    Current Previous Alstom T&D is a leading player in power transmission products, projects andservices in India. Company was part of Areva T&D group. In the year 2009, Alstom

    and Schneider acquired global transmission and distribution business of Areva

    T&D. In Nov-2011, company transferred its distribution business (loss making/

    low margin business) to Schneider and transmission business was retained with

    the company. The name of the company was changed from Areva T&D to its

    present name Alstom T&D in Jan-2012. Now Company is part of Alstom Group

    (Headquartered in France), which is one of the global leaders in power generation,

    power transmission and rail infrastructure.

    Investment Rationale

    Latent demand in the sector gives long term visibility: India has historically

    underinvested in power transmission sector. With large increase in power generation

    capacity, transmission capacity is set to follow. Rise in transmission capital

    expenditure plan gives better long term visibility for the companies serving the

    sector.

    Abating competition, early mover advantage, leadership position and new areas

    of opportunity: competition level in PGCIL tendering has started abating in past

    one year. Company has localized most of the products and technology needed for

    the sector ahead of its peers. Company has been biggest receiver of PGCIL orders

    and also enjoys leadership position in emerging opportunities like automation.

    Combination of all this factors is likely to boost revenue growth and expansion in

    profit margin.

    Reform in power sector likely to kick start capital expenditure from other players

    in power sector: Several steps were being taken in the past couple of quarters by

    government to revive the momentum in power sector. We believe that the steps

    taken to repair dilapidated sector should start bearing fruits in next couple of

    quarters and sector should witness a rise in much needed capital expenditure from

    SEBs, power generating companies and Industry/Infrastructure companies.

    Limited downside and large upside potential: We've built three scenarios to gaze

    the potential financial performance of the company. In base case PAT is likely to be

    3.7x in FY16E vs FY13A. In optimistic case PAT is likely to be 4.6x in FY16E vs FY13A

    and even in pessimistic scenario PAT is likely to be ~40% higher than FY14E levels,

    which effectively means that there is limited downside and large upside potential

    Valuation and Recommendation

    At CMP of Rs. 249, stock is trading at FY15E and FY16E PE multiple of 49.8x and

    25.9x. Given latent demand in the power T&D sector, leadership position of thecompany, likely capex cycle revival and likely improvement in margins for the

    company, We initiate coverage of the stock with BUY recommendation and target

    price of Rs.289 (30x FY16E EPS).

    India much

    below world

    average

    Investment rationale

    A) Latent demand in the sectorIndia has perennially remained a power deficit country. Huge potential exist for

    power generation and Transmission & Distribution sector in the country as countrys

    per capita electricity consumption at 917 kwh is much below the world average of2933 kwh.

    Source: IEA;CEA; IndiaNivesh Research

    To tackle the menace of power deficit and maintain countrys high economic growth,

    Indian government has undertaken a massive power generation and transmission

    capacity addition plans in the country. India has added ~50,000 mw in 11thplan(2007-

    12) and plans to add ~88,000 and ~93,000 mw in 12 th(2012-17)and 13th(2017-22)

    plan respectively. Country has installed capacity of 232,000 mw as of 31stjan 2014.

    Planwise Capacity addition (MW)

    Source:CEA; MoP; IndiaNivesh Research

    Note: Excluding Renewable Capacity additions

    Massive capacity addition in generation secor will be of little use without robust

    transmission and distribution network in the country. India has historiallly

    underinvested in its T&D sector vs generation sector. To make the transmission

    network more robust and supplement the addition of generation capacity, aboutRs 1.4 tn were spent in 11thplan. 12thand 13thplans are set to observe greater

    investment of Rs 1.8 tn and Rs 2 tn respectively.

    Power Grid corporation of india (PGCIL),countrys central transmission utility, is single

    biggest customer for T&D companies.PGCIL has plans to spend about Rs 1.1 tn in

    12thplan. Out of the total capital expenditure of PGCIL the addresable orders for

    Alstom T&D (relating to substation,electrical equipments and systems) are likely to

    be about 30-35% (~Rs 350 bn) of total. A well planned year wise capital expenditure

    target set by PGCIL gives good visibility for the T&D companies.

    B) Abating competition, early mover advantage,

    leadership position among peers, New areas ofopportunity

    i) Reducing Competition:

    At the beginning of 12 th plan, many domestic contractors and foreign

    companies(mainly Chinese and Koreans) were very aggressive in bidding process,

    this led to drop in margins for all the companies in the sector. However, Local

    manufcaturing facility requirement set by PGCIL for many equipments, tough

    contractual obligations, cash flow problems on the part of many contractors has

    caused many players to exit or become less aggressive in the PGCIL tendering. After

    this connsolidation in the sector, we expect margins for the remaining players likely

    to improve from hereon.

    ii) Early Mover Advantage:

    Alstom T&D started its localisation programme early in 2007 and is regularly

    absorbing technology from its parent to effectively compete in domestic market.ABB and Siemens, the other two close competitor in the race started late and are

    yet to localise all the products and technologies related to transmission.

    This early mover advantage is likely to help company gain larger share of products

    and projects in offing.

    iii) Leading Position amongst peers:

    Due to its greater localisation and competitive strenght,Alstom T&D has emerged

    as a leading order rceiver in PGCIL tendering for electrical equipments,projects and

    services for 12thplan in FY12-14 period. Since other non-serious competitor has

    started become less agrresive in bidding process, this will further help company to

    strenghen its leadership position.

    iv) New areas of opportunity: Automation,GIS

    Aim of PGCIL is to make Indian grid more smarter and after failure of grid in july-

    2012 in northen and eastern part of india, PGCIL has become more proactive to

    tackle the issue. PGCIL ordering is likely to see change for next couple of years

    leading to more orders for automation systems and GIS apart from regular orders

    of AIS substations,reactors and transformers.

    presence of the

    But Chinese players dominate the GIS where Alstom T&D is the onlyindian company having marginal presence

    Currently GIS orders are completely dominated by chinese players due to aggressive

    bidding and hardly any domestic firm is able to penetrate their castle. However, as

    weve seen in last one year for other orders, any reduction in aggression from the

    Chinese companies will be beneficial for the companies who are ready with

    technology. As of now only Alstom T&D has localised GIS technology upto 400 kvand higher kv technolgy support is available from parent. Other companies like

    Siemens, ABB, BHEL and Crompton Greaves have localised facility only upto 220 kv.

    Siemens and ABB have support available from parent for higher kv technology but

    that puts them at cost disadvantage vs player who has localised facility.

    C) Reform in power sector likely to kick start capitalexpenditure from other players in power sector

    Power sector has remained under pressure due to slew of issues like fuel (coal and

    gas) availability, fuel cost escalation due to import of coal and gas, poor financial

    health of SEBs, land and environmental issues etc. Effect of all this factors on the

    order book and eventually financials of the power capital goods companies has

    been harsh.

    Government and regulatory agencies have taken many steps to resolve the stumbling

    issues and revive the animal spirit of the sector. Major steps taken by government

    and regulatory agencies like financial restructuring of many SEBs to improve their

    financial health, cost pass through allowed for some power plants for increased

    fuel cost, regular electricity tariff hikes allowed by electricity regulatory commissionto take care of escalating cost for discoms, establishing coal sector regulator to sort

    out grievances of parties involved etc. are likely to revive the momentum in the

    sector in next couple of quarters and sector can witness revival in capital expenditure

    from other players(apart from PGCIL) like power utilities/generators, SEBs and

    industry/infrastructure companies, which will provide growth impetus for the T&D

    Capital goods companies.

    Reforms in power sector likely to bear fruits

    in coming quarters

    GIS could be the next growth driver

    Financials

    Alstom T&Ds order intake and financial Performance:Since the sector has been riddled with many issues in the past, capex in power

    sector as a whole & transmission in particular took a sharp decline in last few years.

    In order to estimate the future prospects of the order flow,we have built in threescenarios to gaze what kind of number may be expected.

    Base Case Scenario

    Assumptions:

    Company gets orders from two sources PGCIL and other segments (industry,

    SEBs etc). We expect PGCIL ordering to take place as planned and given likely

    improvement in power sector scenario, quarterly order intake rate (for the

    company) from other segments is expected to gradually pick up to normal

    (but less than highest rate seen in past) rate of 7-8 bn per quarter for the

    company from current FY14 rate of ~6.6 bn.

    Execution rate for the company had taken beating in past two years due to

    low level of activity in the power sector, Company has improved its execution

    pace in past couple of quarters. We expect company to imrove its execution

    rate gradually from current ~60% to 70% in next 2 years. (However we dont

    expect company to reach its peak execution rate of ~80% in next 2 years).

    We expect Company to retire its current debt of ~5 bn in next 2 years.

    Topline to grow ~11% CAGR between FY13-16EPace of project excecution had taken a hit in last 1-2 years due to low level of activity

    in power sector, however; Company has improved its execution pace in past couple

    of quarters and We expect companys topline to grow by ~11% CAGR between

    FY13-FY16E on back of better exceution pace and likely increase in order intake.

    Earnings to be 3.7x in FY16E compare to FY13 level on backof ~360 bps margin expansion:Although we expect topline to grow by ~11% CAGR between FY13-16E; we expect

    the bottomline to be 3.7x in FY16E from its FY13 level on back of improvement in

    margin by ~360 bps between FY13 and FY16E. Improvement in margin for the

    company is expected due to reduction in competition level in PGCIL tendering, likely

    increase in high technology products like automation, GIS etc. which are better

    margin orders, rise in Capital expenditure from other sectors and better pace of

    order execution.

    Alternative scenario

    Optimistic Scenario

    Assumptions:

    1. In case of faster than expected (base case) revival in economicrecovery, order intake from other segments are likely to rise faster(near to its highest quartely rate seen in 2009-10) than in base caseand company can witness additional source of order intake fromrenewables and windfall order gain of HVDC order.

    2. Execution pace to pick up faster than base case3. Company to retire its debt of ~5 bn in next two years

    In optimistic scenario, we expect order intake to rise 27% and 16% inFY15E and FY16E respectively. Stocks Adj EPS is likely to be 4.6x in FY16Efrom its FY13 level. The stock may rise to Rs 367. (conservative multipleof 25x FY16E Adj EPS) in optimistic case.

    We expect very low probability of this scenario playing out.Source: IndiaNivesh Research

    Source: IndiaNivesh Research

    Pessimistic Scenario:

    Assumptions:

    1. In case of prolonged economic slump , the likely order intake from

    other segments like industry/infrastructure and discoms/SEBs willlikely ramain muted

    2. Excecution pace of the company should also suffer due to depressedenvironment and likely to take longer (than Base case) to return tonormal rate.

    3. Company not able to retire its debt of Rs ~5 bn in next 2 years.

    In Pessimistic Scenario,we expect the order book of the company to fallto Rs ~57 bn from current level of about ~64.3 bn. Even in this case AdjEPS is likely to be ~40% higher than FY14E levels. However, we expectthat current euphoria in the stock may cool down for time being andstock may take a fall to Rs 143-167 level. (Valuing at 30x and 35x FY16EAdj EPS). Since 13thfive year plan ordering is likely to begin in next 2 yearstime, we dont expect market to give very low multiple to value the stockin pessimistic scenario.

    We expect close to nil probability of this scenario playing out.

    OutlookPower transmission grid in india is moving from low and medium voltage(220 kv

    and below) to high (400 kv) and extra high voltage (765 kv and above). In addition

    to that, the transmission grid is also becoming technologically more advance with

    introduction of automation,HVDC and GIS technologies. Companys that aretechnologically advanced and have localised their technologies and facilities are

    likely to snatch greater part of available orders pie.

    Alstom T&D has localised large number of products and technologies needed in

    power transmission ahead of its peers, competition intensity has started abating in

    PGCIL tendering, company has leadership position in automation and GIS (among

    indian firm) offerings, due to combination of all these factors, we sense that Alstom

    T&D is well placed to exploit the opportunity that indian transmission sector has to

    offer

    We expect companys net revenue to grow by ~11% CAGR in FY13-16E and PAT

    Margins to improve by ~360 bps in FY13-16E and earning to become 3.7x in FY16E

    from FY13 level.

    Valuation

    Valuation and RecommendationDue to cyclical nature of the business we observe wide swing in the PE ratio for the

    company, however average PE multiple for the company has been about 30. At

    CMP of Rs. 249, stock is trading at FY15E and FY16E PE multiple of 49.8x and 25.9x.

    Given latent demand in the power T&D sector, leadership position of the company,

    likely capex cycle revival and likely improvement in margins for the company, We

    initiate coverage of the stock with BUY recommendation and target price of Rs.289

    (30x FY16E Adj.EPS Rs.9.63).

    Risk Factors1) Company is heavily dependent on single customer PGCIL (accouting for ~40%

    of order intake). Any change in capex plan by PGCIL or deterioation in its

    financial condition will be big negative for the company

    2) Copper and aluminum are the major raw materials for the

    company(accounting for ~50% of raw material) and as per historical analysis,

    for every 1% rise in these metal prices; gross margin for the company drops

    by about 20-30 bps. Sudden surge in prices of these metals will be negative

    for the margins of the company.
