Outlook & Valuation
FY22 revenue are estimated to be impacted adversely with significant loss in Q1 that is peak season for RAC business on account of ongoing lockdowns due to second wave of COVID-19. Over the long term, however, recent ban on import of RACs as well as GOI's push for Atmanirbhar Bharat should act as a big enabler for RAC industry as electronics imports constitute 3rd largest segment in India. Even recent shift to China+1 strategy taking place from domestic OEMs to reduce lead time to source RACs should be a big boost for players like Amber. We fine tune estimates in the light of the company having lost peak quarter & headwinds in terms of steep increase in input costs on profitability. We estimate revenue & PAT CAGR of 46% & 83% respectively during FY21-23 &maintain HOLD with a revised price target of INR 2890 (35x23E EPS).
Key Risks:
* Continued Steep increase in input costs.
* Lockdown impacted by second wave of COVID-19 getting prolonged.
