Motilal Oswal view on Cyient:

“We continue to see strong rebound in ER&D spending led by increased outsourcing and larger deal sizes. The management’s strategy to leverage these spends, led by a refreshed GTM strategy and increased focus on large deal wins should bode well for growth performance.

“We expect the company to deliver 13% dollar revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over FY22-24.

“Although near-term growth may be soft, a better margin will compensate for the growth. We expect 11% profit after tax CAGR over FY22-24.

“We maintain our buy rating on attractive valuations. Our target multiple of 17x FY24 EPS implies a target price of Rs 1,000 per share, implying an upside of 20%.”

Prabhudas Lilladher view on Nestle India

We expect near term margin pressure to sustain given inflation in Coffee, Palm oil, Milk and SMP. We factor in EBIDTA margin decline of 140bps in CY22 (40bps over CY21-23) as scale efficiencies, mix and pricing actions won’t be able to neutralize 10-year high inflation.  

We estimate 12.4% PAT CAGR over CY21-23. 

We expect back ended returns given near term margin pressures and rich valuations of 62.3x CY23 EPS. We maintain Accumulate with a target price of Rs 19,426 on DCF basis (Rs 19,626 earlier).

Nestle India was quoting at Rs 17,953.75, down Rs 252.05, or 1.38 percent on the BSE.

V K Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Financial Services:

This excessively volatile market without any clear direction is being influenced on a daily basis by two factors- one, external and two, internal. The external factor is the erratic movement in the mother market US where the S&P 500 and Nasdaq go up by around 2% one day and go down by around 2% the next day.

The internal factor influencing the market is the see-saw tussle between FIIs and DIIs. Both these external and internal factors are erratic now and that’s why the market is volatile without any direction.

Yesterday’s comment by the Fed chief that a 50 bp rate hike is possible in May and that control of inflation has become absolutely essential has pushed the 10-year bond yield above 2.9% and consequently impacted equity markets. But this impact, too, is likely to be temporary since the market has already discounted this known hawkishness of the Fed.

What investors should do in this time of high uncertainty is to buy high quality stocks on steep market corrections and wait with patience.
