Best Diwali Muhurat Picks 2015

ITC Limited

ITC is the largest cigarette manufacturer and among the largest paperboard manufacturing companies in India. The company also has the second largest hotel chain in the country and is aggressively acquiring a strong position in the FMCG space.

ITC plans to stimulate the distribution strategy for the FMCG business by increasing direct reach to one lakh villages in India. This initiative depicts ITC’s aggressive approach towards growing its FMCG business (25% of FY15 revenues vis-à-vis 18% in FY08). Further, the company is aggressively diversifying in newer categories as reflected in the recent acquisition of two brands Savlon & Shower to Shower and foray into the dairy industry with Aashirvaad ghee

Bajaj Finance

Bajaj Finance (BFL), is one of the leading asset finance NBFCs. The USP of BFL is its stronghold in the consumer durable (CD) & lifestyle product financing business. These segments are under penetrated & growing in size.

Owing to its strong underwriting processes, focus on affluent & mass affluent clients, NPA is expected to remain acceptable. Further, such healthy asset quality and higher yields in the CF space enable BFL to earn one of the highest margins among its peers of ~10%. We assume this will largely be sustained, going ahead.

Blue Dart Express  

BlueDart continues to be a market leader in the air express market with ~52% market share. However, it has 15% market share in ground express. BDE offers an entire range of services from a document to an entire charter load of shipment.

Also, BDE has set up a 1,00,000 sq ft e-fulfilment centre, which operates on activity based revenue model.

Kajaria Ceramics

Kajaria Ceramics is the largest manufacturer of ceramic, vitrified tiles in India. Being the market leader, it has significantly increased its capacity from 30.6 msm in FY11 to 59.1 msm in FY15. This was driven mainly by the acquisition of a stake in Cosa, Soriso, Vennar and Jaxx and expansion/conversion of existing facilities.

We remain positive on Kajaria given the sturdy growth in the industry, favourable structural shift, its better margin and return ratio profile coupled with a strong balance sheet. We expect the topline and bottomline to grow at a CAGR of 18.9% and 27.8%, respectively, during FY15-17E.
