LIMITATIONS:-

TIME CONSTRAINTS: - We had to learn a lot in very less time which was a great challenge if there was some more time it could be practically practiced to enhance our knowledge.

INVESTMENT TARGET:- The main target to find an investor for ULIP was a challenging task because people either had already invested in some or the other insurance scheme or do not want to invest due to their own reasons.

TECHNICAL CONSTRAINTS: - Due to the lack of hardware like the projector etc., the scheduled task of learning Technical Analysis needed to be postponed.

Unavailability of some documents which were confidential.

Employees were busy in their work so they could not give more information.

There may be errors due to the bias of the respondents.

The study is limited to my experience and knowledge.

Scope of the project:- The research and report can be used by the company to improve as well as remove the limitations. We worked as an intern and can judge the Company from an outsider’s perspective which is valuable certainly.

2.3 COMPETITORS OF BIRLA SUN LIFE WEALTH MANAGEMENT

The top asset management companies in India have been performing fairly well of late in spite of the condition of the mutual fund investors in the present economic scenario. During the 2011-12 fiscal the leading companies in this segment have, in fact, been profitable in their business operations.

HDFC Mutual Fund has been the biggest performer in 2011-12 fiscal, replacing Reliance Mutual Fund. In 2012, Reliance has earned an approximate net profit of INR 276 Cr., while in 2011 the same figure had stood at INR 261 Cr. This represents a growth of 5.6 percent on a year-on-year basis. In the same period HDFC Mutual Fund, which is the biggest of its kind in India, has gone up from INR 242 Cr. to INR269 Cr.

ICICI Asset Management Company, which is the third biggest fund based organization in the country, saw a profit of 22.5 percent earning INR 88 Cr. in 2012 as opposed to INR 72 Cr. in 2011. However, Birla Sun Life AMC (Asset Management Company) saw a 30 percent dip in its profits in 2012.

UTI Asset Management The major shareowners of UTI Asset Management are State Bank of India, bank of Baroda, Punjab National Bank, and Life Insurance Corporation. It is the oldest provider of mutual fund services in India.

At the end of 2011-12 UTI's assets were valued at INR 11,387.9 million as opposed to INR 10,653.9 million. In the same year its aggregate revenue was INR 4,475.1 million and its profits were INR 1,340.9 million. The company has also performed well in terms of achievements like winning 8 prizes at the ICRA Mutual Fund Awards 2012 and the Star Fund House of the Year - DEBT Award in the same year.

Tata Asset Management company enjoys the support of Tata Group, which is one of the premier brands in the country and presently caters to several lakh investors. It manages assets that are worth approximately INR 20,247 Cr.

In 2011-12 the total worth of the equities and liabilities of Tata Asset Management Company was INR 1,88,54,02,125 while in 2010-11 the figure read INR 1,67,43,12,573.

3.1 MUTUAL FUNDA mutual fund is a type of professionally managed collective investment vehicle that

pools money from many investors to purchase securities. Most mutual funds are "open-ended," meaning investors can buy or sell shares of the fund at any time. Mutual funds have advantages compared to direct investing in individual securities. These include:

Increased diversification Daily liquidity Professional investment management Ability to participate in investments that may be available only to larger investors Service and convenience Government oversight Ease of comparison

Mutual funds have disadvantages as well, which include: Fees Less control over timing of recognition of gains Less predictable income No opportunity to customize.

3.2 TypesThere are 3 principal types of mutual funds: open-end funds, unit investment trusts (UITs);

and closed-end funds

Open-end fundsOpen-end mutual funds must be willing to buy back their shares from their

investors at the end of every business day at the net asset value computed that day. Most open-end funds also sell shares to the public every business day; these shares are also priced at net asset value. A professional investment manager oversees the portfolio, buying and selling securities as appropriate. The total investment in the fund will vary based on share purchases, share redemptions and fluctuation in market valuation. There is no legal limit on the number of shares that can be issued.

Closed-end fundsClosed-end funds generally issue shares to the public only once, when they are

created through an initial public offering. Their shares are then listed for trading on a stock exchange. Investors who no longer wish to invest in the fund cannot sell their shares back to the fund (as they can with an open end fund). Instead, they must sell their shares to another investor in the market; the price they receive may be significantly different from net asset value. It may be at a "premium" to net asset value (meaning that it is higher than net asset value) or, more commonly, at a "discount" to net asset value (meaning that it is lower than net asset value). A professional investment manager oversees the portfolio, buying and selling securities as appropriate.

Unit investment trusts

8 Page


Unit investment trusts or UITs issue shares to the public only once, when they are created. UITs generally have a limited life span, established at creation. Investors can redeem shares directly with the fund at any time (as with an open-end fund) or wait to redeem upon termination of the trust. Less commonly, they can sell their shares in the open market. Unit investment trusts do not have a professional investment manager. Their portfolio of securities is established at the creation of the UIT and does not change.

Exchange-traded fundsA relatively recent innovation, the exchange-traded fund or ETF is often

structured as an open-end investment company, though ETFs may also be structured as unit investment trusts, partnerships, investments trust, grantor trusts or bonds (as an exchange-traded note). ETFs combine characteristics of both closed-end funds and open-end funds. Like closed end funds, ETFs are traded throughout the day on a stock exchange at a price determined by the market. However, as with open-end funds, investors normally receive a price that is close to net asset value. To keep the market price close to net asset value, ETFs issue and redeem large blocks of their shares with institutional investors.

4.1 RESEARCH TECHNIQUE

The project is on equity research analysis of the sectors. Hence study has to be done on the basis of information and news available about the sectors i.e. secondary data by various modes. This research had to be completed by doing Fundamental analysis and Technical analysis of the companies.

Secondary data was collected from the internet, company websites, magazines and various articles. However the main source of information is Annual Report issued by the companies and also quarterly reports of the current year showing their performances in current market scenario.

Firstly data was analyzed on the basis of the industry. The industry i.e. Oil and Gas industry is focused on and its performance and relation with the Indian economy was monitored and then specific stocks were chosen to be invested in depending upon the fundamentals of the company stocks. These stocks were individually analyzed and then measured whether it would give maximum returns if invested in.

The research on the sectors and companies in those sectors is explained in the later part of the report.

10 Page


4.2 FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS:

Fundamental analysis of a business involves analyzing its financial statements and health, its management and competitive advantages, and its competitors and markets. When analyzing a stock, futures contract, or currency using fundamental analysis there are two basic approaches one can use; bottom up analysis and top down analysis. The term is used to distinguish such analysis from other types of investment analysis, such as quantitative analysis and technical analysis. Fundamental analysis is performed on historical and present data, but with the goal of making financial forecasts. There are several possible objectives:

To conduct a company stock valuation and predict its probable price evolution,

To make a projection on its business performance,

To evaluate its management and make projected decisions,

Fundamental analysis includes: Economic analysis Industry analysis Company analysis

On the basis of these three analyses the intrinsic value of the shares are determined. This is considered as the true value of the share. If the intrinsic value is higher than the market price it is recommended to buy the share. If it is equal to market price then hold the share and if it is less than the market price then sell the shares.

4.3 Sector Analysis

Sector Analysis was done on the basis of research and understanding various companies of the sectors which had strong Fundamentals over other companies of the same sector. Companies’ growth and past performance was taken into account along with its top-line (Revenue) and Bottom-line (Profits) for that period. Companies with strong fundamentals were preferred.

The Ratios that were taken into consideration were:

1. P/E ratio-

In general, a high P/E suggests that investors are expecting higher earnings growth in the future compared to companies with a lower P/E. However, the P/E ratio doesn't tell us the whole story by itself. It's usually more useful to compare the P/E ratios of one company to other companies in the same industry, to the market in general or against the company's own historical P/E. It would not be useful for investors using the P/E ratio as a basis for their investment to compare the P/E of a technology company (high P/E) to a utility company (low P/E) as each industry has much different growth prospects. The P/E is sometimes referred to as the "multiple", because it shows how much investors are willing to pay per rupee of earnings. If a company were currently trading at a multiple (P/E) of 20, the interpretation is that an investor is willing to pay Rs.20 for Re.1 of current earnings.

It is important that investors note an important problem that arises with the P/E measure, and to avoid basing a decision on this measure alone. The denominator (earnings) is based on an accounting measure of earnings that is susceptible to forms of manipulation, making the quality of the P/E only as good as the quality of the underlying earnings number.

Generally a high P/E ratio means that investors are anticipating higher growth in the future.

The average market P/E ratio is 20-25 times earnings.

The P/E ratio can use estimated earnings to get the forward looking P/E ratio.

Companies that are making losses do not have a P/E ratio. FORMULA:-

12 Page


2. PEG ratio: The PEG ratio that indicates an over or underpriced stock varies by industry and by company type; though a broad rule of thumb is that a PEG ratio below one is desirable. Also, the accuracy of the PEG ratio depends on the inputs used. Using historical growth rates, for example, may provide an inaccurate PEG ratio if future growth rates are expected to deviate from historical growth rates. To distinguish between calculation methods using future growth and historical growth, the terms "forward PEG" and "trailing PEG" are sometimes used.

FORMULA

4.4 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS:

Technical analysis is a financial term used to denote a security analysis discipline for forecasting the direction of prices through the study of past market data, primarily price and volume. Behavioral economics and quantitative analysis incorporate technical analysis, which being an aspect of active management stands in contradiction to much of modern portfolio theory.

Technical analysis employs models and trading rules based on price and volume transformations, such as the relative strength index, moving averages, regressions, inter-market and intra-market price correlations, business cycles, stock market cycles or, classically, through recognition of chart patterns. Technical analysis stands in contrast to the fundamental analysis approach to security and stock analysis. Technical analysis analyzes price, volume and other market information, whereas fundamental analysis looks at the actual facts of the company, market, currency or commodity. Most large brokerage, trading group, or financial institutions will typically have both a technical analysis and fundamental analysis team.

Concepts

Resistance — a price level that may prompt a net increase of selling activity

Support — a price level that may prompt a net increase of buying activity

Trending — the phenomenon by which price movement tends to persist in one direction for an extended period of time

Chart patterns— distinctive pattern created by the movement of security prices on a chart

14 Page


4.5 Chart Types:

There are three main types of charts that are used by investors and traders depending on the information that they are seeking and their individual skill levels. The chart types are: the line chart, the bar chart, the candlestick chart.

Line Chart:

The most basic of the three charts is the line charts because it represents only the closing prices over a set period of time. The line is formed by connecting the closing prices over the time frame. Line charts do not provide visual information of the trading range for the individual points such as the high, low and opening prices. However, the closing price is often considered to be the most important price in stock data compared to the high and low for the day and this is why it is the only value used in line charts.

15 Page


Bar Charts

The bar chart expands on the line chart by adding several more key pieces of information to each data point. The chart is made up of a series of vertical lines that represent each data point. This vertical line represents the high and low for the trading period, along with the closing price. The close and open are represented on the vertical line by a horizontal dash.

The opening price on a bar chart is illustrated by the dash that is located on the left side of the vertical bar. Conversely, the close is represented by the dash on the right. Generally, if the left dash (open) is lower than the right dash (close) then the bar will be shaded black, representing an up period for the stock, which means it has gained value. A bar that is colored red signals that the stock has gone down in value over that period. When this is the case, the dash on the right (close) is lower than the dash on the left (open).

16 Page


Candlestick Charts:

The candlestick chart is similar to a bar chart, but it differs in the way that it is visually constructed. Similar to the bar chart, the candlestick also has a thin vertical line showing the period's trading range. The difference comes in the formation of a wide bar on the vertical line, which illustrates the difference between the open and close. And, like bar charts, candlesticks also rely heavily on the use of colors to explain what has happened during the trading period. There are two color constructs for days up and one for days that the price falls. When the price of the stock is up and closes above the opening trade, the candlestick will usually be white or clear. If the stock has traded down for the period, then the candlestick will usually be red or black, depending on the site. If the stock's price has closed above the previous day’s close but below the day's open, the candlestick will be black or filled with the color that is used to indicate an up day. Figure 3: A candlestick chart

4.6 Chart Patterns:

Head and Shoulders This is one of the most popular and reliable chart patterns in technical analysis. Head and shoulders is a reversal chart pattern that when formed, signals that the security is likely to move against the previous trend Head and shoulders top is a chart pattern that is formed at the high of an upward movement and signals that the upward trend is about to end. Head and shoulders bottom, also known as inverse head and shoulders is the lesser known of the two, but is used to signal a reversal in a downtrend.

Cup and Handle A cup with handle chart is a bullish

continuation pattern in which the upward trend has paused but will continue in an upward direction once the pattern is confirmed.

This price pattern forms what looks like a cup, which is preceded by an upward trend. The handle follows the cup formation and is formed by a generally downward/sideways movement in the security's price. Once the price movement pushes above the resistance lines formed in the handle, the upward trend can continue. There is a wide ranging time frame for this type of pattern, with the span ranging from several months to more than a year.

Double Tops and Bottoms This chart pattern is another well-known pattern that signals a trend reversal - it is considered to be one of the most reliable and is commonly used. These patterns are formed after a sustained trend and signal to chartists that the trend is about to reverse. The pattern is created when a price movement tests support or resistance levels twice and is unable to break through. This pattern is often used to signal intermediate and long-term trend reversals.

18 Page


Triple Tops and Bottoms Triple tops and triple bottoms are another type of reversal chart pattern in chart analysis. These are not as prevalent in charts as head and shoulders and double tops and bottoms, but they act in a similar fashion. These two chart patterns are formed when the price movement tests a level of support or resistance three times and is unable to break through; this signals a reversal of the prior trend.

Rounding Bottom A rounding bottom, also referred to as a saucer bottom, is a long-term reversal pattern that signals a shift from a downward trend to an upward trend. This pattern is traditionally thought to last anywhere from several months to several years.

Hotels Sector Analysis Report

5.1 Hotels Sector Analysis Report

India occupies the sixty-eighth position among the top tourist destinations in the world for 2011. To encourage the tourism sector, the government in recent times, has taken some measures which will benefit the sector. The Centre and States are also working out a PPP (Public-Private-Partnership) model to increase hotel capacity.

Government of India increased spend on advertising campaigns (including for the campaigns 'Incredible India' and 'Athithi Devo Bhava' - Visitors are like God) to reinforce the rich variety of tourism in India. The ministry promoted India as a sate tourist destination and undertook various measures, such as stepping up vigilance in key cities and at historically important tourist sites.

According to the latest Tourism Satellite Accounting (TSA) research, released by the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), the demand for travel and tourism in India is expected to grow by 8.2 % between 2010 and 2019. This will place India at the third position in the world. India's travel and tourism sector is expected to be the second largest employer in the world. Capital investment in India's travel and tourism sector is expected to grow at 8.8 % between 2010 and 2019. The report forecasts India to get more capital investment in the travel and tourism sector and is projected to become the fifth fastest growing business travel destination from 2010 through 2020.

India's rapid economic growth has already set the stage for fundamental changes in the country's population. With more disposable income, the demand for travel and tourism has also grown. Although, currently domestic tourists constitute a very small chuck of the total tourist pie, the segment is growing

21 Page


5.2 KEY POINT

Supply We have a shortage of 100,000 guest rooms short in the country. This is expected to keep ARRs high for the next few years.

Demand Largely depends on business travelers but tourist traffic is also on the rise. Demand normally spurts in the peak season between November and March.

Barriers to entry High capital costs, poor infrastructure facilities and scarcity of land especially in the metros.

Bargaining power of suppliers

Limited due to higher competition, especially in the metros.

Bargaining power of customers

Higher in metro cities due to increasing room supply.

Competition Intense in metro cities, slowly picking up in secondary cities. Competition has picked up due to the entry of foreign hotel chains.

5.3 Current Scenario of Sector.

22 Page


The performance of the hotel industry is directly connected with global and local economic growth and investor confidence. A strong underlying economy is a pre-requisite for sustained recovery. Unfortunately, the year 2011 has not been a year of economic recovery either in India or globally. After two exceptionally bad years, the global hospitality industry was expected to recover in 2011. Despite encouraging signs in the first half of 2011, there was growing uncertainty during the latter part of the year. As a result, recovery has been fragile during 2011. The situation in India mirrors this overall global trend.

As per statistics by the Indian Ministry of Tourism, the foreign tourist arrivals in India for 2011, has been 6.29 million which is an 8.9% increase over 5.8 million tourists of 2010, the growth being higher than the global scenario but less than the overall Asia-Pacific region. Foreign Exchange Earnings from tourism increased to Rs 775 bn in 2011, from Rs 648 bn in 2010, with a growth rate in earnings of 19.6% over 2010. Extension of Visa on Arrival scheme to six more countries (Cambodia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Laos and Myanmar) has led to growth in foreign tourist arrivals.

In terms of hospitality industry performance in India, the overall rates, occupancies and RevPAR (average daily room rate) have been stagnant owing to the impact of increased supply in the market and the general recessionary environment.

Supply overhang in certain cities, increase in food and fuel costs and rising interest rates eroded the margins for the Indian hotel industry. The balance sheets of hotel companies remained under stress on account of acquisitions of land banks at unrealistically high prices in the past and the resultant rise in debt levels.

RevPAR= Rooms Revenue/ Rooms Available RevPAR is revenue per available room, Rooms Revenue is the revenue generated by room sales Rooms Available is the number of rooms available for sale in the time period

5.4 Prospects

23 Page


In the long term, the demand-supply gap in India is very real and that there is need for more hotels in most cities. The shortage is especially true within the budget and the mid market segment. There is an urgent need for budget and mid market hotels in the country as travellers look for safe and affordable accommodation. Various domestic and international brands have made significant inroads into this space and more are expected to follow as the potential for this segment of hotels becomes more obvious.

The United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) expects growth to continue for the tourism sector in 2012, although at a slower rate. It forecasts international tourist arrivals to grow in the range of 3% to 4% in 2012. WTTC indicates that this growth will be moderate as the bounce-back for tourism destinations that faced specific challenges last year, will be offset by a weaker performance in other countries. Travel & tourism in China, India, Japan (bounce-back), Latin America and Africa is expected to perform well in 2012. UNWTO predicts that India will receive 25 million foreign tourists by the year 2015.

Despite the economic and political scenarios worldwide, demand for business travel has remained relatively robust. Companies are likely to increase spends and the multiplier effect of healthy salary increases will drive discretionary spending, especially on leisure travel. The affluent segments plan to spend more on travel in 2012, creating opportunities for the hospitality sector in the luxury space.

India's room supply pipeline represents 17% of the Asia-Pacific pipeline. It was moving at a CAGR of 10.8% for last 10 years and is now poised to grow at a CAGR of 6% in next 5 years. The intense supply pipeline would be backed by addition of room capacity by all the hotels both in India and Internationally. The supply pipeline would beef up also on account of improved foreign tourist arrivals, corporate travels, etc. International hotels like Carlson, Strawood, Marriot, etc are the ones which have chalked out plans to acquire the sufficient market share, thus, giving a thrust to the Indian supply pipeline.

5.5 Identifying a hotel stock: Do's and don'ts

24 Page


How to analyse a company? This is the first question a retail investor has in mind before taking

investment decisions. In continuation to the article last week on ways and means to identify an

FMCG stock, consider key factors to be borne in mind when it comes to identifying a Hotel

stock.

Unlike FMCG, auto or even banking, hotel industry is more global in nature. As a result, geo-

political events, say September 11 attack, play a vital role in influencing tourist arrivals into and

outside India. The ability of a player in the sector to attract the bulk of tourists coming into India

and travel within the Indian border depends on select factors. These include the strength of the

property portfolio (whether near a heritage site, near airport, commercial capital and so on) and

brand awareness. For example, Taj (Indian Hotels) and Oberoi (EIH) are generic names in India

when it comes to premium hotel chains.

Normally, hotels are capital intensive in nature having long gestation periods, which not only has

a bearing on the free cash flows of hotels but also affects the return on capital employed (ROCE)

for a period of time.

Revenues for a hotel chain are a factor of occupancy rate (number of rooms occupied) and

average room rates (popularly termed as ARRs). Revenues are also derived from food and

beverages, management services and so on. Consider key factors that influence occupancy rate

and ARRs.

25 Page


5.6 Occupancy rates

Consider the chart below. The hotel sector benefits from both holiday and business travel.

Holiday travel in India is generally seasonal in nature. Historically, over 60% of total tourist

arrivals into the country is during the period between September-May. On the other hand,

business travel is a factor of various factors. This includes government's effort to promote India

as a tourist destination, long-term economic growth prospects and higher foreign participation

arising by hike in FDI and FII holding limits in Indian companies and joint ventures.

For the last few years inbound (coming into the country) tourists have been around 2.5 m while

out bound (going out of the country) tourists have been around 30 m. Out of the inbound, a large

part of the travelers to the country are of the business class, while the rest are leisure segment.

Connectivity between cities in the form of better road infrastructure, airports and seaports also

play a vital role in increasing the share of India in the global tourist pie. India is a country of

various cultures and has some of the world-class heritage sites, which when promoted in the

global arena, can attract the global tourist.

On the domestic leisure travel front (i.e. people traveling within India for both commercial and

leisure reasons), there is lot of seasonality involved. Besides, as income increases, aspiration

level of the population also gains ground and consequently, spills over into better occupancy

rates for hotel chains. While it may not be true for luxury hotels, players in the budget hotel

sector and time-share segment benefit in a large way.

26 Page


5.7 Average room rates (ARRs)

Without getting into complexities, there are three classes of rooms in a hotel i.e. business, leisure

and luxury. It is important to understand that room rates are less elastic to a fall in price at the

higher end of the segment (luxury) than at the lower end of the spectrum (business/leisure).

Therefore, even in a downturn, players like Indian Hotels are relatively able to maintain higher

operating margins than EIH. Established players in India have an edge over MNCs and the

unorganized segment, due to properties near heritage sites.

Competition also plays a vital role in determining the sector's ARRs. Currently, the big hotels

have average occupancies of 60%. This points to excess supply. That itself is sometimes a

dampener on ARRs.

The global scene

International hotels are derive a big chunk of revenues from casinos and betting arenas. Margins

in this segment are also higher. But for Indian hotel majors, setting up casinos and betting arenas

is not allowed according to Indian laws. However, when domestic hotels are compared to

international hotels then they are fairly competitive in terms of average room revenues.

27 Page


How to put a value to a hotel chain? Net Asset Value (NAV) is the answer.

For arriving at a Net Asset Value

Setting up a 5 star hotel = Rs 30-35 m*

Add = Cash + investments

Deduct = Debt

Net Asset Value (NAV) Total

Divide No. of Shares

NAV per share = Rs x

Compare with current market price

* depending upon the area of setup

Coming to the NAV of domestic hotels, on the basis of replacement cost method let us see the

value of the hotels at current prices. By NAV we can arrive at the actual value of the properties

of the hotels. Based on that, NAV per share can be calculated, which gives the actual value the

shareholder should be paying for being a part of the company. However, for hotels, which have

been in the industry for a period of time their NAV would be on the higher side, as the property

bought would be at a much lower rate than the present times. Like for instance the NAV of Taj

and Oberoi Hotels would be higher than that of ITC Hotels and other hotels.

Key things to look at before investing in a hotel stock

1. What are the strategy and the capex plans of the company over the next 5-10 years? As

mentioned earlier, hotels are capital intensive in nature having long gestation periods,

which not only has a bearing on the free cash flows of hotels but also affects the return on

capital employed (ROCE) for a period of time. So the bigger the capex plan, the more

caution one should exercise. This criteria is favorable for established hotel chains.

2. Economic cycles also determine earnings prospects (during a downturn, properties are

cheaper and hotel chain generally tend to increase capacity). Moreover, in tough times

like September 11, hotel stocks take a beating. It is at this time that the established

players should be looked at, for when the concerns fade away; these will be the first ones

to benefit from an economic upturn.

28 Page


3. A hotel chain should not be leveraged on any specific segment i.e. luxury or leisure.

Though elasticity is lower at the premium end, when tourist flow is affected, this player

could be the worst hit. Diversification reduces volatility in earnings, to an extent.

While growth prospects continue to remain heartening, the sector is typically a high-risk-high-

return game due to the vulnerability to external factors. Buyers beware!

Auto-ancillary Analysis Report

6.1 Auto-ancillary Analysis Report

The fortunes of the auto ancillary sector are closely linked to those of the auto sector.

Demand swings in any of the segments (cars, two-wheelers, commercial vehicles) have

an impact on auto ancillary demand. Demand is derived from original equipment

manufacturers (OEM) as well as the replacement market.

Margins in the replacement market are higher than the OEM market. The OEM market is

very competitive and component manufacturers have to 4 compromise on margins to bag

bulk orders. Moreover, delivery schedules and quality standards have to be adhered to

very strictly.

Indian auto ancillary sector has traditionally suffered from poor quality. While this still

holds true for the unorganized sector, the organized sector has been resorting to increased

automation to reduce the defect levels.

Lower labour costs give Indian auto ancillary companies an absolute cost advantage. To

put things in perspective, ACMA numbers suggest that wage cost accounts for 3% to

15% of revenues for Indian manufacturers as compared to 20% to 40% for US players.

India's strength in exports lies in forgings, castings and plastics historically. But this is

changing with more component manufactures investing in up gradation of technology in

recent years.

36 Page


6.2 KEY POINT

Supply Low for high technology products. Unorganized sector dominates the domestic component market due to excise benefits. Generally, excess supply persists.

Demand Linked to automobile demand. Export demand is linked to the increasing acceptance towards outsourcing.

Barriers to entry Capital, technology, OEM relationships, customer service, distribution network to meet replacement demand.

Bargaining power of suppliers

Low with OEMs. Relatively high in the replacement market

Bargaining power of customers

Companies operating in the export market face competition at a global level. At the domestic level, market structure is fragmented for a large number of ancillary products. Most companies adopt low cost and differentiation strategies. In some products (like batteries), only two or three companies control over 80% of the market.

Competition Will intensify, as global players will enter the market leading to consolidation. Dereservation of SSI will result in access to capital and technology

37 Page


6.3 Current Scenario of Sector.

After a strong FY10 and FY11, the Indian automobile industry faced a slowdown in FY12 mirroring the broader economic trend. Consequently, the passenger vehicles and CV segment witnessed a tepid growth of 5% and 18% respectively for the full year.

Despite this, auto component industry managed to do reasonably well during the year as Bharat Forge and Exide reported 25% YoY and 12% YoY growth in sales respectively. Despite subdued economic conditions in the developed world, some players were able to put up a strong show in exports as well. For instance, Bharat Forge saw its exports grow by an impressive 42% YoY on account of new customer additions and product development.

Just like the auto industry, the auto ancillary industry witnesses a rise in input costs during the year. As a consequence, rising input costs exerted pressure on margins and those who were able to keep other cost heads under control were able to maintain margins if not expand them.

38 Page


6.4 Prospects

There has been a conscious effort by manufacturers to improve productivity of the suppliers in the past few years. Though the number of active vendors has declined significantly for auto manufacturers, technology transfer and fresh fund infusions have resulted in improved productivity in the remaining ones. Relaxation of FDI norms for the small-scale sector could emerge as one of the key growth drivers in the long run. The Indian automotive components industry has lined up sizeable investment schedules for the next few years.

The automobile sector is cyclical and dependent on the growth of the economy and improvement in infrastructure. Factors like increased public spending, favorable interest rates and general improvement in per capita income point towards higher demand for automobiles in the future. Also, government's initiatives in the infrastructure sector such as the Golden Quadrilateral project and NHDP (National Highway Development Programme) are likely to give boost to four-wheeler sales especially CVs. Just to put things in perspective, we expect CV segment to grow by 7% to 8%, 2-wheeler demand to increase by around 12% to 15% and passenger car sales growth at 10% to 12% over the medium to long term. This is a positive for auto ancillary manufacturers.

In the long term, the growth of this sector will depend partly on pace of indigenization levels across all segments. The prospects look bright as most companies are increasing the indigenous components, in an effort to reduce their currency losses and remain competitive. Also, the fact that auto manufacturers like Ford, Hyundai and Maruti are exporting cars, make the prospects look encouraging.

Margins are likely to come under pressure in the long term because as competition increases, manufacturers will find it difficult to increase prices and will try to cut costs. The burden will eventually fall on auto ancillary players. In the near future though, companies will need to have manufacturing lines that can be adapted for new models, have strong technology backing, an ability to export to developed markets, market dominance in specific products and a growth plan driven by volumes and product innovations. Companies will have to focus on quality and abide by delivery schedules if they want to survive. As manufacturers sourcing components are keen to get components from fewer sources in future, this will lead to consolidation in the sector.

The growing number of Free and Preferential trade agreements being signed by India with countries like Thailand, Singapore and other ASEAN countries will hurt the cost competitiveness of Indian companies as Indian players play significantly higher duties than their Asian counterparts. Therefore, Indian companies might lose out on big orders if the duty structure is not rationalized.

6.5 Identifying an auto ancillary stock: Do's and don'ts

In the outsourcing space, the prospects for auto ancillary manufacturers are bright from the long-

term perspective. But identifying the right stock from this sector becomes difficult on account of

technical complexities involved and higher nature of fragmentation of the industry. In this

article, we have made an attempt to simplify this process and help investors identify a good auto

ancillary stock.

The Indian auto component industry is highly fragmented in nature and has 416 players,

employing 250,000 people. The output of the Indian auto component segment, as per ACMA,

was estimated at around US$ 5.1 bn (Rs 245 bn) in FY03.

Since an auto assembly involves large number of parts, ACMA has classified sector companies

on the basis of components that they supply to auto manufacturers. The following table lists the

industry segmentation on the basis of components, their contribution to the overall industry

revenues and some of the leading players in those segments.

Sub-groups Products % to total products

Leading companies

Engine Parts Pistons, piston rings, fuel injection pumps

24.0% Ucal Fuel, MICO, Lucas

Transmission & Steering parts

Transmission gears, axles and wheels

16.0% Sona Kaya, ZF Steering

Suspension & Braking parts

Leaf springs, shock absorbers 12.0% Gabriel, Munjal Showa

Electrical Spark plugs, batteries, starter motors

8.0% Exide, MICO,

Equipment Dashboard instruments 7.0% Motherson Sumi, Lumax

Others Fan belts, sheet metal parts 33.0% Rico Auto, Sundram

Since auto ancillary companies mainly act as vendors, it is extremely important for them to

remain competitive, both in terms of cost as well as quality. As a consequence, the profitability

40 Page


of the company at the operating level assumes great significance. Therefore, we consider

operating profits as a good starting point in separating a good auto ancillary company from the

rest.

Let us throw some light on the various operating parameters presented in the flow chart below:

6.6 Operating profits:

The operating profit of an auto ancillary company is the difference between the revenues earned

and the expenses incurred. We shall now focus on the revenue side first.

An auto ancillary company can generate revenues from two major sources, the first is from

supplies to OEM (original equipment manufacturers) and the second is through after market

sales.

With the advent of the best manufacturing practices in the domestic auto industry, auto players

have significantly cut the number of auto ancillary manufacturers they source their components

from and in line with the global trend, this has led to the tierisation.

Naturally, the auto ancillary manufacturer, which directly supplies to the OEMs and offers more

value added products, is the one that is known as a Tier I player. Further, the components and

sub-assemblies required by the Tier I players are sourced from Tier II and Tier III suppliers.

Thus, an auto ancillary company can generate its revenues from any one of the above-mentioned

41 Page


three ways. In this sector, Tier I players on account of their direct interface with OEMs have a

better bargaining power and consequently enjoy higher margins. On the flip side, these players

have to be very particular about their quality and have to keep high levels of inventory, thus

increasing working capital needs.

Apart from direct supplies, an auto ancillary player can also generate revenues from after

market sales i.e. it can have a presence in the replacement market. Here, the margins are not

only higher on account of superior realisations, but it also provides a cushion against slowdown

in the auto industry when the demand from OEMs decline.

Thus, while selecting an auto ancillary stock, it becomes necessary to delve into the position of

the company on the supply value chain and at the same time, check whether the company derives

some of its revenues from after market sales. The higher the company on the value chain and

larger the percentage of revenues derived from the after market, the better it is.

Since companies in the industry are suppliers to the auto industry, the performance of the auto

industry has the single largest impact on the fortunes of the auto ancillary industry. Therefore, it

becomes imperative for an investor to track the performance of the auto industry (both domestic

as well as international), in order to determine the growth prospects of an auto ancillary

company.

What would happen if an auto ancillary company generates majority of its revenues by supplying

to just a single auto company and the latter shuts down? Not surprisingly, even the auto ancillary

company might have to shut down or scout for other clients, which would be hard to come by.

Therefore, in order to avoid such a scenario, an investor should look for companies that have

adequate client diversification, both in the domestic as well as international markets. The larger

and stronger the number of clients, the lesser the risk for the auto ancillary company. Apart from

client diversification, geographical diversification, where the company derives a good part of its

revenues from exports or supplies to overseas players is also an important criterion for

identifying a good auto ancillary company.

Since auto ancillary companies usually supply to leading automakers, quality issue becomes

extremely important. This assumes even more serious dimensions while supplying to foreign

auto majors. Even a small defect in quality could lead to heavy penalties. Therefore, if a

company has some sort of recognition such as the Deming quality awards or best supplier

award from respected auto companies, it always adds to its credibility and ability to win

lucrative contracts.

42 Page


Thus, after looking into the major aspects of the revenues side, it becomes clear that companies

with more value added products and sufficient client and geographical diversification will prove

to be a safer bet than its peers, which do not have the same characteristics.

Having gone through the revenues part of the flow chart, let us now glance through the major

expenses that are incurred by an auto ancillary company.

6.7 Expenses:

The auto industry has evolved to a stage where auto companies have substantially increased the

number of components they outsource. Apart from design and development work and

manufacturing of some key components, almost all the other components are outsourced. In such

a scenario, auto ancillary players have been increasingly burdened with higher raw material

expenses, notably steel. Since auto ancillary companies have a weaker bargaining power,

majority of the input cost rises are absorbed internally (either through cost restructuring or

lowering margins). This increases the risk profile of the sector.

Here also, Tier I players have been less affected as opposed to Tier II and III players on account

of the formers’ higher bargaining power. Even for those manufacturers, where steel does not

form a major part of input, raw materials prices account for 50%-60% of the total sales (tyres, for

instance). So, investors have to monitor prices of steel, rubber and petrochemicals, which are key

inputs.

Apart from raw material prices, salaries and wages is the other important expense head for an

auto ancillary company. These typically tend to be on the higher side (10%-12% of sales) if the

operations of the company are more labor intensive, whereas for companies with a high degree

of automation, the same stands at 5%-6% of the total sales of the company.

For a company, where exports form a significant part of total revenues or where most of the

inputs are imported, exchange rate prevailing in the markets also tend to affect the operating

margins of an auto ancillary player. Apart from these, asset turnover ratio, return on assets

and working capital to sales are other factors that a investors should compare for investment

purposes.

Thus, having broadly looked at the parameters that determine the profitability of an auto

ancillary company, we now have a look at what kind of valuations should an auto ancillary

company command.

43 Page


6.8Valuations:

The fortunes of auto ancillary companies are linked to the fortunes of the auto industry and as a

result the bargaining power stands considerably reduced. Thus, these companies have little

leeway in improving their topline performance by raising prices. The onus of improving

profitability therefore falls on cost reduction measures and effective deployment of funds. Hence

we feel that P/E multiple is an important metric in evaluating the performance of a company

from this sector. Companies that cater to domestic market deserve a lower P/E multiple as

compared to a company that derives a significant share from export markets.

7. Creating a Portfolio and updating NAV

51 Page


We Created a Portfolio on the basis of above analysis and research and started updating the NAV (Net Asset Value) of the portfolio on a daily basis.

NAV: In the context of mutual funds, NAV per share is computed once a day based on the

closing market prices of the securities in the fund's portfolio. All mutual funds' buy and sell orders are processed at the NAV of the trade date. However, investors must wait until the following day to get the trade price.

Mutual funds pay out virtually all of their income and capital gains. As a result, changes in NAV are not the best gauge of mutual fund performance, which is best measured by annual total return.

8. Findings

Having knowledge of different aspects of wealth management is very important before

entering in the stock market.

Fundamental analysis is most important to select companies. Macro-economic indicators

have high impact on some sector but less on others. Detailed sector analysis can help

predict the future with respect to sales and profit margins of the firm.

Technical analysis of stocks is a promising methods, which helps in forecasting the

direction of prices through the study of past market data, primarily price and volume.

Every sector has some fundamental ratios that have high impact than others. Such ratios

can be found out for each sector and investment can be made based on them.

With extensive research on various companies of stock market, one can find some

companies with average return and then invest accordingly.

Tracking NAV of the portfolio let us know where our investment decision stands in

market.

Reading newspaper daily helps in gaining knowledge about the market and if possible

where we can make some changes to avoid much loss by using wealth management

services.

Having knowledge of different aspects of wealth management is very important before entering in the stock market.

Fundamental Analysis is most important to select companies. Macro-economic indicators have high impact on some sectors but less on others. Detailed sector analysis can help predict the future with respect to sales and profit margins of the firm.

Technical analysis of stocks is a promising method, which helps in forecasting the direction of prices through the study of past market data, primarily price and volume. Concluding, the historical performance of stocks and markets are indications of future performance.

Every sector has some fundamental ratios that have high impact than others. Such ratios can be found out for each sector and investment can be made based on them.

With extensive research on various companies of stock market, one can find some companies with above average return and then invest accordingly.
