margin expansion of 800bps to 19%, resulting in earning CAGR of 52% to Rs 589mn in FY14.

• Success in Phytopharma discovery research could surprise positively: Currently Arvind Remedies, in collaboration with Government and Universities, is developing few Phytopharmaceutical drugs (best known as, “pharmaceutical agent of plant origin”)and completed Phase II trials for four of those in India so far. The management expects to commercialize couple of Phytopharmaceutical drugs in next 12‐18 months time in India and each product has revenue potential of about Rs 2bn in India itself (primarily due to the superior safety profile of these products compared to chemical based drugs).

38% jump in consolidated revenues to Rs 81bn (i.e. 1.35bn) in FY14, guides for revenues worth $2bn in FY15 and $3bn in FY17. In fact, the continued growth momentum in US generics and successful integration of acquired operation in EU to really drive growth.

The company expects sales about $1bn from US in FY17 against sales of $564mn in FY14.
• Injectables being the key driver: Aurobindo has developed a healthy basket of over 60 (total 78 filling) pending injectable ANDAs and expects to file 2 penem NADAs, 8 steroid ANDAs and 15 oncology ANDAs over next 18‐24 month period. Hence, the company expects strong growth in injectable sales led by ramp up in injectable approval in near‐medium term and by complex injectables over long term. Thus, the management guides for an injectable revenue of $200mn by 2016 from the expected $37mn in FY14.
• Expects value progress in EU operation: Aurobindo Pharma has already reduced its EBITDA loss guidance by 50% to Euro 10mn (against earlier guided Euro 20mn) in FY15 for its acquired EU operation in Q1FY15. Since the company is currently rationalizing the low margin products and optimizing its distribution strength, it target consolidated EU sales/margin of $520mn/‐3% in FY15, $560mn/+3% in FY16.

23 September 2014 / INDIA EQUITY RESEARCH / India Investor Conference 19 Sept 2013: Key Takeaways
Balaji Telefilms We hosted Mr. Sanjay Dwivedi, Chief Financial Officer of Balaji Telefilms (BT). Following are key takeaways from the investor interactions: • TV Content production business stabilizing – BT’s TV content business comprises
production of commissioned programs for broadcasters such as Colors, Sony, Star TV, Zee TV etc. Currently the company produces fiction content for Hindi GEC’s, youth GEC’s such as Channel V, MTV etc. The company plans to expand its offerings to regional GECs – Marathi & Bengali and other genres (non‐fiction/youth etc). The company did 208 hours of programming during Q1FY15 and two of its shows for Zee TV, ‘Kumkum Bhagya’ & ‘Jodha Akbar’ are the two most watched shows on Indian television (highest rated as per TAM data). Average hourly realizations are around Rs 2mn/hour.
• Movie business – FY14: a year of learning’s, focus shifts to mid‐budget releases: o BT produced & released six movies in FY14 with budgets from Rs 50‐1000mn. In
FY14, the company incurred a loss of Rs 262mn as it wrote‐off its movie inventory from the balance sheet & incurred losses on its high budget release ‘Once Upon a Time in Mumbai Dobaraa’.
o The company’s key learning’s from FY14’s unprofitable movie foray include 1) focus on medium budget & unique script relying on Ms. Ekta Kapoor’s talent while limiting bets to Rs 400‐500mn/movie, 2) it will now change its approach to work on good scripts and will look to launch new talent (as opposed to relying on stardom which comes a steep price), 3) the company is also looking to own distribution, starting with Delhi & Mumbai so as to save on the distributors margin of 10‐15% of box office proceeds.
o 25 movie projects are now in discussion which the company intends to execute in 3 years with its current cash & liquid investments (~Rs 2bn). The board has approval of deployment of Rs 1250mn and a contingent funding of Rs 250mn.
o The company believes that theatrical rights will be the key driver of revenue as satellite rights are seeing a lull on account of lower competition among the Hindi GEC players. During the hyper‐competitive era in film procurement among Hindi GECs, satellite rights used to contribute to 45‐50% of movie revenue; but now the same is only 30‐35%.
• Outlook: o The company produces shows in six of ten prime time Hindi GEC’s and can scale
up significantly in the TV content business. Management has indicated that studio production capacity isn’t a constraint and programming hours can increase to ~300‐350 hours/quarter; from 208 in Q1FY15.
o The company mentioned that FY15 is likely to be a TV‐centric year while FY16 will see movies as well as TV content investments bear fruit.
o BT has Rs 2bn cash on its balance sheet which will be used for the movie business. Management believes that the business is in a position to generate stable cash flows and has indicated that a dividend policy could evolve by next year.

23 September 2014 / INDIA EQUITY RESEARCH / India Investor Conference 19 Sept 2013: Key Takeaways
• NIMs to remain under pressure owing to margin cap on NHB refinance. NIMs have come‐off from 4.64% in FY12 to 4.21% in FY14.
• Merger with group entity not likely as Gruh business model of affordable housing is based on customized pricing and product where as the offering by group entities are largely customized product and standard pricing.
• Deferred tax liability is negative for housing sector as it would compress the return ratios.
• Asset quality continues to remain strong and do not see any disappointment.
ICRISAT • Cotton acreage has increased by over 10% in the current season and India has
already surpassed China in cotton production and this trend is expected to sustain. The cumulative economic benefit of a move to biotech crops particularly cotton would be key to government’s further policy making with regard to biotech crops
• The rapid adoption of biotech crops world over, in the initial 18 years of commercialization is in itself a testimony to BT crops as safe for human health. It also confirms the economic and health benefits to the farmers and society. As cotton/maize is widely adopted in 15/17countries respectively, it is logical to expect that India will also adopt maize technology at some point in the near future
• As Monsanto has been a pioneer in innovation technologies for increasing crop productivity for farmers globally, it is expected to have huge edge over competition should India approve GM in food crops. Monsanto GM corn is currently in the final stage of GEAC approval and on approval it shall take atleast 2‐3 years for Monsanto to commercially launch it. JK Seeds and DCM Shriram have good germplasm base and research thrust is better than the industry. Kaveri has good distribution strength and successful brands such as Jadoo, Jackpot and ATM
• The Supreme Court is holding back research and field trials of new GM crops, limiting growth prospects at the moment. India is the second largest producer of eggplant and BT eggplant seed (when approved) should help increase the size of the vegetable seed segment (currently estimated at around US$ 190 mn). Brinjal is very pest‐prone crop and normally requires upto 30 sprays of insecticides. It is estimated that insecticide consumption in brinjal can fall by 70% and improve yields 2‐fold if BT brinjal is used. As Bangladesh is commercially growing BT brinjal, so there is a high chance that it may slip into India and much likely that India can open up this segment too
