Our view:
The Company’s performance has been robust during the quarter in terms of volumes from the mining segment. With the second wave of COVID, there are near term challenges as marketing team is unable to travel and volumes may get impacted during H1 FY22. The margins also may be under little pressure with the increase in costs as Company may not be able to pass on entire cost increase to customers. We have marginally cut our FY22e/FY23e estimates to factor in the impact of COVID related impact on volumes and higher input costs. We retain our BUY rating on the stock for target price of Rs2288/share (30x FY23E EPS).
