Hindustan Unilever (HUVR) Consumer Products Global mandate, local upside? We would be wary of looking at Unilever s renewed aggressive focus (and stated targets) on operating margin expansion as a positive for HUVR, for two reasons (1) our (and presumably Street s) numbers for HUVR already bake in a healthy level of EBIT margin expansion (our estimate is a 260 bps EBIT margin expansion from FY2017E levels to 20% in FY2021E) and (2) margin focus, especially when driven as part of a global agenda i.e. without consideration for local factors, runs the risk of dilution in local competitive positioning. Nestle India is a good example. We retain our forecasts and retain our REDUCE rating with an unchanged TP of `860. REDUCE APRIL 10, 2017 UPDATE Coverage view: Cautious Price (`): 925 Target price (`): 860 BSE-30: 29,707 Company data and valuation summary Hindustan Unilever Stock data Forecasts/Valuations 2017 2018E 2019E 52-week range (Rs) (high,low) 954-782 EPS (Rs) 19.3 22.0 25.4 Market Cap.

Yield (%) 1.8 1.9 2.3 The event Unilever sets aggressive margin expansion targets; 360 bps expansion CY2016-20E Shaken perhaps by Kraft s takeover bid, Unilever announced a slew of shareholder value creation moves as an outcome of what it called a strategic review. Among these moves were (1) a fresh net-debt/ EBITDA target of 2X (up from 1.3X in CY2016) and share buyback of EUR5 bn in CY2017, (2) raising dividend by 12%, (3) exiting spreads business, (4) simplifying legal structure, (5) combining foods and refreshment, and (6) creating 20% underlying operating (EBIT) margin by 2020, +360 bps from CY2016 levels of 16.4%. OPM expansion target translates into absolute cost savings of EUR2 bn (net; gross savings of EUR6 bn less reinvestment of EUR4 bn) and bakes in the following segmental margin expansion targets (1) 100 bps improvement in personal care (to 21% from 20%), (2) 600 bps expansion in home care margins (to 16% from 10%), and (3) 500 bps expansion in food and refreshment segment margins to 21% from 16%. The nub for HUVR parent s target versus local dynamics, what trumps, in case of a conflict HUVR contributed ~8% to Unilever s overall sales in CY2016 while its EBIT contribution to the personal care, home care and food/refreshment segments was 16.3%, 13.2%, and 3.4% respectively. Essentially, HUVR is reasonably important to Unilever and by extension, improvement in HUVR s margins (overall as well as segmental, especially home care) is critical to the parent s aggressive commitments to the Street. It is also important to appreciate the human dimension here; a global assignment is the typical move up for local executives in the Unilever system and to that extent, the parent s targets can assume greater significance in cases where there is a conflict between what s good for the local business and what needs to be done to meet the parent s target. It may mean underinvesting in the local business to deliver on margin targets for that s what keeping the parent happy may mean. Negative implications on the local business health show up over time as Nestle India discovered in the past few years. Rohit Chordia Anand Shah Reiterate REDUCE on the stock; parent s target = near-term margin upside is a weak bull case We fully expect sections of the Street to use this development to create excitement on HUVR. We would be wary of falling for this rather simplistic narrative, for two reasons (1) a good level of margin expansion is already a part of HUVR s forward estimates, and (2) it s risky.

China JV retail increased 47% yoy to 6,424 units in March 2017. In terms of models, volumes of Jaguar F-Pace and Discovery Sport continued to remain strong in March 2017. Discovery Sport volumes grew by 13% yoy even on a high base which is quite positive, in our view. The impact of run-down of old Discovery model moderated in March 2017 as retail sales of new Discovery has commenced and the company has retailed around 5,000 units so far. We expect Discovery volumes to ramp-up over the next 2-3 months as the model gets launched across all major markets. We note that Range Rover and Range Rover Sport volumes also increased by 20% and 12% yoy respectively. Overall, we expect JLR s volume performance to remain strong and the company to deliver 11% volume CAGR over FY2017-19E driven by (1) ramp-up of new Discovery volumes and (2) launch of mid-sized Range Rover Velar in 2HCY17. Lower our margin assumptions for JLR on higher hedge losses; maintain BUY with TP of 540 We lower our FY2018-19E EBITDA margin assumptions for JLR by 40-90 bps as we build in higher forex losses in our estimates (refer to Exhibit 7). We still expect JLR s EBITDA margin to improve to 13.7%/15.6% in FY2018-19E (from 11.4% in FY2017E) led by platform consolidation benefits, non-recurrence of one-off warranty expenses incurred in FY2017 and operating leverage benefits. We also bake in lower profitability in the standalone business due to potential headwinds in the domestic MHCV industry. Consequently, we cut our consolidated FY2017-19E EPS estimates by 7-12%. We reiterate our positive stance on the stock and maintain BUY rating with SOTP-based target price of 540 (from `550 earlier) on roll over of target price to March 2017.

Ashoka Buildcon (ASBL) Infrastructure Testing waters not at the cost of core business. Recent focus on yield generating assets beyond roads should be seen in the context of (1) related investments being a small share of annual EPC cash profits and (2) decent precedent set in T&D of ABL s approach to entering new businesses. These are unlikely to inhibit investments in roads given ABL s (1) strong balance sheet and (2) self-funding nature of HAM projects (support from NHAI, JV partner, EPC margin). The potential uptick in roads ordering would determine ABL s fortunes more than making small investments elsewhere.

Yield (%) 0.9 1.1 1.4 `2.3 bn of equity to lease commercial area near Mumbai airport; expects 20%+ returns ABL recently won the rights to develop and lease two land parcels for commercial activity near the Mumbai International Airport for 49 years. The MIAL project saw interest from ~17 bidders. Adjusted for total leasable area of `1.6 mn square feet, ABL would invest upfront a quantum of ~`6,000 per square feet (psf). Against this it would be earning an eventual annual rental of `1,700 psf beyond the construction period (based on occupancy) less annual lease rental of `100 psf (from year one). ABL expects to earn 20%+ returns over an equity investment of `2.3 bn, assuming a four year construction period and lease rentals at a discount to current rentals in comparable areas. Our preliminary analysis suggests ~18% equity return on this project excluding the EPC margin made. We would include such value into our SoTP once all approvals and financial closure happen. ABL has to obtain approval for changing the development plan and expects construction to start from October 2017. EPC operations generate `2 bn of annual cash profits The `2.3 bn of equity investment into the above land parcels and `0.3 bn in the recently won CGD project combined, yield an annual equity requirement of `0.8-0.9 bn per annum. This is against `2 bn of EPC cash profits. (1) The standalone balance sheet of `20 bn has negligible leverage. (2) The BOT portfolio is also generating small cash profits. (3) Last, but not the least, the 30% share of equity in current and incremental HAM projects does not require material support from EPC cash flows; it can get funded through a combination of support from NHAI and contribution from new JV partner for the 39% stake in ACL it would take of SBI- Macquarie. Potential uptick in roads ordering the key determinant Ashoka Buildcon has been able to grow its order backlog by ~60%in FY2017E based on strong `50 bn order inflows in roads. This is against `~650 bn of potential orders awarded from NHAI in the year. NHAI is likely to cross this mark in FY2018 given government impetus and likely strong start to the year (based on `200 bn of active tenders). In addition, the port/hinterland connectivity projects from Sagarmala and trunk infrastructure projects from DMIC would provide further fillip to orders over FY2018E-22E of reasonably sized road projects. Ashoka Buildcon remains our preferred pick within the roads space. Aditya Mongia Ajinkya Bhat For Private Circulation Only.

Infrastructure Ashoka Buildcon Takeaways from the conference call Won the lease to develop a land parcel in the GVK Sky city project. In the bidding conducted by Mumbai International Airport Limited (MIAL), Ashoka Buildcon won the rights to develop two adjoining land parcels for commercial activity. The key features of the deal include: Total built up area of 1.17 mn sq. ft that can be developed into a leasable area of 1.3X-1.4X. The lease period of 49 years including 3-4 years of the construction period (19 years in the first concession period of MIAL and 30 years in the concession extension period). The company will pay `3.3 bn of refundable security deposit (interest-free) and an annual lease rental of `152 mn with an escalation of 15% every 3 years. Required funding to be raised through a combination of debt and internal accruals. The project will entail a capex of `8.5-9 bn (including refundable deposit) and would require equity contribution of `2.3 bn in the project entity / SPV. This equity component can further be funded by a combination of debt and internal accruals by the parent. The refundable security deposit has to be paid out within 60 days from the date of LOA while the equity components will be infused over 2.5-3 years in the construction period. Lease rental payments to MIAL for the land parcel will start right from the first year of the lease period. The company will have to maintain at least 51% stake in the project until COD + 2 years post which it will be able to fully monetize and exit the project if it decides to do so. Lucrative IRR expected, company testing waters. The management mentioned that the land can be used for any purpose except residential use. The company has not finalized the mix of various offerings on the land (commercial, office space, hospitality, etc.) but plans to start construction by Oct-2017. The land is a clean and fenced and will have all land clearances in place except building plan which the company will have to get approved once finalized. The company expects to receive lease payments to the tune of `130-150/sq. ft once the project is complete that would provide 22%+ equity IRR as per the management. The company also mentioned that among the five land parcels bid out recently, only one other parcel has the permission to develop a commercial project and may potentially compete with Ashoka Buildcon for tenants. The competitive risk thus remains manageable. Given high IRR expectations, the company is currently testing waters in the real estate business and may gradually scale up this segment in the future. Focus on core road infra business reaffirmed. The management reassured investors that there has been no deviation from its focus on the core road infrastructure business. This real estate project is a diversification attempt similar to the city gas distribution project for Ratnagiri won in 2QFY17. The company sees increasing investor interest in yield generating assets and thus monetization of the real estate project would be an available option. Debt to be used only for working capital. The company mentioned a prudent leveraging policy of using debt only for working capital requirements. Incremental equity requirements (`2.5 bn in HAM projects and `2.3 bn in real estate project) will be funded through internal accruals and asset monetization. 14 KOTAK INSTITUTIONAL EQUITIES RESEARCH

Banks India ATTRACTIVE APRIL 10, 2017 UPDATE BSE-30: 29,707 New format; less exciting. RBI s discussion paper on Wholesale and Long-Term Finance Banks (WLTF) is scant on details but looks at building niche banking for project financing. India s prior experience through DFI (Development Finance Institutions) has not been encouraging and we do not see any new arguments favoring this change of view. However, it might be appealing for foreign banks which could look to setting up these formats to service specific customer requirements. PFC and REC can potentially apply for wholesale bank licenses but we do not see this as a big advantage. Wholesale and Long Term Banks is the new type of bank that is likely to be introduced The paper on WLTF is a discussion on the fundamental need and merits/ demerits, if any. These banks would look to lend in the infrastructure and core industries segment; assets with long gestation periods. WLTF may also offer investment banking services in equity/debt/forex markets. They would be funded primarily though large ticket deposits (`100 mn and above)/bonds and not focused on savings deposits. The minimum capital prescribed is `10 bn. Cyclicality of the business makes it a challenge to build a positive view to this format India s experience with Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) leaves clear lessons on the difficulties with such concentrated business models. High capital consumption in a few sectors like infrastructure, metals and textiles offer limited comfort in WLTF s ability to manage a crisis making these formats pro-cyclical in nature. RBI should look to introduce dynamic provisions to reduce this risk. Experience suggests that such institutions (ICICI, IDBI and IDFC) have preferred migrating to banking models. We do not see the proposed structure presenting a compelling case for a new wholesale banking format or a threat to traditional universal banks. Building a deeper corporate bond market can be a useful alternative to WLTF Instead of a bank-led model, it would be useful if we could look to build a stronger corporate bond market. This would entail project financing risks taken by banks as they have the requisite expertise to evaluate viability/construction related risks while the bond market would be able to lower the cost of projects post construction. Further, corporates are expected to keep a much stronger discipline on their capital expenditure programs if disproportionate financing comes through bond markets. Continuous exchange of information between universal banks, rating agencies, credit information bureaus like CRILIC and bond markets can offer a strong feedback loop critical to reduce the risks in the business. RBI s own study of banks that offer similar services shows that (1) such institutions have not seen too many players in recent years, (2) they are owned by the government and were established decades back to promote specific industrial development (3) business models have changed over time. Foreign banks which look to fund specific local corporates in India could look at this model. No big significant impact for PFC and REC PFC and REC can potentially apply for WLTF. In the light of restrictions on diversifications to retail/short tenure loans and time deposits, we do not think that a wholesale bank will be a game changer. Notably, both enjoy AAA-credit rating on the back of their government ownership and relative importance to the power sector. As such, access to diversified funding sources is a concern. Exhibit 3 shows REC has a well-diversified funding base with just 1% of borrowings from bank loans. In the light of their strong financial flexibility, these NBFCs do not have substantial cash on the balance sheet; in that sense, the CRR requirement may be a drag.
