INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Current State of the Indian IT Industry

 

FY 2012 has been a good year for the Indian IT-BPO industry, keeping in view the slowdown in global economic environment and corporate IT spending budgets. As per NASSCOM estimates, aggregate revenues of IT-BPO industry for the FY12 crossed USD 100 Billion. Aggregate IT software and services revenues (excluding hardware) reached USD 88 Billion. Export revenue (excluding hardware) reached USD 69 Billion. As a proportion of India's GDP, aggregate sector revenues have grown from 1.2 % in FY 1998 to an estimated 7.5 % in FY 2012.

 

The Indian IT Industry can be broadly analyzed from the dimensions of Verticals, Service Lines and Geographies.

 

• Verticals: As per NASSCOM estimates, amongst the matured verticals such as BFSI, Manufacturing and Telecom, BFSI still remains dominant with a share of 41.2 % in total IT-BPO exports. The share of Telecom segment has declined to 19% in FY12 from 20% in FY11. Emerging verticals like Retail, Healthcare, Media and Utilities continue to record fast growth.

• Service Lines: Within exports, IT services segment is fastest growing at 19% over FY 2011 with export revenue of USD 40 Billion, accounting for 58% of total exports. The BPO segment is expected to grow by 12% to reach USD 16 Billion in FY 2012.

• Geographies: USA continues to drive growth in IT-BPO exports with export revenue of 17% in FY 2012. APAC region exhibited fastest growth at nearly 18%.

 

Subject continues to outperform the Indian IT-BPO industry. During the year ending June' 2012, subject's revenues grew by 17% YoY compared to revenue growth of 14% YoY for Indian IT-BPO industry. On a three year CAGR basis, subject's revenue grew by 24% whereas the Indian IT-BPO industry revenues grew by 13% during the same period. On a five year CAGR, subject's revenue grew by 24.4% as compared to the Indian IT-BPO industry revenue growth of 16%.

 

Industry Outlook

 

The IT-BPO industry has been the frontrunner of the Indian technology sector by driving growth for the economy in terms of generating employment, increasing revenues through service exports and enhancing social lifestyles of the burgeoning middle class due to increased disposable income. The Indian IT-BPO industry continues to play a major role in transforming India into a global force to be reckoned with, and is influencing some of the key technology trends that are shaping the future of the industry. Some of these trends are:

 

·         Enterprise Mobility

·         Cloud Computing

·         Business Intelligence

·         Analytics

·         Social Networking

·         Virtualization

 

Investment in new technologies will be the key to success for organizations. IT spending on enterprise and mobility will be a huge market. The market for enterprise mobility solutions alone is expected to grow to USD 17 Billion by 2015. Spending on Public Cloud Services is likely to surpass growth of overall IT spends by almost four times between 2012 and 2015. These emerging technology trends are expected to increase industry revenues to an estimated USD 225 Billion by 2020, as per NASSCOM.

 

Drivers for future growth

 

The Indian IT industry will continue to redefine and transform itself by establishing new business and global delivery models and partnerships. Global sourcing will be a key growth driver, with organizations trying to reduce operational costs, entering new markets and focusing on innovation. In the competitive business environment, outsourcing is poised to be a strategic initiative, with many organizations focusing on leveraging existing technology investments. In addition, innovation and operational efficiencies will gain considerable prominence as key competitive differentiators.

 

Future Outlook

 

• Indian Government's expected push of USD 1 Trillion during 2013 – 2017 towards infrastructure development will be a key growth driver for the Indian IT Industry.

• Evolution of mobility and its rapid adoption is going to drive IT spending worldwide.

• Enterprise Mobility Solutions alone is expected to reach USD 17 Billion by 2015.

• Emerging markets will be a key growth area for Global IT Outsourcing.

WHY IS HCL TECH'S PE MULTIPLE NOT REFLECTING GOOD EARNINGS?

 

February 20, 2013

 

HCL Technologies has risen over 60 percent in the last one year, and its EBIT (earnings before interest, taxes) margins are up 400bps since Jan 2012, but interestingly the P/E multiple has not kept pace with the EPS (earning per share) upgrades.

 

"Within the P = P/E*EPS equation, we note that robust FY13 EPS upgrade of 40 percent has alone accounted for 80 percent of the stock move with valuation

 

(P/E) upgrade contributing just 11 percent (or just 20 percent of the 12-month stock move)," noted JP Morgan analysts Viju George and Amit Sharma.

 

Despite the strong growth at HCL Tech, the recent management changes are clearly among the key concerns on the street.

 

The company last month elevated Anant Gupta, its COO and President to the post of CEO, while industry veteran Vineet Nayar will stay on as vice chairman and joint MD till July and VC there after.

 

Gupta has played a key role in driving growth in the infrastructure management vertical, but the market is more concerned about the software services business, which, compared to infra management has rather had a muted growth, the JP Morgan analysts point out.

 

Further more, how well the company performs under a new CEO will also be an important marker as this shapes P/E multiples one year out, George and Sharma say.

 

The analysts say that there is also a section of the street "not fully assured of the soundness of HCL Tech's operating practices," which might also partly explain an inability of the stock to achieve P/E breakout.  According to a media report last month, several analysts and executives at rival IT firms had raised concerns on alleged "unethical practices" at HCL’s European operations. HCL Tech has denied any wrongdoings.

 

"Our view is HCL Tech is more aggressive in pricing and more flexible in contract restructuring. But this reflects in its margins/ROCE/ROE profile and thus is ideally duly factored in its valuations," they said.

 

JP Morgan has an "overweight" rating on HCL Tech with a target price of Rs.775. Its 12-month forward multiple remains at 12-13 times.

 

HCL Tech shares were up 1 percent at Rs.712.70 on NSE in morning trade. 

 

BUY HCL TECH; TARGET OF RS 840: NIRMAL BANG

 

February 21, 2013

 

Nirmal Bang is bullish on HCL Technologies (HCLT) and has recommended buy rating on the stock with a target price of Rs.840 in its February 21, 2013 research report.

 

“RDA, a key client of HCLTech has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy with the US Bankruptcy Court in the southern district of New York. RDA, owner of the popular magazine, Reader’s Digest, is reeling under a high debt burden and will restructure it to finally emerge with a debt of around US$100mn, around US$465mn lower. It should be noted that this is the second time since August 2009 that RDA has filed for bankruptcy. RDA’s international operations are not part of the filing.”

 

“RDA had signed a seven-year, US$350mn deal with HCLT in March 2009, encompassing application development and infrastructure management services spanning 45 countries across North America, Latin America and Asia. Thus, annualised deal revenue amounts to US$50mn.  In our view, an important event to watch out for is RDA’s emergence from bankruptcy. In our view, a worstcase scenario would be RDA shutting down, in which case HCLT would lose the contract and write down receivables to the tune of US$4.3mn. There could also be uncertainty regarding RDA’s IT strategy after emerging out of bankruptcy, in which case HCLT’s revenue from RDA could also decline.”

 

In a worst case scenario of HCLT losing the RDA contract, we expect revenue impact of 0.9%, EBITDA margin impact of 50bps and EPS impact of 2.5% in FY14E. Currently, in the wake of stronger-than-peer revenue growth, healthy EPS CAGR of 28.8% over FY12-FY14E and reasonable valuation at 12.2 FY14E EPS, we have retained our buy rating on HCLT with a target price of Rs.840,” says Nirmal Bang research report.

EXPECT HCL TECH TO HIT RS.750 IN SHORT TERM: BALA

 

February 19, 2013

 

According to technical expert, Jai Bala of cashthechaos, it is better to buy HCL Tech closer to Rs.670-675. He expects the stock to hit about Rs.750 in short-term.

 

Bala told CNBC-TV18, “If you look at the move of HCL Tech  from the July lows to January highs, technically it says that there is one more leg on the upside pending for the stock. The decline from the January highs to Rs.750 looks like a perfect correction.”

 
“It is better to buy this stock closer to Rs.670-675 and expect the stock to hit about Rs.750 in the short-term, Bala added.
