coal beneficiation facilities with an aggregate designed feedstock capacity of 39.40
million tons per annum. Company intend to develop an additional 20 coal beneficiation
facilities with an aggregate additional proposed feedstock capacity of 111.10 million
tons per annum. 90% of CIL's output is from open cast mines whose cost of production
is less.
CIL sells coal at approx 50% discount to global coal prices but still enjoys high margins
due to lowest cost of production among its peers.

ANALYST TAKE
Coal India is owned by the government of India which is planning to raise around 15,000 Crore
Rs. through this IPO of Coal India. It has 63 billion tonnes of coal which makes Coal India the
world’s largest reserves of coal.
Page 4
Majority of the market experts and analysts say that this IPO should be subscribed to, and it is
even being cited that due to this IPO there might be a fall in the market. The reason is that this is
much awaited IPO and investors will take out money by selling their existing shares in the
market to apply for this IPO. Hence this IPO should be definitely subscribed to.
STRENGTHS
1. The largest coal producer and one of the largest reserve holders of coal in the world
RISK CONCERNS:
1. High Employee Costs: CIL has huge employee cost of approx 36% of revenue in FY10
due to large no. of employees. CIL is trying to move its workers from unviable mines to
new projects. Even the Gratuity Liability is huge.
3. Naxalites problems: Company's major operational projects fall in the sates affected by
Naxalites and local mafias. This may hamper existing operations and also expansion
projects.

CONCLUSION
It’s not often that an IPO gets graded 5 out of 5, but it’s not very hard to see why Coal India got
graded that based on their near monopolistic position, and their huge size. Here are some points
from the ICRA grading report about the Coal India IPO.
• Coal India is the largest coal company in the world with access to vast reserves.
• Highly favorable demand supply situation in the domestic coal industry.
• Coal India’s near monopolistic position in this industry.
• Continuous labor productivity due to the use of technology, and high share of
production from open cast mines.
• Deregulated coal pricing regime gives them the power to price their coal along with
other factors like favorable demand – supply, and cost competitiveness.
The Coal India IPO has been priced attractively. This will ensure inflow of money into the
Indian market, especially from FIIs. The IPO will act as a catalyst to bring more FII investment
into the market.

1. PSB has registered an impressive Compounded Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 32.7%
in its Interest Income and 35.6% CAGR in the operating profit between FY06 and FY10.
During the same period, its Net worth has shown a CAGR of 28.7%.

there is marginal increase in Net NPA to 0.44%.
3. The bank has been able to maintain Capital Adequacy Ratio of more than 9% with a fair
margin over the period of last 3 & half years. It will be augmented even more post this
issue.
Page 11
STRENGTHS
RISK CONCERNS
1. Declining trend in CASA: The bank has traditionally maintained high CASA deposits
because of its large retail customer base spread across India particularly in northern
regions. But over the years it experienced southward trend in CASA level as the bank
shifted more to term deposits to meet an elevated credit demand. Consequently it slipped
to 25% as on Mar 10 from 52% of FY06. This pushed up the cost of funds for the bank,
ultimately suppressed the margins.
2. Margin woes continue: One of the major concerns for the bank is the southward trend
of margin that slipped to 2.6% in FY 10 from above 4% level of FY06. Gradual
improvement in the C/D ratio was offset by persistent fall in low cost deposits
consequently putting the pressure on margins over the years.

CONCLUSION
The share is being offered at very attractive valuations. Considering the fact that there is huge
retail interest, a substantial premium and plenty of liquidity in the market this issue would
receive huge subscription. Allotment is most likely to happen by a lottery system and there
could be disappointment on that front. Investors must subscribe to the issue looking at the
prospects of the bank and the banking sector.

ANALYST TAKE
With a limited product portfolio and heavy dependence on a single brand, the company`s
prospects are vulnerable to the success of its 4 products to be launched in the near future.
Moreover, the company is yet to identify the products or companies to be acquired, for which
Page 17
Rs 500 million has been earmarked from the issue proceeds. Compared to peers, the company
enjoys healthy net profit margin due to limited scale and depth of operations. Going forward, as
new product launches are undertaken, margins are likely to come under pressure.
STRENGTHS
1. Market leader in light hair oil segment: The trademark license pact granted exclusive
right to the company to use, manufacture, advertise, distribute and sell the products
associated with the hair oils and other beauty products which helps the company in
becoming India’s third largest producer of hair oils and the largest producer of light hair
oils, capturing an estimated 49.5% of the light hair oil market in calendar year 2009,
according to the Nielsen Retail Audit Report.
3. Leading Brands: Almond Drops is the company’s leading product brand and currently
comprises approximately 92% of its net sales. Almond Drops is premium light hair oil
containing almond oil and Vitamin E, which contribute to the product’s reputation for
leaving users with healthier hair. Most hair oils which are packaged in plastic PET
bottles, while Almond Drops is packaged in glass bottles, which preserves the product
for a longer period of time even in high temperatures generally experienced throughout
India. In addition, Brahmi Amla, the company’s key product in the traditional hair oil
segment, has developed a loyal customer base since it began production in 1953.
4. Strong financial position: Bajaj Crop is a debt free company and has reported a profit
of Rs. 56.50 crore for the period ended December 31, 2009. The company’s strong
Page 18
financial position and operational results will provide it with the necessary working
capital and access to banking and credit facilities, if required, to implement its growth
strategy. The company’s ability to raise additional capital through first time borrowing
should allow it to pursue inorganic growth opportunities and allow it to expand and
enhance its existing product offerings and improve its future financial performance.
RISK CONCERNS
1. Limited operating and financial history: The company was incorporated on April 25,
2006 and began operations in April 2008. Prior to that time, Bajaj Consumer Care
(BCCL) and other Bajaj Group companies sold the brands that company is currently
licensed to sell. The manner in which company operates its business and results of
operations may differ from that of BCCL and other Bajaj Group. Company’s limited
operating and financial history is not sufficient basis to evaluate its business.
2. The company depends heavily on ‘Almond Drops’: The company heavily depends
upon its brand “Almond Drops” hair oil, which contributed 92.4% and 93.0% of the total
sales and gross profit, respectively, for the nine month period ended March 31, 2010.
Contribution from Almond Drops represented substantially all of the company’s
operating profit for the year ended March 31, 2010. Any drop in the sales of Almond
Drops or any other factor that negatively affects the product of the brand will adversely
affect the company’s market share, business and financial performance.
Page 19
4. Commitment to buy minimum quantity for product from third party
manufacturers: At present, the company is outsourcing a significant portion of its
production from the third party manufacturers under an agreement, where it committed
to take a minimum quantity of cases per annum, at prices agreed between the parties,
from time to time. In case of lower demand, the company will have to purchase the
committed quantities which may adversely affect the financial performance of the
company.
5. Foray into different line of business: The company has recently entered into an MOU
to with Bajaj Infrastructure Development Company Limited, Bajaj Hindustan Limited
and Teracon Construction (India) Private Limited to form a consortium in the nature of a
SPV to participate in the tender for redevelopment of property at Nityanand Nagar
Vibhag Four Cooperative Housing Society Limited. As per the terms of the MOU, BCL
has undertaken to subscribe to at least 40% of the paid up capital of the SPV. The
company do not have any prior experience in this field and may lose the investment of
40% of the equity capital of the special purpose vehicle (SPV) created to undertake the
said project.

CONCLUSION
The IPO is priced cheaply as compared to its peers, very well discounting the above concerns.
The Company intends to diversify into other products and also inorganically, this seems to be
too futuristic as the product portfolio has been more or less the same since its inception in 1953.
Though the financials and the pricing of this issue provide some comfort, much depends on how
the Company is able to effectively diversify into new product lines and segments and is able to
bring down its heavy dependence on one product. However, one can subscribe for listing gains.

At the lower price band, GPPL is valued at 4.3x its P/BV and 4.9 times at the upper price band.
Mundra Port on the other hand is available at 100% premium as it's already profit making
company and has positive (16%) return on its networth.
Though GPPL is a loss making company, on the back of traction from rising global trade, rapid
industrialization in the state of Gujarat and strategic location of the Port, we believe, rise in
cargo handling and lower interest out go would prove to be a turnaround case for GPPL and
investor can Subscribe to the issue with Long term horizon.
Page 24
STRENGTHS AND RISK FACTORS
STRENGTHS
1. Strategic location: Port Pipavav is one of the principal gateways on the west coast of
India. It is strategically located near the entrance of the Gulf of Khambhat on the main
maritime trade routes, which helps to serve imports from and exports to the Middle East,
Asia, Africa and other international destinations. Further, favorable oceanographic
conditions enable day and night navigation of ships throughout the year.
2. Well-developed port infrastructure and good rail and road connectivity: Port
Pipavav has a well-developed port infrastructure. The 4,550 metre channel length at the
Port enables day and night marine operations throughout the year due to favorable
oceanographic conditions. It has four dry cargo berths. These berths are utilized for
handling containers, bulk, break bulk, general and project cargo. It has also developed
infrastructure for reefer services which include supply of electricity and monitoring of
reefer containers. Going further, its existing rail and road network from Port Pipavav to
inland regions of northern and northwest India, including Delhi and the available land
for future transportation initiatives provides them with a competitive advantage for
attracting larger volumes of cargo.
3. Benefit from its promoter, APM Terminals: The company is backed by a strong
promoter group – APM Terminals, is one of the largest container terminal operators in
the world. They receive several benefits from its relationship with APM Terminals such
as access to modern technology, operational know-how, best industry practices,
increased bargaining power and competitive rates for purchase of port equipment, and
access to experienced personnel resources from APM Terminals.
4. Owns the right to determine its tariffs: The company is not covered within the
regulatory purview of the Tariff Authority of Major Ports, and hence, is entitled to
determine the tariffs at the Port, subject to the provisions of the Indian Ports Act, 1908,
as amended. Their ability to determine tariff rates helps them to compete effectively and
gives them operational flexibility.
Page 25
RISK CONCERNS
1. Too much reliance on small number of customers and partners for its revenues:
The company derives significant portion of its revenue from a few major carrier
customers. Any loss of any of its major customers or any significant decreases in
spending by some or all of its top five customers on its services may reduce the demand
for its Port and the services they offer and may adversely affect their revenue,
profitability and results of operations. In addition, their income may be affected by
competition, increase in fuel prices, the cyclical nature of the shipping industry and
decreasing tariffs in the port and related services industry.
2. Profitability mainly dependent on various tax benefits and other incentives: Being
an infrastructure company, it benefits from certain tax incentives. These tax incentives
might not continue in the future or that such tax credits shall be available for the
durations of 10-15 years only as per amended clause. The non-availability of these tax
incentives could adversely affect results of operations and financial condition.
3. Risky nature of business: Although most of the operations of the company are in India,
they service customers from around the world, including Asia, Europe and North
America. As a result, they are exposed to risks typically associated with conducting
business internationally, many of which are beyond their control. They, like other port
operators and manufacturers in India, are subject to various central, state and local
environmental, health and safety laws and regulations concerning issues such as
accidents, damage caused by air emissions, wastewater discharges, solid and hazardous
waste handling and disposal.

CONCLUSION
Projections are projections because on the excel sheet one can prove almost anything in the
world. So, if an investor has a high risk prospect on that, definitely he may ride the tide because
some of the recent issues are seeing good subscription and good listing. The same positive
momentum probably may rub off onto this issue and may find decent listings, but for the safe
investors who want to play safe probably may prefer to give it a miss.
As far as comparison to Mundra Port is concerned, one has to be careful because Mundra Port
itself is highly valued. It is like why we are trying to compare it with another highly valued
issue and feeling good that this issue is underpriced. The valuation is the culprit. If you want to
ride the tide, listing gains, probably one can go ahead, but quality wise there is a concern.

TECHNICAL CHART
ANALYST TAKE
The issue seems reasonable priced when compared to the private sector peers. However when
compared to NHPC, another large PSU in similar space, the issue is not cheap from a P/BV
Page 31
basis, while being cheap from a P/E basis. Retail investors with a long-term perspective can
subscribe to the issue (preferably at the lower band) as retailers have an added incentive of 5%
discount to the finally determined price.
STRENGTHS
3. Stable revenue stream through long-term agreements: The company has entered into
ten power purchase agreements with state utilities in the Northern region of India, two of
which are in the process of being renewed, under which all of the power generated by
the NJHPS (except for 12% of annual generation which is allocated to the state of
Himachal Pradesh free-of charge and an additional 1% of annual generation from
projects located in the state of Himachal Pradesh which is allocated to a state-established
local development fund) is sold to state electricity boards.
Page 32
working capital requirements, while at the same time servicing and repaying their
existing debt on a timely and reliable basis, and maintaining a healthy level of cash on
its balance sheet.
RISK CONCERNS
3. Dependency on single project: All of the company’s revenues are generated from the
NJHPS located in the state of Himachal Pradesh on the Sutlej River. Consequently, any
interruption in the operations of the NJHPS would potentially have a greater negative
impact on the company.

as has improved over the periods. In line with the improvement in gearing levels interest costs
have also been declining.

ANALYST TAKE
The company is strengthening its base in India and is setting up local presence in the target
markets that are Low cost and would help bring down the companys dependence on Austria and
Switzerland for servicing. The EBIDTA margin on the consolidated basis has improved to
9.83% in FY2010 from 4.8% in FY2008. At the lower and upper ends of the price band of the
issue, the stock is offered at 27.15x and 27.8x FY2010 earnings respectively. It is recommended
to Subscribe to the IPO due to:
(1) Va tech is the only company which is fully focused on water and waste water
Page 44
(2) Strong brand,
1. Overall favourable demand outlook for projects in water & waste treatment business.
2. Company’s established position in the above segments, , both in the domestic and
international markets.
RISK CONCERNS
1. Increasing competitive pressures in the business and adverse price fluctuations in the
basic raw materials could impact margins
2. Execution risks that is typical in project business; ability to execute orders in a timely
manner, meeting guaranteed performance requirements and within budgeted costs would
be crucial

CONCLUSION
Water even though abundant on earth is scarce when it comes to its quality. Only 2.5% is
available in the form of fresh water. The uneven spread of water and the increasing demand for
fresh water due to the growing urbanization provide significant opportunity for players in the
waste water treatment industry especially Vatech Wabag Ltd. With significant industry
expertise, advance technology, strong execution track record and a growing order book, the
company is well balanced to tap the growing water and waste water treatment market.

TECHNICAL CHART
ANALYST TAKE
The issue has been graded by CRISIL Limited as CRISIL 'IPO Grade 4/5' indicating that the
fundamentals of the IPO are "Above Average" relative to the other listed equity securities in
India.
The report says the grading reflects the company's dominant position in the build-operate-
transfer (BOT) road space and its established track record - most of its projects have been
completed on time. The grading is supported by the strong management background with
domain expertise, proven execution capabilities in the engineering procurement construction
(EPC) segment and the company's integrated business model. The grading also takes into
Page 51
account intense competition in a highly fragmented road development market, which leads to
aggressive bidding and potentially low returns.
STRENGTHS
The company is a well-established player in toll-based BOT projects in India with a proven
ability to partner with other well-established players in the industry.
As of 31 May 2010, the company's order book totalled Rs1,615.36 crore, of which orders of
Rs1,408.92 crore were related to work for third parties and associated companies.
3. Most of the company's projects have been executed on time or prior to the scheduled
completion date.
RISK CONCERNS
1. There are as many as 152 outstanding cases against the company, directors, promoters
and promoter group companies.
3. Some of the subsidiaries and promoter group companies have incurred losses during the
past three financial years.
4. The company has substantial working capital requirements and if it is unable to obtain
working capital loans to help finance these requirements, it would a have significant
adverse effect on the business, results of operations and financial condition.
5. The company faces significant competition and if it fails to compete effectively it will
have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.
6. The company also faces the risk of uncertain tax benefits for BOT projects, long
gestation period and regional concentration of its projects.

CONCLUSION
CRISIL has assigned a CRISIL IPO Grade 4/5 to the proposed IPO of Ashoka Buildcon. The
grading reflects the company’s dominant position in the build-operate-transfer (BOT) road
space and its established track record, with most of its projects having witnessed timely
completion. The grading has also taken into consideration the strong management background
with domain expertise, robust industry prospects due to significant investment expected in roads
and power transmission and distribution (T&D) segments, proven execution capabilities in the
engineering procurement construction (EPC) segment, integrated business model and adequate
corporate governance practices. The grading also reflects the company’s strong order book of
Rs 17,850 million as well as healthy revenue growth potential from the BOT segment.

ANALYST TAKE
Rating agency CRISIL has assigned an 'IPO Grade 2' to the issue indicating 'Below Average
Fundamentals'. The report notes that CEBBCO is a relatively new entrant in this segment and
could face stiff competition from existing incumbents in the refurbishment and wagon
businesses. Post the commissioning of its wagon capacity, it would account for just around 4%
of the total wagon capacity as of 2008-09. Its ability to bag orders remains contingent on how
well the company is able to establish strong contacts within the Indian Railways. Organised
players in the fabrications business as well as existing wagon manufacturers could easily cater
to the Indian Railways' demand for both refurbishment and new wagons as the business is
neither very capital intensive nor requires a long gestation period and orders are tender driven.

STRENGTHS AND RISK FACTORS

TECHNICAL CHART
ANALYST TAKE
Based on the earnings for 2009 December annualised for the year of Rs 7.75 the share is being
offered at 9.68 to 10.97 times at the lower and higher band respectively. The earnings on a fully
Page 63
diluted basis is not the correct way to value this share because the capacity expansion already
under way and expected to complete by September and December 2010 will increase the
capacity by 40% this year and another 40% next year. With such massive expansion happening
there has to be dilution or borrowing to fund growth. The promoters of Parabolic chose dilution
as an option to fund growth and almost double capacity in less than two years.
STRENGTHS
1. Established R&D facility: Parabolic Drugs is a research driven company with its R&D
efforts focused on developing non-infringing processes and achieving process
improvements and production cost efficiencies. The company is having an established
R&D facility which comprises chemical and analytical research laboratories at
Sundhran, Derabassi, and a team of 85 scientists including 16 Ph.Ds, as at April 15,
2010. The company has also set up an additional R&D centre at Barwala in fiscal 2010.
2. Diversified and improving customer base: Including some of the leading generic
companies in the world, the company as at March 31, 2009, was catering to 487
customers worldwide compared to 244 in fiscal 2007. The company constantly strives to
increase customer base and reduce dependence on any particular customer. They supply
products domestically as well as to approximately 45 countries, including regulated
markets. Some of the countries to which it supplies its products include Turkey, Jordan,
Syria, Iran, Korea, Italy, the Netherlands and the US.
3. Wide product range in the antibiotics segment: The company manufactures a wide
range of products in the antibiotics segment. The company is continuously focusing on
developing new products within their existing segments, including niche products
developed with specific applications such as niche Penicillin APIs such as
Bacampicillin, Sultamycillin, and Pivampicillin at its Panchkula facility.
Page 64
4. Advanced facilities to serve regulated markets and manufacture multiple products:
The manufacturing facilities of the company are designed to manufacture a variety of
APIs and API intermediates using a combination of processes. Its facility at Sundhran,
Derabassi is WHO-GMP and ISO-14001 certified. Most of its facilities are in
compliance with rules and regulations of USFDA. Their flexible manufacturing
infrastructure enables them to expand product range and change product mix in response
to changes in customer demand and to serve customer requirements ranging from
laboratory scale research to commercial production.
RISK CONCERNS
Page 65
the prices of such ingredients were to rise substantially or if imports from China were to
be restricted in any manner or market concerns regarding the quality of such raw
materials, it will be difficult to find alternative suppliers for raw materials, on terms
acceptable to the company, and business, results of operations and financial condition
could be adversely affected.
4. Expansion plans subject to time and money constraints: The company may make
substantial investments in the future for establishing new manufacturing facilities and
upgrading its existing manufacturing facilities so that they comply with the standards set
by the USFDA and other regulatory authorities. Delays in the construction and
equipping or expansion of any of its facilities could result in loss or delayed receipt of
earnings, increase in financing and construction costs, and the company’s failure to meet
profit and earnings budgets would have an adverse effect on its financial condition and
results of operations.

CONCLUSION
Page 67
The company offers growth prospects and investors with a medium to long term time frame of
investment will be amply rewarded. In the short term Indian markets mirroring global cues
particularly European markets have been extra volatile and Parabolic would be no exception. I
believe this company should report a profit after tax of Rs 70-75 crs after the expansion is
completed translating into an EPS of Rs 12 to 12.75 for the year ended March 2012. The first
year of full capacity available would be 2012-2013. Subscribe for the medium and long term
only.

ICRA has assigned an 'IPO Grade 2' to CRIL's IPO. This means as per ICRA, the company has
'Below Average Fundamentals'. ICRA assigns IPO grading on a scale of 5 to 1, with Grade 5
indicating 'Strong Fundamentals' and Grade 1 indicating 'Poor Fundamentals'.
STRENGTHS
1. The company has an established discount brand in the domestic apparel market with a
diversified product portfolio for men, women and children. It has a wide network of
exclusive retail outlets across metros, Tier-I and Tier-II cities in India.
2. The proposed manufacturing facility will reduce dependence on third-party
manufacturers and improve profitability.
3. CRIL has a healthy financial profile with steady growth and improvement in operating
profitability in the past. It has experienced promoters with around two decades of
experience in the garment industry. There is also favourable demand outlook for
organised retailing in the country.
RISK CONCERNS
1. The company's aggressive expansion plans may put pressure on the operating
profitability as the company might adopt pricing strategy to gain market share in newer
regions.
2. Increase in fixed costs such as rentals will have an impact on operating profitability;
high working capital intensity coupled with rapid expansion in the past had resulted in
negative fund flow from operations. This is likely to continue over the medium term as
the company plans to scale up quickly by opening new stores and adding new product
lines. Successful expansion of the retail network would be dependent on the ability to
scale up and effectively manage the supply chain, especially given the high inventory
requirements.
3. The market is highly fragmented and competitive, dominated by the unorganised sector.
Page 72
4. Rising yarn and fabric prices could put pressure on the profitability of the company
given the fragmented nature of the industry and vulnerability of retail sales to economic

ANALYST TAKE
The Sea TV Network IPO has been graded as 'IPO Grade 1' by rating agency ICRA, indicating
concerns over poor fundamentals. This grading reflects the concerns over risks arising out of the
Page 77
small scale of operations, the company's significant expansion plans, risk of geographic
concentration with a presence only in Agra (Uttar Pradesh) and competition from other players
in the city, as well as from companies like Bharti Airtel, Reliance Big TV, Dish TV etc which
provide direct-to-home (DTH) cable services.
STRENGTHS
2. Steady income from set-top box rent and value-added services through the IPTV set-up.
3. Carriage fees from broadcasting channels, and rentals from its optical fibre network.
4. Advertising from its own channels (like Sea News) should contribute a steady share of
the income

Techpro’s Debt to Equity has gone up significantly in FY10 from 0.61 to 1.43 and this is mainly

CONCLUSION
Looking at the company’s past track record and impressive order book position, Tecpro appears
to be a satisfactory investment opportunity. However, it must be noted that Tecpro is raising
money to fund its working capital requirements and not for asset expansion. Furthermore, one of
the selling parties is Metmin which has an investment in the company at an average price of
Rs.51.25. This is the second attempt to go public for Tecpro that had earlier filed its draft red
herring prospectus three years ago to raise around Rs 1000 Million. This time around, the issue
size has been more than doubled with one of the financial investors looking to cash out partly
with substantial profits.
Unlike the last time, when it planned to use the funds to set up design and engineering center
besides plant to manufacture conveyor belts in addition to enhancing working capital,
expanding existing manufacturing units and equity investment in group firms, this time it
intends to use the money solely for funding working capital requirements. While the market
momentum may provide some listing gains, longer term investors can choose to play the
waiting game at this counter and pouch this stock at lesser valuations.

ANALYST TAKE
Intrasoft Technologies IPO Subscription Details as of March 24 looks good. The Intrasoft Tech
IPO has generated fairly good subscription interest from all classes of investors. However, it’s
still early days and the IPO as yet has not oversubscribed. But looking at the subscription details
of Intrasoft IPO, the IPO is likely to see a good amount of oversubscription. Hence it would be a
good idea to go ahead and apply in the Intrasoft Technologies IPO. The listing gains on selling
the alloted shares of Intrasoft Technologies Limited on the IPO listing date, is likely to be pretty
good.
STRENGTHS
Page 89
1. There is no competition or comparable company in India in this line or similar line of
activity. Internationally there are comparables in the form of Evite.com and AG
interactive. One can also look at American greetings and Hallmark. In the case of the
last two they are strictly not comparable as they are into different verticals as well.
2. One of the leading electronic greeting card website by number of Unique Visitors
5. Has certain advantages over traditional greeting card companies and subscription based
electronic greeting card companies.
RISK CONCERNS
Any technology company always runs the risk of getting overtaken by new technology. Here
such a risk does not remain because the habit of wishing, greeting and gifting cannot die or go
away. The challenge is in introducing new products and innovation like the 123greeting studio
and the e-invite add-ons which will help in establishing supremacy of the product. The 20000
strong library and additions to it will help in making this website a must see going forward.
Complacency alone can kill the product otherwise the size of library ensures a head start and

ANALYST TAKE
The investor response to the Shekhawati Poly-yarn IPO doesn’t seem to be very overwhelming
at 10.4 times but going by the “avoid” signal given by the analysts on this small company
engaged in texturised and twisted yarn manufacture it doesn’t seem too bad either.
STRENGTHS
2. Experienced Staff
Page 95
3. Existing Profit Making Company
RISK CONCERNS
The company has two group concerns which are in the same line of activity. There is a group
company Ruia Rayons Private Limited. The company is in the same line of activity as the
company going public and had sales of Rs 4833.79 lacs for the year ended March 2009 and Rs
5644.71 lacs for the year ended March 2010. The net profit after tax for the period ended March
2009 was Rs 32.97 lacs and Rs 49.58 lacs for the year ended March 2010.
1. The company is now entering the highly competitive knitting industry where it has no
experience and setting up 30 circular machines.
2. Secondly the business of manufacturing texturising and twisted yarn is all about high
volumes and the company is nowhere in terms of size.
3. Margins in this business are thin but with the expansion and objects of the issue being to
acquire a corporate office and repay the loan for the same; it appears that too much is
being spent on non-productive assets.

CONCLUSION
The company offers no opportunity to prospective investors and therefore chose not to even
have a road show for the investor community in the financial capital of the country Mumbai.
The reason for not having a road show is to avoid reports from Mumbai which looking at
fundamentals would not warrant a subscribe rating for investors. People are being lured into the
issue with listing gains which is a sure shot way to losing money and getting trapped. I would
advise investors give a complete skip to the issue and avoid the same and more important to not
get carried away with some other issues which have done well initially and then tanked.

ANALYST NOTE
The financial performance of the company appears satisfactory considering the past track record
of consolidation and then growth. The revenue stream of the company includes sales of
residential and commercial space (70 per cent), rentals (19 per cent), property management
services and hospitality services. The company also has an arrangement with banks to securitize
the revenue generated from the lease of its completed commercial, hospitality and retail
developments (Rent Securitization). The bank in turn pays the lump sum amount to the
company and the subsequent rentals is paid directly to the bank by the tenants. It is noteworthy
then that the amount of debt on its books includes the loan taken by the company through this
route.

STRENGTHS AND RISK FACTORS
STRENGTHS
11 Diversified project portfolio with strong track record and execution capability
compliments its strong brand
11 Notably the cash flow in the past has remained very inconsistent as it has posted
negative cash-flows from operations for most of the last 5 years (Q1 FY2011, FY2010,
FY 2007, FY 2006).
RISK CONCERNS
2. Interest rate sensitive and cyclical nature of real estate sector and highly competitive
space: Though at present economic conditions seems stable both domestically and
globally, any slowdown or unforeseen adverse event globally or domestically could
impact the sector adversely. Rising interest rates and raw material prices too would
impact the margins adversely.

CONCLUSION
On a NAV basis, Sobha Developers trades at a Price to NAV of less than 0.8 times whereas at
its top end price the Price to NAV of Prestige Estates stands at 1. Overall, though the company
caters to premium segment, the bottomline has thus far failed to reflect the margin increase.
Resultantly,the premium commanded by the company appears steep for now. Going forward
things can improve significantly, but much would depend on the execution capability and
completion and sale of projects, which for the near term seems to be factored into the IPO
price.
The markets too have shown an aversion to real estate sector stocks, barring a few exceptions.
Thus overall, while those with a high risk appetite can consider applying, others can bide their
time and await lower levels to consider pouching this stock.
Incorporated in 1995, Hathway Cable & Datacom Limited is the leading cable television
services provider in India, as well as one of the leading cable broadband services providers.
Company offer analog and digital cable television services across 125 cities and towns and
Page
high-speed cable broadband services across 20 cities. Hathway Cable is the leading operator in
several key markets of India including among others, cities such as Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore,
Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Indore, Bhopal, Baroda and Surat.
As per MPA Report, Hathway is the largest distributor of digital cable in India. As of December
31, 2008, their digital television subscriber base constituted approximately 42% of the total
digital cable television market in India . As of July 31, 2009, company had 1,319,646
subscribers for analog cable television services and 972,969 digital cable television subscribers.
Hathway Cable & Datacom hold a pan-India ISP license and were the first cable television
services provider to offer broadband internet services. They are currently India's largest cable
broadband services provider with 953,084 two-way broadband enabled homes passed, as on 31
July, 2009.

TECHNICAL CHART
ANALYST TAKE
The company has accumulated losses to the extent of Rs 4,274 million as on September 30,
2009. There is thus a high possibility that the profits made in the future will be used to write off
the same. While this will offset the future earnings, it will also reduce the tax burden as the
same (accumulated losses) will be deducted from the taxable profit.
STRENGTHS
1. Established presence & operational expertise: The company has been operational for
more than a decade and has registered strong growth especially in the last two to three
Page
years. This has largely been through the inorganic route by acquiring MSOs (multi-
system operators) and LCOs (local cable operators). Furthermore, it has been able to
withstand the challenging and competitive business till date thanks to its established
brand name and service offerings. Like its listed peer, Den Networks, the company will
focus on expansion and conversion of analog cable services subscribers into digital
connections. Thus, there is a huge ready market for the same. However, there is also a
high possibility that the analog subscribers could opt for DTH and other emerging new
technology services too.
Moreover digitization will help the company to reduce losses on account of under-
reporting by the local cable operators and unauthorized access by the non-subscribers.
However one would do well to note that the company will have to aggressively convert
its subscriber base into digital services users. This will not only help the company to
retain its clients but also enable to offer value added and other pay channels services
which is the key revenue driver in this business segment.
RISK CONCERNS
1. Excessive Dependence on Digital service platform and LCO’s for growth: The
company’s revenues seem highly dependent on the growth of its digital subscriber base.
The argument is further strengthened by the fact that the company has earmarked
Rs.1,564 million for the purchase of 9,20,000 set top box units and Smart cards. This
also enhances execution risk.
Page
lags behind in terms of revenues. The Average Revenues Per User (ARPU) stands at
Rs.56 per month, which is much lower than that of its closest competitor, DEN
Networks. Notably, of its total subscribers, only a million of them are on digital cable,
which is the key reason for these low ARPUs.
4. Higher Government Regulation and Capital Intensive nature of its business has an
adverse impact on Visiblity of its prospects as enhances expenses while limiting
operational flexibility.

CONCLUSION
At a Market Cap to Sales ratio of 5.6 times, Hathway Cable seems to have priced its IPO fully.
Comparable listed peers like Wire and Wireless (WWIL) trade at a Market Cap to Sales ratio of
less than 1.3, while Dish TV which offers DTH service trades at a ratio of around 5 times.
Hathway has a satisfactory operating history and pan-India presence with the ability to deliver
digital content and value-added services along with broadband internet. It is engaged in a highly
competitive segment with high technology obsolescence risk.
Notwithstanding the undoubted potential in the space and the satisfactory credentials of the
company, it might be prudent for investors to bide their time till the stock price stands trimmed
and the digital roll-out plan of the company gathers momentum.

CONCLUSION
Highly competitive and fragmented industry with a number of small players offering similar
products also does not augur well for the long term growth prospects of the company. Also the
number of legal proceeding against the company and its directors (especially for dishonour of
cheques) raises corporate governance concerns.
With no comparable peers, and negatives far outweighing the positives, the forward PE of

ANALYST TAKE
1. Company has commenced commercial productions only in July 2009 and so, has a
limited track record in terms of Sales and Profitability.
2. The total outstanding debt on the books stood at Rs 6574.47 million. An analysis of the
balance sheet indicates that the incremental debt was mostly used to fund the capital
expenditure (denoted by a significant increase in the purchase of fixed assets in FY 2009
and FY 2010.A Debt to Equity ratio of more than 4.5 times as on March 2010 indicates
high leverage and high gearing.
Page
3. However, the third manufacturing unit of 100 MW is being financed entirely through the
equity route and hence, its Debt to Equity is expected to come down significantly over
the next couple of years.
4. The company has made a loss at EBIDTA and PAT level since inception.
STRENGTHS
1. Growth Prospects of Global Solar Industry: As of December 2009 Global SPV Cells
demand stood at 7.3 Giga Watt (GW) up at a Compounded Annual Growth Rate
(CAGR) of 50% since 2005 when the production stood at 1.45 GW. It is expected that
Global SPV cells industry will increase at a CAGR of about 28% from 7.3 GW at the
end of 2009 to about 24.7 GW in 2014. Notwithstanding the intensity in the credit
market collapse by the fourth quarter of 2008, the PV industry chain raised between
$13.5bn and $14.5bn in 2009, a new record for a single year indicating a high investor
appetite for the industry.

4. Healthy order book of the Company: As of July 31, 2010 Company has an order book
worth Rs.10, 119 Mn from 11 customers from 7 countries of which Rs.1708 Mn has
been executed as of July 31, 2010.
RISK CONCERNS
2. Technology Obsolescence Risk: Looking at a high cost of generation per unit and
average efficiency of about 16-17% there is a lot of research and development going on
around the globe. Thus, any major technological breakthrough could make most of the
existing players like Indosolar laggards in terms of Technology. Also there are no long
term contracts to secure companies against this risk. As on date Indosolar has the well
proven technology of Crystalline silicon (CS) from Schmid.CS. This technology is being
used by 93% of manufactures around the globe as of now.
3. Industry is still at a mercy of various State and Central Governments around the
world: Countries across the world have doled out subsidies and incentives to promote
solar energy, be it the Kyoto Protocol, Feed in Tariff scheme in Europe or our own
JNNSM or SIPS offered by Indian government. If all these incentives are partially or
fully withdrawn then companies could face huge margin pressures. With existing
efficiencies and technologies, their profitability is highly dependent on these incentives.
4. Huge Land Requirement: Solar power needs a lot of land. Concentrated Solar Thermal
(CST) projects in the United States use 6 to 10 acres per MW of power. India has a big
Page
land bank which can be used for solar power generation but acquiring land in India has
its own set of problems. Moreover, acquiring land at market rates will make projects
uneconomical.

CONCLUSION
Indosolar is in a growing industry but the industry is still evolving in terms of technology and
profitability. The issue appears fairly priced when compared to it’s peer Websol Energy
Systems Limited(Websol) which trades at a EV per MW of Rs.200 Mn as against Indosolar
which has EV per MW of Rs.102 Mn based on March 2010 capacity.
Also in terms of EV/Sales on 2011E sales, Websole trades at 4x times as against Indosolar at
about 3.2x times. But Websole has a track record of about 15 years. It is also a profit making
company whereas Indosolar is in its first year of operation and is yet to make profits.
Considering all the variables as they stand right now, traders can participate in this issue from
the point of view of listing gains as Indosolar will be the biggest listed Indian company in the
Solar Photovoltaic space.

Longer term investors who are willing to bet on JNNSM and willing to take on the technology
risk (there has been no major change in technology over the past 5 years) can consider
subscribing to this issue.
