Our view – One awaits expected improvement in equity business
Management reiterated that it expects improved inflows into equity schemes on the back of sharp improvement in performance in the last 6-9 months: There was a minor dip in equity market share on sequential basis. The other issue with equity business has been downward pressure on yield on account of new money coming at lower yield.
Management explained that NAM has been able to save on cost on the back of a variety of steps: Renegotiation of contracts, moving to smaller office premises, consolidating IT under IBM and focusing on online channel have all contributed to cost savings.
We maintain ‘BUY’ rating on NAM with a revised price target of Rs 435: We value NAM at 28x FY23 P/E for an FY21-24E EPS CAGR of 20%.
