Valuation and view –
Strong growth momentum continued in Q4 as well after bumper festive season. All the business segments have seen improvement in profitability in 4Q. Lockdown/restrictions across various part of the country on back of second wave could challenge growth momentum in the near term; but we expect it to recover as soon as restrictions are eased as underlying demand continues to remain strong.
Voltas being a strong brand and with its distribution presence and increase in product offering on the commercial refrigeration side should outperform the industry. This along with improved execution and better order book mix will drive improved performance for project business. Its Volt‐Bek JV has stared gaining prominence in the market and localized product is expected to increase efficiency and bring down losses. We estimate FY21‐23E Revenue/EBITDA/PAT CAGR of 17%/22%/31% and continue with our ADD rating with SoTP based TP of Rs1,089.
