Industry Overview
According to the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the banking sector in India is sound, adequately capitalised and
well-regulated. Indian financial and economic conditions are much better than in many other countries of the
world. Credit, market and liquidity risk studies show that Indian banks are generally resilient and have
withstood the global downturn well.
With a sense of optimism slowly creeping in, the banking industry expects that 2015 will bring better growth
prospects. This optimism stems from factors such as the Government working hard to revitalise the industrial
growth in the country and the RBI initiating a number of measures that would go a long way in helping the banks
to restructure. The recent announcements of RBI, it is felt, are a clear pointer to the future of the restructured
domestic banking industry.
Market Size
The Indian banking sector is fragmented, with 46 commercial banks jostling for business with dozens of foreign
banks as well as rural and co-operative lenders. State banks control 80 percent of the market, leaving relatively
small shares for private rivals.
At the end of February, 13.7 crore accounts had been opened under Pradhanmantri Jan Dhan Yojna (PMJDY) and
12.2 crore RuPay debit cards were issued. These new accounts have mobilised deposits of Rs 12,694 crore (US$
2.01 billion).
Standard & Poor’s estimates that credit growth in India’s banking sector would improve to 12-13 per cent in
FY16 from less than 10% in the second half of CY14.
Investments/developments
There have been many investments and developments in the Indian banking sector in the past few months.
• The United Economic Forum (UEF), an organisation that works to improve socio-economic status of the
minority community in India has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Indian Overseas Bank
(IOB) for financing entrepreneurs from backward communities to set up businesses in Tamil Nadu.
• The RBI has allowed third-party white label automated teller machines (ATM) to accept international cards,
including international prepaid cards, and said white label ATMs can now tie up with any commercial bank
for cash supply.
• In a major boost for the infrastructure sector, as well as for banks financing long gestation projects, the RBI
has extended its flexible refinancing and repayment option for long-term infrastructure projects to existing
ones where the total exposure of lenders is more than Rs 5000.00 mn (US$ 78.98 million).
• With the objective of increasing investment opportunities for Indian alternative investment funds (AIFs), the
RBI has allowed these funds to invest overseas.
• Syndicate Bank is planning to open 300-500 branches in the next financial year
• RBI governor and European Central Bank President has signed an MoU on cooperation in central banking.
“The memorandum of understanding provides a framework for regular exchange of information, policy
dialogue and technical cooperation between the two institutions.
• RBL Bank has announced that it would be the anchor investor in Trifecta Capital’s Venture Debt Fund, the
first alternative investment fund (AIF) of its kind in India with a commitment of Rs 500.00 mn (US$ 7.89
million). This move provides RBL Bank the opportunity to support the emerging venture debt market in
India.
• The RBI has allowed banks to become insurance brokers, permitting them to sell policies of different
insurance firms subject to certain conditions.
• Bandhan Financial Services Pvt. Ltd has raised Rs 16000.00 mn (US$ 252.69 million) from two international
institutional investors to help convert its microfinance business into a full service bank. Bandhan was one of
the two entities to get a banking licence in April 2014 along with infrastructure finance company IDFC Ltd.
• Yes Bank Ltd has signed an MoU with the US government’s development finance institution Overseas Private
Investment Corp (OPIC) to explore US$ 220 million of financing to lend to micro, small and medium
enterprises (MSMEs) in India.
• Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) has said that it has applied for a Payments Bank licence, where the
company will be the promoter and State Bank of India will be its joint venture partner with an equity
investment of up to 30 per cent.
• The RBI has allowed bonds issued by multilateral financial institutions like World Bank Group, the Asian
Development Bank and the African Development Bank in India as eligible securities for interbank borrowing.
The move will further develop the corporate bonds market, RBI said in a notification.
• The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has cleared the merger of ING Vysya Bank with Kotak Mahindra
Bank, which would create the country's fourth largest private sector lender. The proposed Rs 150000.00 mn
(US$ 2.36 billion) deal is not likely to have any appreciable adverse effect on competition in India.
• Tata Consultancy Services Ltd (TCS), India’s largest software services exporter, has announced that it has
expanded its presence in Singapore with the opening of a new 1,000-seat TCS Singapore banking and
financial services (BFS) centre. The new centre replaces a 500-seat centre opened in 2011 and will offer a
broader range of services to global banks in the Asia-Pacific region, with a major focus on digital offerings.
Government Initiatives
There have been a lot of developments in the Indian banking sector.
� The Government has announced a capital infusion of Rs 69900.00 mn (US$ 1.1 billion) in nine state run
banks, including State Bank of India (SBI) and Punjab National Bank (PNB), but based on new efficiency
parameters such as return on assets and return on equity. In a statement, the finance ministry said, “This
year, the Government of India has adopted new criteria in which the banks which are more efficient would
only be rewarded with extra capital for their equity so that they can further strengthen their position."
� The Union cabinet has approved the establishment of the US$ 100 billion New Development Bank (NDB)
envisaged by the five-member BRICS group as well as the BRICS “contingent reserve arrangement” (CRA).
� The RBI has decided to allow nominated banks to import gold, including coins, on a consignment basis,
extending its clarification issued in November 2014, which had eased certain categories of gold imports.
� To help Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME), RBI has permitted setting up of an exchange-based
trading platform to facilitate financing of bills raised by such small entities to corporate and other buyers,
including government departments and PSUs.
Road Ahead
The Indian economy is now on the threshold of a major transformation, with expectations of policy initiatives
being implemented. Positive business sentiments, improved consumer confidence and more controlled inflation
should help boost the economic growth. Higher spending on infrastructure, speedy implementation of projects
and continuation of reforms will provide further impetus to growth. All this translates into a strong growth for
the banking sector too, as rapidly growing business turn to banks for their credit needs, thus helping them grow.
Also, with the advancements in technology, mobile and internet banking services have come to the fore. Banks in
India are focusing more and more to provide better services to their clients and have also started upgrading their
technology infrastructure, which can help improve customer experience as well as give banks a competitive edge.
Many banks, including HDFC, ICICI and AXIS are exploring the option to launch contact-less credit and debit
cards in the market soon. The cards, which use near field communication (NFC) mechanism, will allow customers
to transact without having to insert or swipe.
Outlook and Conclusion
� At the current market price of Rs. 822.00 the stock P/E ratio is at 15.19 x FY16E and 13.60 x FY17E
respectively.
� Earning per share (EPS) of the company for the earnings for FY16E and FY17E is seen at Rs. 54.11 and
Rs.60.44 respectively.
� Net Income and PAT of the company is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12% & 16% over 2014 to 2017E
respectively.
� Price to Book Value of the stock is expected to be at 2.49 x and 2.12 x for FY16E and FY17E respectively.
� We recommend ‘BUY’ in this particular scrip with a target price of Rs. 920.00 for Medium to Long term
investment.
