Senco Gold has significant re-rating scope. Buy for target price of ₹1600 (14% upside): Emkay
Senco offers the best brand accessibility vs peers in terms of product, price, and penetration in the eastern region. Senco leverages its multi-decadal relationship with karigars (in Kolkata) to offer relatively light-weight ornaments with a heavy look. This helps Senco to differentiate itself from players who offer heavier jewelry (higher grammage). Merchandise at stores is localized with focus on addressing the entire middle class of the local catchment through its light-weight jewelry

We initiate coverage on Stovekraft (SKL), the leading kitchen and home appliance player (brand Pigeon), with BUY and TP of Rs1,350/sh at 20x Sep-26E EV/EBITDA (56% upside). SKL is growing significantly ahead of peers (~15pps share-gain) on i) massive cost-leadership, led by deeply-entrenched manufacturing; ii) strong new product innovation capabilities and strategic ‘value for money’ positioning; and iii) improving branding/distribution expansion, including new-age channels (e-com, modern retail).
Bajaj Housing Finance will be among top-4 mortgage players in the medium term. Buy for target price of ₹210 (27% upside): Philip Capital
Bajaj Housing Finance Ltd (BHFL) was classified as an upper-layer NBFC as per scale-based regulations, and so it got listed within three years of this classification. We have worked out three scenarios, and taken a hold-co discount of 15% to be conservative, even though present tax considerations don’t mandate a hold-co discount. We have taken a 50% weightage for our base scenario, 40% for our bear scenario, and 10% for a bull scenario. In the bull case, we assumed a P/E multiple of 30x – c.20% lower than +1sd of BAF. We are using earnings multiple for the standalone entity, given it is a fast-churn, high-velocity, consumption-driven credit business. We are using price-to-book multiple for the housing finance entity as it’s a traditional lending business
Aadhar is a large affordable HFC (Rs211 bn of AUM in FY2024, 7% market share in the affordable segment) with a long track-record, well-diversified geographical presence and customer profile. Buy for target price of ₹550 (41% upside): Kotak Institutional Equities
We initiate coverage on Aadhar with a BUY rating and RGM-based FV of Rs550/share (41% upside). Aadhar stands out versus most affordable peers due to a larger balance sheet, longer vintage and superior RoEs. On the other hand, its loan growth (21% CAGR during FY2024-27E) is comparable more to mature housing finance companies than fast-growing smaller affordable HFCs.
