Fans, Lighting and Luminaires on a steady growth trajectory


BJE is a leading player in fans, lighting and luminaires segments. Fans contribute
24%, Lighting 18% and Luminaires 14% to BJE’s Consumer-facing business
revenues. BJE has a 17% share in the INR35b organized Fans market in India, an
8% market share in the INR50b organized Lighting market and a 5% market
share in the INR25b organized Luminaires market in India. To capture the
premium end of the market, BJE has international tie-ups with Chinese
appliances major Midea (USD11b in revenues) to sell Fans, and with Walt Disney
for the sale and marketing of children’s fans using Disney characters and
designs. Going forward, BJE is focusing on new launches in the energy efficient
and premium category, which should further help in driving market share gains
and margins. Similarly, in the Lighting segment, BJE has witnessed shift in favor
of power saving, and high margin CFL lamps over the last few years, with
contribution rising from 7% in FY05 to 30% in FY12 and 50% currently. We
expect this proportion to improve further aiding margin accretion (CFL margins
stand at ~10% as against 7% margins reported by lighting division).

08/08/2022, 17:20 Bajaj Electricals: Re-inspiring trust– Detailed Report

E&P business set for strong turnaround


Since FY11, BJE’s E&P business has been suffering. Slowdown in the Power
sector coupled with execution slippages led to revenue de-growth and decline in
EBIT margin from +10.5% in FY10 to -17.6% in FY13. BJE has taken a number of
steps in the last 12 months to revive the performance of the E&P division. Unlike
earlier, the division now reports to the central finance team, resulting in more
prudent supervision. The top management has been revamped, with industry
veteran, Mr Rakesh Markhedkar replacing internally-groomed Mr Lalit Mehta as
Business Head. The new management has implemented a strict project
monitoring process, which has ensured better timeliness in execution. We
expect the E&P business to post a strong turnaround in FY15, with revenues
growing at a CAGR of 13% over FY14-16 and EBIT margin expanding to +5%.

Earnings to quadruple over FY14-16


We expect BJE’s consolidated earnings to quadruple from INR587m to
INR2,469m over FY14-16 on the back of turnaround in the E&P division. We
expect revenues to post 14% CAGR, with 460bp accretion in EBITDA margin from
3.9% to 8.4%. Working capital should improve from 62 days to 44 days. We
expect substantial improvement in return ratios (RoCE / RoE) from 17.9%/7.9%
to 43.4%/24.5%.

Initiating coverage with Buy rating and price target of INR370


Over the last three years, the dismal performance of the E&P division has
clouded BJE’s robust underlying consumer franchise. Expected turnaround of
the E&P business will be a key re-rating catalyst. BJE is trading at 11.3x FY16E
earnings as against Havell’s 17.8x FY16E earnings. This steep discount should
narrow in our view as BJE delivers on the E&P turnaround. We value BJE at 15x
FY16E EPS of INR24.8 and arrive at a target price of INR370. We initiate
coverage with a Buy rating.

Enviable consumer franchise


75-year history; leader in Small Appliances

 With over 75 years of history, the Bajaj brand enjoys mass awareness, which helps BJE
to thrive with lower ad spends than peers. It is a market leader in Small Appliances,
selling 3.5m Irons, 1.6m Mixer Grinders and ~600k Water Heaters every year.
 It has a wide distribution reach, with over 4,100 dealers and a 400k strong retail
network for Lighting, 86k dealers for Fans and 45k dealers for Appliances across India.
 Manufacturing is entirely outsourced to 80 vendors across India, leaving the
management free to focus on innovation, brand building and distribution.
 With an asset-light business model, coupled with huge product and distribution
presence, we believe BJE is well placed to ride the increasing penetration of Small
Appliances and Luminaires.
 BJE is largely a consumer franchise deriving 80% of its revenues and its entire profits
from B2C businesses. E&P contributes 20% to revenues and has been a drag on
profitability.

Robust distribution network, new initiatives to ensure better reach


BJE has a pan-India presence through a strong network of 2,200+ distributors and
4,100+ dealers. BJE has leveraged its brand to create a huge retail network of 45k
for Appliances, 86k for Fans and over 400k for Lighting across India.

armed salesmen’. They will be responsible for managing each distribution region
allotted to them by personally visiting all stores (irrespective of whether they stock
BJE products or not) on a weekly basis. BJE is focusing on driving secondary sales
rather than primary sales. Further, inventory will be replenished on auto basis to
make sure that inventory at the distributor level is minimal (targeting 15 days of
inventory as against 45 days currently), ensuring higher capital churn for
distributors, reflected in 3x Return on Investment (ROI) for them.

 BJE has an on-time payment policy to vendors
 BJE extends trade advances to vendors to meet payments towards raw materials
 BJE has lent additional financial support to vendors (which enhances the trust
factor in the partnership) recognizing their long-term development potential.
 BJE employs centralized sourcing for vendors, which results in substantial
savings (100-150bp) as a result of economies of scale, better negotiation power
in pricing and payment terms

E&P business set for strong turnaround


Expect EBIT margin to expand from -18% in FY13 to +5% in FY16

 Since FY11, BJE’s E&P business has been suffering. Slowdown in the Power sector,
aggressive-bidding coupled with execution slippages led to revenue de-growth and
decline in EBIT margin from +10.5% in FY10 to -17.6% in FY13.
 BJE has taken key steps like centralization of financial decision making and change in
management to revive the performance of the E&P division
 We expect the E&P business to post a strong turnaround in FY15, with revenues
growing at a CAGR of 13% over FY14-16 and EBIT margin expanding to +5% in FY16.

We highlight below key reasons why E&P division took a hit

Bidding irrationality and  Bidding irrationality


lack of effective Post FY10, as the industry slowed down, competition increased. However, BJE’s E&P
monitoring key reasons division continued to bid aggressively. The division did not report to the CFO or the
for deterioration in E&P central finance team. The consequent lack of financial supervision by the top
performance management allowed the aggressive bidding to continue unchecked.

 Lack of effective monitoring mechanisms


Earlier, Power Grid had a payment mechanism whereby it cleared invoices based on
the material brought to the site. BJE and other industry players resorted to dumping
key and costly material (which was not even required upfront; in some cases,
required after a year) to the site, raising and encashing invoices even when project
execution had hardly commenced. Since they got most of their money upfront,
there was limited incentive to complete projects on time, which eventually resulted
in time delays. At the same time, the material on site was subject to
pilferage/damages, which resulted in significant cost overruns.

Multiple structural initiatives to revive E&P business


Increased financial BJE has taken a number of steps in the last 12 months to revive the performance of
supervision, change in top the E&P division.
management and stricter
focus on execution to  Increase in financial supervision
ensure E&P turnaround To curb aggressive bidding, BJE has now involved (effective July 2013) its central
finance team in the E&P division as well. The CFO is now empowered not to release
funds if there are any major deviations. For instance, if the norm is of having only
three months of inventory and if the inventory at the site has breached this, then
the CFO is empowered not to release funds. We believe centralization of financial
matters will result in more prudent supervision, reducing chances of aggressive
bidding / increase in working capital.

 Change in top management


Top management of the E&P division has been revamped. In July 2013, Mr Rakesh
Markhedkar replaced Mr Lalit Mehta as Head of the E&P Business. Mr Markhedkar
has an Engineering degree from BITS Pilani and is an IIM Bangalore alumnus. He has
rich work experience, having worked with L&T in the EPC business (from July 1990
to August 2003), followed by successful stints with EMCO and KEI Industries. While
Mr Mehta was an internal expert, who started his career as an Intern with BJE and
rose to senior levels, Mr Markhedkar brings years of relevant industry experience.

 Strict focus on execution


The new management has implemented a strict monitoring process, whereby
execution at all sites is monitored on a daily basis through FCCM software. The E&P

division now prepares detailed MIS reports, mapping progress on various aspects
like inventory levels at the site, actual v/s targeted progress on execution at the site,
progress on getting financial closure (as payment can be realized only once financial
closure is done), etc. This has ensured better timeliness in execution. The
management highlights that most new projects are now running ahead of schedule
by 7-8 months. In fact, Power Grid recently gave an award to BJE for on-time project
completion, testifying the marked improvement in timelines followed by the
company.

 Tightening in pre-qualification norms by Power Grid has improved outlook


Power Grid (PWGR) has tightened bidding norms over the past 2 years to weed out
irrational bids. This has led to moderation in competitive intensity in the power
transmission orders (6-7 bidders per tender now bid and difference between L1 and
L2 is hardly 1-2% currently, reduction in total number of players bidding for PWGR
orders from 50 in FY12 to 19 in FY13), leading to better margins and higher market
share amongst existing players. Further, PWGR has changed the payment
mechanism. Earlier full payment used to be made for materials brought to the site,
along with the contractor’s embedded profit margin. Now only 60-65% of bills
pertaining to materials brought on site are cleared with the balance 40-35% being
linked to final execution. PWGR’s changes have led to filtering; with weaker players
now choosing to opt out.

Focus is on site closures; order book stands at INR21b


The E&P division has an order book of INR21b, which is expected to be executed
over the next two years. Order book is largely for TLT and Special Projects, as these
two segments have long gestation periods (2-2.5 years order execution cycle), while
High Mast which accounts for 45% of E&P revenues is a low gestation business (3-
month execution life cycle).

The management is focused on reducing the number of active sites and will be
closing 41 sites during FY14. At any given point in time, the number of active sites
will not exceed 40 as per the targets the management has set for itself. This, in our
view, will enable better monitoring mechanisms, resulting in better execution
quality.

 Currency risk
BJE’s import content (includes 40% of Morphy Richards, 20% of Appliances, 10%
each of Lighting and Fans) contributes ~15% of its revenues. INR depreciation

Industry overview
Demographics changes, rising incomes to create demand for appliances
The home appliances market in India will see significant growth due to lower
penetration, increasing incomes, and growing urbanization. The need for comfort
and convenience in urban households, as both partners work and will result in
change in perception of appliances from luxury to necessity, leading to rapid growth
in home appliance market.

Another major growth driver will be the growing middle class in India. According to
a McKinsey Global Institute (MGI) 2010 report, India’s fast growing cities will drive a
four-fold increase in the country’s per capita income over 2008 and 2030. Also, the
number of middle class households (earning between INR200k and INR1m a year)
will increase more than fourfold nationwide from 32m to 147m in 2030. With the
rising disposable income (per capita disposable income of the urban segment is
expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% over 2008-2030), consumer discretionary
expenditure is also likely to increase significantly. Rising disposable income would
provide more room for expenditure on discretionary items.

Consuming class expected to expand from 50% to 85% over FY10-30

Key factors which will lead to double-digit growth in small appliances market
include:
 Rise in number of nuclear families, with reduction in average household size
(has reduced from 5.6 in 1991 to 4.9 currently).
 Rise in per capita income of middle class Indian households will lead to
consumer upgrading to branded products.
 Higher growth (25 -30% pa) in under -penetrated rural market will help drive
overall growth momentum.
 Increasing affordability and improving educational levels will lead to reduction in
