IIFL has recommended a buy rating on Jaiprakash Associates with a target price of Rs 250 in its August 24, 2009 research report.

“Jaiprakash Associates is well set to be among the top five players in power, cement and real estate in India. Doubling of cement capacity in three years, launch of 13m sq ft residential projects in two years and expeditious award of thermal power projects to established E&C players lend credibility to the group’s ambitious expansion plans. Treasury stocks in the parent company and consolidation of all power assets under the listed subsidiary (Jaiprakash Hydropower Limited, or JHPL) provide funding flexibility. More than doubling of cement volumes over FY09-11 and peak construction at captive projects, we estimate, should yield 44% earnings CAGR over FY09-11, similar to growth rates achieved over FY05-09. We initiate with ‘BUY’ and an SOTP-based target price of Rs 250 per share. At our target price, the standalone entity would be valued at P/E of 8.4x FY10ii and 6.4x FY11ii,” says IIFL’s research report.

IIFL has recommended an add rating on Sterlite Industries with a 12-month price target of Rs 684 in its report dated August 20, 2009.

“Sterlite has raised its bid for ASARCO’s acquisition with the upfront cash component now at USD 2.1 billion along with an unchanged USD 207 million in staggered note payments. This bid would be value-neutral at long-term copper prices of USD 4,500/tonne. Current copper price is at USD 6,100/tonne, thereby leaving headroom for further increase in the bid-amount. ASARCO falls within the highest quartile in terms of cost of production. This acquisition would be a departure from the company’s strategy of being cost leader in all its businesses. Sterlite is already executing a number growth projects in India with potential of further expanding its capacity in power business which in our view could be more value accretive as compared to ASARCO’s acquisition. Add Sterlite Industries, with 12-month price target of Rs 684,” says IIFL’s report

IIFL has recommended an add rating on HDFC in its report dated August 20, 2009.

“Over the past few years, HDFC has transformed itself from a pure mortgage player to a financial services conglomerate that derives 44% of its value from non-mortgage businesses. HDFC has three distinct strengths that distinguish it from an average bank or NBFC. Firstly, it has a low-cost and diversified funding base. Its AAA credit rating and familiarity amongst retail depositors allow it to borrow at very competitive rates. Secondly, its operating costs are by far the lowest amongst all financial intermediaries in India and perhaps globally. And finally, its credit costs have consistently remained low and are also the lowest in the industry. Growth prospects remain bright for all businesses and investors can trust HDFC for flawless execution. This, in our view, justifies the stock’s premium valuation of 4.0x FY11ii P/B,” says IIFL’s report.

IIFL has maintained its add rating on Ambuja Cements with a target price of Rs 110 in its August 13, 2009 research report.

“We reiterate our positive view on Ambuja Cements (ACL), post our meeting with the management. The company’s 2.2mtpa Bhatapara clinker expansion is nearing completion and is likely to be commissioned in September 2009. Post stabilisation of this unit in 1QCY10, ACL will stop buying clinker for its Farakka unit. High-cost coal inventory was exhausted in 2QCY09 and ACL’s average price of imported coal is likely to be 25% lower in 3QCY09 compared to 2QCY09 (40% of the coal ACL uses is imported).”
