MSIL reported revenues of |13,425 crore vs. our estimate of |13,400 crore (up ~18.1% YoY) led by 13.8% YoY increase in volumes • EBITDA grew by 64.8% YoY to |2,189 crore, above our estimates of | 2071 crore. The reported EBITDA margins came in at 16.3% as against 11.7% YoY and 15.9% QoQ. However post normalizing for one-off related to asset impairment (which is included in other expenses) margins would have come at 16.9%. • The company reported a PAT of | 1,193 crore crore (vs. expectation of | 1,374 crore), The PAT came below our estimates on account of lower other income (down 42% YoY/46% QoQ) & higher effective tax rate Structural factors favour recovery for PV industry; MSIL to benefit Domestic sales of passenger vehicle grew by 3.7% in FY15 led by slight improvement in consumer sentiment with expectation of faster economic growth. The industry has shown recovery in FY16E, with the industry volumes growing by 6.2% in Q1FY16, & MSIL outpacing that growth, growing by 13.8%. We believe there are lot of favourable demand & supply side variables that will lead to faster volume growth in FY16. While the demand side variables include revival in economic growth, low inflation, steady growth in disposable income, declining cost of ownership (driven by lower fuel cost/ interest rates), the supply side variables are new model launches & capacity expansions. We believe MSIL’s largely petrol denominated small car portfolio is likely to benefit the most as most small car buyers are first time buyers & sensitive to change in cost of ownership. MSIL’s small car segment sales will also gain from the 7th Pay commission that is expected in late FY16. Strong product pipeline & reach to help maintain dominance MSIL’s strength lies in withstanding slowdown & competition through its wide distribution network. Maruti gained ~300 bps market share in FY14 & another ~200 bps in FY15. The gain in market share In FY14 is partly driven by increasing rural penetration, gain in market share in FY15 is driven by successful new products like Celerio, Ertiga & Ciaz. Maruti has entered a strong product cycle & is looking to plug the gaps in its product portfolio. While MSIL has already addressed the upper segment sedan with its product Ciaz. Its recent launch S-cross & upcoming compact SUV will help MSIL create presence in the SUV segment. Its premium hatchback YRA will be pitted against the likes of Hyundai i20 & Honda Jazz. Hence strong product pipeline of new launches and facelifts of some of its existing models coupled with further enhancement of distribution network & production capacity will help MSIL grow faster than the industry. Margin expansion & strong earnings growth We prefer four-wheeler auto segment to the two-wheeler segment as low penetration levels still provide headroom for sustained growth. Strong operational performance in the two consecutive quarters has led us to raise our EBITDA margin estimates to 16% for both FY16E & FY17E. We believe earnings growth trajectory would be strong (~34% CAGR in FY15-17E). Thus, we ascribe a multiple of 22x its FY17E EPS of |221 and recommend Buy with target of |4,857.

FY16 started on a good note, with the growth for Q1FY16 at 6.2% as against 1.3% in Q1FY15. As per the management, MSIL’s growth is attributable to new models & increasing penetration. In Q1, MSIL’s market share increased by 2.8 percentage points to 46.8%. • For the overall industry, the petrol segment grew by 19% YoY, while the diesel segment declined by 6.8% YoY. MSIL’s diesel sales were flat on a YoY basis. For Q1FY16, the share of diesel vehicles sold stood at 44%. • According to the management, the margin expansion is led by softening commodity prices, operating leverage benefit & lower ad spend. The management indicated that the benefits of commodity prices & currency could come in the next quarter. • Exports revenues for Q1FY16 stood at | 1384 crore. The export volumes grew by 22% YoY to 35635 units, with some growth coming on the back of duty reduction in Sri Lanka & new launches • For the quarter, average discounts stood at | 16,018, against |15,116 in Q4FY15. • Direct and indirect import content combined currently stands at ~16% of sales while the royalty rate for Q1 came at ~5.6% against 5.4% in Q4. Increase in royalty rate was on account of exchange loss on royalty provisioning • MSIL has an aim to sell 2 mn vehicles in the next five years, while Suzuki has a plan to launch 20 new models in the same period. • MSIL’s AMT capacity has expanded from 4000 units/month to 8000 units/month & is expandable to 12000 units/month • On buyer segmentation, the management highlighted the fact that the first time car buyer class increased from ~43% in Q4FY15 to 46% in Q1FY16. The rural segment volume growth stood at 15% • MSIL intends to increase the share of long term investment instruments, post a change in taxation rules regarding FMPs. This will reduce the other income component. Also company has guided for a higher effective tax rate of 27% Page 3 Company Analysis Unique position of dominance in spite of competition… MSIL has maintained its market leadership despite the increase in competitive intensity. Despite ~18 players being in the fray fighting for the 2.5 million large market, MSIL has managed to hold ~45% market share. The financial performance has been strong over the past years with operating margins maintained at decent levels (over 10% in the recent past). On the business levers side, all factors range from cost of car ownership to demographics to new product launches led by S-Cross. Allied to this, on the financial levers side, better operating leverage and FX benefits are also in place to benefit MSIL. We expect revenue growth at ~16.4% CAGR in FY15-17E reaching ~| 67649 crore in FY17E. Margins are likely to remain on an uptrend and clock 16% in both FY16E & FY17E, as industry demand improves, leading to better operating leverage and also reduction in discounting levels. Also, increased traction in newer products in premium categories would lead to better ASPs and, consequently, better margins and is likely to aid profitability. We expect the bottomline to grow at ~34% CAGR in FY1517E and reach ~| 6670 crore in FY17E.

Suzuki is aiming to let MSIL grow as a low-cost brand to target markets such as Africa. MSIL already contributes ~45% to Suzuki’s global profits. As such, Suzuki’s strategy to make MSIL its global export hub for low priced products is logical. Currently, exports form ~9% of total sales for MSIL, with the major export oriented product being the A-Star. Going ahead, we have taken ~15% CAGR in FY15-17E in export volumes.

The market share was further lost on account of persistent labour troubles at Manesar in both FY12 and FY13, which halted production. However, with the fuel price fall and domestic fuel price deregulation, there has been a recovery in petrol cars.MSIL has since then increased its presence in terms of products as well as capacity in both the petrol as well as diesel space. Launches of successful products like Ertiga and Celerio also aided growth of market share in a challenging environment. MSIL has regained a lot of lost ground in terms of market share (YTD ~45% domestic). We expect MSIL to maintain >40% market share despite the improvement in competition and growth in the utility vehicle space in the coming years.

As the market leader, MSIL had also been forced to give incentives to ward off competition and retain market share. However, we believe the new products launches (which do not offer any discounts) & facelifts will lead to improved product mix that will effectively reduce the discount levels. Discount on small cars (Alto, Wagon R) is broadly linked to the broad macro environment. These discounts will reduce with the improving macro economy conditions. From the higher discount levels of |21,000 in Q3FY15, the same has substantially reduced to ~ |15,000 in Q4FY15 & | 16,000 in Q1FY16. We expect a reduction in average discounts from |19,625 in FY15 to |16,000 in both FY16E and FY17E.

We continue to remain bullish on the longer-term growth prospects of the car segment, especially MSIL, considering its dominant market share at ~45%. Strong operational performance in the two consecutive quarters has led us to raise our EBITDA margin estimates to 16% for both FY16E & FY17E.
