Today's Call
1. Those who are still holding the shares of Reliance Defense and  Engineering Ltd, can
continue to add on declines. The scrip is entering the F&O segment, which is expected to give it the required bounce.
Reliance Infrastructure estimates Indian defence business opportunities at Rs.15 trillion over a 15-year period and offset export opportunity at Rs.77,000 crore.

Ambani’s entry into the defence business started with its acquisition of Gujarat-based Pipavav Shipyard about two years ago The Pipavav Shipyard has now been renamed Reliance Defence and Engineering Ltd.
In February, Reliance Infrastructure formed a strategic partnership with Dassault Aviation to form a joint venture, Dassault Reliance Aerospace Ltd, to execute offset contracts worth up to Rs.30,000 crore, the firm said. India had signed an agreement with France to buy 36 Rafale fighter jets from Dassault Aviation.
Moreover, as long as it is above Rs.61.65, there should not be much problem for the bulls. The short term targets of Rs.71-72, are still intact.

2. If IVRCL Ltd (Rs.4.95) does not close above Rs.5 today, then exit the counter, as there could be some problem with the company which, perhaps the market knows.

3. Accumulate the shares of Gammon India Ltd (Rs.10.10) as the company is on the path to recovery, as is evident from the last quarter results.

4. Those who are holding the shares of Tata Motors Ltd (Rs.473.80) can continue to add on declines. Many brokerage houses are bullish on the scrip.

5. Rolta India Ltd is giving opportunities for medium to long term investors for big gains. Accumulate at Rs.58.20, for targets of Rs.97-103.

5. Making money from the market on consistent basis, has become very difficult since last 9-10 months, especially after demonetisation; even for experts. Therefore, if you are a new comer, always consult veterans in this game. Whether, you follow their suggestions or not is a different issue, but at least please do take time to hear the voices of experts in complex trades.

IVRCL Ltd: Some Thoughts
CMP: Rs.5.05
Photo: Indian Tollways
The Hyderabad based infrastructure player IVRCL Limited will get Rs.400 crore from the sale of three road projects (Salem Tollways Limited, Kumarapalayam Tollways and Chengapalli Tollways) -- Of this it will receive Rs.315 crore by 31 March and the balance in September 2017, according to some sources.

Though lenders are reluctant to give new loans, last year it was sanctioned a fresh non-fund credit of Rs.1,800 crore in bank guarantees and letter of credit, in addition to a cash credit limit of Rs.200 crore as part of the CDR deal.

The company has an order book of around Rs.18,000 crore.

Apart from monetising the assets, there are six more in line, it has decided to focus on realising the claims amounting to over Rs.6000 crore from various government projects. 

The company wants to utilise the new arbitration law that brings down the time limit for the settlement of a commercial dispute, for this purpose.

At a joint lenders forum meeting for IVRCL, banks had earlier decided to invoke strategic debt restructuring. Around Rs.7,500 crore worth of loans given to IVRCL has been converted into shares by bankers, including State Bank of India and IDBI Ltd, allowing them to own 51%.

SDR allows banks to convert debt into equity and make management changes if the company fails to achieve certain milestones.

Last year the company said: 
“Pursuant to provisions of Companies Act, 2013 and Sebi (Issue of Capital Disclosure Requirement) Regulations, 2009 and implementation of SDR, the company has made an allotment of 6,46,810 equity shares at a price of Rs.8.765 each, to Bank of Nova Scotia".

Those banks that hold a stake in the company are Andhra Bank ICICI Bank, Indian Overseas Bank, IDBI Bank, Canara Bank and Corporation Bank. Now this prove of Rs.8.765 somewhat forms a datum for future price discoveries.

Now that Banks have already taken control of IVRCL Ltd, the Hyderabad-based construction company and have converted loans into equity, it makes sense to find a buyer sooner rather than later.

The infrastructure fund of multi-asset manager IDFC Alternatives has been one of the most active buyers of operational road assets in India, ahead of peer investors including US-based I Squared Capital and Canada’s Brookfield Asset Management.


On the other side, Piramal Enterprises Ltd, controlled by billionaire Ajay Piramal, which said in 2014 that it was looking to buy a number of road assets, is yet to announce a deal.

The Indian infrastructure sector has an estimated capacity to absorb $1 trillion. India plans to invest almost Rs4 trillion in the next financial year in creating and upgrading infrastructure.

According to a report last year by investment bank Ambit Corporate Finance and the City of London, global pension funds and sovereign wealth funds may invest up to $50 billion in India’s infrastructure sector over the next five years.

Meanwhile, the A$127 billion (Rs6.4 trillion) Australian Government Future Fund is looking to invest in the Indian infrastructure space, including roads, telecommunications and clean energy.

Recently there were media reports that Infrastructure Leasing and Financial Services Ltd (IL&FS) has partnered with global private equity (PE) firm Lone Star to jointly invest in stressed infrastructure projects in India.

Lone Star Funds and IL&FS have collaborated to jointly invest $550 million, which could result in asset purchases of up to $2.5 billion, the companies said in a joint statement.

A interesting point to note is that on November 2008, the Maharashtra (state) PWD, then headed by former minister Chhagan Bhujbal, had proposed to widen the 20 km Sion-Panvel Highway (Mumbai -- Navi Mumbai connectivity) with a new toll naka at Kamothe (Navi Mumbai). In June 2009, a tender notice was issued and the IVRCL-Kakade Infrastructure Pvt Ltd (KIPL) joint venture—Sion-Panvel Tollways Ltd—bagged the contract by offering the lowest viability gap fund of Rs 390 crore. Now KIPL is owned by BJP MP Sanjay Kakade. So, at present IVRCL Ltd (Rs.5.05) has some Narendra Modi (BJP) connections -- both at the centre and in Andhra Pradesh, we have NDA rule.

In mid-February, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley presented his 2017 Union Budget to the Parliament where he outlined his plan for infrastructure and railways.

The funds allow state-owned Indian Railways to modernize its infrastructure and service operations, which includes laying 3,500 kilometers of new tracks in the coming year (2017-18) and feeding 7,000 stations with solar power in the medium term. Jaitley also announced a new Metro Rail Act to streamline existing laws, and allow greater private participation in construction and operation. It is to be remembered that IVRCL Ltd is also a player in the Railway sector.

India's infrastructure development is set to accelerate and meet global benchmarks even if the private sector is not in a hurry to grab the vast investment opportunities that are opening up, top cabinet ministers said at the Economic Times India Infra Summit 2017.

The government has set an ambitious target of laying roads up to 40 km per day in the country. Till February in FY16-17, about 6,500 km of roads construction has been done, seeing a growth from the previous financial year, when just 6,000 km of roads have been laid.

Therefore, we can look forward for the buy out of the stressed assets IVRCL Ltd soon. investors can therefore accumulate the scrip of IVRCL Ltd in dips, for Short term targets of Rs.8-9.

The contracts for these pre-NELP (New Exploration Licensing Policy) exploratory blocks will be extended for 10 years from the expiry of their contracts. The move, the government said, will help accelerate indigenous production of hydrocarbons from existing blocks and act as a progressive step towards achieving the target of 10 per cent reduction in import of crude oil by 2022.


5. Those who have entered the turnaround infrastructure major, IVRCL Ltd (Rs.5.20), can look for targets of around Rs.7-8, in the coming days.  IVRCL Ltd is now basically (majority stake) owned by a consortium of lenders (Banks), hence accumulated debt is no longer a big problem. However, what seems to be a little bothering is working capital requirements.
Moreover, since the conversion price is around Rs.8.765 (~Rs.9), hence the scrip is likely to move towards this new found datum.

Lenders converted part of the firm’s debt into equity at a price of Rs8.765 per share. After the conversion, the lenders collectively hold 51% or more of the total share capital of the company.

Large Scale Capital Infusion: Cure for PSU Banks (PSBs)....
Photo: UCO Bank
The banking sector, which is laden with bad loans, plays a critical role in carrying out the government's development agenda but unfortunately hereto precious little has being done to revive this space.

A recent study found that the gross “non-performing assets” of state banks rose 56% in 2016, and 135% in the last two years. They now account for 11% of all state bank loans.

These are hardly reassuring figures. Yet the Narendra Modi's government—which, after all, owns these banks and thus dominates the Indian financial sector— seens relatively unconcerned. In the most recent budget, the government set aside barely $1.5 billion to recapitalize the banks.

You must have read that off late there were some capital infusion in 10 banks by the government of India. The name of the banks and the amount of capital to be infused by the government are:

Allahabad Bank (Rs.418 cr), Andhra Bank (Rs.1,100 cr), Bank of India (Rs.1,500 cr), Bank of Maharashtra (Rs.300 cr), Central Bank of India (Rs.100 cr), Dena Bank (Rs.600 cr), IDBI Bank (Rs.1,900 cr), Indian Overseas Bank (Rs.1,100 cr), UCO Bank (Rs.1,150 cr), and United Bank of India (Rs.418 cr).

However, Large-scale capital infusion in individual banks, consolidation or culling or even creation of a bad bank is the need of the hour.

Or else as the negative effects of demonetisation slowly tapers down and investment demand picks up in a big way, corporate borrowers will be scrambling for credit, but the banking system will be  find hard put to support India’s growth; leading to borrowings through ECB routes or FCCBs or through PE capital or Equity.

Moreover, while India government’s demonetization exercise which forced citizens to return old high-value notes in November-December period, might have had many side effects, however it the helped banks to grow deposits. 

Also, as a percentage of total loan assets, roughly one-third of all loans of United Bank of India (33.07%) and IOB (32.63%) are stressed. For IDBI Bank, this ratio is 27.76% and Uco, 21.71%. Thus the position of UCO Bank (Rs.36) is the best among the four indebted banks.

Besides, most analysts say that the government will be able to stick to the target of a fiscal deficit of 3.5% of gross domestic product, or GDP, in the current fiscal year that ends in March and aim for at least 3.3% fiscal deficit for 2018. It is to.be noted that successive governments have been diligently lowering the fiscal deficit for several years since 2012 when the deficit touched 5.9% of GDP.








Many of the government-owned banks that have around 70% share of banking assets are laden with bad loans and need capital to stay afloat. 

But till date most part of these declarations remained in paper only. The government of the day therefore should do this task on a priority basis, before the things are too late and damage becomes irreversible. If this governmentu is as bold and courageous as it likes to claim, that should be its topmost agenda.

However, inspite  of all these negatives, the banks stocks are on a steady rise since the last few months -- may be market knows something which we do not know. Now that the BJP has improved its position further, we could see a spurt in the Bank Stocks in the near term, as banks are a proxy to any economy.

Most analysts say that the NDA government will be able to stick to the target of a fiscal deficit of 3.5% of gross domestic product, or GDP, in the current fiscal year that ends in March and aim for at least 3.3% fiscal deficit for 2018. India's successive governments have been diligently lowering the fiscal deficit for seven years since 2012 when the deficit touched 5.9% of GDP. While India government’s demonetization exercise which forced citizens to return old high-value notes in November-December period, might have had many side effects, it the helped banks to grow deposits. Meanwhile, my earlier recommended Dena Bank Ltd (38.70) is up 4.59% today.

2. Those who are holding Tata Motors Ltd (Rs.472), should exit at intra-day highs, and enter banking or IT sectors. The long term holders, can keep a SL of Rs.466.

3. Those who have entered Rolta India Ltd, should give at least 6-9 months to the scrip, to generate some decent returns. This scrip may not perform in the immediate short term.

4. Nifty is now trading at 9,123.60 down 36.45 points or 0.40%. But I feel, a strong government with around two third majority in Uttar Pradesh is positive for the stock market. I am expecting the Nifty to close in the Green today. Let us see....

Reliance Communications: The Future Telecom Godzilla
CMP: Rs.38.25
The stock of RCom has been on a steady upmove since the last few days, as Reliance Jio (RJio) is scheduled to start its Paid Service from next month. This has again brought the stocks of Telecom companies into Focus. The scrip of Idea Cellular (Rs.108) has almost doubled from its 52-week low price of Rs.65.80, due to Vodafone news. Following similar positive trails, the share of RCom is also expected to touch Rs.71-72 in the next 6-9 months time. I have ben saying since sometime that it should not go below Rs.30, and till date, this has not been violated (52-week low: Rs.30.60 in the NSE); which somewhat attests to my buy on declines stand.









RCom already has enough of the luctrative 800 MHz spectrum necessary for 4G transmission, and which it shares with RJio. Also, as RJio expands it will benefit RCom, as the former is using latter's network (infrastructure), at a price.

Now if we look at the chart of RCom, we can see the formation of a Dragonfly Doji like pattern on the uptrend (though, not exactly).  

It will pertinent to mention here that Thomas N. Bulkowski in his book, Encyclopedia of Candlestick Charts wrote:

"The dragonfly doji is an interesting name for a candle that is supposed to act as a bullish reversal. It is a reversal candle, but only half the time. Random, in other words. If you see a dragonfly doji in the bush, do not be frightened. The 10-day performance after the breakout ranks it 98th out of 103 candles, where 1 is best. In other words, ignore it. Its bite is usually not fatal. Usually.

The dragonfly doji is an interesting name for a candle that is supposed to act as a bullish reversal. It is a reversal candle, but only half the time. Random, in other words.

Therefore, I feel the traders should continue to accumulate RCom, for immediate targets of Rs.54 - 55 - 57 - 60, from where it fell -- the good days are to return for the shareholders of RCom.

The research firm feels that it is the fastest-growing aluminum and zinc company globally. “The balance sheet risk has subsided, which has positioned VEDL on par with global miners and better than local peers,” it said in a report. Additionally, it forecasts a 30 percent FCF CAGR for FY17-19.
Meanwhile, the company in February reported a 4.5-fold jump in third quarter consolidated profit at Rs 1,866 crore on year-on-year basis, boosted by operational performance and low base in year-ago period despite sharp rise in tax expenses.
Revenue during the quarter increased 29.6 percent to Rs 20,393 crore compared with Rs 15,731 crore in corresponding quarter of last fiscal, driven by metals business.
"Revenues in Q3 were driven by higher volumes at iron ore due to recommencement of operations, ramp-up of volumes at the aluminium and power businesses and higher volumes at Copper India and Zinc India. This was partially offset by lower volumes from oil & gas, and Zinc International due to closure of the Lisheen mine, in Q3 FY2016," the company said in its filing.
The company also outlined big plans to invest in Jharkhand last month. Keen to get a strong foothold in Jharkhand, Agarwal said that he had "big plans" for the state but initial foray will be with USD 1 billion investment that includes setting up a 1 million tonne steel plant.
Dubbing Jharkhand as "a diamond in the crown of the world", Vedanta Resources Group Chairman Anil Agarwal said the state is "full of potential" and Vedanta has big plans for it.
"There is a lot of potential...This (Jharkhand) is a real Australia in India with its huge natural resources. We have abig plan but we will start with the medium size or small size project...We intend to set up a one million tonne of steel plant," Agarwal told PTI in an interview.

2. Those who have entered in Inox Wind Ltd at around Rs.169.30-170, should book at least 80% of profits at Rs.185 and hold the rest with a SL of Rs.181. Reentering on dips is suggested in intra - day dips. However, SL at Rs.179 is a must, for fresh entries.

Buy Inox Wind; target of Rs 298: HDFC Securities. HDFC Securities' research report on Inox Wind

Inox Wind (IWL) reported yet another weak quarter as execution got impacted due to demonetisation. 200MW of WTGs were manufactured but could not be commissioned, which led to miss in estimates for the quarter. With improvement in execution, the mgmt expects 4QFY17E to be a disproportionately strong quarter.

Outlook
Our estimates factor in flattish volumes of 3.5GW/1GW for the industry/IWL. Still IWL would generate annual FCF of 5bn going ahead. Given a history of volatile quarterly performance we cut our target P/E multiple to 12x (earlier 15x) to arrive at Dec-18 TP of Rs 298/sh. Reiterate BUY.


Mint Money Through Daily and Short Term Trading
Dear investors, till the end of last year, I was mainly focused on short term delivery based trades of basically mid and large cap counters. This strategy did not work well in the last few months, as Narendra Modi's misguided missile "Demonetisation", sucked the blood out of the system. Therefore, I have changed the strategy a bit, as the demands of quick returns from clients poured in..

You must have seen that these days, I hardly recommend small caps, once my speciality; and have now zoomed more into daily trading of large and mid caps, where also money can be made, through meticulous planning. However, there is a RISK element in daily trading, which could be overcome to some extent through experience.

Therefore, if you can risk around Rs.50,000 to 1.25 lakhs (on which I will take a intra - day position of Rs.2 - 3 lakhs per trade), then I can trade on your behalf to generate cash for you through daily and very short term trades. I will not take any part of the profit in the first 6 - months of trade. After that I will take 30% of the profits.

If you are interested, then please shoot a mail at: sumanm2007s@gmail.com or suman2005s@rediffmail.com; as the seats are limited due to lack of time.

Todays Calls
1. Buy UCO Bank at Rs.37.45, T: Rs.39-41. In a significant development, lower provisions has
helped Uco Bank to cut losses by a third to Rs.437 crore for the December quarter, compared with Rs.1497 crore loss in the year ago period. Banks are a proxy to any economy, therefore after demonetisation fiasco, as the economy gathers steam, Banks are set to do well.

2. The share of Reliance Power has achieved my 1st target of Rs.47 (Rs.47.70, intra day high) , you can book some profits and hold the rest with a SL of Rs.46.40, for the next target of Rs.51.

3. As the RJio's Free service comes to a halt, we can look forward for higher targets for Reliance Communications Ltd (Rs.38.25). After demonetisation fiasco, the economy has started to.pick up, and the retail sector is slated to do exceptionally well.

4. Those who are holding my recommended SBI (Rs.272.30), from Rs.160-162, can continue to hold with aSL at Rs.246. However long term investors need not put a SL as the worst seems to be over for the banking sector. The stock of SBI is likely to cross Rs.300 soon.

5. Considering the recently published India's GDP data as fudged, even a 5% growth during Q3FY17 should be good; on those harsh situations. Now, that the banks are flush with funds, we could look forward for good GDP growth, provided the  Narendra Modi's government does not manufacture another demonetisation like self goals.
Bank results in the December quarter are significant as they have just come out of demonetisation and are just a quarter away from recognizing bad loans under RBI’s AQR.
