INDIAN ECONOMY IN A
SWEET TINA SPOT
“It’s the TINA factor
sweetheart”, I quipped when my 12 year old was emphatic over her social science
& biology grades. I explained that there was no other alternative for her
than to study. “Really! You are funny Ma”. She has no idea that these days even
stock market surges are being attributed to this renowned acronym, TINA (There Is No Alternative). Well Indian
Stock markets are soaring these days and people i.e investors, hedge fund managers,
brokerage houses, analysts are not finding any reason for it. How long can they
keep giving UP election results as a reason for the REASONS why our NIFTY might
touch 9300 in few months? So for most of them when the markets go up its ‘TINA’
and when the market goes down its TRUMP. And mind you both TINA & TRUMP are
mutually exclusive.
Stock markets were once considered as barometer of economic
prosperity & financial health of a country. But this theory has long been forgotten
in the era of liquidity & uncertainty. As a result investors are more
driven by sentiments & information flow within the market than by its
fundamentals. With respect to India, there is no uncertainty left, so no
reasoning left for upside risk for the economy. Analysts keep on harping on
policy continuity on reforms and predicting 2019 general elections and even
beyond that as if they were discussing some telecom company’s extension offer.
Have the macro fundamentals just gone up after UP assembly elections or have we
started using prism glasses. But the question remains, why the Indices are
moving up without any backing from corporate earnings. I think most of us have
forgotten what we learnt in our graduation days. PEST.
PEST is nothing but Political, Economic, Social &
Technological external factors that influence any company or industry. These factors
are analyzed by any sane serious investor before putting his hard earned money in
stocks or companies. And India has all these factors in the right place at the
right time. So when the dollar seems to be confused about its own divergent economic
& fiscal policies, Indian Rupee is gaining strength over the convergence of
its socio-economic-political policies. Now for pragmatists who need facts, IIP for
January was 2.7%, PMI above 50, controlled inflation at 3.65% within RBI limit,
forex reserves have gone up to $367 billion, exports grew 17.50% in February
which is a sixth consecutive rise this year and last but not the least GDP at
7.1% is the fastest growing in the world. Now coming back to corporate earnings, growth
is definitely not anemic but in single digits which is expected to rise in
double digits by financial year 2018 and investors both domestic & foreign
are betting on this growth as evident from FPI flows of Rs.22268 crore this
month, highest since February 2013. Government is moving with GST
implementation by July this year, NPA resolution policy next month and other land,
labor and agricultural reforms. So foreign analysts are rightly calling us of
being in a SWEET TINA SPOT. But I really love this word TINA, which I am
planning to give it to my newborn niece. Yes, you guessed it right, I didn’t
find any other name!!

DEMONETIZATION
CONUNDRUM: NO SURPRISES MITROON
Political pundits & financial analysts are a baffled lot
these days. The number 324 was the last straw. Demonetization did what Jan Dhan
Yojana couldn’t. Nobody cares what the GDP is and what rate India is going to grow
in the next two years. Let that job be done by our esteemed international
rating agencies and that is the only job left for them after 2008. If not for
them Greece would not have made it to the Euro and the rest is history. Well
before I get into politics or geo-politics, let me get to the core issue for
what I am writing. DEMONETIZATION.
8TH November, the dreaded date when 86% of legal
tender went out of circulation, our economists & analysts predicted the December
quarter’s GDP as 6.5% or 6.7% or 6% depending on their level of pessimism covertly
labeled as pragmatism. But what happened in the next 52 days could be added as another
exception to the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility. On 8th
November 2016, even hard core misers went out to buy gold in kilos, medicines in
thousands, fuel in kilo-liters and booked tickets for soothing far flung
relatives. Even my 12 year old daughter took out her savings to contribute to
the monthly family medicinal budget. So did economic activity cease, No! But
there were economic disruptions which propelled digitalization into our lives seeping
into India’s middle-class psyche and the aftermath was evident in Uttar Pradesh assembly
elections.
Coming to the bone of contention, Indian GDP and how did it come
out to be 7.1% for the third quarter of 2017. To make them understand, just
wanted to do what my economic professor always loved to do, giving illustrations.
So let’s assume that you give a Rs. 10 note to a 10 year old and explicate to
him that this is the last time he would ever see or hold it as its going out of
circulation the very next day. The Kid will obviously buy an ice-cream or a chocolate.
This is what our Richie rich class, HNIs, traders and corporate did. They spent
where they could and traded where they couldn’t as evident from higher sales
numbers of SUVs and Utility vehicles of auto companies. As demonetization
exercise started after festive season of Dussera & Diwali, the yearly held
on discretionary expenditure was already done before the government’s due date.
In addition to that government accelerated its expenditure in December quarter
to make up for the lost economic activity. Companies across industries delivered
huge stocks to their dealers who willing paid in advance propelling current
accounts and helped CASA ratios of banking sector swell with liquidity and as a
result companies showing normal sales for the December quarter. So where does the
question arise of GDP getting impacted. You just need to get your calculations
right. Now that the GDP numbers are out, our learned pessimist economists are waiting
for the March quarter to unfold and prove them right. But before they could
pronounce the next quarter GDP, Manufacturing PMI and Factory output have rebounded.
So what is left? Nothing just optimism
which according to Henry Rollins, “Wears heavy boots and is loud” and we just
heard it on 11th March 2017. Right!!!

DREDGING CORPORATION OF INDIA LTD - BUY
Dredging Corporation of India Limited, or DCI, is engaged in
the business of dredging which involves maintenance dredging, capital dredging,
beach nourishment, land reclamation, shallow water dredging, Project Management
consultancy and Marine construction. The company is a Mini Ratna category- I
PSU with its head office at Visakhapatnam. The current market price of the
company spiked up today in morning trade as government stake sale is speculated in the market. The
company would definitely benefit from government selling its majority stake and
DCI moving to the private sector (in-case of a majority stake sale).
The current Profit After Tax for the December quarter stood
at Rs. 140 Mn against Net Loss of Rs. 196 Mn same period previous year. Income
from Operations was reported at Rs. 1519 Mn in the current quarter compared to Rs.
1614 Mn corresponding quarter previous year. Though Income from Operations have
declined 6% YOY, the company has reduced its operating cost 25% and finance
cost by 5% YOY. It would be a win-win situation for both the government &
the company as witnessed by the 10% intraday rise in the stock price. The government
with stake of about 73% may get a sizeable chunk of its disinvestment target and
DCI would benefit from privatization. Irrespective of disinvestment by the government, the stock is attractive for long term investment as DCI
is the leader in the Dredging industry in India and would benefit from the government
initiatives being undertaken with respect to various projects for inland
waterways and increase in merchandise trade. We recommend BUY for the stock
with a target price of Rs. 550 for medium & long term.
