HUDCO IPO ANALYSIS: SOURCE SPTULSIAN

HUDCO (Housing and urban development corporation)
.


Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO) is entering the primary market on Monday 8 May 2017, in the price band of Rs. 56 to Rs. 60 per share, with Rs. 2 per share discount for retail investors. Issue closes on Thursday, 11 May and it likely to list on the bourses on 19 May.
Wholly owned by the Indian Govt, HUDCO is a Miniratna (Category-I Public Sector Enterprise)
Both housing and urban infrastructure sectors in which HUDCO has presence are facing some serious tailwinds, in the form of Govt. impetus via ‘Smart Cities’ and ‘Housing for All by 2022’ projects which provide visible headroom for future growth.
To summarise, Govt. backed lender extending loans to state agencies, where risk of default is near-zero, with adequate capital backing, good quality book and very strong sector tailwinds, is being offered at a price-to-book value multiple of only 1.2 times, which is indeed a no brainer. Retail discount of Rs. 2 per share, seen after a long times, only acts as an additional sweetener!

Very attractive pricing supported by domestic housing boom make this issue a subscribe both from listing gains and long term perspective. Share also hold promise to touch the 3-digit figure over the next 12 months.

India: Growth Slow Down (A note on GDP)

Indian economy slowed down significantly in the first quarter of FY2017, which is worst in last three years exactly the same years Modi government is in center. According to recently released data GDP expanded a weak 5.7% annually in Q1 FY 2017, which was sharply below the 6.1% increase in Q4 FY 2016. All those analyst who were forecasting a healthy growth rate now are vanished and our finance minister is accepting that this is a matter of concern. The probable reason of this slow down can be demonetization or implementation of GST. Export growth slowed notably from 10.3% in Q4 FY 2016 to 1.2% in FY 2017, the worst result since Q4 FY 2015. A strong rupee and confusion over the looming implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) likely weighed on the result.

What Macron’s Win In France Means For Emerging Markets And India

What Macron’s Win In France Means For Emerging Markets And India As result of France’s presidential election has already been announced and Emmanuel Macron won the election defeating Le Pen. Emmanuel Macron is the youngest president in the history of France. As market was expecting the same and the positive rally was already in cashed that’s why market has not reacted unexpectedly after the results. If Le Pen would had won then definitely a sell off rally was expected. Macron has sounded pro-business, consistently talking about labour and tax reforms as well as infrastructure spending. The equity markets love these terms.

This puts the focus back on domestic factors and the local triggers...
