May 29th, 2009
Comments Off

Biju Samuel of Quant Broking said the Nifty had key support at 4100, it had turned around from there. He expected some profit booking around the 4500 levels. “Upside above the 4500 levels would depend on global cues. The Nifty is likely to hold 4,200-4,250 zone in the near-term. I would call it a bull market but not from a multiyear bull market perspective.”

May 29th, 2009
Comments Off

The much-awaited gross domestic product (GDP) growth number for the full year, FY2008-09, came in at 6.7% versus a projection of 7.1%. The GDP growth for the last financial year, FY08, stood at 9%. The numbers for the fourth quarter of FY09 also came in at 5.8% versus 5.3% last quarter and 8.8% a year ago.

While the official estimate for the full year stood at 7.1%, most experts said the forecast was a little on the higher side and that it would come near the 6.5% range.

A CNBC-TV18 poll conducted earlier saw the fourth quarter GDP number at 5.24%. For the full year, FY09, the poll saw GDP to be at 6.52% as against 9% last year.

Commenting on the numbers, Sachchidanand Shukla, Chief Economist at Enam Securities said that the GDP numbers were not totally unexpected. “What has saved the day is agricultural performance and government spending which cannot continue through the year,”

Buy HDIL; target of Rs 365: PINC Research

May 28th, 2009
Comments Off

PINC Research has recommended a buy rating on Housing Development and Infrastructure, (HDIL) with a price target of Rs 365 in its report dated May 25, 2009.

“Housing Development & Infrastructure Ltd’s (HDIL) Q4FY09 results were below our expectations. Its revenues declined 63.3% YoY to Rs 3.6 billion owing to a slowdown in the Mumbai property market. OPM for the period dipped by 3,158bps YoY to 57% owing to higher cost of construction & development (38% of net sales) incurred towards ongoing projects. Despite other income of Rs 309 million, net profits dropped by 91.3% YoY to Rs 619 million impacted by interest cost of Rs 1.4 billion.”

“We have estimated the NAV of HDIL’s projects (ongoing & proposed), including the SEZ land at Vasai/Virar at Rs 338/share. The airport project is expected to add another Rs 150/share, taking the company’s total NAV to Rs 487/share. Considering an up-tick in buyers’ response to its new offerings, infusion of equity, easing interest & debt repayment woes and an expected revival in the TDR market over the next few months, we upgrade our recommendation to ‘BUY’ on the stock, target Rs 365,” says PINC’s research report.
