Company is localising a lot of the parts that go into these EV components. In medium term, company expects margins in these EV products to be as good or better than company level margins

Q1 is typically the slowest Qtr for the company

All of company’s JVs have turned EBITDA positive wef Q1 FY 25 ( including their plants in Barcelona, Mexico, Romania )

Company’s new plant at Pune for making Cabin and Dye Castings to start commercial production by Sep 24. This segment of company’s business is growing rapidly. Hence this capex was urgently required to keep meeting the customer demands

The EV products that the company intends to commercialise this yr should give them 5-10 cr revenues this year. Ramp up in revenues is only expected wef FY 26

The high inventory levels in the system that exist in PVs these days is not the case with 2-Wheelers. The offtake and volume growth in 2 Wheelers has been much better

Company expects revenues from smart locks ( new product line ) to start flowing in from Oct, Nov 24. Company will start supplying Suzuki and Honda. Content per vehicle in case of smart locks is much higher ( each unit should cost @ around Rs 4-5k )

Net debt on books @ 550 cr vs 592 cr on 31 Mar 24. Aim to reduce debt to below 500 cr levels by end of FY 25

In Q1, there was a slowdown in construction equipment segment. From Q2 onwards ( as this segment picks up ) there should be better topline growth for the company

Capex lined up for FY 25 is aprox 250 cr. Capex intensity is likely to reduce wef FY 26

Aim to increase EBITDA margins to around 10.5 pc in FY 25 and 11 pc by end of FY 26

Company expects the number of 2 Wheelers with smart locks can be in double digits in terms of Mkt share over a 2 yr period

Sandhar’s Mkt share in 2 Wheeler locking system stands at 70 pc in the domestic mkt

32 pc of company’s revenues come from TVS, 19 pc from Heromotocorp, 8 pc from JCB. These are company’s top 3 customers. Other important customers contributing 4-5 pc of sales each include Honda, Bosch

Expect the smart locks EBITDA margins to be in line with the mechanical locks business ie @ 13-15 pc EBITDA levels. But the value of business per lock is expected to be 6X to 10X

Opinion : business momentum looks strong. Should result in good to great topline and bottomline growth

additionally – kotak bank pat has been increased from 7,200cr to 18,200cr in last 5 year (thats 20% cagr growth) and EPS 37.5 to 91.6 in 5 year.
P/E has been crashed to 40 to 18.9 in last 5 year
similarly, P/B has been also crashed from 5.1 to 2.7 times in 5 year
and Book Value has been increased from 264 to 654.

For me, in Bluechip companies we should only focus on valuations. Its better to not go in-deapt analysis specially for bluechip companies because management is far more experienced then us. and they have more skin in the game then us.

As per my analysis, Banks are going to see 13-15% credit growth in coming 3 years, and i believe kotak bank can give 16% cagr growth from here.
FY24A PAT – 18,200cr
FY27F PAT – 28,400cr roughly.
Current Mcap – 3,53,000 cr
Current P/E – 19
FY27 Forward P/E – 12.43

Hello,
Has anyone been tracking the company recently?
I wanted to know how the company margins are affected by freight costs.
Further, in terms of technicals, the company looks better.

Yes, you’re right. The method you mentioned is the correct way to read ROE, and I’m not suggesting that companies like Asian Paints and Pidilite don’t have high ROE in that sense. I’m just trying to paint a comparative picture of Garware’s seemingly depressed ROE. Ultimately, since these gains are added back to reserves, shareholders still have a claim over these profits.
