth of 5% YoY driven by increased production and salesacross its coal SPV 23 MT in Q1FY15 vs. 20 MT YoY. Coal realisation is expected at$56/tonne vs. $66/tonne YoY. We expect a consolidated PAT of | 227 crore vs. | 63 croreYoY

Volume to remain subdued; REIT tax framework to be key catalyst for long term re-rating
A strong electoral mandate, unveiling of the government’s 10 year agenda, including housing for all by 2022, and RBI’s dovish tone towards interest rate are positive for the sector. However, we believe the peak level of pricing, particularly in the Mumbai region, is likely to keep volumes subdued. We anticipate our coverage sales volume will decline 6.2% YoY largely due to an 18% decline in sales volume of Sobha. However, we expect 56.3% and 11.0% YoY growth in sales volume of Mahindra Lifespace and Oberoi, respectively.
On the commercial side, we believe Sebi and the government’s finalisation of REIT framework including single layer tax structure would be key catalysts. REIT listing would lead to a compression in the cap rate, leading to better valuation for commercial properties in addition to freed up the capital for developers.
Coverage universe revenue to grow 10.1%; PAT to decline 11% Given the subdued sales volume, revenues of our real estate coverage universe are expected to grow 10.1% YoY mainly due to 15.9% YoY growth in the topline of Mahindra Lifespace and 12.7% YoY growth in the topline of Sobha. The bottomline of our real estate coverage universe is, however, expected to decline 11.0% YoY dragged mainly by 19.1% YoY & 14.0% YoY decline in PAT for Oberoi and Mahindra Lifespace, respectively, largely on account of rising interest expenses.
Exhibit 55: Company specific view (Real Estate coverage universe) Company RemarksOberoi Realty We anticipate Oberoi sales volume to remain muted at ~54,000 sq ft. While,
Oberoi's revenues is expected to grow 2.8% Y-o-Y to |224.5 crore, the bottom lineis expected to decline 19% y-o-Y to |82.3 crore due to interest expenses of |9crore for loan of |300 crore taken for worli project. Key monitrable: Mulund &Borivali launches
Sobha Developers Sobha’s sales volume declined 18% YoY to 0.75 million sq. ft. in Q1FY15 due thelower off take in Gurgaon and Chennai region. Looking at Q1FY15, Sobha needs toachieve average sales volume of ~1.1 mn sq ft per quarter to achieve its salesvolume guidance of 4.0 mn sq ft in FY15, which appears to be tall task for thecompany, going ahead. On financial performance front, we expect top-line togrow by 12.7% YoY to |519.6 crore and PAT to grow by 6.3% YoY to |53.3 crore
Mahindra Lifespace With the planned launches in the affordeable segment, we believe MLD to reportgood set of volumes. In Q1 FY15, we anticipate MLD's revenues to grow 15.9%YoY to |77 crore. However, the net profit is expected to decline 14% yoY to |13.6crore

Retail Some revival in same store sales growth likely…
We expect the retail coverage universe to report revenue growth of 10-12% (except Titan) led by healthy revival in same store sales growth (SSSG). While space addition continues to remain muted, we expect Future Retail (FRL) to witness SSSG of ~8% and Shoppers Stop (SS) to report SSSG of 12% and 8% in the departmental and HyperCity segment, respectively. Bata, also, is expected to report revenue growth of 10.6% as some buoyancy in consumer sentiment was witnessed. However, Titan is likely to witness revenue de-growth of 9.1% YoY owing to a higher base of Q1FY14 where April and May 2013 witnessed a spike in demand for jewellery owing to a steep correction in gold prices. We expect the jewellery segment to witness de-growth of ~3%.
Operational performance – a mixed bag!
Bata and FRL are likely to maintain their operating margin. SS is likely to witness an improvement in the standalone segment owing to stabilisation of stores added in the last 15-18 months thereby leading to margin expansion. Titan could also witness an improved product mix in the jewellery segment (as Q1FY14 witnessed a jump in the demand for gold jewellery) leading to overall margin expansion.
Space addition to remain muted
We expect FRL and SS to add 0.2 and 0.4 million sq ft (YoY) taking the total operational space to 10.5 and 5.5 million sq ft, respectively. While FRL may witness an improvement in revenue per sq ft (| 2,364), SS may witness a dip (| 1,678) owing to continued space addition.

Company RemarksBata India Revenues are likely to increase 10.6% YoY to | 632.9 crore. We expect gross margin to
marginally improve (up 60 bps YoY) to 52.5%. However, as the company has raisedpromotional spends, we expect the operating margin to remain flat at 16.8%. Consequently,PAT growth is likely to be relatively muted at 6.5% YoY to | 66.0 crore
Future Retail
With muted space addition (0.12 mn sq ft QoQ, 0.2 mn sq ft YoY) and SSSG of ~8%, weexpect revenues to grow 9.9% YoY to | 2,480.0 crore. Gross margin (26.5%) & operatingmargin (8.3%) are likely to be maintained. As fixed costs continue to remain high, we expectPAT of | 8.5 crore (loss of | 7.5 crore last year)
Shoppers Stop
Owing to 0.4 mn sq ft addition (YoY) & SSSG of 8-12%, revenues are likely to grow 11.6% YoYto | 919.6 crore. Operating margin is likely to increase to 3.3% in Q1FY15E 1.9% - Q1FY14) ledby improvement in standalone performance. However, as losses on the HyperCity end continuewe expect a loss of | 11.9 crore

Dry bulk charter rates continue to soften as supply side catches up
Average Baltic Dry Index (BDI) for Q1FY15 declined 28% QoQ as the spurt in iron ore demand from China showed signs of slowing down. On a segmental basis, the smaller vessel segment also followed suit with Baltic Panamax, Supramax and Handymax indices declining ~40%, 23% and 27%, respectively, on an average for the quarter vis-à-vis Q4FY14. Iron ore inventory in China was significantly higher at an average of 105 million tonnes (MT) for Q1FY15. This would lead to reduced imports of iron ore by China in the near term. On the supply front, the dry bulk segment added ~58 million dwt for 2013 and ~22 million dwt till May 2014. It has a strong order book of approximately 140 million dwt till CY16 (19% of current dry bulk fleet).
Tanker rates too weaken post firming up on extended winter
Quarterly average of Baltic Clean tanker Index (BCTI) and Baltic Dirty Tanker Index (BDTI) softened ~12% and 24%, respectively, in Q1FY15. Tanker rates declined post strengthening in the previous quarter due to extended winter in the US and stocking due to Chinese New Year. However, with a marked decline in activity in the Middle East Gulf region charter rates softened towards end of the quarter for VLCC (largely) and other carriers.
Revenue likely to remain flattish while profits struggle to catch up
Q1FY15E revenue for the I-direct shipping universe is expected to remain flattish YoY whereas it is expected to decline~6% sequentially as charter rates remained volatile and softened towards the end of quarter. On the EBITDA front, the shipping universe is expected to post growth of 11.5% YoY on account of lower charter hire and bunker cost. Further, the PAT of the I-direct shipping universe is anticipated to come in at ~| 107 crore. On the company specific front, the performance of GE Shipping is expected to remain subdued with revenue gaining 3% and EBITDA declining ~3% YoY (due to high dry docking and mobilisation charges) whereas PAT is expected at | 91 crore in the absence of any extraordinary item. SCI is expected to continue to make profit in the quarter also with PAT of ~| 10 crore in Q1FY15.

Telecom
Subscriber growth rate declines on a QoQ basis…
We expect subscribers to grow ~1.1% QoQ to 458.4 million subscribers for telecom operators under our coverage. Growth rate would decline primarily due to churn in RCom’s subscriber base, which is expected to fall by 1.7 million to 110.4 million subscribers. We expect Airtel to lead subscriber addition adding about 4.1 million subscribers followed by Idea that is expected to add about 2.6 million subscribers in the quarter. Airtel, Idea & RCom are expected to end the quarter with 209.6, 138.4 & 110.4 million subscribers, respectively. ARPMs for all three are expected to increase marginally by 0.2-0.3% QoQ leading to a sequential decline in average MoUs for both Idea and Airtel in the range of 0.6-0.7%. RCom, however, may see a 4% QoQ rise in MoUs to 308 minutes due to churn of ineffective users in the quarter. Revenue growth for all three telcos may majorly stem from QoQ growth in data revenues to the tune of 9.3%, 6.6% and 10.9% for Bharti Airtel, RCom and Idea, respectively. We expect our telecom universe to post revenue growth of 10.5% YoY and 2.4% QoQ.
Data to lead growth in telecom sector
Overall data usage is expected to continue to grow at a rapid pace, increasing 9.1% QoQ to 132 million GB for all three telcos. However, realisation per MB is expected to continue to decline due to disruptive pricing done to push data consumption. We expect per MB realisation to decline about 1.0-2.5% for Airtel, Idea and RCom to reach 27.7, 25.3 and 17.7 paisa, respectively. Contribution of data to revenue has been consistently increasing over the past few quarters. We expect the total data revenue to increase as a percentage of total revenue from 11.8% in Q4FY14 to 12.4% in Q1FY15E displaying 8.9% QoQ growth to | 3108.2 crore. Airtel, Idea and RCom have 11.8%, 10.8% and 16.0% contribution from data in their total revenues.
ARPMs to grow, minutes to rise 2.1% QoQ led by subscriber addition
Telcos have been gradually reducing discounts and hiking tariffs, hence, leading to an ARPM expansion. Voice ARPM for all three telcos under our coverage is expected to expand marginally by 0.2-0.3%. Overall ARPM is expected to expand 0.8-2.0% on account of continued subscriber addition and higher data consumption aiding margin expansion. We expect ARPMs to range between 44 and 45 paisa. Though MoUs across telcos are expected to decline owing to ARPU expansion, total traffic is expected to continue to grow owing to continued subscriber addition mitigating the impact of declining usage per subscriber. We expect 2.1% QoQ growth to reach 535 billion minutes in Q1FY15 from 524 billion minutes in Q4FY14. Declining MoU would limit ARPU expansion, which would grow 0.4%, 0.4% and 6.0% for Airtel, Idea and RCom to | 197, | 174 and 136, respectively. RCom’s growth is inflated due to the high rate of churn that may be seen in the quarter.
EBITDA margin improves
Margins across players are expected to improve sequentially as well YoY buoyed by an increase in tariffs and, hence, higher operating leverage. Airtel may post about 30 bps QoQ expansion in the blended EBITDA margin. Idea’s margins are expected to remain flattish as savings due to lower discounts would be offset by higher advertisement expenses. RCom is expected to post a high EBITDA margin growth of ~200 bps due to lower administrative expenses in the quarter.

addition of about 2.8 million subscribers in the first two months of the quarter. Weexpect subscriber growth to remain modest at 2.0% reaching about 209.6 millionsubscribers. Voice ARPM is expected to expand to 37.2 paisa from 37.0 paisa onthe back of hike in tariffs. However, with an increase in realisations, MoU maydecline marginally by 0.6% QoQ to 434.3 minutes, even though total traffic wouldincrease 2.1% to 270.4 billion minutes. The topline would continue to be driven bystrong data growth to come from increase in the data subscribers to 60.2 million(28.8% of total subscribers), a 6.5% QoQ growth in data usage per subscriber to294.7 MB and an overall growth of 12.1% QoQ in data traffic to 52.3 billion MB forthe domestic business. Data revenues would be forming 11.8% of the total mobilityrevenues. There has, however, been some churn in the telemedia operations of thecompany. Hence, we have factored in a subscriber de-growth of 1.5% QoQ to reach3.3 million. The African business would show only a
marginal growth of 1% as the 5.6% QoQ growth in the total voice volume would bemitigated by continued price wars. Hence, this would result in flat QoQ Africanbusiness EBITDA margins at 25.5%
Idea Cellular Idea Cellular has added only about 1.9 million subscribers within the first twomonths of the quarter. We expect it to exhibit 2.0% QoQ growth to about 138million subscribers by quarter end. Voice realisation is expected to increase 2%QoQ to about 36.7 paisa leading to a marginal QoQ decline in MoUs to 394 minutesfrom 397 minutes. Total voice traffic may, however, grow 3.0% QoQ to 162.2 billionminutes. ARPMs will also be aided by higher data usage per subscriber, which islikely to grow 3% QoQ to 389 MB from 377 MB a quarter ago. Data revenues areexpected to form about 10.8% of total revenues in the quarter. In addition, Idea isalso expected to see a pick-up in 3G subscribers post the TDSAT ruling allowingintra-circle roaming on 3G
Reliance Communication
There has been negative subscriber growth in the past two months for RCom.Hence, we expect a 1.5% QoQ dip in subscriber numbers to 110.4 millionsubscribers. The decline in subscribers would lead to a flat overall voice traffic at102.7 billion minutes. However, the 0.2% growth in voice ARPMs to 33.1 paisamay lead to a 1% QoQ expansion in voice revenues to | 3396.2 crore, despite thede-growth in subscriber numbers. Revenue growth in the quarter would mostlycome from data growth, which is expected to post 9% QoQ growth as the datausage per subscriber increases 3% QoQ to 468.7 MB leading to 3% QoQ growth indata revenues to | 1130.6 crore (forming 16% of the total India mobility revenue).We expect RCom to report margins of about 31.5%, a 216 bps improvement QoQ,on account of higher operating leverage. RCom recently concluded the QIP for |4800 crore and intends to use the money so raised for the reduction of debt.However, any interest benefits would start flowing in only from the next quarter

McLeod Russel We expect ~4% higher tea sales volume at 10.3 million kg led by higher domestic teasales volume (9.6 mkg) with exports remaining a tad lower (0.7 mkg). We expectdomestic realisations to remain flat YoY at ~| 170/kg but believe export realisation wouldbe slightly lower at ~| 190/kg. Being a lean season for tea growers (no production duringthe quarter) we do not expect any significant improvement in margins. We estimatemargins will remain flat YoY at 17.4%
TTK Prestige Revenues are likely to remain flattish at | 316.4 crore (up 3.3% YoY) led by single digitgrowth in all segments, except the appliances segment, which is expected to de-growowing to weak demand.
