Concor, Gateway Rail form venture for container terminal

 

Bureau

 

Move aimed at consolidating cargo volumes of north India 

 

Project details

 

The terminal will be built with an investment of Rs 700 Millions, with an equity element of Rs 210 Millions. Gateway Rail and Concor will have shareholding in the ratio of 51:49 respectively in this venture.  The depot is expected to be in place in one year.

 

New Delhi March 26 Container Corporation of India (Concor) and Gateway Rail Freight Private Limited, a subsidiary of Gateway Distriparks, have entered into an agreement to set up a joint venture company to construct and operate a rail-linked double-stack container terminal at Garhi Harsaru near Gurgaon in Haryana connecting NCR to the western ports.

 

Gateway Rail acquired a rail container operating licence last year.

 

"The terminal would be built with an investment of Rs 700 Millions, with an equity element of Rs 210 Millions," said Mr R.K. Mehrotra, Managing Director, Concor. Gateway Rail and Concor will have shareholding in the ratio of 51:49 respectively in this venture. The depot is expected to be in place in one year, he said in a press conference here today.

 

The terminal will be spread over an area of about 100 acres and will have a rail handling and transshipment terminal, an ICD, multiple container freight station, warehouse complex and a domestic cargo hub. It will also have a large warehousing complex for both bonded and transit cargo with separate facilities for cold storage, reefer containers and for domestic cargo. The move is aimed at consolidating cargo volumes of north India for double-stack container train operation on the diesel route from NCR to JN Port, Mundra and Pipavav using the Delhi-Rewari-Ringus-Phulera route. This terminal is likely to be connected to the proposed Western Dedicated Rail Freight Corridor, and have road links to the proposed Kundali - Manesar - Palwal (KMP) Expressway.

 

It will also be developed as a hub for rail transport of cars and two-wheelers between north India and western, central, eastern and southern Indian locations. "With Maruti's plans to export about three lakh cars every year, we are eyeing that traffic and we are in talks with various automobile firms including Maruti," Mr Mehrotra said.

 

Concor, which had entered into an agreement with NYK Liner for offering automobile services with specially designed wagons, stated that the joint venture company would supplement the agreement with NYK. "Our MoU with NYK allows us to get additional strategic partners as well," he said.

 

On whether Concor is talking to Pipavav Rail Corporation (another company with rail container operations licence), which has specially designed containers to be able to move more cars in a rake, Mr Mehrotra said, "We are open to talks with everybody including Pipavav Rail."

 

The terminal will cater to the industrial areas of Delhi, Bijwasan, Gurgaon, Manesar, Dharuhera, Bawal, Hissar, Sonepat, Panipat in Haryana and Bhiwadi, Neemrana and Behror in Rajasthan. The terminal will also facilitate the export-import traffic from the proposed Haryana SEZ.

 

Gateway Rail has already placed order for two rakes (each rake consisting of 45 wagons), one of which is expected to be delivered within two weeks, Mr Pillai said.

 

This agreement replaces the existing agreement between Concor and Gateway Distriparks on train operations from ICD Garhi Harsaru. Gateway Distriparks has an operational rail-linked ICD at this location. Currently, Concor provides rail connectivity to this ICD. The operation of this ICD will be taken over by the joint venture company. Rail operations will now be done jointly by Gateway Rail and Concor.

 

GDL is expected to benefit from improving infrastructure and policy initiatives like entry of private players in the rail freight business. It has also moved up the value chain through acquisitions in the cold storage business and become an integrated logistics solution provider.

 

Company Background

 

Gateway Distriparks (GDL) is a one of the major private players in handling, transport and storage of containers, warehousing of cargo and various value added services provided in relation to import and export of cargo in containers. GDL is an Indo-Singapore joint venture and has been promoted by Prism International Pte Limited Windmill International Pte Limited and Thakral Corporation.

 

The company has modern Container Freight Station's (CFS's) at Dronagiri (about 9 kms from the Jawaharlal Nehru Port ), Navi Mumbai and New Manali, Chennai besides an Inland Container Depot (ICD) at Garhi Harsaru (near Delhi ), Haryana and a newly commissioned CFS at Vishakapatam (a joint venture with Suri Group).

 

In March 2005 the company raised Rs 792 Millions by way of initial public offer (IPO). GDL offered 11 Millions shares of Rs 10 each at a premium of Rs 62. In December 2005, GDL raised Rs 3846 Millions by way Global Depository Receipts (GDR) at a price of Rs 230.87 per share.

 

The company has recently proposed a bonus issue in ratio of 1:4.

 

Investment Rationale

 

Container Freight industry to grow at a rapid pace

 

India container freight business is expected to grow by 4 times in the next 6-8 years to 20,000,000 Twenty Foot Equivalent Units (TEU). To capitalize on the growth opportunity, GDL has enhanced its presence by establishing Container Freight Stations (CFS) and Inland Container Depots (ICD) at strategic locations like Navi Mumbai, Vizag, Chennai, Gurgaon, Faridabad , Haryana, Ludhiana and Kochi . These CFSs and ICDs provide GDL with access to 90% of Container Freight Corridors of India and would enable it to ramp up its revenues going ahead.

 

Entry into cold storage to derisk business

 

GDL has acquired 50.1% stake in Snowman Frozen Foods Limited (SFFL) for Rs 480 Millions. The acquisition would enable GDL to forward integrate into the cold storage business and become an integrated logistics player. The acquisition would help GDL to diversify and de-risk its business by providing an additional revenue stream. GDL can also look at exploring business opportunities with other stakeholders like Mitsubishi Logistics Corporation and Nichirei Logistics Group Inc. who hold the balance stake in SFFL.

 

JV with Concor to transition GDL into an end-to-end rail transportation service provider

 

The rail freight business was recently opened to the private sector. GDL formed a subsidiary Gateway Rail Freight Private Limited (GRFPL) and acquired an all India operating license from the Indian Railway for an upfront payment of Rs 500 Millions. It formed a joint venture with Container Corporation (Concor) to construct and operate a rail linked ICD at Garhi, Harsaru, Gurgaon, which will connect the North Central Region (NCR) with the western ports. GRFPL will hold 51% in the joint venture while remaining 49% will be held by Concor. GDL and Concor will share the rail operations for movement of rakes from the Garhi ICD to ports equally. The joint venture would enable GDL to run rakes from the ICD, which as not allowed under the earlier agreement with Concor. The integrated services from the ICD would enable a strong growth in volumes and help GDL to become an end-to-end container rail transportation service provider. Additionally, GDL will also earn lease rentals from the land leased out to the joint venture.

 

Better infrastructure and policy initiatives

 

The Government's impetus on promoting FDI for construction of small ports at various locations will provide an impetus to Export-Import trade volumes and thus provide a boost to the container freight segment. India's two major ports JNPT an Chennai, which control 80% of the container freight business are constructing new terminals to decongest the ports. The improved infrastructure and decongestion of the ports would enable GDL to capitalize on the opportunity.

 

Key Concerns

 

Low entry barrier

 

The container freight business is characterized by low barrier to entry. Any player with significant investment capacity can enter the business.

 

Idle cash balance

 

The company has Rs 1570 Millions of fixed deposits. GDL earns an interest of 8.5% on the same. The company has kept this cash balance to finance future acquisitions. GDL's Return on equity will be impacted till the cash balance is not utilized.

 

Financials:

 

GDL is expected to benefit from improving infrastructure and policy initiatives like entry of private players in the rail freight business. It has also moved up the value chain through acquisitions in the cold storage business and become an integrated logistics solution provider. We expect GDL's consolidated sales to grow from Rs 1609.900 Millions to Rs 2400 Millions and net profit to post a 28% growth to Rs 990 Millions in Fy08E. For FY09E, we expect the company to report sales of Rs 3000 Millions and a net profit of Rs 1240 Millions.

 

Valuations

 

GDL with pan-India presence and good connectivity with the major ports is well poised to take advantage of the strong growth in the container freight industry. It would be able to ramp up its volume by entering into newer areas like cold storage and rail transportation services. In addition, the company is actively scouting companies for acquisition, which would trigger further upside in the stock. At the current price of Rs 182 the stock trades at a P/E of 16.3x FY09E EPS of 11.13 (on post bonus dilued equity of Rs 1150 Millions), which is at 22% discount to the average industry P/E of 20. Given the huge business potential and de-risked business model we rate the stock an OUTPERFORMER with a price target of Rs 220, an upside potential of 20% in the next 6 months.

 

Technical Outlook

 

The stock has formed a long-term support at Rs 173,levels. Stock is currently trading above its 200 days moving average . On the weekly charts stock has formed the double bottom formation pattern. The MACD indicators are in the oversold zone and have a bullish crossover. On the weekly charts average volume have increase 6 times compared to the pervious week, which indicate the strong buying was witness at around 179 levels. The RSI indicators have also gained strength and remain in neutral territory. Short Term Averages are on the verge of a positive crossover. Once the stock move above Rs 187 levels, we can see it could further move up to Rs198 levels, closing above this level can further move up the stock to Rs 213 levels very soon. Medium term and long term resistances remain at Rs 193 and Rs 213 levels.
