INITIATING COVERAGE
Sector view: Attractive
Tenacities. We initiate coverage on Brookfield REIT with an ADD rating and Fair
Value of Rs290. Brookfield has a portfolio of 14 mn sq. ft (10.4 mn sq. ft completed) CMP (`): 273
spread across key metros that will yield an NOI of Rs8.5 bn by FY2024E (9% CAGR). Fair Value (`): 290
Near-term earnings growth comes largely from contractual escalations as well as
build-out of new assets, the former makes Brookfield’s earnings less vulnerable to a BSE-30: 61,766

At our Fair Value, Brookfield REIT offers a dividend yield of 7.4% on FY2023E with NOI
growth of 9% CAGR between FY2021 and FY2024E. We note that the minimal spread of
the dividend yield over the risk-free rate (traditional metric for global REITs), should be seen
in the context of high medium-term growth profile of yields for Brookfield in comparison to
global counterparts, through a combination of contractual escalations, re-leasing premium,
and commissioning of currently under-construction projects.
We note that in addition to the initial portfolio of 14 mn sq. ft with a value of Rs117 bn,
Brookfield REIT also has a call option to acquire two more properties aggregating 8.3 mn sq.
ft (5.7 mn sq. ft completed). The call option properties have a potential NOI of Rs6.4 bn in
FY2023E. The call option can be exercised based on an independent valuation, and which
vests within six months of the listing of the units of the REIT and can be exercised within a
period of 12 months after that.
Exhibit 5: Brookfield REIT’s initial portfolio is valued at Rs117 bn with an projected NOI of Rs8.5 bn in FY2024E
Valuation summary of Brookfield REIT (mn sq. ft, Rs mn)
We further highlight that the lower return ratios (RoE and RoCE) should be seen in the
context that the assets of Brookfield REIT in our reported financials have been marked-to-
market to current Fair Value estimates.
We note that most private transactions in the commercial real estate space have happened
in a range of 8.4-8.6% capitalization rate (See Exhibit 6), with a downward trend in recent
years reflecting the strength in the growth profile of commercial real estate in India, as well
as the declining interest rate trajectory. We further highlight that a platform of REIT with
assured dividend pay-outs, option value of RoFo assets, and lower execution risk should
trade at a premium to private transactions.
Exhibit 6: Capitalization rates have been declining over the past few years, and have ranged from 8.4-8.6%
Transactions in commercial real estate over the past few years
We highlight that our fair value estimate is highly sensitive to assumptions for capitalization
rate as well as WACC. We have currently assumed a capitalization rate of 8% and WACC of
11%--a 100 bps increase in cap. rate assumptions lowers value by Rs27/share whereas a
100 bps increase in WACC lowers fair value by Rs22/share.

According to our economy team, India will start turning the corner on interest rates by early
next year as the RBI will likely start with hiking the reverse repo rate. As growth recovers and
the economy moves ahead beyond pandemic impact the first hike in repo rate will likely
come in by 2HFY23 with a cumulative 100-125 bps over the next 18-24 months to 5-5.25%.
Long term G-Sec yields (10-year) which have already moved up close to pre-pandemic levels
will move closer to 7% as policy rates adjust higher. G-Sec yields as well as corporate bond
yields will be tempered by FPI flows, especially if India is included in the global bond indices,
which will act as a deterrent for any sharp uptick in yields as the economy and rates
normalize. As highlighted sensitivity of valuations to interest rates is very high for Brookfield
REIT.
From a currency perspective, INR over the next 12-18 months would be shaped by (1) a
widening current account deficit as the economy reverts to pre-pandemic level activities
across sectors, and (2) capital flows on the back of likely global bond index inclusion and
equity market flows. Even as the global monetary policy cycle turns with liquidity and rates
normalization, a heavy depreciation bias of the INR is unlikely given the large FX reserves of
over Rs640 bn that the RBI has built through the pandemic. As the dollar strengthens, the
INR will see some gradual depreciation moving into a range of 73-77, averaging around 76
in FY2023E against 74.6 in FY2022E. Depreciation of the INR will impact yields for global
investors looking at dollar-denominated returns.

Yields. Brookfield has a dividend yield of 7.6% compared to 6.4% for Embassy and 6.3%
for Mindspace. On a cap. rate basis, Brookfield is trading at 7%, Embassy at 7.2% and
Mindspace at 7.6% on FY2023E NOI.
Exhibit 10: Brookfield has the highest dividend yield among all three REITs on FY2023E financials
Comparable valuations of Embassy, Mindspace and Brookfield, March fiscal year-ends, 2021-23E (Rs mn)
Growth. Brookfield has the more predictable but moderated growth path, which is
primarily dependent on contractual escalations, and commissioning of 0.1 mn sq. ft of
new space in the near term. In contrast, Mindspace has the most aggressive growth path
with 3.4 mn sq. ft (19%) of assets likely to be commissioned over the next three years
yielding a 14% CAGR in revenues. Embassy has 5.7 mn sq. ft of asset space under
construction (21%) supplemented by a hotel portfolio of 1,137 keys.
Exhibit 12: Brookfield has a relatively low-risk portfolio with lower vacancy
Comparison of operational, under-construction, and re-leasing profile of REIT portfolios (mn sq. ft)
Size. Brookfield REIT (14 mn sq. ft) has the smallest portfolio size among the listed REITs
with Embassy having the largest portfolio (42.4 mn sq. ft) post the RoFo acquisition of
Embassy Tech Village. Mindspace REIT has a total portfolio of 31.2 mn sq. ft with 1.8 mn
sq. ft under construction. We note that inclusion of the option portfolio of 8.3 mn sq. ft
could bulk up the size of Brookfield REIT, in addition to a more ready portfolio of RoFo
assets. Exhibit 13 compares the portfolio size across commercial portfolios in India.

The average Indian household has twice as many people (4.6) than their counterparts in
developed markets (2.5X), which impairs the ability to work from home (See Exhibit 18). The
average home in India at 504 sq. ft further accentuates the problems of larger families in
India (See Exhibit 19). The average Indian home would not support a dedicated workspace,
impairing overall productivity. Space constraints aside, India ranks poorly on internet
connectivity (Rank#65) with average download speed of 38 mbps compared to the world
average of 78 mbps (See Exhibit 20).

On the other hand, Indians have longer commute hours with four among the top-10 most
congested cities in the world. Bangalore has been ranked the most congested city in the
world with congestion of 71% reflecting the extra travel time required due to traffic (See
Exhibit 21). The time savings on commute will likely be a favorable factor for employees
wanting to adopt work from home.

Companies will likely take into consideration concerns on data security and integrity as well
as softer aspects of team building as well as training and mentorship of a young work force
that may need increased collaboration, while implementing work from home strategies.
India’s rental cost at US$1/sq. ft per month is among the lowest in the world and may not
make a big dent on cost profiles of their largely global tenants (see Exhibit 22). Depreciation
of the local currency against the dollar neutralizes contractual escalations on rupee-rents.

The call option properties encompass 8.3 mn sq. ft, comprising (1) 5.7 mn sq. ft of
completed area (96% occupied), (2) 1.7 mn sq. ft of under-construction area expected to be
completed by September 2021, and (3) 0.8 mn sq. ft of future development potential. The
initial portfolio combined with the call option properties forms the pro forma portfolio
aggregating to 22.3 mn sq. ft.
In addition, Brookfield REIT may also benefit from rights of first offer on the ROFO properties
– the Brookfield group’s 100% owned commercial real estate assets in India’s financial
capital, Mumbai, comprising 6.7 mn sq. ft of office space. The pro forma portfolio and
ROFO properties combined create an overall portfolio of 28.9 mn sq. ft of high quality real
estate in premier locations.

As of June 31, 2021, the committed occupancy and in-place rent of the initial portfolio was
85% and Rs65/sq. ft, respectively. Brookfield’s office parks have outperformed their
respective micro-markets and cities in terms of rental growth and occupancy, and provide
critical infrastructure for major tenants in key gateway markets and established locations,
creating high barriers to entry. As a result, leasing rent and committed occupancy of the
initial portfolio has surpassed the averages in their respective micro-markets, delivering
sustained outperformance.

Call option properties can help Brookfield raise its portfolio to 22.3 mn sq. ft
As highlighted previously, the call option properties have an aggregate area of 8.3 mn sq. ft
between two properties—Gurugram and Noida. The key terms of the call options are as
follows:
Exercise period. At any time on and from the date that is six months after the date of
listing of the units on the stock exchanges till one year or such later date as may be
provided in the call option agreements or as may be mutually agreed between the parties.
Exercise price. Exercise price will be calculated based on the average of the valuations
determined by independent valuers at the time for exercise of the options, subject to a
pre-determined floor valuation set out in the agreement.
Discharge of consideration. Upon execution of the sale and transfer of the shares of the
call option SPVs, the shareholders of the call option SPVs shall receive an amount equal to
the gross acquisition value, as adjusted for the agreed adjustments (as defined in the call
option agreements), by payment in cash or in any other manner as agreed between the
parties in accordance with the terms of the call option agreements.
ROFO assets could add another 6.7 mn sq. ft to the project portfolio
Brookfield REIT could also benefit from rights-of-first-offer on the ROFO properties – the
Brookfield group’s 100% owned commercial real estate assets in India’s financial capital,
Mumbai, comprise 6.7 mn sq. ft of office space. The pro forma portfolio and ROFO
properties combined create an overall portfolio of 29 mn sq. ft of high quality real estate in
premier locations.
Exhibit 26: 6.7 mn sq. ft of additional office stock could be offered to extant asset portfolio of 14 mn sq. ft

In accordance with the REIT Regulations, the Brookfield REIT is required to ensure
compliance with, inter alia, the following investment conditions:
invest not less than 80% of the value of its assets in completed and rent and/or income
generating properties;
not more than 20% of the value of its assets shall be invested in certain permitted forms
of investments (whether directly or through a company or LLP) which include, among
other things, under-construction properties, completed but not rent generating properties,
mortgage backed securities, listed or unlisted debt of companies or body corporates in
the real estate sector, unlisted equity shares of companies which derive not less than 75%
of their operating income from real estate activity according to the audited accounts of
the previous financial year; and
not less than 51% of the consolidated revenues of the Brookfield REIT, and their asset
SPVs, other than gains arising from disposal of properties, must at all times arise from
rental, leasing and letting real estate assets or any other income incidental to the leasing
of such assets.
Further, the manager is required to monitor these thresholds on a half-yearly basis and at
the time of the acquisition of an asset. In the event these conditions are breached on
account of market movements of the price of the underlying assets or securities or
change in tenants or expiry of lease or sale of properties, the manager is required to
inform the trustee and ensure that these conditions are satisfied within six months of any
such breach (or within one year if approved by their unit holders).
In addition to the investment ratios set out above, the REIT regulations and the trust deed
also impose restrictions on certain investments including, among other things, investing in
units of other REITs, launching schemes under the Brookfield REIT, investments in vacant
land, agricultural land or mortgages other than mortgage backed securities, and assets
located outside India. The Brookfield REIT is also restricted from co-investing with any
person(s) in any transaction in the event the investment by such other person(s) is on
terms more favorable than those offered to the Brookfield REIT.
The properties (including under-construction properties which are part of existing income
generating properties) acquired by the Brookfield REIT are also required to be held for a
period of at least three years from the date of completion or purchase, as applicable,
pursuant to the REIT regulations.
The commercial real estate market may be affected by several factors outside the manager’s
control, such as prevailing global and local economic conditions, cyclical downturns as well
as downturns in specific sectors where tenants occupying the assets in the portfolio are
concentrated, such as the technology, consulting and financial services sectors.
Inability to (1) renew lease contracts at prevailing or improved rental rates, or (2) drop in
occupancy due to non-renewal of contracts may further impact earnings from rental income.
Further, rising interest rates, increases in property taxes, changes in development regulations,
zoning laws and other applicable regulations, political instability, acts of terrorism, natural or
man-made disasters, pandemics such as Covid-19, reduction in the availability of financing,
increase in operating costs and disruptions in amenities and public infrastructure may lead to
a decline in demand, which may adversely affect the business.
Additionally, in accordance with the terms of the lease deed with Noida, SPPL Noida is
required to develop Candor Techspace N1 for technology services only.
Accordingly, the portfolio will experience concentration from tenants in the technology
sector. Such restrictions may limit the ability of the manager to select tenants from sectors
outside of technology on terms that may be more favorable. A concentration of tenants in
the technology sector may also make the portfolio more susceptible to fluctuations in value
resulting from adverse economic or business conditions affecting the technology industry.

Further the portfolio has not faced significant disruptions in its operations due to Covid-19
so far. However, continuation of the pandemic for a longer period could pose risks to the
business of the tenants. Collections for the period since April 2020 have been well above 95%
and do not show any signs of weakness so far.

During the lockdown, certain tenants at the office parks limited the number of operating
staff and hours, while others announced ‘work-from-home’ measures. Certain essential

The revenue improvement will translate into NOI growing from Rs6.5 bn in FY2020 to Rs8.5
bn by FY2024E. We highlight that the negative contribution from Covid-19 has a limited
bearing on NOI, as the same is largely reimbursement of common area expenses. We note
that in the past three years, Brookfield has been able to grow the NOI to Rs6.5 bn in FY2021
from Rs5.9 bn in FY2018. The asset manager has leased 4.4 mn sq. ft of area between
FY2015 and FY2020, having achieved 90% tenant retention during the same period.
Brookfield has commissioned 3.1 mn sq. ft of new area over the past five years, while
maintaining a committed occupancy above 96%.
Rental income accounted for 71% of the revenues in FY2021 at Rs6.1 bn and is estimated
to grow at 7% CAGR over the next three years to Rs7 bn, while maintaining a similar
proportion (67%) of overall revenues. Payments for maintenance services are the second
largest component of revenue (29% in FY2021) at Rs2.5 bn. We note the Covid-19 related
impact led to lower maintenance services in FY2021 and will likely normalize by FY2023E.

In the following section we detail the growth in revenues from various factors, including the
underlying assets performance on each of the parameters over the past three years.
We note that as of March 31, 2021, the average in-place rent across the initial portfolio was
Rs65/sq. ft compared to an estimated market rent of Rs85/sq. ft according to the industry
report, resulting in a substantial mark-to-market potential of 31%.

expenses for Brookfield REIT
Breakup of expenses for Brookfield REIT, March fiscal year-ends, 2018-20 (Rs mn)
Brookfield REIT has projected capex of Rs11.6 bn over the next five years
Brookfield REIT incurred a capex of Rs7.5 bn over the past three years, during which time
the company completed 5.1 mn sq. ft of assets. Brookfield has a projected capex of Rs11.6
bn to be incurred over the next five years for upgrade at existing projects and completion of
3.6 mn sq. ft of new assets. We highlight that CWIP as of March 2021 stood at Rs792 mn,
and incremental capex will likely be funded entirely through debt.
Exhibit 41: Brookfield has spent Rs7.5 bn over the past three years
Capital expenditure profile for existing assets, March fiscal year-ends, 2018-20 (Rs mn)
Their ongoing capital expenditure of Rs2.7 bn as of June 2021 is primarily towards upgrade
and construction activities for Candor Kolkata (for Candor Techspace G2 and Candor
Techspace K1) and SPPL Noida (for Candor Techspace N1), as illustrated in the table below.
Exhibit 42: Brookfield intends to spend Rs16 bn for construction and upgradation of its assets
Construction plan and required capital expenditure over the next five fiscal years (Rs mn)
We note that Brookfield REIT has continued to invest in projects over the past three years,
with aggregate capex of Rs7.5 bn, and CWIP of Rs792 mn as of March 2021.
Exhibit 43: Brookfield REIT’s CFO is expected to grow steadily to Rs7.1 bn by March 2023
Cash flow statement for Brookfield REIT, March fiscal year-ends, 2018 -25E (Rs mn)
Brookfield REIT had a net debt of Rs21 bn as of March 2021. We note that the net debt
reduction was aided by (1) equity infusion of Rs38 bn, and (2) convertible bonds of Rs10 bn
in favor of Brookfield REIT by the sponsor group. We note that the increase in debt in
FY2019 was on account of transfer of ownership in Candor Gurugram Techspace in favor of
Candor Kolkata K1 for an equity consideration of Rs30 bn, which was paid partly in cash
(Rs20 bn) and partly through issuance of bonds (Rs10 bn). The transfer also resulted in
creation of amalgamation reserve of Rs30 bn (excess consideration over book value of assets)
resulting in the negative net-worth on the balance sheet of Rs22.2 bn as of March 2020.

India is the fifth largest and one of the fastest growing major economies in the world. India’s
GDP was US$2.9 tn in 2019 (3.4% share in global GDP). As per IMF, India’s economy is
projected to contract by 4.5% in 2020, as economic activities were restricted due to
stringent lockdown on account of the Covid-19 pandemic, and to recover to 6% in CY2021.

Growing working class. At 494 mn people, India has a formidable and talented labor
base, which is expected to further increase by approximately 90 mn by 2030, this
structural driver will further increase office absorption, creating compelling opportunities
across the commercial real estate market in India.
Increasing urbanization. At 461 mn, India had one of the highest urban populations in
the world in 2018 (approximately 1.4 times the total population of the US), which is
expected to further grow to 543 mn by the year 2025.

The Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated the structural shift to technology that was already
underway prior to the crisis in relation to the usage and deployment of technology,
especially cloud, data analytics, e-commerce and digital transformation. The global spending
on software and IT services is expected to grow at a robust rate during FY2020-25 and the
technology industry in India is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13% to US$350 bn by
FY2025 from an estimated US$191 bn in FY2020 due to the large STEM talent pool,
competitive cost advantage and favorable demographics in the country.

Top-7 cities in India (Chennai, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, NCR and Kolkata)
have seen a total net absorption of approximately 163.4 mn sq. ft. during CY2008 –
1QCY20. Grade-A office stock in these cities has grown at a CAGR of 11% during the same
period and was at ~496 mn sq. ft as of March 2020. Further, the individual CAGR of the top
-7 cities between CY2008 and 1QCY20 have been in the range of 8% to 15%.
Brookfield REIT’s key markets—Mumbai, Gurugram, Noida and Kolkata have exhibited
strong market dynamics with robust absorption and limited high-quality supply resulting in
lower vacancy levels and higher rental growth during the past five years. During CY2015 -
1QCY20, 41.8 mn sq. ft of non-strata supply was delivered in the Brookfield REIT markets,
while the net absorption was 41 mn sq. ft. During the same period, vacancy decreased by
approximately 120 bps on the back of robust demand and improved infrastructure.
Exhibit 52: Vacancy is forecasted to rise to 12.7% with anticipated supply of 109 mn sq. ft

DMART’s current market capitalization of Rs3.2 tn (US$42 bn) will imply a market capitalization Current market cap.
of Rs70 tn using a WACC of 11% and market capitalization of Rs90 tn using a WACC of 12% implies Rs70-90 tn
by FY2051. India’s GDP per capita will reach China’s current GDP per capita by then. The top- market cap. by
10 Chinese retailing (largely e-commerce) companies have a combined market capitalization of FY2051

(1) strong growth in India’s GDP for the next several years, (2) large retailing market opportunity implies Rs4 tn of net
in terms of revenues and profits and (3) flawless execution on part of DMART. profits by FY2051
Assumption #1: India will reach China’s current GDP per capita in about 30 years Current market cap.
This is feasible if India’s GDP was to grow at 7% and its GDP per capita was to grow at 6% per
implies 23% share
annum. China’s GDP per capita is currently US$11,000 and India’s US$2,000. India’s GDP per of India’s formal
capita will be about 5.5X if it was to compound at 6% for 29 years. We note that India’s GDP urban grocery
has grown at an average rate of 6.7% over FY2011-20 (see Exhibit 2). We are hopeful about market in FY2051
acceleration in India’s GDP growth on the back of economic reforms and a multi-year
investment cycle, which could result in a virtuous cycle of investment and consumption.
Assumption #2: Retailing market will present a large and profitable opportunity
A simple analysis (see Exhibit 3) shows that DMART would have to reach sales of around Rs70
tn, EBIT of Rs5.3 tn and net profits of Rs4 tn in FY2050 to justify today’s market capitalization.
We use a 20X P/E multiple for DMART in FY2051, which seems reasonable in the context of the
‘mature’ state of India’s economy and retailing market by then. Our grocery market forecasts
for FY2051 (see Exhibit 4) suggest that DMART would have to achieve 8% market share of
India’s total grocery market, 12% of India’s urban grocery market and 23% of India’s formal
urban grocery market. We assume 45% of India’s population and 30% of consumption will be
in rural markets in FY2050, which will largely be outside the purview of formal retailing. The Sanjeev Prasad
share of rural population in China’s total population is about 35% currently.
Assumption #3: Flawless and superior execution versus several other competitors Anindya Bhowmik
The current market capitalization also implies rapid expansion of DMART’s digital and physical
infrastructure that will enable it to meet the implied revenue and profit numbers (if not higher)
Sunita Baldawa
for FY2050. We are not sure how to convert the implied FY2050E revenues into digital and
physical infrastructure since the mix of offline and online retailing is a big variable.

Demand outlook. 2QFY22 witnessed weak volumes qoq on the back of stringent
regional restrictions and severe monsoons pan-India. Volumes have shown a marginal
improvement since October as monsoons recede. The management refrained from giving
any guidance but expects demand to come back sharply post the monsoons and expects
volumes to grow by 6-8% yoy in 2HFY22E. The management expects to make up for the
lost volumes from a strong pickup in demand primarily led by pickup in commercial real
estate and higher government infrastructure spends on railways, road and irrigation
projects.
Price guidance. The company indicated that they have taken a price hike of Rs10-15/bag
mom in October 2021, thereby returning to pre-monsoon levels. The management
indicated that the current round of price hikes have sustained in most markets. The
company plans to pass on the impact of rising fuel costs in the form of higher cement
prices in the coming months.
Cost guidance. UTCEM increased its dependence on pet coke in 2QFY22 to 19% of the
fuel mix (17% in 1QFY22) given the continuous increase in thermal coal prices. The
management expects a cost headwind of Rs200/ton in 3QFY22 from higher fuel prices.
Freight costs are also expected to increase driven by increased diesel prices. As per the
management, there could be another Rs500/ton increase in fuel cost in the coming
quarters at spot coal prices; however, they see the current surge as transient. The
management expects fixed costs to remain in the range of Rs50-55 bn in FY2022 and the
company shall calibrate discretionary spends with the ongoing demand volatility.
Imported coal forms 80-85% of the overall coal mix.
Capex guidance. The management has guided for capex spends of Rs50/30 bn for
FY2022/23E primarily towards the completion of the recently announced cement capex
projects (in North, East and Central India) and 180 MW of WHRS capacity. Capex spent in
1HFY22 stood at Rs21 bn (Rs5.2 bn in 1HFY21).
Net debt increased by Rs7 bn (+6%) qoq. Net debt increased by 6% qoq but declined
47% yoy to Rs63 bn as of September 2021. Net debt increased despite strong
operational cash-flow due to seasonal increase in value of working capital and higher
capex spends during the quarter. Net debt/EBITDA remained stable at 0.5X as of 2QFY22
from 1.3X in 2QFY21.
RMC business update. RMC revenues increased 57% yoy to Rs6.1 bn. The management
continues to increase its dealer network to 148 (+43 RMC plants yoy). The management
remains confident on the growth prospects of the RMC business. The management
shared that the RMC business enjoys RoCEs >25% and margins at 4-5% higher than grey
cement margins.
RoE guidance. The management guided for RoEs of 18%+ by FY2025E from 15% in
FY2021.
Incentives. Receipt of incentives at its Dhar project inflated the other operating income
during the quarter and the management guided to see it as a one-off gain.
Trade sales increase. Trade sales remained stable qoq at 69% in 2QFY22. Premium
cement sales increased 14% yoy in 2QFY22.
Share of green power to increase. The company aims to meet 34% of its energy
consumption from green sources by FY2024. The current WHRS capacity of 137 MW is
expected to augment by an additional 60-80 MW each in FY2022/23/24E reaching 300
MW by FY2024E-end. We estimate ~Rs6 bn or Rs60/ton annual cost reduction from 180
MW WHRS capacity from FY2024E onwards. Share of green power stood at 13.7% as of
2QFY22.
Bicharpur coal block. UTCEM expects to begin production from this block in 3QFY22E.
The block has extractable reserves of 29.12 mn tons.

Strong demand environment to continue; qoq growth in 2HFY22 will be better than 1HFY22
Demand environment is exceptionally strong and powered by (1) discretionary spending on
effecting transformation roadmaps, (2) emergence of new areas of spending such as ESG and
cyber security where the opportunity potential is huge, creating a long runway for growth and
(3) global talent shortage, which is creating a demand for automation and staffing requirement
from IT vendors. The strong demand environment will continue for at least the next three years
as per the CEO. Growth is constrained by supply. Lack of adequate supply led to LTI leaving
some growth on the table. 2HFY22 will be better than 1HFY22 aided by seasonal strength for
LTI and strong demand as the company ramps up on people availability on demand.

Raise FV to Rs6,000; stock trades at full valuations; maintain REDUCE
We take cognizance of the strong revenue growth and outlook and increase FY2022-24
revenue estimates by 4-8%. EBIT margin estimates are largely unchanged. Our FY2022-24E EPS Sathishkumar S
increases by 3-7%. LTI’s strengths in core modernization, robust client base, smart S&M, strong
account mining and holistic participation in cloud and digital transformation journey of clients
will benefit from the demand uptick for the industry on a sustained basis. We increase our
target multiple to 34X September 2023E EPS (28X earlier) leading to FV increasing to Rs6,000
(from Rs4,500 earlier). Stock trades at full valuations. Maintain REDUCE.

High attrition will continue for 3-4 quarters and will subside as enough freshers are inducted
into the system. Attrition is highest in the 3-6 years band. IT industry did not hire enough
freshers in the previous 3-4 years due to demand issues leading to a backlog which is
currently being filled by aggressive hiring by all companies. Apart from fresher hiring and
lateral replacements LTI will (1) up skill and cross skill its existing workforce, (2) hire and train
employees with1-2 years of experience in new technologies and (3) tap non-tech workforce
to generate supply.
Return to office. Leadership team is back in office. Future operating model will be
hybrid with focus on seamless project governance, productivity and better employee
engagement. The model will be rolled out by the end of the year.
Data product business. Demand is healthy. The business significantly differentiates LTI in
data-to-decisions conversations with F-50 clients and is visible in strong growth in
analytics and data service line. LTI will continue to invest in data products business.
Other highlights. New logo addition was strong; LTI will be in the leaders’ quadrant in
terms of growth in FY2022; 14-15% net profit margin guidance for FY2022; demand is
strong in Europe across verticals; dividend of Rs15/ share; size does not matter as
capabilities and expertise provide the edge to win in the market.; offshore mix can
continue to increase; LTI is better than peers in navigating changes with speed.

Calm after the perfect storm. We expect oil prices to remain elevated in the near
term underpinned by (1) sustained rebound in demand driven by recovery in economic
activity and rising mobility trends, (2) replacement of alternate fuels amid shortages and
(3) decline in inventory levels amid calibrated increase in OPEC+ and the US supplies.
However, we do see a possibility of moderation in oil prices from 1QCY22 onwards as
incremental growth in demand slows down and supply situation starts improving led by
rising production from non-OPEC+ countries and unwinding of curtailment by OPEC+.
Robust demand rebound led by improving economy/mobility and replacement of alternate fuels
Global oil demand has rebounded strongly in the recent months driven by (1) opening up of
economies post accelerated vaccination programs in several developed and emerging countries,
(2) diminishing impact on mobility from recurring Covid waves; global gasoline demand is only
2% below pre-Covid levels and (3) incremental off-take from replacement of alternate fuels
such as gas, LNG and coal, prices of which have spiked up sharply amid supply shortages across
regions; IEA forecasts additional demand of 0.5 mn b/d for oil products from substitution of
alternate fuels from September to 1QCY22. Overall oil demand is expected to rise by 1.1 mn
b/d qoq to 98.9 mn b/d in 4QCY21 taking CY2021 demand to 96.3 mn b/d, which is expected
to increase by 3.3 mn b/d yoy to an average of 99.6 mn b/d in CY2022, similar to CY2019.
Decline in inventory levels amid calibrated OPEC+ supplies and restraints/disruptions in the US
Overall inventory levels in OECD countries declined below the five-year range in August and
may continue to reduce further in the coming months amid (1) calibrated increase in supplies
from OPEC+, who have been fairly compliant with the production targets despite demand
exceeding supplies, (2) restrained increase in production by the US shale players, as they remain
focused on plans of deleveraging and dividend payments by maintaining discipline on their
capital projects and (3) hurricane-led disruptions in supplies. OPEC as well as non-OPEC nations
have been more than fully compliant in the recent months as select nations compensated for
the earlier under-compliance and OPEC+ have maintained targeted monthly increase of 0.4 mn
b/d for now. In the US, overall rig deployment remains ~35% below pre-Covid levels and
continues to rise at a gradual pace relative to previous periods of elevated crude prices.
Easing supply-demand situation from 1QCY22, if OPEC+ continues to unwind production cuts
We expect global crude oil supply-demand balance to ease out during 1QCY22 led by seasonal
moderation in demand, likely improvement in shortage situation for alternate fuels and targeted
unwinding of production cuts by OPEC+. We note that expected rise in production from the US,
Canada and Brazil along with sustained unwinding of production cuts by OPEC+ as per current
agreement until September 2022 may drive incremental global oil supply to exceed incremental
demand through CY2022—global oil supply can potentially increase by 7 mn b/d to 102.4 mn
b/d exceeding IEA’s global oil demand forecast of 99.6 mn b/d (+3.3 mn b/d), resulting in a
plausible reversal in inventory levels. Accordingly, we now assume Dated Brent crude price to
sustain around US$80/bbl for the remainder of FY2022 averaging US$75/bbl for the full year Tarun Lakhotia
and then reducing to US$70/bbl in FY2023 versus our earlier assumption of US$60-65/bbl.
