MARKET COMMENT | Vinod Nair, Head of Research at Geojit Financial services

"Market was hesitant to raise its optimism further as profit booking was triggered across the banking sector post the announcement of the stimulus. The market was waiting for the package, Atmanirbhar Bharat 3.0 was announced today which was good enough and nicely factored in the rising market. FM’s new measures will have a positive impact on developers and home buyers due to tax reliefs and will ensure demand for housing which is on a strong recovery stage. Subsidy announcement of Rs 65,000 crore for fertilisers is likely to help rural and agricultural sectors. Expansion of Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme to additional 10 sectors will boost domestic manufacturing, in the long-term."

RATING: HOLD | TARGET PRICE: Rs 316 

While NIMs stood steady this quarter, the same do not stand sustainable for FY21 as balance transfer cases to rise in light of high competitive intensities. We believe FY23 should witness revival (loan growth 15%+, NIMs 2%+ and NPAs 2.5%; current estimate 3.5%). As macro tailwinds signal beginning of bottoming out of painful home finance cycle, we upgrade LICHF to HOLD and tweak valuation multiple to 0.9x PABV Sep’22 estimates arriving at price target of Rs 316 (earlier Rs 282).
