As good as it gets: Rel Petro
Despite a decline in investors’ confidence in the stock market and the turmoil in global financial markets over the past six months, there remain a few events which are eagerly awaited by all. One such event is the commissioning of Reliance Petroleum (RPL)’s refinery in Jamnagar special economic zone (SEZ) — which is being tracked not just by its 2 million shareholders and stock market experts, but by global energy analysts as well.
The project is expected to serve as an example for its speed of execution, low capital cost and high complexity. However, the strength in global gross refining margins (GRMs) is unlikely to persist going forward, due to rising refinery capacity across the world. Though the positives associated with RPL’s refinery are obvious, we believe its current valuations have limited upside left.
ADVANTAGES GALORE Low Capital Cost:
RPL is being set up at a capital cost of only Rs 27,000 crore, i.e. around $6.5 billion, but a similar-sized refinery will currently require almost twice this amount. This is due to the fact that over the past three years, a number of refinery projects have been launched across the world, resulting in higher costs of equipment and engineering services.
Fast Project Execution:
The project was originally scheduled to be completed in 36 months by September ’08, with commercial production due to start in December ’08. However, the company intends to prepone the deadlines. It has already completed more than 90% of the work and the pre-commissioning activities in the main process units are progressing rapidly. In fact, Mukesh Ambani assured shareholders at the company’s annual general meeting (AGM) last month that “the refinery is expected to be completed ahead of schedule.”
Ability To Earn Higher GRMs:
RPL’s refinery will have the ability to handle very heavy and high sulphur crude to produce the best quality products. Similarly, its product slate will be better, thanks to its ability to totally eliminate lowvalue products such as fuel oil. Considering that the heavy-light differential in crude prices has reached $20 a barrel, RPL will be able to earn higher GRMs compared to its peers.
Tax Sops:
The SEZ location and focus on exports will exempt RPL’s profits from income tax (IT) fully for the first five years. The I-T exemption will be 50% for the next five years.
LIMITED UPSIDE
After enjoying a high tide in the past few months, Asian GRMs are now weakening. The International Energy Agency (IEA) in its monthly report for June ’08 elaborated on this fact. “While diesel remains highly profitable, gasoline cracks remain subdued and fuel oil cracks have reached record lows.” Even production of naphtha is generating losses. When overall GRMs turn weak, it is feared that commissioning of RPL’s refinery will lead to a glut situation, thereby further bringing down GRMs. The supply from RPL’s new refinery will represent almost 50% of the estimated incremental global oil demand in ’09. Nearly 2 million bpd of global refining capacity (including RPL) is expected to commence in ’09, which will weigh heavily on the GRMs. RPL operates in a business where there is little scope for volume-led growth compensating for a fall in margins. Hence, if GRMs turn weak from the current levels, the company’s bottomline may shrink.
VALUATIONS
We estimate the refinery will earn a premium of around $9 per barrel over Singapore benchmark complex refining margins, which are expected to remain at around $8 per barrel during FY10. Considering interest and depreciation charges, the company’s full-year net profit at 85% capacity level will stand at Rs 6,365 crore. This translates into a price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple of 10.9 on the current market price of Rs 154. Since petroleum refining is a capital-intensive cyclical business, it has traditionally commanded a single-digit P/E globally. Another way of looking at valuations , is the replacement cost of the refinery. RPL’s current market capitalisation of Rs 69,300 crore is around 38% higher than the estimated cost of setting up a similar refinery. Similarly, at current m-cap , RPL’s enterprise value (EV) is 8.5 times its estimated EBIDTA for FY10, which is slightly on the higher side compared to the global average. Hence, we believe that the upside in RPL’s scrip is limited in the short run.

Market glued to Tuesday's trust vote
Market glued to Tuesday's trust vote
D-St Outlook
The outcome of the crucial trust vote on Tuesday, which will not only decide the fate of the UPA government, but also Indo-US nuclear deal, will set the tone for equities this week. If the government fails the vote, it is expected to trigger the next major bout of selling, as investors are generally uncomfortable with unstable regimes. Going by the euphoria in the market in the last couple of sessions, also aided by declining global crude prices, it appears that investors expect the Congress-led UPA government to win the trust vote. Sentiment has been boosted by expectations that surviving the trust vote will prompt the UPA government to speed-up the languishing economic reforms process.
But, not everyone thinks the government’s survival in the trust vote would change India’s real economic conditions “Overall, it may well be that the Congress-led government survives the vote of confidence and limps on until 2009. However, there will be plenty of demand for populist action as each party, in what is likely to be a very unwieldy coalition, attempts to quickly make its mark before the general election,” said HSBC’s economists and strategists in a recent note.
Even if the market rallies, driven by the government’s survival in the trust vote, analysts believe upsides will be short-lived, as concerns such as inflation along with slowing economic and corporate profit growth remain. So far, for the first quarter, companies’ earnings have not sprung any positive surprises, with sales growth remaining stable, while profit growth getting squeezed.
“History suggests that the government’s ability to control growth and inflation is fairly limited and we suspect that it will go into the election with still high WPI (wholesale price index) inflation and softening economic activity,” the report added. As the week progresses, investor bets will likely shift to the outcome of RBI’s monetary policy review on July 29. Given that inflation has not mellowed, analysts expect the central bank to hike the repo rate as part of its attempts to contain prices. In the week to July 5, inflation, represented by the WPI index, rose to 11.91%, as against expectations of over 12% and up from 11.89% in the previous week. Banks and real estate shares may see build-up of short positions in the futures and options (F&O) markets ahead of the monetary policy review.
CLSA notes the 3,688-3,781 level marks an important pivot point for the Nifty, which closed at 4092.25 on Friday. Key corporate results this week include BHEL, Maruti Suzuki, Bharti Airtel, Reliance Industries, ACC, SAIL and Sesa Goa, among others. “These technical levels are important to take note of as they often mark the end of corrections. We would lighten up on existing short positions here. Initial resistance is provided by the August 2007 lows at 3,953-4,021 with key resistance found at 4,412-4,471,” the French brokerage said, in its recent trading strategy note.

Sensex companies valuation halved in six months
Sensex companies valuation halved in six months
BL Research Bureau For every rupee of earnings managed by BSE Sensex companies, investors are today willing to pay only half of what they paid in January 2008.
The market meltdown of 2008 has seen the Sensex value fall by 35 per cent till date, but it has halved the price-to-earnings multiple (PE multiple) for companies in the bellwether index.
The PE multiple of the Sensex, which was at a rich 28 times (based on historic 12-month earnings) at 21,000 levels, has plunged to a staid 14 times now, Bloomberg data shows. The lower valuation indicates that investors now expect Sensex companies to grow at only half the rate that they factored in, in January.
World over, investors value companies based on potential growth and the PE multiple is one of the widely used tools to evaluate how expensive or cheap stocks are, relative to their growth prospects. Worst in a decade
The erosion in Sensex PE multiple in this meltdown may be the worst in a decade, even including the dotcom crash of 2001. Banking and realty companies have been worst hit, with SBI seeing its PE multiple fall from 20 times to just 6, while DLF has seen its PE plunge from 90 times to 8 times.
Reliance Industries, Jaiprakash Associates, SBI, Tata Steel, Reliance Infrastructure (formerly Reliance Energy) and DLF, are among companies that have seen their PE multiples trimmed to half their January level.
Many of these companies have seen their valuation fall even as they managed a sharp ramp-up in their earnings for 2007-08. DLF (earnings per share grew from Rs 13 to Rs 47 between FY07 and FY08), Bharti Airtel (Rs 21 to Rs 34), HDFC (Rs 69 to Rs 100) are key instances. ‘De-rating’ stocks While concerns about rising interest rates have prompted investors to tone down growth expectations from bank and realty companies, worries about the economy slowing down have made them ‘de-rate’ infrastructure and capital goods stocks.
Companies in the Sensex basket that have managed to escape this bout of de-rating are Infosys, Satyam, Ranbaxy Labs, Cipla and Hindalco, which have more or less held on to their PE multiples.

Reliance Communications-MTN mutually end tie-up talks
Reliance Communications and South Africa's MTN on Friday mutually ended tie-up talks after Mukesh Ambani-owned Reliance Industries (RIL) on Thursday started arbitration proceedings against younger brother Anil's RCom to thwart the latter’s merger with Africa’s largest telco. RCom said that it is unable to presently conclude the deal due to regulatory issues. The No. 2 mobile carrier in the country has been in exclusive talks with MTN since late May to create a top-10 global telecoms group spanning about two dozen countries. But a claim by elder brother Mukesh of first right of refusal on Reliance Communications shares had complicated prospects for a deal.
The dispute took a fresh turn on Thursday when Mukesh, who runs RIL started arbitration proceedings on the share claim. However, Reliance Communications investors on Friday shrugged off the latest twist in a family squabble clouding the group. A 45-day exclusivity period between RCom and MTN expired earlier this month and an extension was due to end on Monday. The talks have been overshadowed by the dispute and whether MTN would risk striking a deal which could then be beholden to India's judicial system.

Market rejoices host of good news; Sensex up 4%
Market rejoices host of good news; Sensex up 4%
Investors had enough reasons to turn bullish on Friday and build on the gains of previous session. They not only covered short positions in interest sensitive sectors, but made fresh purchases in select blue chips.
After market hours on Thursday, government data showed India’s inflation for the week ended July 5 had risen to 11.91 per cent, higher from previous week's 11.89 per cent. The figure came as a surprise for the market which was expecting it around 12 per cent. Add to this, a statement from the Department of Economic Affairs that inflation had ‘stabilised’ was morale booster.
Mood in US financial market, which has been under pressure due to credit crisis, turned positive after lender JP Morgan Chase announced better than expected results.
US stocks rallied overnight also as oil prices dropped sharply. The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 1.85 per cent, Standard & Poor's 500 Index rose 1.20 per cent, and Nasdaq Composite Index climbed 1.20 per cent.
Steep fall in crude oil prices, a major concern for global economies, further strengthened sentiment. Oil hovered above $130 per barrel on Friday, after correcting more than 10 per cent in just three days from the record high of $147.27 on July 11. Rally in European markets also gave investors a chance to build on. FTSE 100 was higher by 1 per cent, DAX 30 up 1.79 per cent and CAC 40 added 0.79 per cent.
“Oil prices have come down and inflation figures were on expected lines. So far companies have announced good quarterly results. Many market participants have discounted outcome of vote of confidence and feel that the government will be able to scrape through. These all factors led to rally in the market,” said Rahul Sanghvi, institutional sales, Kantilal Chhaganlal Securities.
Bombay Stock Exchange’s Sensex closed at 13635.40, up 523.55 points or 3.99 per cent. It touched a high of 13684.27 and low of 13093.34. National Stock Exchange’s Nifty ended at 4092.25, up 3.67 per cent or 145.05 points. The broader index touched a high of 4,110.55 and low of 3,926.30.
“Selling by FIIs has reduced a bit and local mutual funds have initiated buying in blue chips like Larsen & Toubro, Tata Steel, Reliance Industries and Infosys Technologies. Valuations of most stocks look attractive at current levels,” Sanghvi added. Tier II and III stocks under performed the benchmarks as BSE Midcap Index closed 1.63 per cent high at 5239.39 and BSE Smallcap Index ended 1.08 per cent up 6,455.89.
Biggest Sensex gainers were ICICI Bank (12.46%), HDFC (10.13%), Jaiprakash Associates (8.86%), HDFC Bank (7.54%), Bharti Airtel (7.5%) and DLF (6.51%). Losers comprised Satyam Computer (-7.5%), Wipro (-4.42%), Ranbaxy Laboratories (3.72%), Tata Steel (3.38%) and Infosys Technologies (1.51%). Market breadth on BSE showed 1,608 advances and 985 declines, while on NSE, there were 849 gainers and 349 losers.
