This is the 7 th consecutive quarter of revenue de-growth. With a new and stable government at the centre, hopes of a turnaround in power sector have risen. But with PLFs at 20 year low, meaningful revival will take time to fructify. BHEL s order inflows will remain muted for FY15/16. BHEL s rigid fixed costs, upcoming pay revisions and pricing pressure will ensure low teen RoEs in the foreseeable future. At CMP the stock is trading at 14x FY16E EPS which we believe is expensive given low teen RoE and high earnings volatility. We retain our EPS estimates and TP of Rs 188/sh (12x FY16E EPS). Retain SELL. Order inflow for 1QFY15 was Rs 11.3bn driven primarily by industry sector inflow of Rs 8.2bn. Closing order book was Rs 974bn (lowest in last 6 years). Management mentioned about 15-17 GW of projects to be ordered by the end of FY15. The company is well placed (L1) in 4GW of these projects. Nearly all the projects in pipe line are from state and central sectors. Management mentioned about Rs 120bn of slow moving orders, largely in the private sector. Net cash at the end of the quarter was Rs 8bn. With demand growth at 20 year low, all India coal plant PLF has crashed to 65% in FY14 and nearly 30GW of capacity under construction has no long term PPA. Thus, even if the economy picks up, new ordering for power plants will be preceded by increase in PLF and absorption of untied capacity. We expect low capacity utilisation to continue as BHEL s capacity of 20GW is more than the expected yearly ordering for the foreseeable future. 7th pay commission recommendations (to be implemented from 4QFY16) will put further pressure on margins. Hence, with margins capped by competition, low capacity utilisation and rigid cost structure we see a sustained period of low RoE for BHEL. Retain SELL.
