􀂄 Proxy to India's infra story: L&T has an order book of >`1.3tn, lending good
revenue visibility. L&T's strong balance sheet, a sound execution engine, wide array
of capabilities, integrated operations tailored to suit India's infrastructure growth
story and multiple, recurring value-unlocking triggers over the medium term lead
us to place faith in this default India infrastructure story.
􀂄 Well-capitalised balance sheet funding the expansion: L&T had a well-capitalised
balance sheet at a debt-equity ratio of 0.3x as of FY2011, despite having a strong
portfolio of assets and having invested in future growth areas. We believe the key
factors for the same are 1) high margins and 2) better working capital management.
􀂄 Buy L&T with an SOTP TP of `1,903: L&T has outperformed the BSE Sensex by
~10.2% over the last six months on the back of 1) strong quarterly performances;
and 2) robust guidance for FY2012 for both revenue and order booking. Further,
we have discounted margin pressure in our numbers. Ascribing separate values to
its parent business on a P/E basis and investments in subsidiaries on P/E, P/BV and
mcap basis, our target price works out to `1,903, which provides 17.4% upside
from current levels. Hence, we recommend Buy on the stock.
