Investment Rationale
The company’s capacity expansion plan is on track. Furthermore, it is strongly positioned in its key markets of the North and East region which are expected to exhibit an encouraging growth supported by higher cement demand in the region. The company outlook appears robust with a strong position in the demand-accretive North and East region, new capacity addition, and higher sale of high-margin premium products. Furthermore, a significant pick-up in infrastructure activities backed by the National Infrastructure Pipeline (NIP) is likely to see better traction with new project awards in the medium to long term, which would accelerate cement demand further. However, the stock is currently trading at 18x of FY23E EV/EBITDA which provides little upside from the current levels. Hence the brokerage maintains HOLD rating on the stock. It values the company at 19x of its FY23E EV/EBITDA to arrive at a target price of Rs 30,000/share, implying an upside of 5% from CMP.
