New reins, new reign!
Harnessing potential for a new harvest
The profitability of Indian PSUs, most of which were plagued with project delays,
policy paralysis and deteriorating balance sheet, is almost at half the FY04 levels.
However, we believe the worst is behind.
As Chief Minister of Gujarat, Mr Narendra Modi transformed a number of state PSUs.
As Prime Minister, we believe he could drive similar transformation in central PSUs.
We propose a ‘SECURE’ framework to turn around PSUs’ performance, but also
recognize that divestment too would be essential to further the nation’s development
agenda.
In this backdrop, we believe the likely winners among the listed PSUs would be SBI,
ONGC, BHEL, NTPC and BPCL.

PSUs’ performance deteriorated in the second half of the last decade. Over FY09-14,
their aggregate sales and PAT grew at just a third of the growth rates achieved during
FY04-09.
More than one-third (34%) of the CPSEs were loss-making in 2013 versus 27% in 2008.
However, profitability and growth have bottomed-out. This is getting reflected in both
consensus and our estimates for the next couple of years.

companies (OMCs)) is expected to register 4% growth compared with a 4% decline
in FY13. PSUs’ PAT growth is catching up with the rest of the market. MOSL

100%=INR1,350 b (net profit of profit-making central PSUs) 100%=(INR283 b) (net loss of loss- making central PSUs)
On BCG matrix, all resources, banks and capital goods PSUs figures as “stars” (high
market share in high growth sectors) indicating that they are doing well and offer
great opportunities. However, services-centric and light manufacturing related PSUs
figures as “question marks” (low market share in high growth sectors) signifying a
need to either revive or privatize/disinvest in such PSUs. Heavy manufacturing,
which includes railway components, defense, ship building, etc, is an exception.
These account for a large chunk of the current non-oil imports in India. Thus,
supporting this segment through opening up of the FDI in key areas (like defense,
railways, etc) is critical. We believe that PSUs stand to benefit given the already
established infrastructure in several cases, which can be scaled up / modernized
quickly.

Restructure or retire?
Expect a mix of both; proposing a ‘SECURE’ framework for revival
With the revival of Gujarat PSUs and the man behind it, Mr Narendra Modi now at
the center, the debate has opened on whether the government’s stake in Indian
PSUs would be divested or would the government try to revive and restructure PSUs
to make them viable business entities. We expect the government to follow a dual
policy – keep the PSUs of strategic and social importance but restructure them, and
increase divestment in others (or even privatize them).

During FY08-12, India’s disinvestment proceeds accounted for just ~1% of global
privatization revenues. This peaked in FY11 (5.3%), primarily driven by 50%
reduction in global privatization revenues in 2011 due to global financial
retrenchment prompted by eco-political crises in Europe and the US.

The profitability of Indian PSUs, most of which were plagued with project delays,
policy paralysis and high debt, is almost at half the FY04 levels.
However, we believe the worst is behind and the new government’s policy actions
could lead to a revival in their fortunes.
In this backdrop, we identify likely winners among the listed PSUs.

Even in sectors like Mining and Utilities, where PSUs are market leaders, valuations
are lower than private peers, as reported profitability is not a reflection of true
business profitability, in our view. We expect the new government to focus on
improvement in PSUs’ operations and grant greater autonomy to their Boards of
Management. This could help revive their return ratios and lead to re-rating.
We believe that investors should not use the prevailing market valuation of a PSU as
a benchmark. Instead, the focus should be on discovery of the true value of the
underlying business, which will be achieved with reduction in government control.
Increasing gap between PSUs and market P/E … … so is the case with P/B

ONGC
Company description
ONGC, a Fortune 500 company, is an eminent exploration and production (E&P)
company in India. With over 300 discoveries, it has established in-place reserves of
6.9b ton of oil equivalent (btoe), with ultimate reserves of 2.4btoe. It currently
accounts for ~68% of India's domestic oil and gas production. Through its 100%
subsidiary ONGC Videsh Limited (OVL), it has equity investments in E&P blocks in 16
countries. Downstream presence is marked through its subsidiary (71.6% stake),
MRPL.
Disinvestment timeline
With government stake at 63%, we believe the medium term focus of the
government with respect to ONGC will be towards improving the profitability.
Further divestment, in our view would be after 2-3 years, when the expected
profitability increase is achieved.

NTPC
Company description
NTPC is the largest power generator in India with Installed capacity stands at
43.1GW and contribute ~30% of generation of the electricity in India. This includes
17 coal based and 7 gas based stations, located across the country. In addition under
JVs, 7 stations are coal based & another station uses naptha/LNG as fuel and 7
renewable energy projects.
NTPC ranked 384th in the ‘2013, Forbes Global 2000’ ranking of the World’s biggest
companies. NTPC became a “Maharatna” company in May, 2010, one of the only
four companies to be awarded this status. The company has set a target to have an
installed power generating capacity of 128GW by the year 2032. It aims to add
14GW in 12th plan v/s ~9GW addition in 11th plan period. It has also ventured into
related areas like coal mining, distribution, transmission, and gas exploration.
Disinvestment timeline
With government stake at 75%, we believe the medium term focus of the
government with respect to NTPC will be towards improving the profitability.
Further divestment, in our view would be after 2-3 years, when the expected
profitability increase is achieved.

Coal India
Company description
Coal India Limited (CIL) is a leading public sector undertaking engaged into coal
mining in India and is working on establishing its footprint globally through
MoUs/acquisition route. CIL operates through its 9 wholly owned subsidiaries, of
which 1 subsidiary is engaged in exploration and feasibility study analysis. CIL has
total resources of 64.3b tonnes and proved reserves of 52.4b tonnes, of which
extractable reserves stand at 21.7b tonnes.
Disinvestment timeline
With government stake at 90%, there is a fair possibility of offer for sale. However,
given contentious issues of lower volume growth and cost push, we believe the near
term focus would be to first put COAL on growth path. This will also lead to
improved sentiments and valuation to conduct OFS.

Company description
Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL), a public sector undertaking (PSU), is the largest
steel producer in India, with ~20% market share. Its current capacity of 13mtpa is
vertically integrated from mines to finished steel and is spread across four plants in
the mineral-rich belt of Chhattisgarh, Orissa and Jharkhand. SAIL is totally self-
sufficient in iron ore (captive mines). However, it has to depend on purchase of
coking coal and a large share is imported. It has a wide range of products and is a
large producer of special steel.
Disinvestment timeline
With the Government’s stake at 80%, we believe its near term focus with respect to
SAIL will be to improve profitability. Further divestment will depend on market
conditions.

Company description
NMDC is India's largest iron ore producer, with a capacity of 36mtpa. It produces
~30-32mtpa of iron ore from four mining complexes in Chhattisgarh and Karnataka.
In addition to its iron ore operations, NMDC has a diamond mine at Panna (Madhya
Pradesh) and owns a 10.5mw wind power plant in Karnataka. In July 2010, Sponge
Iron India, which has a small sponge iron capacity of 60ktpa, was merged with
NMDC. It is investing INR155b over the next five years to expand the iron ore
production to 50mtpa and forward integrate by setting up a 3mpta steel plant in
Chhattisgarh and 1.2mtpa pellet plant in Karnataka.
Disinvestment timeline
With Government’s stake at 80%, we believe its near term focus with respect to
NMDC will be to increase production and address logistic bottlenecks. Further
divestment will depend on market condition.

Company description
PGCIL is a central transmission utility (CTU) with a mini-navratna status, which owns
and operates most of India's interstate and inter-regional power transmission
system. It has been identified as a nodal agency by the Government to set up inter-
regional transmission capacity in India.
Disinvestment timeline
With government stake at 58%, we believe that offer for sale possibility is limited;
more so given that PGCIL may need growth capital depending on the business
outlook.
