CMP: Rs 6,968
Target Price: Rs 8,131
Reco: Buy
We believe that the operating performance has bottomed out in 3QFY19, and expect a gradual recovery from 4QFY19 and a revival in the EBITDA margin to 14% level by 2HFY20. The current price largely factors in most of the headwinds, and any further correction will be a very attractive entry point to gain exposure to a strong franchisee facing secular growth opportunity. We value MSIL at 23x Mar’21E core EPS, based on a two-stage dividend discount model, which is in line with the five-year average P/E (nearly 17% premium to 10-year LPA). The stock trades at 23.9x/19.7x FY20E/21E EPS. Maintain Buy with a TP of INR 8,131.

For bulls to take control, Nifty has to stay above 11,000 level
The Nifty continues to range-trade, even though it had a mildly positive response to the Interim Budget. The index is still very close to its own 200-day moving average (DMA). The possible upside is 11,100-plus, but there is strong resistance at 10,900-11,000 zone.
Volumes continue to be low. Foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) were net buyers post-Budget, and domestic institutions have been the selective buyers in 2019. The breadth has been negative with third quarter (Q3) results not making the market enthusiastic. READ MORE
