Valuation gap between private and public sector banks to narrow going ahead

PSU banks appear to have lost favor amongst investors due to concerns relating to asset quality, change in management and capital adequacy. As a result, the valuation gap between public and private banks has widened with public banks trading at ~62% discount to private banks as compared to historical averages of ~50%. We believe that markets seem to be over-reacting and asset quality concerns appear to be priced in. The high restructured books of public sector banks which have acted as a dampener, on investor sentiments do not seem nearly as threatening once we exclude, SEB and Air India restructuring which is unlikely to slip into non performing asset category. Based on our calculations, the average impact from slippages of 15% from restructured books adjusted for Air India and SEBs is ~9% on the FY14E adjusted networth of banks. We expect these losses to be more than adequately compensated by gains from treasury books (~2-5% positive impact on adjusted networth of banks with a 100 bps decline in yields), recoveries and upgradations from cumulative slippages of FY10-13E (The average impact from recoveries (50%) is ~14% on FY14E adjusted net worth of our PSU banking universe) and recoveries from written off accounts (The average impact from recoveries (15%) is ~3.2% on FY14E adjusted net worth of our PSU banking universe). As a result we do not expect the adjusted book values of banks to decline further from current levels. Despite the recent run up, several public sector banks are trading below their long term one year forward P/ABV multiples and we expect valuations to move towards long term averages. Of the two important drivers of PSU banks stock performance, the first - bond rates already seems to have topped and is likely to see some easing going ahead, whereas concerns still remain in the second - NPA. Currently, the market expects the RBI to start the easing process which means yields dont have much upside risk (unless crude see a sharp up move). However while the market would want to play on likely lower bond yields, it is skeptical about the rising risk of nonperforming assets. However we believe though slippages will remain higher than historical averages, recoveries and up gradations will keep a check on net slippages in the coming quarters. Moreover with policy reforms and likely improvement in economic activity during FY14 vs. FY13, we believe the gap between private and PSU banks will narrow going ahead.

Executive summary
Recoveries likely to improve going ahead Recoveries/Upgrades rate currently trending at 10 year low at 20% for select banks vs. 10 year average of 60%, whereas street estimates are factoring in low recoveries in line with those seen in FY12 and H1FY13. Thus a pickup in recoveries could prove to be a re-rating factor for public sector banks in next two years. We have analyzed the upside to currently estimated net worth for select public sector banks under three recovery scenario (Rate of recovery/Upgrade moving to 40%, 50% and 60% of cumulative slippages of FY10-13E). The average impact from recoveries (50%) is ~14% on FY14E adjusted net worth of our PSU banks universe. Written off book at 22% of networth can prove to be a hidden gem The second biggest helping hand would most likely come from the written off books of banks. Based on our calculations, the average prudentially written off book for PSBs in our study stands at 22% of FY14 adjusted net-worth. We have analyzed the upside to the networth on account of recovery from written off accounts. The average impact from recoveries (15%) is ~3.2% on FY14E adjusted net worth of our PSU banks universe.

Restructured book largely seasoned or government guaranteed The higher restructuring for public sector banks is partly due to restructuring in FY09-10 under the RBIs special dispensation scheme and partly due to Air India and SEBs restructuring which is unlikely to slip into NPA category. The restructured book excluding the seasoned and government guaranteed portion would indicate much lower stress in the book as compared to stress visible prima facie. We have analyzed the downside to the adjusted net-worth of banks on account of slippages from the restructured book excluding Air India and SEB exposure. The average impact from slippage of 15% is ~9% on the FY14E adjusted net-worth of banks (20% slippage would have an impact of 12%). Restructured book vs. restructured excluding AI and SEB exposure

Investment recovery likely with policy initiative A majority of the companies with stalled project studied by our economy team reported that policy issues such as land acquisition delay in environmental clearance, mining policy, fuel linkages and spectrum pricing were the main reason for the high incidence of stalled projects in the economy. These together accounts for about 68% of total stalled projects. Majority of these stalled projects are in power, roads and mining sectors which remain the major stress points for banks.

Banking Sector In the last couple of months, we have seen some concrete policy intentions towards solving these issues with FinMins fast track reform initiatives. Clearance of the most conflicting issue of retail FDI in both the houses reflects would help the current government to fast track its most pending decisions. Some of the important measures which can change the investment climate of the country include new FSAs expected to be signed by Coal India with better pricing mechanism, proposal to set up a Committee on Infrastructure, the State Electricity Distribution Responsibility Bill and setting up a National Investment Board (NIB). These along with step towards financial restructuring scheme of discoms are likely to bring financial turnaround of discoms. Hence, the recent policy initiatives such as permitting FDI in retail trade, civil aviation and power trading exchanges and rationalization of diesel prices will help improve the investment climate. Decline in interest rates to improve investment climate It is expected that RBI is likely to move toward easy monetary policy in coming few quarters which would be the biggest trigger for change in investment climate. This would make lot of project viable and along with policy initiatives would improve debt servicing capability of corporates. SBI base rate is currently ~50bps higher than 1 year CP rates indicating room for base rate to decline by 25-50bps in near term

Price performance of PSBs are highly correlated to risky yields Historically, we have observed that valuation of PSBs is highly correlated to high risk corporate bond yields (1 Year BBB corporate bond yield). This is largely due to the fact that BBB bond yield is best barometer for asset quality stress as well as liquidity. In case of falling BBB bond yield, PSB stock price rallies due to a) expected improvement in liquidity scenario which would help banks to improve margins b) likely improvement in the economy to reduce asset quality stress and c) falling interest rate would result in gain in bond book. Considering SBI as proxy for PSBs, as we can see from chart below that SBI has rallied faster than the pace of fall in BBB bond yields and vice versa (we consider inverse BBB bond yield for simplicity).

Banking Sector Valuation gap between public and private banks has increased The Indian economy is going through challenging times consisting of volatility in liquidity, crude, inflation and growth. This has taken a toll on the prospects of the banking sector which is plagued with uncertainty relating to the monetary policy actions of the RBI and slower credit growth. Additionally, elevated interest rates are impacting the net interest margins and asset quality of banks. We believe that the macro concerns are unlikely to reverse in the near term. Hence we expect sharp volatility in the PSU banking space and cannot deny further downward risks to macro growth and stock prices. Due to the absence of any near term trigger, this segment may remain volatile, however currently valuations are below long term averages for several public sector banks which has led to a widening in the discount between them and their private sector counterparts. Historically public sector banks have traded at a ~50% discount to new private sector banks. Post the recent run up in private sector banking stocks, the discount has widened significantly with public sector banks trading at ~62% discount to private banks. Thus despite the challenging environment we harbor a positive bias towards public sector banks due to their reasonable valuations. Of the two important drivers of PSU banks stock performance, the first - bond rates already seems to have topped and is likely to see some easing going ahead, whereas concerns still remain in the second - NPA. Currently, the market expects the RBI to start the easing process which means yields dont have much upside risk (unless crude see a sharp upmove). However while the market would want to play on likely lower bond yields, it is skeptical about the rising risk of nonperforming assets. Valuation summary

This time its different


Our quest for understanding the reason for the widening valuation gap leads us to question whether every economical downturn has led to investors switching from public banks to private banks, thus leading to an increase in the valuation gap between the two. An evaluation of bank valuations in FY08 reveals that the answer to this question is in the negative. In FY08, valuations of both public and private banks came off to leave the gap in line with the average of ~50%.

Scams, asset quality issues and policy paralysis have led to negative sentiments towards all PSUs
Scams, asset quality issues and policy paralysis have led to negative sentiments towards all public companies not only banks. This is depicted through the returns of the BSE PSU index which has considerably underperformed the sensex over the past year.

Is the market over-reacting?


The downtrend in PSU stocks over the past year leads us to question whether the market is overreacting to news flows relating to scams and policy deadlocks. According to behavioral economists, investors often fall prey to over-reaction and availability bias. This occurs when investors over-react to new information which is easily available thus creating a larger than justified impact on share prices which is usually corrected in the future.

Winners & Losers


In 1985, behavioral finance academics Werner De Bondt and Richard Thaler released a study in the Journal of Finance called "Does the Market Overreact?" In this study, the two examined returns on the New York Stock Exchange for a three-year period. From these stocks, they separated the best 35 performing stocks into a "winners portfolio" and the worst 35 performing stocks were then added to a "losers portfolio". De Bondt and Thaler then tracked each portfolio's performance against a representative market index for three years. Surprisingly, it was found that the losers portfolio consistently beat the market index, while the winners portfolio consistently underperformed. In total, the cumulative difference between the two portfolios was almost 25% during the three-year time span. In other words, it appears that the original "winners" would became "losers", and vice versa. So what happened? In both the winners and losers portfolios, investors essentially overreacted. In the case of loser stocks, investors overreacted to bad news, driving the stocks' share prices down disproportionately. After some time, investors realized that their pessimism was not entirely justified, and these losers began rebounding as investors came to the conclusion that the stock was underpriced. The exact opposite is true with the winners portfolio: investors eventually realized that their exuberance wasn't totally justified. According to the availability bias, people tend to heavily weight their decisions toward more recent information, making any new opinion biased toward that latest news

Bridging the gap


We believe that the widening valuation gap between private and public sector banks is likely to close in and move towards the mean of ~50%. This is because problems associated with public sector banks such as bureaucracy and corruption have always been known which is why public banks trade at such a steep discount to private banks. The widening gap appears to be an overreaction to policy paralysis and asset quality issues which is likely to correct. The correction could take place in three ways: Valuations of private sector banks could come off Valuations of private sector banks could come off by ~12%. Probability of this happening is low because valuations are close to the mean. To safeguard against this we should stay with cheaper private sector banks like Axis Bank and ICICI Bank. Adjusted book values of public sector banks could correct by 12% Adjusted book values of public sector banks could correct by 12%. This could happen through the erosion of book value due to higher slippages. However the probability of this happening is low due to the reasons discussed in the following section. Valuations of public sector banks could increase by 12% Adjusted book values of public sector banks could increase by 12%. We believe that this is the most likely scenario. As a result we are positive on the public sector banking space. Downside to public sector bank valuations appear limited from current levels We believe that the downside to public sector bank valuations appear limited from current levels due to the following reasons: Estimates are already factoring in accelerated slippages for public sector banks Estimates are already factoring in accelerated slippages for public sector banks, significantly higher than the average slippages seen over the past five years.

Why is this situation unlikely?


We believe that the above situation appears unlikely based on the following factors: An improvement in growth could lead to asset quality improvement Asset quality, as the chart below suggests, is inversely proportional to GDP growth, thus asset quality is likely to witness an improvement once GDP growth starts to look up. GDP growth which stood at ~8.5% in FY10 and FY11 came off to 6.5% in FY12 and H1FY13. The slowdown in GDP growth was due to several reasons including a slowdown in agricultural growth, Inflation and a slowdown in investments due to policy paralysis. Addressing these factors could help bring the economy back on the growth path. Trend in GDP growth and asset quality

Delayed rainfall impacted Kharif but Rabi crop expected to be good The south-west monsoon which was deficient and unevenly distributed in June and July had adversely impacted sowing of the Kharif crop. However, higher than LPA rainfall in the months of August and September significantly brought down the cumulative rainfall deficit to 92% of LPA (upto September 30). The good rainfall towards the end of the season has improved soil moisture content and reservoir levels, thus raising prospects for a good Rabi crop. However, the production weighted rainfall index (PRN) constructed by RBI indicated a deficiency of 13%. Deficient rainfall resulted in shortfall in area sown for several crops especially cereals and pulses. Despite higher food inflation, we do not expect higher NPAs on account of the same as lately banks have begun to secure agricultural loans against securities such as gold. This has now turned into a significant part of current exposure. (E.g. 45% of SBIs agriculture exposure is secured with gold). Hence, default risk from this book is significantly mitigated. We can see this in the reducing proportion of priority sector NPAs in FY12 as compared to FY11.

Unsecured loan books for all banks have come off in FY12 Banks have brought down their unsecured loan books in FY12 as compared to FY11. The proportion of unsecured loans has come off to 17.4% in FY12 as compared to 19.4% in FY11. The outstanding unsecured loan book for new private and public banks stands at par at ~17.6%. Meanwhile outstanding unsecured loan book for old private banks is significantly lower at 12%. A reduction in unsecured loans could lead to lower slippages and higher recoveries going ahead.

A slowdown in demand coupled with banks being selective about lending to risky segments has caused the slowing in loan book growth. The cautious stance adopted by banks towards lending is likely to result in lower slippages going ahead.

Treasury gains to boost profitability & provide a buffer for provisioning


The ten year G-Sec yields have remained at elevated levels over the past year owing to the RBIs reluctance in cutting the repo rate. However the RBI has indicated that it is looking at reducing the repo rate in the last quarter of FY13. OIS spreads are factoring in around 100bps reduction in the repo rate within the next one year. A reduction in the yields could lead to writebacks on the investment depreciation provision undertaken by public sector banks. In the table below we have calculated the impact of a 100 bps reduction in repo rate on the PAT and networth of select banks. According to our analysis, a 100 bps reduction in the yields would positively impact the FY14 adjusted networth of PSBs by ~2-5% and FY14 PAT by 6-28% depending on banks AFS book and duration. These writebacks would also provide some room for public sector banks to make higher loan loss provisions. Trend in 10 year G-Sec yields

Although, it has been on the agenda of the RBI to bring down its statutory liquidity ratio (SLR), over the past 15 years, it has only been reduced by 200 bps. In July 2012, the RBI brought down its SLR by 100 bps to 23%. A sudden and sharp fall in SLR holding of banks is unlikely considering the steep U-turn in the budget deficit trend resulting in a massive rise in government bond issuances but the SLR cut is definitely a move in the right direction by the RBI. While banks have voluntarily increased their SLR holdings especially PSU Banks (to fund government issues and as a risk aversion measure), their bond holding is unlikely to remain in this range over the next few years once the fiscal situation improves or FII investment limit is hiked. A reduction in the SLR would help boost profitability of banks, which could in turn be used to shore up provision coverage ratios. Current SLR vs. mandatory SLR requirement for public banks

Recoveries likely to improve going ahead


Historically trends show that recoveries and up-gradations move in line with GDP growth. We have analyzed past trends for recoveries from FY03-12 for PNB and UBI (reductions excluding write-off and asset sale). Data for these banks reveals that these are trending at 10 year lows of ~20% as compared to long term average of ~62%. Going ahead we expect recoveries to improve and move closer to long term averages which along with higher write-offs and asset sales would boost profits.

Street estimates are factoring in low recoveries in line with those seen in FY12 and H1FY13. Thus a pickup in recoveries could prove to be a re-rating factor for public sector banks in next two years. We have analyzed the upside to currently estimated net worth for select public sector banks under three recovery scenario (Rate of recovery/Upgrade moving to 40%, 50% and 60% of cumulative slippages during FY10-13E). The average impact from recoveries (50%) is ~14% on FY14E adjusted net worth. The results are highlighted in the table below. Impact of recoveries on adjusted net-worth

Written off book at 22% of networth can prove to be a hidden gem


The second biggest helping hand would most likely come from the written off books of banks. Based on our calculations, the average prudentially written off book for PSBs in our study stands at 22% of FY14 adjusted net-worth. Since the written off book in our calculation is only accounts which are written off from the head office and not from branches, the reason behind a majority of the write offs are to report better asset quality number and for tax benefits. Hence, we believe that ~15-20% recovery from this book is the most likely probability considering the large gap between the demand from ARC and prices expected by the banks management.

Restructured book largely seasoned or government guaranteed


The higher restructuring for public sector banks is partly due to restructuring in FY09-10 under the RBIs special dispensation scheme and partly due to Air India and SEBs restructuring which is unlikely to slip into NPA category. Most of the outstanding restructured book of FY09-10 is performing and the weaker part has already slipped into NPA. Slippages from the performing restructured book of 2009-10 is likely to be very low as these assets are already servicing their debt post the expiry of the moratorium period. Also, we dont see any slippage from Air India or SEB accounts in next two years due to moratorium. Additionally, considering that the large proportion of SEB and Air India restructuring is already completed, we expect incremental restructuring to come off from H2FY13. However, standard asset provisioning on restructured book is likely to remain high due to the RBIs intention of increasing the provisions on the same.

Select indicators suggest a revival in manufacturing


Select indicators (such as trend in new order book, raw material inventories, GFCF and manufacturing PMI) along with recent government measures suggest that manufacturing activity could see a revival henceforth, which would have a positive bearing on GDP growth. A revival in manufacturing and GDP growth would lead to lower non-performing assets for banks. Average growth in new orders for Q1FY13 stood at 19.4% yoy and 3% qoq as compared to 3.5% yoy and 2.8% qoq in Q4FY12. Additionally raw material inventory to sales ratio has increased at a faster pace as compared to finished goods inventory thus suggesting an increase in manufacturing going ahead. The HSBC manufacturing PMI has been largely stable at ~53 over the past four months suggesting that it could have bottomed out. Capacity utilization too is close to recent lows at ~72%, leading us to believe that it could witness a revival from these levels. Trend in manufacturing PMI

Narrow Money (M1) is directly linked to corporate sales


Improvement in narrow money growth could be considered as a primary indicator of a revival in economic activity. M1 represent demand deposit of corporate and currency with public. Since both together reflect the core liquidity in the system, improvement in M1 growth generally result in improvement in economic activity and sales of corporates. Higher currency with public would mean better spending capability and higher demand deposit with corporates is generally a precursor to either better production or higher capex.

Investment recovery likely with policy initiative


Index of Industrial Production (IIP) has seen a sharp deceleration during April-Sept 2012 which is mostly led by capital goods, mining and power. Capital goods remained the biggest culprit indicating slowdown in investment activity and slowing external demand. Mining sector continued to contract due to regulatory and environmental issues. Power generation moderated on account of shortages in coal supply and uneven monsoon conditions. Ex capital goods, growth rate of IIP declined but still positive.

The major reasons behind the slowdown in growth are high interest rates, fuel un-availability and government policy paralysis. Despite large new power capacity additions witnessed during the Eleventh Plan (about 55 GW of new capacity created), majority of it was in thermal power which was impacted by coal shortages resulting in lower utilization rates. In the absence of committed Fuel Supply Agreements (FSAs), demand-supply gap is expected to elevate further during the Twelfth Plan and new powers project are expected to face further clearances problem. This is further exaggerated by stress in power distribution with large accumulated losses of discoms. This demands fast decisions to improve investment in the sector, especially by easing policy constraints and removing major supply bottlenecks.

So can the tide turn?


A majority of the companies with stalled project studied by our economy team reported that policy issues such as land acquisition delay in environmental clearance, mining policy, fuel linkages and spectrum pricing were the main reason for the high incidence of stalled projects in the economy. These together accounts for about 68% of total stalled projects. Of the 191 projects studied, about 93 projects entailing an investment close to Rs 6.7 tn in the infrastructure space were stalled for various reasons. The most prominent reason being the problem of land acquisition with projects worth Rs. 3.1 tn. Next biggest issues being raw material unavailability like fuel & bauxite and environmental clearance. Three biggest sectors largely impacted by project stalled are Power, Transport (mainly roads) and Metal & Mining accounting for 64% of total stalled projects. These sectors remain the biggest stress sector for banks and are reflected in large proportion into restructured book.

Banking Sector In last couple of months, we have seen some concrete policy intentions towards solving these issues with FinMins fast track reform initiatives. Clearance of the most conflicting issue of retail FDI in both the houses reflects would help the current government to fast track its most pending decisions. Some of the important measures which can change the investment climate of the country include new FSAs expected to be signed by Coal India with better pricing mechanism, proposal to set up a Committee on Infrastructure, the State Electricity Distribution Responsibility Bill and setting up a Cabinet Committee on Investment (CCI) or NIB. These along with step towards financial restructuring scheme of discoms are likely to bring financial turnaround of discoms. Hence, the recent policy initiatives such as permitting FDI in retail trade, civil aviation & power trading exchanges and rationalization of diesel prices will help improve the investment climate. High incidence of stalled projects in the Power sector, Road and Mining sector which is biggest stress point for banks Out of the total stalled projects amounting to Rs 11.4 tn since 2008 (191 projects of more than Rs 10 bn) Rs 6.9 tn which is about 60% are projects started implementation and are stalled. More than 80% of these are in from sectors such as Power, Metals & Mining, Real Estate and Transport sector (i.e. Rs 5.5 tn). Of the balance 45% (Rs 4.5 tn) of the projects (i.e. project that have not seen any investment) 50% contributed by Power and Metals & Mining sector. Hence, the high incidence of stalled projects in power and metals & mining sector indicates slow pace of growth in the investment activity and is the major reason for the stress in books of banks.

Policy reform Hopes come alive after both houses cleared FDI retail Fast tracking of the policy reform could result in clearance of some of the major project which would result improvement in investment climate in the economy and better asset quality among banks. Of the 191 stalled projects, the most prominent reason for them being stalled are the problem of land acquisition with projects worth Rs 3.1 tn stuck on account of unavailability of land. Among project implemented and stalled, almost 60% (about Rs 4tn) are stalled due to policy issues such as land acquisition, delay in environmental clearance, mining policy, fuel linkages and spectrum pricing. However, in case of project announced and stalled, policy issues accounts for about 40% of total stalled projects (Rs 1.8 tn). Raw material unavailability (like fuel & bauxite shortage) is another major reason responsible for current slowdown in investments, with projects worth Rs 1.8 tn stuck on account of the same.

Cabinet Committee on Investment (CCI) or NIB One step forward


To speed up clearances of big infrastructure projects, Finance Minister P. Chidambaram in Sept12 pitched for the setting up of a Cabinet Committee on Investment (CCI) or NIB headed by the Prime Minister and has ministers from key ministry like Law, Finance and Justice as its members. As per the proposal once the final decision is taken by the NIB, no other ministry or government department will have the authority to challenge this clearance or delay in the projects implementation. Considering most of the major ministries from centre and state would be part of the board, CCI will supersede the various lines of clearance and would fast track the process. Our study shows that of the 93 infrastructure projects stalled having an outlay of more than `10 bn, projects worth Rs 1.3 tn have been held up for want of environment clearance. This amount would move up to Rs 1.6 tn if we consider RBI definition of Infrastructure which includes Mining sector. The formation of the proposed NIB will help in fast tracking the clearances of these investments and bring to the main stream.

Coal price pooling by Coal India Ltd may change the face of Indian power sector and could lead to reduction of asset quality stress
Availability of coal for thermal power stations is a matter of concern. According to working group for 12th five year plan, coal requirement for power sector is expected to be around 682 mn tonnes (at 100% PLF) by FY17. Against the requirement of 682 mn tonnes, 54 mn tonnes is expected to be imported by thermal power stations designed to use imported coal. SCCL has confirmed supply of 35 mn tonnes and c.100 mn tonnes are expected to be available from captive coal blocks. Thus 493mn tonnes need to be made available by CIL to power stations. Considering 312mn tonnes supplied by CIL in FY12, CIL needs to supply at a CAGR of 10% over next five years to meet power sector demand in India. With new FSAs; where in CIL takes the onus of importing coal on behalf of power utilities we can expect huge imports by CIL in near future.

CIL takes the onus of meeting the demand by bridging it with imported coal

Total requirement of coal from power plants is expected at c.682 mn tonnes by FY2016-17, but with FSA/LOA signed at 85%, total requirement is trimmed c.583mn tonnes by FY2016-17. CIL with its new FSAs has committed to supply 80% of its FSA qty without attracting any penalty under which 65% would be met by its indigenous production and remaining 15% through imported coal. CIL supplied 312 mn tonnes to power sector in FY12. To meet 65% FSA qty it has to maintain a CAGR of 7%, failing which it would have to divert e-auction coal to power sector.

We believe Coal price pooling could be a better option for the industry as coal availability is the major issue rather than coal price. Domestic coal is available at significant lower prices when compared to imported prices (40% discount). We believe coal pool pricing could lead to price hike of merely 8% in coal prices in contrast to nearly 60-70% price hike for power plants solely based on imported coal. Such higher power cost poses more problem rather than 8% hike in overall costs (as per our Metal analyst calculation).

Who gains? Private sector power plants tend to gain Price pooling will fulfill the FSA requirements of nearly one third of the countrys thermal power capacity, the bulk of which is in pvt sector. The cost of the coal is proposed to be subsidized by existing generation utilities, mostly in the public sector. Once the price pooling model is adopted, power tariffs for plants located in the East are expected to increase more in comparison to the units that are in the coastal regions of the West ; as plants in the Eastern belt of India mostly use domestic coal. Implementation of CPP would be significantly positive for the banking sector Coal pool pricing thus if implemented can change the face of Indian power sector by assuring the supply of feed stock. This in turn would be hugely positive for Indian banking sector which is reeling under the asset quality stress from power sector. Though the coal pooling price mechanism would take time to get implemented but it assures the long term sustainability of the upcoming and already installed power plants. Banks with highest exposure in Infra and Iron & Steel tend to benefit most if even a part of the above steps are taken as this would reduce stressed assets. Sunidhi Research | 28

Decline in interest rate to improve investment climate


It is expected that the RBI is likely to move towards an easy monetary policy in the coming few quarters which would be the biggest trigger for a change in the investment climate. This would make a lot of projects viable and along with policy initiatives would improve the debt servicing capability of banks. As indicated by the charts below, we believe that there is room for interest rates to go lower and harbor expectations of easing in the coming few quarter.

RBI should start softening soon


SBI base rate is currently ~50bps higher than 1 year CP rates indicating room for base rate to decline by 25-50bps in near term

Break in sticky upward trend of core inflation a major positive in Oct WPI
WPI inflation for Oct 12 eased to the lowest this fiscal to 7.45% against a reading of 7.81% in Sept The ease was broad based with major groups of primary articles, fuel & power and manufactured products marking a dip. One positive aspect of the Oct WPI number has been that the sticky upward trend in core inflation (manufactured products ex food inflation) broke with the core inflation falling below the 5.5% (at 5.2%) for the first time in last 3 months, with the MoM WPI core inflation rising by a mere 0.1% in Oct. Going forward, we believe that the downward pressure on the Primary Articles Inflation will continue on account of ease in food prices with better prospects of rabi food output. Food inflation has already eased to 6.6% in Oct from the annual Avg of 9.5%. The manufactured group of inflation could also continue with its downward trend as slowing demand in the economy adds to the easing pressure on the manufactured inflation. Trend in Core Inflation

Price performance of PSBs are highly correlated to risky yields


Historically, we have observed that valuation of PSBs is highly correlated to high risk corporate bond yields (1 Year BBB corporate bond yield). This is largely due to the fact that BBB bond yield is best barometer for asset quality stress as well as liquidity. In case of falling BBB bond yield, PSB stock price rallies due to a) expected improvement in liquidity scenario which would help banks to improve margins b) likely improvement in the economy to reduce asset quality stress and c) falling interest rate would result in gain in bond book. Considering SBI as proxy for PSBs, as we can see from chart below that SBI has rallied faster than the pace of fall in BBB bond yields and vice versa (we consider inverse BBB bond yield for simplicity).

Valuation gap between private and PSU banks to narrow going ahead
Historically public sector banks have traded at a ~50% discount to new private sector banks. Post the recent run up in private sector banking stocks, the discount has widened significantly with public sector banks trading at ~62% discount to private banks. Thus despite the challenging environment we harbor a positive bias towards public sector banks due to their reasonable valuations. Of the two important drivers of PSU banks stock performance, the first - bond rates already seems to have topped and is likely to see some easing going ahead, whereas concerns still remain in the second - NPA. Currently, the market expects the RBI to start the easing process which means yields dont have much upside risk (unless crude see a sharp upmove). However while the market would want to play on likely lower bond yields, it is skeptical about the rising risk of nonperforming assets. We believe that though slippages will remain high as compared to historic averages recoveries and up gradations will keep a check on net slippages in the coming quarters. Moreover with more policy reforms and likely improvement in economic activity during FY14 vs. FY13, we believe the gap between private and PSU banks to narrow going ahead. Banks represent 20% of the weight-age in the BSE Sensex and 19.4% in the BSE100 given the sectors involvement in every aspect of Indias growth. However, within the sector the composition is largely tilted towards private sector banks. Meanwhile public sector banks dominate all major banking parameters including profits, business etc. This analysis is further heightened on comparing the weight-age of PSBs ex SBI. On comparison of market share in basic parameters such as credit, deposits etc, PSBs (ex SBI) represent 55-60% of the share in FY12 vs. an index weight-age of just ~10% in the Bankex and the Bank nifty. In terms of the Sensex and the BSE100, banks represent 19-20% weight-age represented largely by private banks at 15-16% where as PSBs (ex SBI) weight-age is only 2% in BSE100 and zero in the Sensex. The following chart depicts the difference in representation of PSBs and private banks in terms of market share and representation in stock indices Sunidhi Research | 31

Key risks
The government reforms initiated in September including FDI in retail, aviation, diesel price hikes, SEB restructuring etc, have helped improve investors sentiment and portfolio flows. They have also helped to reduce risks of downgrades and sharp rupee depreciation. However, some critical economic issues still persist which remain the key downside risk to the banking sector which includes fiscal deficit, inflation, CAD issue, liquidity risk. Although some of the policy initiative like direct cash transfer would reduce the stress marginally but weak global financial conditions and higher pre budget spending could worsen the conditions. Hence, this would require an improvement in the external condition in addition to continued policy action by the government and central bank. Pre-election spending could lead to fiscal slippages We expect the fiscal deficit (state + centre deficit) to be around 8.5% given only select measures taken by the government to contain the fiscal deficit. Also, considering we are approaching an election year (2014), we could see a sharp rise in government expenditure whereas income is largely inelastic. Historically, government expenditure rises at a faster pace during an election year as per the chart below. Consistent high crude prices could result in risks of a higher subsidy burden. Similarly, fertilizer and food subsidy bills are also likely to surprise on the upside. Weaker than expected tax revenues along with higher expenditure and more budget deficit for the state are likely to result in poor fiscal deficit numbers. Trend in central government expenditure

Inflation pressures still persist As inflation in the near term has remained above the RBI comfort zone, rate cuts have been pushed further with the RBI stating that rate cuts could only take place during the last quarter of FY13. Going ahead inflation could surprise and remain at higher levels on the back of the recent diesel price hike, electricity tariff hikes in several states and a 40% increase in the minimum support price. However, we believe the base effect would come in favor during Q4FY13. Trend in WPI and core inflation

Current account deficit risk high CAD which widened to an all time high of 4.2% of GDP during FY12 narrowed to 3.9% for Q1FY13 but still remains distant from the governments target of 3.5%. This is largely led by higher international energy price, rising gold import and rupee weakness. The Oct12 Trade Deficit widened to a record $20.96 billion leaving the challenge open that slower growth has not resulted in lower imports. However, in case of global slowdown, funding of fiscal deficit would remain the biggest risk due to lack of capital flows. Trend in current account deficit

Tight liquidity could result in higher short term rates Net borrowings under the LAF window continued to remain in deficit mode of approximately Rs 800 bn currently. This is post liquidity infusion by RBI via CRR cuts of 175bps in FY12-FY13 combined with a +Rs 1tn of infusion YoY via OMO. Considering seasonality in loan book growth in Q4, likely overshooting of fiscal deficit and higher working capital requirements, we could see liquidity tighten further by the fiscal year end. Loan Deposit growth gap continues to remain high which could provide limited room for credit growth unless deposit picks up. This could result in higher short term wholesale rates by fiscal end.

Allahabad Bank
Asset quality improvement in sight, Maintain Buy Allahabad bank was founded in 1865 by a group of Europeans, making it one of Indias oldest public sector banks. It is a midsized bank with a branch network of over 2500 branches, located predominantly in the eastern region. The bank had in the past traded at a discount to its peers on account of asset quality concerns and its geographical concentration in the eastern region. However, in the past few years the bank has managed to improve its asset quality and is focusing on expanding its branch network in Casa rich southern and western states. NIM likely to stabilize During Q2FY13, the bank reported a sharp decline in the NIM to 2.8% from 3.2% in Q1FY13. The decline in the NIM was due to interest reversals on non performing assets. Cost of deposit declined in Q2FY13 due to shedding of high cost bulk deposit. Going ahead NIM is likely to stabilize and we have factored a recovery of NIM to 3% by Q4FY13. Recoveries can be a big trigger Allahabad Bank reported a surge in slippages during Q2FY13 with its slippage rate accelerating to 6.2% from 2.1% in Q1FY13. The deterioration in asset quality was on account of the difference in opinion with RBI on treatment of restructured assets. Going ahead, we expect asset quality to improve on the back of lower slippages and higher recoveries. Assuming recoveries of 50% and 60% on additions during FY1013E, the impact on the adjusted networth of Allahabad Bank would be ~15% and ~23% for FY14E respectively. Restructured book excluding Air India and SEBs at 6.5% of loan book While the restructured book for Allahabad Bank is one of the highest amongst public sector banks at 11.5% of the loan book, a large part of it consists of loans to Air India and SEBs. Loans to Air India and SEBs are unlikely to slip into non performing asset category. Excluding Air India and SEB exposure, the banks restructured book stands lower at 6.5%. Revival in fee income and treasury gains to boost non-interest income Allahabad Banks non-interest income has been muted in FY12 and YTD FY13. Going ahead we expect a revival in non-interest income on the back of higher fee income and treasury gains. We expect the fee income to revive in FY14 and expect it to improve to ~0.8% of average advances. Additionally the bank has interest sensitive AFS book of ~23% of its total investment book with a modified duration of 2.8 for SLR AFS book. A 100 bps change in yields would have 13% imapct on the banks FY14E PAT and 2.9% on FY14E Adj NW. Tax provisions surge to 30% Contrary to management guidance for FY13, the tax rate for Q2FY13 came in at 30% due to lower writeoffs and availing of concession. We have assumed tax rate of 28% for FY13. Maintain Buy with a target price of `190: At the CMP of `159, the bank trades at 0.9x its FY13E ABV and 0.8x its FY14E ABV. At these levels the bank trades at a discount to its long term average one year forward P/ABV ratio. We maintain our Buy recommendation and target price of `190 (0.9x FY14E ABV) on the stock.

Bank of Baroda
Change of guard to remain a hangover in the near term Banking Sector Outlook - Neutral
Initiating Coverage
Bank of Baroda CAGR (FY12-14E)

Bank of Baroda (BOB) is one of the largest public sector utility banks in India. As of Q2FY13, it had a loan book of `2921 bn. Overseas loans comprise 32% of the loan book. The bank has 4021 domestic branches as on Q2FY13, over half of which are in semi urban and rural areas. In H2FY13, the Bank plans to open 475 new branches with 241 branches in Tier-I & Tier-II centres & 234 branches in Tier-III to Tier-VI centres. Recoveries from slippages and written off accounts to boost profitability As the asset quality for Bank of Baroda has been better than its peers with lower slippages as compared to other public sector banks, recoveries are likely to be lower as well. However assuming a 50% recovery rate from assets slipped into non performing category from FY10-13E, upside to adjusted networth would be ~9% in FY14E and this number increases to ~13% assuming a 60% recovery rate. Additionally recoveries from written off accounts, assuming a 15% recovery rate would lead to a 1.8% upside to networth in FY14E. Restructured book lower as compared to peers Total restructured book outstanding for Bank of Baroda as on Q2FY13 stands at 7.2% lower as compared to its peers. Adjusting for restructured loans to SEBs and Air india which are unlikely to slip into NPA category, the restructured book stands at 5.7%. High modified duration of AFS book to lead to higher treasury gains The modified duration of BOBs AFS book stands high at 3.5, as a result a 1% reduction in yield could lead to MTM writebacks of `6.3 bn which would have an impact of 11.0% on the banks FY14E PAT and 1.9% on the banks FY14E adjusted networth. Lower exposure to troubled sectors as compared to peers BOBs exposure to sensitive sectors is lower as compared to several peers such as BOI, SBI, PNB, Canara Bank. BOBs total infrastructure exposure stands at 12.2% of advances (FY12) as compared to 13.8% for BOI, 21.6% for SBI, 18.2% for PNB and 22% for Canara Bank. Initiate coverage with a NEUTRAL rating and a target price of `877: At the CMP of `792, the bank trades at 1.2x its FY13E ABV and 1.0x its FY14E ABV. At these levels the bank trades below its average one year forward P/ABV multiple. Bank of Baroda with its lower exposure to troubled sectors, smaller restructured book and sound return ratios is a sound pick amongst public sector banking stocks. However the likely change of management may remain a hangover for the stock performance in the near term. We initiate coverage on BOB with a neutral rating and a target price of `877 (1.1x FY14E ABV)

Bank of India
Asset quality concerns remain, Initiate with Hold Banking Sector Outlook - Neutral
Initiating Coverage
Bank of India CAGR (FY12-14E)

Bank of India (BoI) is one of Indias largest PSBs with a total asset size of `3957 bn. BoIs lending book stood at `2604 bn, while its deposits amounted to `3327 bn in Q2FY13. The bank is primarily focused on lending to large corporates which made up 49% of non food credit in Q2FY13 followed by services at 27% , agriculture at 13% and retail at 11%. Asset quality concerns persist Asset quality remained volatile in Q2FY13 trends with %GNPA rising by ~85bps QoQ to 3.4%, the slippage rate jumped to 7% and restructured assets were up qoq. Restructured assets are likely to rise further in quarters ahead, though at a lesser pace. Overall, risks to asset quality remain and are likely to reverse only with an improvement in the economic environment. However higher recoveries in FY14 and FY15 could lead to an improvement in asset quality. Assuming recoveries of around 50% from slippages during FY10-13E, the upside to the banks adjusted networth in FY14 would be around 21%. NIM likely to remain stable at current levels During Q2FY13, the banks NIM improved by 10 bps sequentially due to lower interest reversals as compared to Q1FY13 and a 20 bps qoq improvement in the yield on advances. For FY13 we expect the NIM to stand at 2.4% and remain stable at that level in FY14. High modified duration and large AFS book likely to lead to treasury gains Bank of India has one of the largest AFS books as compared to peers, with around 31% of its investment book in the AFS category. Additionally the modified duration of the book at 4.3 is relatively high. Thus a 100 bps reduction in yields could lead to treasury gains of around `9.3 bn. This would lead to a 27.9% impact of FY14E PAT and 5.2% on FY14E networth. Improving productivity to keep cost to income ratio in check going ahead During Q2FY13, the productivity of the bank improved, with the core cost-income ratio coming off by 470bps yoy to 41.4 % on account of negligible new employee recruitment which kept employee costs in check. We expect the cost to income ratio of the bank to come off to 41% in FY14 from ~43% in FY13. Initiate coverage with a HOLD rating and a target price of `311: At the CMP of `294, the bank trades at 1.1x its FY13E ABV and 0.9x its FY14E ABV. At these levels the bank trades below its average one year forward P/ABV multiple. However as asset quality concerns are likely to persist in the future putting pressure on return ratios, upside in the near term is likely to be limited. We initiate coverage on BOI with a Hold rating and a target price of `311 (1x its FY14E ABV).

Canara Bank
High recovery in previous years leaves little scope for asset quality surprise

Banking Sector Outlook - Neutral


Initiating Coverage
Canara Bank CAGR (FY12-14E)

29% 28% 27% 26% 25% 24% 23% 22%

Canara Bank is a public sector commercial bank with its headquarter in Bangalore. Canara Bank was incorporated on July 1, 1906 and nationalized in 1969 making it one of the oldest public sector banks in the country. As at the end of Sep-12, the bank has a network of 3655 branches and 3184 ATMs. Recoveries likely to be limited due to higher recoveries in previous years As recoveries and up-gradations for Canara Bank have been relatively high during FY10-12, it can be inferred that a large portion of slippages seen during FY09-11 have already been recovered. Hence upside to profitability on account of recoveries is likely to be limited going ahead. Assuming recoveries at 60% for additions during FY10-13E, the upside to adjusted networth in FY14E is likely to be around 5%. Restructured book excluding Air India and SEBs at 3.7% Total restructured book outstanding for Canara Bank as on Q2FY13 stands at 6.9% lower as compared to its peers. Adjusting for restructured loans to SEBs and Air india which are unlikely to slip into NPA category, the restructured book stands at 3.7%. Highest SLR and treasury yields as compared to peers Canara Bank has one of the highest SLR book amongst public banks. Its SLR at 34% is significantly higher than mandatory requirement. Once the economic situation improves, the bank can reduce SLR holdings and improve its NIM and return ratios. Additionally, the banks investment yield at 8.1% is the highest amongst its peer groups suggesting that the bank could make strong treasury gains once yields begin to come off. NIM can improve with an improvement in the CD ratio The bank has one of the lowest CD ratios compared to its peers. Its CD ratio stood at 64% as at the end of Q2FY13. The lower CD ratio is due to the bank going slow on credit growth due to its focus on maintaining asset quality. The bank has scope to increase its CD ratio and improve its NIM going ahead. Adequately Capitalized The bank is adequately capitalized with a CAR of 13.1% and tier 1 capital of 10.1%. Initiate coverage with a HOLD rating and a target price of `549: At the CMP of `485, the bank trades at 1.2x its FY13E ABV and 1.1x its FY14E ABV. At these levels the bank trades below its long term average one year forward P/ABV multiple. However as asset quality concerns are likely to weigh down valuations in the near term, we initiate coverage on Canara Bank with a Hold rating and a target price of `549 (1.2x its FY14E ABV).

Slippages remain under check The bank has managed to keep its slippage rate under check. During Q2FY13, the banks slippage rate stood at 1.8% in Q2FY13 down from 2.9% in Q1FY13. Despite controlled slippages the banks GNPAs increased by 15.4% qoq due to lower recoveries and up-gradations during the quarter. Going ahead we expect recoveries and up gradations to improve which would lead to an improvement in the asset quality. Rapid branch expansion to aid CASA growth The bank has been rapidly growing its branch network and it now stands at 1600 branches as compared to 981 branches in FY08. The bank added 100 branches in H1FY13 and is looking at adding 200 new branches in H2FY13. The rapid branch expansion is likely to aid CASA growth going ahead. Amongst the most cost efficient public sector banks Corporation bank is one of the most cost efficient public sector banks in the country. The bank has a cost to income ratio of around 40%, significantly lower as compared to the average for public sector banks which stood at around 45% in Q2FY13. The lower cost to income ratio of the bank is owing to its high proportion of large corporate advances coupled with large number of branches (~52%) being located in rural and semi urban areas. NIM to improve in FY14 The reported NIM of Corporation bank has come off to 2.2% in Q2FY13 from 2.4% in Q2FY12 due to a fall in the CASA ratio and higher term deposit rates. Going ahead, we expect the cost of funds to come off on account of a reduction in deposit rates as well as cost of borrowings. As a result we expect the calculated NIM to improve to 2% in FY14 from 1.9% in FY13. Initiate coverage with a Buy rating and a target price of `545: At the CMP of `429, the bank trades at 0.8x its FY13E ABV and 0.7x its FY14E ABV. At current levels we believe that asset quality concerns have been priced in. As a result, we initiate coverage on Corporation Bank with a Buy rating and a target price of `545 (0.9x its FY14E ABV).

IDBI was founded in 1964 as a development financial institution (DFI) by the RBI with the aim of financing industrial development in India. Within a decade, IDBI was a flourishing DFI, financing not only large industrial projects but also working capital loans of companies. In 1976, IDBI was de-linked from the RBI and declared an autonomous institution. In 2004, IDBI converted itself into a commercial bank. As a DFI, IDBI played an important role in creating the infrastructural base of the country and has helped finance some of the key organization that have shaped the countrys financial architecture. Asset quality likely to remain under pressure Slippages for Q2FY13 stood at `6.2 bn (slippage rate of 1.5%) which was lower as compared to the previous quarter. However restructuring activity maintained pace with the bank restructuring loans worth `15 bn during the quarter. The outstanding restructured book increased by 15% qoq to `125.3 bn or 7.5% of advances. We believe that the banks asset quality is likely to remain under pressure as it accelerates lending to the agri and SME segment in order to meet priority sector lending targets. NIM likely to improve and stand at 2% in FY15 As the bank expands its branch network and focuses on garnering CASA deposits and reducing bulk deposits we expect the NIM to improve to 1.9% in FY13 and reach 2% in FY15. Strong investment book IDBI bank has a strong investment book with a book value of `832 bn of which `33.8 bn consists of equity shares. The bank has significant stake in certain strategic investments such as CARE, SIDBI, NSE, ARCIL etc. These investments act as a cushion against decline in valuations and going forward we could see some value unlocking from these investments through listing or stake sale. High operational efficiencies IDBI bank has been a leader in adopting progressive HR customs such as performance linked pay and e-learning initiatives. Additionally, unlike other public sector banks whose average age of employees is ~50 years, the average age of IDBI bank employees is only around ~31 years which adds to its productivity. As a result, the banks efficiency ratios business per employee, business per branch, cost to income are significantly higher as compared to other public sector banks. Maintain HOLD with a target price of `113: At the CMP of `110, the bank trades at 1x its FY13E ABV and 0.9x its FY14E ABV. At these levels the bank trades largely in line with its long term average one year forward P/ABV multiple of 1.0x. As a result we maintain our Hold recommendation on the stock with a target price of `113 (0.9x FY14E ABV).

Indian Bank, established on 15th August 1907, is a south based mid-sized public sector bank with a global branch network of 2002 branches and 1295 ATMs. The banks focus on financial inclusion is reflected through its loan book 43% of which is focused on the agricultural, retail and MSME segments. Strong NIMs coupled with comfortable asset quality led to superior ROAs Indian Banks loan book is skewed towards high yielding segments such as SME, retail and agriculture, which form about 43% of the banks advances. As a result, despite having a moderate CASA ratio of 29%, the banks NIMs are relatively high at ~3.1% for Q2FY13. This coupled with comfortable asset quality has led to superior ROAs (1.3% for Q2FY13) which are amongst the highest in the banks peer group. Restructured book high however a large part of it is seasoned While the restructured book for Indian bank appears high at 10.9% of the loan book, the restructured book outstanding excluding SEB and Air India exposure stands at 7.6%. Moreover a large portion of this book consists of seasoned textile exposure. Greater concentration in semi urban and rural areas has led to cost efficiencies As a result of the banks thrust on financial inclusion and its focus on advances to MSME and agricultural segments, around 55% of its branches are located in semiurban and rural areas. Operating expenses for branches located in semi-urban and rural areas are lower than those for urban and metro branches. Thus the bank enjoys one of the lowest cost to income ratios amongst its peer group. The cost to income ratio for the bank stood at 39% in FY12 lower as compared to peers. Adequately capitalized The bank appears adequately capitalized with a CAR of 13% and a tier 1 CAR of 11.8%. The bank has headroom to raise tier II capital worth `76 bn. Hence the bank is in no urgent need of raising new equity capital, although it has government permission to dilute 10% government holding to raise 0.6 bn. Maintain Buy with a target price of `232: At the CMP of `189, the bank trades at 0.9x its FY13E ABV and 0.7x its FY14E ABV. At these levels the bank below its long term average one year forward P/ABV multiple. We maintain our Buy rating on the stock with a target price of `232 (based on 0.9x FY14E ABV).

Oriental Bank of Commerce (OBC) is a mid sized public sector bank with 1850 branches, 1304 ATMs and an asset size of `1870 bn. Branches are primarily located in the northern region. The bank has been plagued by asset quality issues in the past post its merger with Global Trust Bank, however management has worked towards stabilizing asset quality and asset quality appears relatively stable. We initiate coverage on OBC with a Hold recommendation and target price of `359 (0.9x FY14E ABV). Asset quality likely to improve on the back of stronger recoveries OBC reported an improvement in slippages in H1FY13 as compared to FY12. The slippage rate for H1FY13 stood at 2.4% as compared to 4.1% for FY12. Going ahead we expect asset quality for OBC to improve on the back of stronger recoveries and up-gradations. Based on our recovery analysis, assuming recoveries of 50% from additions in FY10-13E, the upside to OBCs networth is 9.4% (11% of adjusted networth) and assuming recoveries at 60%, the upside increases to 16.3% of FY14E networth and 19% of FY14E adjusted networth. Restructured book excluding Air India and SEBs at 4.9% of loan book While the restructured book for OBC appears high at 9.7% of the loan book, a large part of it consists of loans to Air India and SEBs. Loans to Air India and SEBs are unlikely to slip into non performing asset category. Additionally management has stated that with the bond issuance of Air India, OBC expects to receive ~ `5 bn which could lead to some provision writebacks. Excluding Air India and SEB exposure, the banks restructured book stands limited at 4.9%. High modified duration of AFS book to lead to higher treasury gains The modified duration of OBCs AFS book stands high at 4.1, as a result a 1% reduction in yield could lead to MTM writebacks of `2.6 bn which would have an impact of ~2.2% on the banks FY14E networth and 14.4% on its FY14E PAT. NIM improvement through increasing core deposits OBC reported a NIM of 2.8% in Q2FY13, stable sequentially. Despite several cuts in the banks base rate, management expects to maintain its full year NIM at ~2.9% due to its focus on reducing bulk deposits. The bulk deposits of the bank came off to 22.1% from 27.6% as on Mar-12. Initiate coverage with a HOLD rating and a target price of `371: At the CMP of `351, the bank trades at 0.9x its FY13E ABV and 0.9x its FY14E ABV. At these levels the bank trades in line with its long term average one year forward P/ABV multiple of 0.9x. As a result we initiate coverage on OBC with a Hold recommendation and target price of `371 (0.9x FY14E ABV).

Punjab National Bank


Asset quality concerns priced in, Initiate with Outperform Banking Sector Outlook - Neutral
Initiating Coverage
PNB is the second largest PSB in India by asset size. As on Q2FY13, the bank has a total asset size of `4720 bn and a loan book of `2948 bn. PNBs loan book is primarily focused on corporate loans followed by SME and retail loans. PNBs domestic branch network stood at 5748 at the end of Sep-12, out of which, 39% of branches are located in rural India. Higher recoveries to offset stress in incremental slippages In Q2FY13, PNB reported a significant deterioration in asset quality with gross slippages accelerating to 6.5%. Slippages were broad based across segments such as Industry, Agri, SME and retail. Asset quality is likely to remain under pressure for the bank in the near term as slippages from the banks agri and SME portfolio are likely to remain high. However higher recoveries in subsequent quarters could lead to an improvement in asset quality going ahead. Assuming recoveries of 50%, the upside to networth for PNB would be 22% of FY14E networth and 31% of FY14E adjusted Networth. Restructured book excluding Air India and SEBs at 6.3% Outstanding restructured book for PNB as on Q2FY13 stands at 9.4%. However, adjusting for restructured loans to SEBs and Air India which are unlikely to slip into NPA, the restructured book stands at 6.3% which also includes seasoned restructered book of FY09-11. The restructured book of the bank is unlikely to increase substantially from current levels as majority of SEB restructuring has already been completed. High treasury yields could lead to higher treasury profits going ahead Around 26% of PNBs investment book is in the AFS category. Additionally the modified duration of the banks AFS book is high at 3.7. Hence a 100 bps decline in yields would lead to a 13.5% increase in the banks FY14E PAT. Moreover the banks yield on investments at 7.9% is one of the highest amongst peer banks indicating towards higher treasury gains once interest rates start coming off. NIM likely to come off to 3.2% in FY13E The reported NIM of the bank came off by 10 bps qoq to 3.5% in Q2FY13. The deterioration in the NIM was primarily due to interest reversals on slippages. For FY13E we expect the calculated NIM to stand at 3.2% down 15 bps yoy. In FY14 and FY15 we expect the NIM to remain stable at ~3.2%. Initiate coverage with an Outperform rating and a target price of `1001: At the CMP of `822, the bank trades at 1.3x its FY13E ABV and 1.1x its FY14E ABV. PNB had corrected significantly over past few months due to its weak quarterly performance. We believe that asset quality concerns are largely factored into its price. We initiate coverage on PNB with an Outperform rating and a target price of `1001 (1.3x its FY14E ABV) considering strong liability franchise, well capitalisation and good operating efficiency.

Initiating Coverage
SBI CAGR (FY12-14E)

SBI is Indias largest bank with a distribution network of 14230 branches, 22767 ATMs and an asset size of `14401 bn. Branches are loacted through out the country with a focus on rural and semi urban areas. Over 66% of the banks branches are loacted in rural and semi urban areas. Due to its vast distribution network, it has a large CASA base and is the market leader in retail advances with a market share of over 25% in home and education loans. NIM to remain stable SBI has excess liquidity of around `70 bn which it can deploy to increase its credit deposit ratio. Additionally its stable CASA ratio coupled with the re-pricing of bulk deposits at lower rates would keep NIMs stable at current levels. We have factored in a NIM of 3.2% for FY13. Asset quality pressure to come off going ahead SBI has reported higher slippages in H1FY13 with annualized slippages at 5.0% in Q1FY13 and 3.0% in Q2FY13. Going ahead we expect slippages to come off in H2FY13 and FY14 on the back of measures taken by the management such as cautious credit growth on risky segments, use of CIBIL scores for retail loans and focus on secured loans. We have factored a slippage rate of 4% in FY13 and 2.8% in FY14. Additionally, recoveries / upgradation from slippages are likely to to aid asset quality improvement. Restructured book low as compared to peers The restructured book for SBI is lower than several of its peers and has largely been restricted to CDR cases. Restructured book outstanding stood at 4.4% of advances as on Q2FY13. The bank has limited exposure to SEBs and Air India, as a result of which its restructured book excluding AI and SEBs stands almost at the same level at ~4.2% of advances. Capital manangement improved; Infusion likely in the near future Over last 4-5 quarters, capital management for the bank has improved resulting in stable RWA and improvement in Tier 1. SBI has a tier 1 ratio of 8.9% and a total CAR of 12.6%. The government has undertaken to keep SBI well capitalized and is likely to infuse capital whenever required. For FY13, management expects some capital infusion of ~`40 bn. Initiate coverage with an Outperform rating and a target price of `2590: At the CMP of `2300, the bank trades at 1.6x its FY13E cons. ABV and 1.3x its FY14E cons. ABV. At these levels, we believe that asset quality concerns are largely priced in. We initiate coverage with an Outperform rating and a target price of `2590 (1.5x its FY14E cons. ABV).

Initiating Coverage
UBI CAGR (FY12-14E)

Union Bank is the sixth-largest government bank, with a large balance sheet size and diversified distribution network. It has around 3200 branches and 4100 ATMs spread across the country. Its business is distributed across the country with a focus on the Western region. Union Bank listed in 2002. Positive surprise on asset quality could continue As a contrast to other PSU banks, UBI reported an improvement in its asset quality during Q2FY13 with GNPA improving by 10bps QoQ to 3.7%. The improvement in GNPAs was on account of lower slippages (1.8% vs 3.6% in Q1FY13) as well as higher recoveries. However recoveries were chunky in nature and sustainability of the same remains questionable. We expect asset quality for UBI to remain volatile going ahead and have factored a slippage rate of 2.5% for FY13. NIM likely to remain stable at 3% During Q2FY13, UBIs reported NIM was largely stable at 3.0% qoq as the 18bps QoQ contraction in yields on assets was offset by a decrease in the cost of funds. The H1FY13 NIM stood at 3.0% largely in line with that of FY12. Going ahead we expect the NIM to remain stable at 3% for FY13 and FY14. Loan growth to moderate to 15% in FY13 UBI has grown its loan book at a CAGR of 24% from FY08-12. However due to asset quality concerns, several banks are going slow on lending especially to the large corporate segment. As a result, we expect UBIs loan book growth to come off to 15% in FY13 from 18% in FY12. Higher treasury gains could lead to an improvement in other income growth Other income for the bank has remained muted in H1FY13 owing to lower treasury and fee based income. As a result we have factored in an 8% yoy decline in other income for FY13. However we expect other income to register a robust increase of 19% yoy in FY14 on the back of higher treasury income. For UBI, a 100 bps decline in yields would lead to 8% impact on the banks FY14E PAT. Initiate coverage with a REDUCE rating and a target price of `231: At the CMP of `253, the bank trades at 1.4x its FY13E ABV and 1.2x its FY14E ABV. The bank has recently run up owing to its strong quarterly performance and now trades at a premium to its peers. However we believe that asset quality concerns remain for the bank which could lead to downgrades going ahead. We initiate coverage on UBI with a Reduce rating and a target price of `231 (1.1x its FY14E ABV).

Sunidhis Rating Rationale


The price target for a large cap stock represents the value the analyst expects the stock to reach over next 12 months. For a stock to be classified as Outperform, the expected return must exceed the local risk free return by at least 5% over the next 12 months. For a stock to be classified as Underperform, the stock return must be below the local risk free return by at least 5% over the next 12 months. Stocks between these bands are classified as Neutral. (For Mid & Small cap stocks from 12 months perspective) BUY ACCUMULATE HOLD REDUCE SELL Absolute Return >20% Absolute Return Between 10-20% Absolute Return Between 0-10% Absolute Return 0 To Negative 10% Absolute Return > Negative 10%

Apart from Absolute returns our rating for a stock would also include subjective factors like macro environment, outlook of the industry in which the company is operating, growth expectations from the company vis a vis its peers, scope for P/E re-rating/de-rating for the broader market and the company in specific.
