Cera Sanitaryware reported flat revenue of Rs 8.9 billion in H1, with EBITDA declining 11.4% year-on-year, while PAT rose slightly by 1.7% to Rs 1.2 billion. The subdued demand was attributed to heatwaves, election slowdowns, and prolonged rains, impacting margins. Despite these challenges, a lean balance sheet with a projected net cash surplus supports a Buy rating, with a target price of Rs 9,899.
Anand Rathi has maintained a Buy rating for Finolex Cables, setting a target price of Rs 1,577. The company faced challenges in Q2 due to declining copper prices and multiple price cuts, but stable copper prices and opportunities in the OFC segment with BharatNet are expected to drive growth in the second half of the year. A strong balance sheet and healthy cash flows further support the positive outlook.
Anand Rathi has maintained a Buy rating on Hindalco Industries, setting a target price of Rs 800 per share. The company is progressing with its strategic expansion, including the ramp-up of the 250k tonne Guthrie facility and significant domestic capex in alumina, aluminium, and copper expected by FY27-29. With strong aluminium and copper EBITDA, increased beverage can shipments, and a focus on enhancing recyclability, Hindalco is well-positioned for growth.
Anand Rathi has maintained a Buy rating on Shree Cements, setting a revised 12-month target price of Rs 28,600, down from Rs 28,952. The company's Q2 performance was impacted by weak demand and low government infrastructure spending, although strategies focusing on value and logistics optimization provided some support. Ongoing capacity expansion and improved renewable energy share are seen as positive factors for future growth.
Anand Rathi has maintained a Buy rating on Voltas, setting a target price of Rs 2,018. The company's UCP segment showed robust performance with a 31% year-on-year revenue growth in Q2 and a 56% increase in RAC volume for H1 FY25, securing a 21% market share. Voltas Beko also reported a 54% growth in volumes, enhancing its market presence in refrigerators and washing machines.
Anand Rathi has issued a bullish recommendation for ITC, setting a target price of ₹560. The company's Q2FY25 results showed a 15.6% YoY revenue growth to ₹222,819 million, driven by strong performances in hotels, value-added agri products, and leaf tobacco, despite a slight decline in EBITDA margins. The demerger of the hotel business is expected to enhance profitability and return ratios moving forward.
Anand Rathi has issued a buy rating for Cyient, setting a target price of Rs 2,230 in a report dated October 30, 2024. The company's Q2 performance showed a 2% quarter-on-quarter growth, although sustainability metrics declined. Despite challenges, management remains optimistic about improved growth in the second half of the fiscal year.
The Q2 earnings season for 2024 is in full swing, with major companies like Bharti Airtel, Sun Pharma, and Indian Oil set to release their financial reports today. Earlier, Reliance Industries reported a 4.8% profit decline, while HCL Tech and TCS posted profit increases of 10.5% and 5.0% YoY, respectively. Upcoming reports from giants such as Maruti Suzuki and Dabur India are also anticipated this week.
Indian equity markets are experiencing a significant downturn, with the Nifty 50 and Sensex both dropping 3% last week. The Nifty has fallen below the 100-day EMA and the critical level of 24,200, prompting experts to predict a potential decline to 23,894 and further to 23,455. A "sell on rally" strategy is recommended, with particular attention on ICICI Bank's earnings reaction, alongside reports from Bharti Airtel, Sun Pharma, and Ambuja.
Gabriel India reported a robust Q2 consolidated EBITDA of Rs 987 million, exceeding estimates with a 34% year-on-year increase. The company's strategic entry into the high-growth sunroof product line and plans for future acquisitions are expected to drive significant growth.
